The Influence of the Magnetic Fiber Content on Fabric Wearability

Article Preview

Abstract:

The content of magnetic fiber is the determinate element of both the surface magnetic field intensity and the economic cost of the magnetic fabric. It probably has certain influence on fabric wearability. In this study, experimental method has been adopted to investigate the wearability of knitted magnetic fabric which is woven of magnetic fiber and non-magnetic fiber in different proportions. The mechanical property, pilling resistance, moisture permeability and other properties of magnetic fiber have been tested. The results of study shows that as magnetic fiber content in the magnetic fabric increases, the breaking strength, bursting strength and pilling resistance of the fabric decrease and the moisture permeability variation. But the bending property, drapability and dimension stability of the fabric nearly have no evident relation with the content of magnetic fiber. This study can provide references for the further research of the magnetic health-care garment and will make the magnetic fabric better uses on garment.
