Abstract
In this work, physiological characteristics of the socks made from yarns with similar physical and mechanical properties but of different raw materials (100 % bamboo fibers, 100 % cotton fibers, 100 % viscose, and blend with ratio 60 % cotton/40 % PES) were investigated. The socks were knit with plain right-left 1:1 stitch and a ribbed 3:1 right-left stitch. In both stitches, the socks made from the bamboo yarn showed much better thermo-physiological characteristics compared to those made from conventional fiber yarns. Because of micro-cracks in the structure of fibers, the knitwear made from bamboo yarn has much better moisture absorption and at the same time the excellent ventilation and keeps the warmth. This contributes to the feeling of freshness and relaxation and has a particularly good effect of cooling in the summer. All this suggests that in the future, due to its properties, the bamboo fiber and yarn made from it will be increasingly used in the textile industry.
