| Popis: | Moisture absorption and transport properties of fabrics determine the thermo-physiological comfort of the apparel. The study aims to investigate the application of hydrophilic metal oxide nanostructures on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fabrics and their influence on the comfort properties of PET. Both, the sol-gel synthesized nano sols and commercially available nanoparticles (NPs) of SiO2 and TiO2 with different concentrations were applied on PET fabric alone or in combination with a hydrophilic resin. The composite of nanoparticles and resin exhibited radical improvement in the moisture management behavior of PET substrate, which is crucial for its industrial viability for activewear.
