Most of UV protection textiles are made of chemical fibers, and a large part of them have poor air permeability and moisture permeability, which influences the wearing comfort. This work blended polyester and linen to produce a new kind of knitted fabric and tested the fabric structures, air permeability, moisture permeability and UV value. Excel and SPSS were used to compare the properties of new knitted fabrics and find out the relationships between the constructional parameters and properties. The results indicated that there are regression equations between constructional parameters and properties and got a new kind of UV protection fabric with good air permeability and moisture permeability.

The present study deals with the optimization of multiple quality parameters of single jersey and 1×1 rib knitted fabrics using the desirability function approach. Comfort properties such as air permeability, thermal conductivity and safety properties such as UV protection are combined to yield an ‘overall desirability’ varying from zero to one. The overall desirability has been maximized versus target values for air permeability, thermal conductivity and UV resistance. Experimental validation confirms that the proposed method can be used to design a knitted fabric with desired comfort and UV resistance characteristics.

Abstract Knitted fabrics have excellent comfort properties because of their typical porous structure. Different comfort properties of knitted fabrics such as air permeability, thermal absorptivity, and thermal conductivity depend on the properties of raw material and knitting parameters. In this paper, an investigation was done to observe the effect of yarn count, loop length, knitting speed, and yarn input tension in the presence of two uncontrollable noise factors on selected comfort properties of single jersey and 1×1 rib knitted fabrics using the Taguchi experimental design. The results show that yarn count and loop length have significant influence on the thermo-physiological comfort properties of knitted fabrics.

This paper has investigated the porosity of knitted fabrics using digital imaging techniques. A number of different methods have been proposed to determine the porosity of knitted fabrics, which include digital imaging, geometrical modeling, and air permeability. Digital imaging is an adequate technique to determine the porosity of high-porosity fabrics. In this work, eight types of knitted structures with eight different stitch lengths were produced on a flat-bed knitting machine. Porosity was determined using digital imaging techniques based on the method of threshold and pixel count, using a computer program developed for this work. The study consisted also of validating the results by including the data from two tested samples—from each set of knits throughout the use of regression equations which demonstrated that there is good correlation between the black mask and white mask images.

Warp Knitted Fabric

In recent years, as improvement of human living life, people begin to focus on themselves health. It is certain that bamboo charcoal has many properties, including water purification, deodorization, anion release and far-infrared ray radiation. This study aims to prepare PET/BC warp-knitted fabric composed of polyester yarn (PET) as warp yarn and bamboo charcoal polyamine yarn (BC) as weft yarn using Velcro Crochet Machine. Afterwards, air permeability, elastic resilience and far-infrared ray emissivity of resulting knitted fabric were discussed by changing weft yarn type. Result shows that, for knitted fabrics, weft yarn type cannot affect the elastic resilience; yet PET weft yarn makes air permeability decreasing.

Weft Knitted Fabric

The fact that weft knitted fabrics has a stretchable, 3D, porous and interlocking structure makes them unique when manufactured from high performance fibers. Knitted fabrics with different architectures exhibit different properties. Different loop forms like tuck and skip stitches with various loop lengths reveal different physical and mechanical properties. Literature review indicated that wisely arrangement of tuck stitches within the pattern repeat alter the weft-knitted fabric structure from natural and synthetic fibers. Therefore, we studied the effect of number and location of tuck stiches on air permeability of weft-knitted fabrics from glass yarn. Single-bed, flat weft knitting machine was used to knit fabrics with different architectures from three-ply glass yarn. The nominal single-end count of used E-glass yarn was 136 tex. It is anticipated that the number and location of tuck stitches within knit pattern effect physical and air permeability properties of weft-knitted fabrics from glass yarn.

The use of a new generation chemical fibers with various functional additives offers new possibilities for the development of advanced (multi)functional textile products. Such compounds as phase change materials (PCMs), metals (like cooper, silver), also natural or chemical insect repellents, FIR emitting ceramic particles and etc. incorporated into fibres’ structure are essential for development of knitted fabrics directly contacting to the skin with effective thermoregulation and such protective properties as: antimicrobial, antistatic, repellence against blood sucking insects. The main parts of socks investigated were knitted in plain plated single jersey pattern. The 3-ply twisted yarns of new structures were used in the outer layer of socks. Yarns were made by using single yarns with PCMs, insect repellent permethrin, ceramic and silver additives containing fibres (Cell Solution® Clima, Cell Solution® Protection, Resistex® Silver). The inner layer of socks was made of polyester (PES) 3-ply twisted yarns with different number of filaments resulted in different structures of socks’ fabric. Based on all obtained thermoregulating and protective characteristics of investigated different knitted fabric structures of socks, the optimal knitted socks were selected. The obtained results of investigations are significant for the development of other knitted fabrics worn next to the skin.

This paper deals with thermo-physiological and sensorial comfort properties of knitted fabric samples manufactured from standard polyester (PET) and Coolmax (multi-lobal PET fiber) yarn by The Lycra Company, Wilmington, DE/USA. 18 knitted fabric samples were prepared by using PET and Coolmax. These samples were tested for qmax property related to warm/cool feeling, water-vapor transmission rate and air permeability. The results were analyzed statistically, and it was shown that fabric material used yarn to manufacture knitted samples, i.e. PET and Coolmax, has a significant effect on qmax, water-vapor transmission rate and air permeability of knitted fabric samples used in this study.
