Summary

In this work, the effects of weft yarn (two plied, two plied cotton/PVA, siro core spun, and ring core-spun weft yarn) and fabric structure (plain, twill, and sateen construction) on air and water vapor permeability, vertical wicking height, and moisture management properties of the fabrics were analyzed in detail. The scope of the research was to obtain better performance by producing hollow and microporous structures.
