Clothing comfort is one of the most important attributes of textile materials. A
basic understanding of comfort aspects of textile materials is extremely useful
for fiber, yarn and fabric manufacturers, researcher, garment designers,
processing industries, garment houses, users of the fabrics for speciality
applications and all others related with textile and garment industries.
Understanding of interrelationship between fiber material, yarn structure,
fabric structure, transmission characteristics (air, heat and moisture) and
tactile aspects of textile materials on thermo-psychological and
neurophysiological processes of clothing comfort will be extremely helpful for
engineering of clothing for specific applications.
