Eco-sustainability of cotton textiles: moisture absorption case study

Moisture absorption is a crucial property of cotton fabrics, as it directly affects their comfort and performance in various applications, as well as fabric’s degradation. While the moisture absorption ability of cotton fibres has been extensively studied, the influence of the geometric, structural,...

Description
Summary:Moisture absorption is a crucial property of cotton fabrics, as it directly affects their comfort and performance in various applications, as well as fabric’s degradation. While the moisture absorption ability of cotton fibres has been extensively studied, the influence of the geometric, structural, and mass characteristics of cotton fabrics on their moisture absorption capacity remains less explored. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the relationship between these fabric parameters and moisture absorption to identify additional factors contributing to cotton fabrics’ overall moisture absorption ability.
