Comfort Moisture Management Thermal Regulation Merino Wool Polyester Odor Resistance

Abstract

Merino wool is well-known for outstanding softness, moisture transport, and thermal management, while polyester introduces strength and fast drying. This paper's work examines the comfort properties of Merino wool/polyester blended fabrics with different blend ratios (50:50, 60:40, and 70:30). Activated charcoal treatment was applied to promote odour resistance and moisture transport. Various tests like air permeability, wicking, pilling, and thermal conductivity were conducted to determine the best composition for durability and functionality. The outcomes show that 70:30 has the highest resistance to durability and moisture-wicking property, but the highest breathability is in the 50:50.
