A Study of Wickability of Gauze Products for Infant

Abstract:

Gauze is an excellent material for infant apparel which can made in various forms and by a variety of methods, and thus have attracted great attention in baby care market. This study aims to identify the wicking property of the gauze fabric in baby care products, and to analyse the relationships between the wicking ability and fabric structure of baby soft gauze products. The experimental results revealed that a significant difference occurred for the gauze in the wicking ability. The cotton gauzes were found to show higher wicking rate than bamboo counterparts because of the higher hydrophilic property of cotton material. The fiber content and structure of fabric were the major parameters that affects the wicking ability.
