Abstrakty

Eri silk, a wild silk variety available in the northeastern states of India, has better softness, tensile and thermal properties. The present study aimed to develop different knitted structures and investigate the influence of knitting process variables on the thermal comfort and wicking properties. Knitted single jersey and single pique fabric structures were produced with two sets of yarns - 25 Tex and 14.32 Tex with three levels of loop length. Thermal properties of the fabric were analysed using an Alambeta instrument, and the wicking ability was measured with a vertical wicking tester. Thermal comfort properties of eri silk were also compared with those of conventional mulberry silk, with the experiment result revealing that eri silk has better comfort values. A statistically significant correlation is found between knitting process parameters viz. the yarn count, loop length knitting structure and the thermal and wickability values of the fabrics.

Jedwab „Eri”, odmiana dzikiego jedwabiu dostępna w północno-wschodnich stanach Indii ma bardzo dobrą miękkość, właściwości rozciągające i termiczne. Przedstawione badania miały na celu opracowanie różnych dzianych struktur i zbadanie wpływu zmiennych procesów dziania na komfort cieplny i właściwości przenoszenia wilgoci. Dzianiny single jersey i pojedyncze struktury typu „pique” zostały wyprodukowane z dwóch zestawów przędz 25 i 14,32 tex. Właściwości termiczne zostały przeanalizowane za pomocą przyrządu Alambeta, a zdolność odprowadzania wilgoci mierzona była za pomocą testera przenoszenia pionowego. Jedwab „Eri” porównano z konwencjonalnym jedwabiem morowym i stwierdzono, że ma on lepsze parametry komfortu cieplnego. Występowała istotna korelacja pomiędzy parametrami procesu dziania (liczebność przędzy, długość pętli, struktura dziania) a właściwościami termicznymi i zdolnością odprowadzania wilgoci.
