Abstrakt: This paper investigates the new graphene fibre primary performance, taking the winter multifunctional knitted fabric with heat and antibacterial as the starting point. Using 150D graphene yarn, ordinary polyester yarn and 40S cotton yarn as the main raw materials, six yarn ratios were designed through the blending process and the HFX-A6 multi-functional spinning frame was used to manufacture the yarn, and then 11 knitted fabrics with three organizational structures were knitted using a 36G single-sided circular knitting machine. Based on the effects of graphene yarn content and fabric organization structure on the essential performance, we investigated the fabrics' thermal and humidity comfort and antimicrobial properties. The conclusion shows that increased graphene content enhances the knitted materials' performance. The addition of graphene content significantly affects fabrics' heat generation and antimicrobial properties. It provides an important reference for the development and preparation of multifunctional hygroscopic hot knitting materials with specific practical value in winter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
