Analysis of Structural Properties of Thermocool and Polyester Yarns

Abstract :

Polyester fiber has taken the foremost position in textile all over the world. This material that has many uses like
strength, light weight, resistance to shrinking, stretching, mildew, creasing and ultraviolet radiations but comes few
drawbacks also that are causes wearer to get overheated and sweaty, gives the wearer a rather cheap and scruffy look,
does not feel very nice on the skin & hydrophobic in nature. These drawbacks have been overcome by a new fibre named Thermocool which has introduced three developments using its thermo regulating, moisture-wicking Thermo°Cool™ technology. In this view, the purpose of this study is to understand the morphology of both the fibres using XRD& DCS test. The result showed no difference in XRD but difference was clearly seen in DSC test.
