Abstract

Exercise is now a routine part of daily life for most people, valued for its direct contribution to physical and mental health. This has driven a marked rise in demand for sportswear, and market growth needs to be matched by comparable gains in the quality and volume of production. This study evaluates the structural characteristics of four polyester Single Jersey Mesh knitted fabrics together with their thermophysiological and tactile comfort performance, with the aim of classifying their suitability by exercise intensity. Samples were tested using a Fabric Touch Tester (FTT), a Moisture Management Tester (MMT), and a Sweating Guarded Hot Plate (SGHP). Sample B recorded the highest Permeability Index (PI = 1.9214), pointing to a greater capacity for heat and moisture dissipation than sample D (PI = 0.5010). Sample D, however, performed best for softness, smoothness, and low evaporative resistance. Taken together, these results support samples B and C for high-intensity sportswear, while samples A and D are better suited to low-to-moderate intensity sportswear and casual wear.

Abstract

The growing global sportswear market demands innovation in comfort, particularly in the modest sportswear category for Muslim women, who face specific challenges in moisture management. This study aims to analyze the effect of material variations on the functional characteristics of weft-knit fabrics for Muslim women's aerobics wear. Fabric samples were produced using a Stoll flat knitting machine with five material variations: 100% cotton, 100% rayon, 100% polyester, a polyester/cotton blend (65/35), and a polyester/rayon blend (65/35). All samples used plain stitch structure with yarn counts of Ne1 16.17 (cotton), Ne1 20.15 (rayon), Ne1 18.22 (polyester), Ne1 19.37 (polyester/cotton), and Ne1 20.70 (polyester/rayon), respectively. Wales density ranged from 20.0-22.0 WPI and courses density from 30.0-33.8 CPI. Tested parameters included fabric weight, thickness, loop density, breathability, tactile comfort, and moisture management. The analysis showed that material variations significantly impacted the fabric's functional performance. Polyester/rayon 65/35 blend fabric (E Fabric) was identified as the most optimal material with breathability test results (58.44 cm3/sec/cm2), lowest bending work, and Accumulative One-way Transport Index Grade 3. These findings recommend the use of polyester/rayon blends to optimize thermophysiological comfort in aerobics wear for Muslim women.

Abstract

Kebanyakan orang saat ini menganggap olahraga merupakan bagian penting dari aktivitas keseharian mereka, karena secara langsung membantu menjaga kesehatan fisik dan mental. Hal ini menyebabkan konsumsi pakaian olahraga meningkat secara signifikan. Meningkatnya permintaan pasar harus berbanding lurus dengan kualitas dan kuantitas pakaian olahraga yang diproduksi. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi secara kuantitatif dan sistematis hubungan antara diferensiasi mikro-struktur jeratan (technical face dan technical back) empat varian kain rajut Single Jersey Mesh poliester dengan performa kenyamanan taktil (FTT), manajemen kelembapan (MMT), serta resistansi termal-evaporatif (SGHP), guna menyusun matriks klasifikasi objektif kesesuaian bahan terhadap tingkat intensitas aktivitas olahraga. Sifat kenyamanan diuji menggunakan instrumen Fabric Touch Tester (FTT), Moisture Management Tester (MMT), dan Sweating Guarded Hot Plate (SGHP). Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa sampel B memiliki nilai Permeability Index (PI) paling tinggi (1,9214) yang berbanding terbalik dengan sampel D yang memiliki nilai PI paling rendah (0,5010). Namun, sampel D memiliki hasil uji kelembutan, kehalusan, dan resistansi evaporasi yang baik. Berdasarkan evaluasi komprehensif, sampel C dan B sangat direkomendasikan untuk high-intensity sportswear, sedangkan sampel A dan D lebih ideal untuk low-to-moderate intensity sportswear dan pakaian harian.
