- ItemEffect of moisture content on thermophysiological properties of terry knitted socks followed by thermal resistance comparison among different skin models(Fiber Society, 2018) Mansoor, Tariq; Hes, Luboš; Bajzík, Vladimír; Skenderi, ZenunSocks comfort has great significance in our daily life. This significance even increased when we underwent a work of low or high activity. It causes the sweating of our body with different rates. In this study, terry socks with differential fibre composition were produced on the same knitting machine with homogeneous yarn linear densities and wetted to a saturated level. Then after successive intervals of conditioning, the socks are characterized by thermal resistance, thermal absorbitivity and relative cooling effect in dry and wet states. Hydrophobic have best results followed by semi hydrophilic and hydrophilic. Thermal resistance in dry state measured on Thermal Foot Model has a correlation (r²) of 0.64 and 0.55 is observed with Permetest and Alambeta, respectively.
- ItemEffect of preheat setting process on heat, mass and air transfer in plain socks(2019-02-01) Mansoor, Tariq; Hes, Luboš; Skenderi, Zenun; Siddique, Hafiz Faisal; Hussain, Sajid; Javed, AsifSocks are prevented against wrinkle formation by preheat setting in greige form prior to wet processing. The current study is proposed to analyze the effect of socks presetting process on thermopysiological and wicking properties of comfort. In this analysis, main yarn linear density, plaiting yarn composition and number of needles are taken as variable on same machine setting. Sock samples were analyzed for comfort parameters (thermal conductivity, thermal resistivity, thermal absorptivity, thermal diffusivity, relative water vapor permeability (RWVP (%)), evaporation resistance (Ret), air permeability, vertical wicking, absorbency and color strength (K/S) value) after various processes (preheat setting, dyeing and postheat setting). The statistical analysis showed that preheat set process significantly affects vertical wicking, K/S value, absorbency, thermal conductivity, thermal resistivity and thermal diffusivity, respectively. While thermal absorptivity, air permeability, porosity, RWVP (%) and R-et couldn't show a significant impact.
