Abstract

Availability, simplicity of processing, biodegradability, sustainability, and compatibility with human skin in terms of moisture management and temperature regulation, cellulosic fibers are preferred for clothing. In this study four (04) different cellulosic yarns (cotton, bamboo, viscose, and tencel) and two weave designs (1/1 plain and 2/2 warp rib) were used to develop eight (08) woven fabrics with equal thread densities, and their volume porosity %, air permeability, thermal resistance, water vapor permeability index, and moisture management properties were compared. The results showed that tencel fabrics showed the highest water vapor permeability index and overall moisture management capability (OMMC) values, whereas cotton fabrics had the highest values of volume porosity %, air permeability, and thermal resistance. Furthermore, the 2/2 warp rib weave design showed higher values of volume porosity %, air permeability, and thermal resistance in comparison with 1/1 plain woven fabrics, while the water vapor permeability index and OMMC values were higher in 1/1 plain woven fabrics. Moreover, the statistical significance of both factors (cellulose material and weave design) on different results was also analyzed. 摘 要 在水分管理和温度调节方面, 纤维素纤维的可用性、加工简单性、生物降 解性、可持续性和与人体皮肤的兼容性是服装的首选. 在这项研究中, 使用 四(04)种不同的纤维素纱线(棉、竹、粘胶和天丝)和两种组织设计 (1/1平纹和2/2经纹)开发了八(08)种具有相同线密度的机织物, 并比 较了它们的体积孔隙率%、透气性、耐热性、水蒸气渗透指数和水分管理 性能. 结果表明, 天丝织物的水蒸气渗透指数和整体水分管理能力 (OMMC)值最高, 而棉织物的体积孔隙率%、透气性和耐热性值最高. 此 外, 与1/1平纹织物相比, 2/2经肋组织设计显示出更高的体积孔隙率%、透 气性和热阻值, 而1/1平纹机织物的水蒸气渗透指数和OMMC值更高. 此外, 还分析了两个因素(纤维素材料和织物设计)对不同结果的统计意义.
