| Abstract: | The effect of
sheath fibre proportion, fibre fineness, and yarn fineness on physiological comfort
related properties such as air permeability, water vapour permeability and
thermal conductivity of Dref-III friction-spun yarn fabrics has been studied
with an objective to analyse the feasibility of modified yarns for apparel end
use. Samples have been prepared using polyester filament fibre as core, viscose
staple fibre as secondary core and water soluble polyvinyl alcohol as sheath.
It is observed that the structural modification of yarn influences the comfort
related properties, effecting the vapour transmission behavior. |
