DEVELOPMENT OT TRI-LAYERED KNITTED FABRIC FOR SPORTS WEAR APPLICATION

Textile and Fashion Technology

ABSTRACT In recent years, there has been an increase in revolution of sportswear to provide high comfort ness and to achieve the perfect fit. The elements that are considered while developing fabric for sportswear are fabric, type of yarn, fibre technology and techniques to acquire high performance and comfort of fabric. There has been a use of textile technology and science for the manufacturing of leisure and sportswear to fulfil the needs for the sports activities for their greater performance. Sports fabrics are materials which are used technically that help the wearer to be more comfortable while practicing sports, the fabric will be based on moisture and high heat management properties, particularly good elasticity, quick drying and extremely breathable, to obtain thermal and moisture management properties, creation of fabrics with multi layers is incredibly significant to get preferable comfort for clothing. The present research work emphasizes on development of fabric for sportswear with tri layers using yarn such as viscose, micro denier polyester, polypropylene of interlock structure using circular knitting machine as these yarns are more favorable for making of sportswear and to discuss the test results of fabrics for their comfort properties.
