Descrição

We study the subjective and objective properties of woollen fabrics for making summer trousers. The objective parameters of the water vapour permeability and the thermal parameters by thermal manikin were measured and the subjective parameters were evaluated by an inquiry to a trial on the sensations perceived to the touch of fabrics and the trousers when dressed on. In this context, this work studies the sensorial and thermal comfort of fine woollen fabric for trousers, as well as its relations with their structural properties.
