“…As the yarn count becomes coarser, fabric thickness increases so air permeability decreased. The results of the present study support the findings of previous studies [5][6]. The interloping structured of knitted denim allows more air to pass through the fabric.…”

The study was aimed to develop a knitted denim fabric and investigate its properties. The said fabric has similar visualappearance to the woven denim fabric, offering additional stretch properties. The twill effect was produced on circularknitting machine using cross terry structures. Woven denim fabric was also produced to compare its properties withknitted denim. The Physical and comfort properties of these fabrics like air permeability, thermal resistance and moisturemanagement, were investigated. Experimental investigation of serviceability i.e Pilling was also carried out. The purposeof study is to compare both woven and knitted denim fabric properties.

“…In this test, water vapor transfer through the fabrics is measured. The presence of pores in fibers, yarns, and fabric structures facilitates the passage of water vapor . From Figure b, in the same structure A, it can be observed that fabrics Ab4, Ae5, and Af6, which have a yarn combination of 55.5dtex/24f+55.5dtex/216f, exhibit higher overall moisture permeability compared to fabrics Aa1, Aa2, and Aa3.…”

This can be attributed to the fact that the hydrophilicity of 55.5dtex/216f ultrafine polyester is weaker than that of 93.3dtex/384f ultrafine polyester.…”

This study presents the development and investigation of a 3D double-sided fabric with a concave−convex lattice appearance created using advanced knitting technology. Nine distinct 3D knitted fabric samples were meticulously designed to explore the effects of fabric concavity, convexity, and raw materials on the thermal-moisture comfort of the textiles. Experimental analyses were conducted to assess various parameters including moisture permeability, air permeability, moisture management, evaporation, and thermal comfort performance. Additionally, theoretical models were employed to predict the capillary pressure generated by the fabric. The findings reveal that the moisture absorption capability of the yarn significantly influences the moisture vapor penetration and water evaporation of the fabric. Moreover, the type of yarn, such as staple fiber yarn, directly affects the heat dissipation performance of the textile. Structural variations were also considered, and it was observed that fabrics exhibiting pronounced concave and convex shrinkage patterns facilitate unidirectional liquid transportation and prevent reverse osmosis. However, these structures adversely affect moisture permeability, breathability, and water evaporation. Furthermore, theoretical model calculations demonstrate the substantial influence of the capillary pressure on moisture conductivity. This innovative approach provides valuable insights for the development of textiles with superior sweat management capabilities as well as clothing that maximizes personal comfort across multiple application scenarios.

“…After the orthogonal experiment, suitable knitting structure and yarn arrangement (locknitstructure; GB1 is PET, GB2 is PBT) were determined to further study the effect of knittingparameter on elastic elongation. Six different drawing densities set on machine (16,18,20,22,24 and 26 CPC) were selected to examine its effect on the elastic elongation under 100N. Consequently, the yarn run-in speed were varied according to the drawing density set,whilekeeping the yarn tension at 3-6.3 cN.…”

This study investigated the elastic elongation and elastic recovery of the elastic warp knittedfabric made of PET( polyethylene terephthalate) and PBT(polybutylene terephthalate) filament. Using 50/24F PET and 50D/24F PBT in two threadingbars, the tricot, locknit and satin warp knitted fabrics were produced on the E28 tricot warpknitting machine. The knitting parameters influencing the elastic elongation under 100N wereanalyzed in terms of fabric structure, yarn run-in speed and drawing density set on machine.Besides, dyeing temperature and heat setting temperature/time were also examined in order toretain proper elastic elongation and elastic recovery. The relationship between elastic elongationand knitting parameter and finishing parameter were analyzed. Finally, the elastic recovery ofPET/PBT warp knitted fabric was examined to demonstrate the elastic property of final finishedfabric. This study could help us to further exploit the use of PET/PBT warp knitted fabric in thedevelopment of elastic garment in future.
