AND TEST RESULTS

[0030] Wicking tests of untreated and treated cotton fabrics have been conducted under two standard test methods, i.e., Drop Test, and Vertical Wicking, the latter being according to both M&S (Marks and Spencer) and Nike standard test.

[0031] The results, presented in the following Tables, refer either to time-dependent advance of moisture in the capillary channels of a cotton fabric, in accordance with the Vertical Wicking test method, or to time-dependent area coverage advance of the moisture in the fabric, measured close to starting and advanced time points, in accordance with the test method of Drop Test. The Drop Test also includes percentage measurements of moisture evaporation at a pre-determined time-point.

[0032] In both tests, the fabrics were further tested for sustaining wicking performance level after repeated washes. It should be mentioned in this regard, that although it is common practice to test fabrics up to between 10 and 20 wash rounds, the tests ...

Abstract

A nano technology process for the manufacture of a fabric that comprises fibers, such as man-made fibers, cotton fibers or cellulose fibers, which are essentially hydrophilic, with improved moisture-management performance, in which the fibers are individually encapsulated with a nano chemistry water-repellant surface.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a process for imparting to hydrophilic fibers less absorbing of moisture properties, and improved moisture-management in yarns and fabrics thereof. More specifically, the present invention relates to cotton or man-made cotton or cellulose fibers within yarns or fabric constructions, where their moisture transmission throughout is improved. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Moisture-management rapidly accumulates increased interest in high-tech textile industry as an important factor in recreational as well as customary garments and apparels. The need for fast drying type fabrics, especially for athletic purposes, has so far been satisfied with the use of synthetic hydrophobic materials that do not absorb moisture. However, the ability to control perspiration absorption, transport, and evaporation off skin tissue through apparels, made of natural hydrophilic materials, especially ones as cotton, to the atmosphere enables...
