THERMAL COMFORT OF NEW GENERATION FLEECE FABRICS IN DRY AND WET STATE
Original language description
In recent time fleece fabrics are being increasingly used for insulating layer in three-layer system of thermoactive clothing. This type of clothing should insure the thermal comfort in all weather conditions and regardless of the activity of wearer. Thermal conductivity and thermal resistance are the features which influence on thermal comfort of garments. Clothing often is getting wet (sweat, humid environment) which can significantly affect the thermal properties, while most of the testing methods performs measurements only in the dry state. Therefore, in the paper were presented the investigation of thermal properties in dry, normal and wet state of the different kinds of fleece fabrics. Furthermore, the water absorption of the tested fleeces has also been determined. The presented researches proved that wet clothing significant loses thermal comfort. This phenomenon is exacerbated with increasing moisture content of material and depends on the structure and the filling of test materials.
