Moisture Management Tester Operation and Application

Quantization garments comfort
 

Moisture management capability depends on the waterproof, water repellency, moisture absorption, fiber and yarn capillary action, shape and inner structure. Despite some testing methods for simple test of absorption, permeability and penetrating time, these standards couldn’t measure moisture dynamic transfer features in textiles. Moisture management tester designed by HONGKONG Polytechnic University is able to measure fabric three-dimensional moisture spreading and transferring capability. Moisture management tester consists of two concentric sensors. Fix the samples between sensors under a certain pressure, then transmit standard solution to sample surface for test, at last, the computers display and record sensors resistance changing.

Under normal circumstances, it takes 2 minutes to finish the moisture management test and each test can measure & calculate the following ten indexes: 
Surface/bottom layer soaking time

Surface/bottom layer absorption speed

Surface/bottom layer the biggest soaking radius

Surface/bottom layer moisture spreading speed

Accumulating one-way transfer ability

Overall moisture management ability

Moisture management tester increasing application

Moisture management tester has been widely adopted in labs all over the world and most of them textile manufacturers or retailers of sportswear industry. They found moisture management tester great advantages when displaying their products to customers. People from medical socks, tissues, women sanitary napkins and mattress industry also show their interests in moisture management tester, although they are not from garments manufacturing, the data moisture management tester displays plays very important role in their researches.
