| Resumo: | The main objective of this work is to study the various moisture absorption characteristics of terry towel fabrics based on 100% cotton fibres available in the market. Five types of cotton terry fabrics were purchased and studied their water absorption, absorption time, absorption rate (static absorption), dynamic, and vertical wicking. The results showed that the moisture absorption related behaviour of the terry towel fabrics were based on their fabric weight, thickness and pile yarn twist. |
