Abstract

In this study, the comfort properties of bamboo knitted fabrics were evaluated and compared with those of cotton and bamboo-cotton blend knitted fabrics before and after loess dyeing. As a result, it was found that appearance density, air permeability, coefficient of thermal conductivity, and deodorization rate of bamboo knitted fabrics were greater than those of cotton knitted fabrics. After loess dyeing, W/T values of knitted fabrics increased due to adhesion of loess to the surface of fiber and pore filling. WC/W value of all knitted fabrics decreased representing that fabric become harder and less fullness. After loess dyeing, air permeability, warmth retaining property, and water absorption capacity of knitted fabrics were decreased and deodorization of knitted fabrics was improved. Overall, bamboo-cotton blends are good alternative for well-being textiles because they have the advantages of both cotton and bamboo fabrics.
