Get to Know Sweating Guarded HotplateTesting Materials

Sweating Guarded Hotplate Testing Materials

There are 3 ways for moisture penetrating fabrics:

1. Vapor spreads through fabric microporous;

2. Fiber absorbs moisture and flows out from the place where water pressure is lower;

3. Large amount of water molecule creates dew and spreads through capillary and evaporates at a place where water pressure is lower.

The Vapor amount generated from absorption, transfer and flowing out is related to fiber, moisture absorption amount, expansion degree, fiber pores and channels.

The textile products of sweating guarded hotplate test should be water absorption and quicksetness. Polyester has high crystallinity molecular chain structure, thus ensures polyester these features such as small amount of water absorption and bad air permeability which stands out definitely in the feature of quicksetness. Natural fiber like cotton is endowed with many holes which make it good at water absorption, but the expansion results in water gripping and poor quicksetness.

Generally speaking, hydroscopic and sweat fiber tested for sweating guarded hotplate uses capillarity generated from fine groove to make sweat volatilized quickly. For more sweating guarded hotplate test and textile testing instruments, contact QINSUN Instruments.
