The comfort performance of wool light fabrics based on subjective, objective evaluation
The textile and clothing industry, aware of the marketing evolution cannot neglect the requests of comfort, which has been an increased and actual exigency of the clothing goods consumers. There is an urgent need to evaluate and quantify the comfort properties of textile in general. This work aims to make a study of the different types of lightweight wool fabrics, based on the objective evaluation of thermophysiological and sensorial comfort, according to real preferences, with the goal of creating “comfort standards” and to develop a simple sensorial comfort “predictable model”, based on correlation studies, that from objective properties, predicts the subjective valuations of comfort. Thus we can define a comfort quality profile (sensorial and thermophysiological), allowing to create a “comfort label” of easy interpretation, similar to the textiles “clean and conservation label”, currently used in the textiles and clothes industry labelling. This label will certify the quality and prestige of these textiles, towards the modern consumer’s needs and demands. ; Programme POCTI/IDEIA
