Abstract

This study evaluated the effects of two independent variables thickness and weight on the five dependable variables air permeability, bursting strength, horizontal wicking, thermal insulation, and evaporative resistance. Total 5 hypotheses were developed to test the relationship among jersey and interlock knits with different fiber content. Mean (M), standard deviation (SD), t-test (t) and probability (p) were calculated to compare intra group fabric based of dependable variables. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Pearson Correlation and Regression Analysis were performed to determine the relation of independent variables to all dependable variables. Differences were found in jersey and interlock knits of different thickness and weight for air permeability, evaporative resistance, bursting strength, and horizontal wicking. Both positive and negative correlations were found between dependent and independent variables. Keywords -Thermal Comfort, Fabric Thick
