Abstract: |
This paper regarded
the three kinds of linen fabrics and clothing of unmodified and modified treatment
as the research objects, measuring the fabric physical properties, doing the
Subjective experiment and questionnaire survey. Physical properties test
included water absorption, air permeability and moisture permeability; Wearing
experiment was to determine the change of temperature and humidity on human
body surface in a certain temperature- humidity condition and the state of
motion, at the same time investigating the subjects about thermal- humidity
comfort in a form of questionnaire survey. The experimental results show that
modified flax fabric enhances the moisture absorption and
moisture-penetrability, and weakens the permeability. Subjects of Wearing
modified fabrics sense that the feeling of moist, stuffiness, clinginess and tickling
is abating after exercise, showing that the permeability about thermal and
humidity has been improved.
