AB  - This study investigated and characterized the physical properties and their influence on moisture management and
stretch properties of underwear fabric made of different compositions of fibres. It is found that fabric made of finer
filament yarn, having an open and porous structure, smaller stich length, and smaller thickness has higher air
permeability, water vapour permeability, better moisture transport and overall moisture management capacity. It is also
found that elastic recovery is higher in the wale direction in the case of weft-knitted fabrics. Furthermore, a fabric with
longer stich length has higher stretch in both directions and more recovery in the wale direction. In addition, it is found
that warp-knitted fabric has better moisture transport.
