AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Conventional self-regulating fabrics that change air permeability upon wetting are difficult to visually recognize the change in mesh part size.
Method used
A mesh knitted fabric using a yarn composed of a conjugate fiber with a polyester and polyamide component in a side-by-side form, where the yarn stretches in the connecting parts upon wetting, increasing the mesh area and enabling visual recognition of the self-regulating function.
Benefits of technology
The fabric exhibits a reversible increase in mesh area upon wetting, enhancing air permeability and allowing the self-regulating function to be visibly recognized, with improved comfort and functionality.

Abstract
A task is to provide a mesh knitted fabric which is reversibly increased in the area of a mesh part when being wetted, enabling the self-regulating function of the fabric to be visually recognized, and a fiber product, and a means for solving the problem is a mesh knitted fabric having a mesh part, wherein the mesh knitted fabric comprises a yarn composed of a conjugate fiber having a polyester component and a polyamide component bonded in a side-by-side form, wherein the area of the mesh part of the mesh knitted fabric upon being wetted is increased.
