Mechanical and permeability properties of sportech fabrics
Özet
In the scope of this work, determination of the parameters that affect permeability properties and the proposition of fabric structures designed for the needs of different sports are aimed by measuring permeability properties of fabrics used in the field of sports clothing. In this context, 11 different fabric structures that are used primarily in the production of sports clothing on the market were selected and mechanical and permeability (air and water) measurements were performed. Due to the reason of supplying the fabrics from the market, the weight of the selected fabrics is paid attention to the issue that is at least close to each other. The results showed that fibre type is the most effective parameter with regard to permeability properties especially water permeability. Since the fabrics were obtained from the market, thickness properties of the fabrics also influence the permeability properties.
