Abstract
Clothes which are used as military clothes are different from the other clothes, because they are worn continuously and long time. Heat, humidity and air movements are very important for these clothes because these parameters effect the thermophysiological comfort properties of clothes. These clothes must allow the passage of water vapour from the body of the garment to feel comfortable to wearer. In this study, moisture management properties of different blends of wool/polyester fabrics which are used in winter military clothes were examined with MMT test device. For this aim, wetting time, absorption rate, spreading speed, accumulative one way transfer index and overall moisture management capacity of fabrics, which have different wool/polyester blend ratio and weave pattern, were investigated. Also fabric pattern which are more appropriate for moisture transfer, were determined.
