The wetting behavior of a hydrophobic rough surface is investigated on a surface fabricated
by applying low surface tension materials such as silicone or fluoropolymer to polyester …

This study examined the moisture vapor permeability and thermal wear comfort of
ecofriendly fiber-embedded woven fabrics in terms of the yarn structure and the constituent …

Natural material-based nanofiber air filters promise to minimize any adverse impacts on the
environment after use, but the nanofiber structure causes poor airflow performance, ie high …

This paper aims to investigate vertical wicking properties of polyester fabric based on
change in sample direction and change in tension. Also experimental results are compared …

Alkaline hydrolysis is one of the most classic fiber finishing methods, however, its potential
as tuning surface superhydrophobicity in mass scale has not been studied much. In this …

The aim of this study was to develop methodologies and experimental procedures to
determine textile parameters required in numerical approaches of heat and mass transfer …

This study examined the water repellency (WR), waterproof, and water vapor permeability
(WVP) characteristics of twelve types of laminated and coated woven fabrics for outdoor …

Moisture transport and/or storage in clothes plays a major role on the comfort or discomfort
they procure due to the resulting wetness or heat loss along the skin. Our current knowledge …

In this paper, hydrophilic cotton (CO) yarn and hydrophobic cross-section polyester (PET)
filaments were used to prepare single-layer interwoven fabrics (CO/PET fabrics) with plain …

Purpose The liquid water and water vapour transfer properties of fabrics play an important
and decisive role in determining thermal comfort properties of clothing systems. The purpose …
