Comfort 2

This document discusses comfort clothing and the factors that determine comfort. It covers several types of comfort including sensory, thermo-physiological, garment fit, and pressure comfort. Factors like air temperature, humidity, insulation, and activity levels affect thermal comfort. The document also discusses how fabric properties like insulation, wind proofing, moisture permeability, and water proofing impact thermal comfort. Finally, it covers how nanotechnology can be applied to textiles to improve properties like UV protection, flame retardancy, and moisture wicking.

IMPORTANCE OF COMFORT

IN CLOTHING

Different work places different comfort


is necessary.

Thermal discomfort
Sick Building Syndrome symptoms.
FACTORS DETERMINING
THERMAL COMFORT
Ø Personal factors

Ø Air temperature

Ø Air movement / velocity

Ø Relative humidity

Ø Insulative clothing

Ø Activity levels
THERMAL INTERACTION BETWEEN
BODY
Ø Clothing is the second skin to the human being.
AND CLOTHING
Ø Heat balance is important for good comfort.
FABRIC PROPERTIES FOR THERMAL
ØInsulation COMFORT

Ø Wind proofing

Ø Moisture vapors permeability

Ø Water proofing
CLOTHING INSULATION

Ø Clothing layers can prevent heat loss


and possibly lead to overheating.

Ø Type of material in the clothing may


decrease the insulating ability.
WIND PROOFING
Ø Comfort temperature for
unclothed body
is lower than skin temperature.
MOISTURE VAPOUR
Ø PERMEABILITY
When body losses heat, temperature
starts to rise.

Ø Heat the body by evaporating the


moisture from the skin.
WATER PROOFING

Ø Clothing system should


dry when cold season.

Ø Comfort is achieved
through Nano
technology and micro
encapsulation technic.
NANOTECHNOLOGY IN
TEXTILES FOR IMPROVING
COMPORT

Ø
Incorporating nano sized
entities into
