  1. Quest-AQ Moisture Management 2009-2010

  2. What is Moisture Management ? The ability of a garment to transport moisture away from the skin to the garments outer surface Moisture management often refers to the transport of both moisture vapor & liquid away from the body. Moisture vapor can pass through openings between filters of yarns. In the case of cotton or other hydrophilic fibers the fiber can serve as a buffer by absorbing moisture vapor & adding to the comfort properties of a fabric. Liquid water ( or perspiration) must be wicked into a fabric structure & then evaporate from the outside of the fabric.

  3. Textile as a barrier to comfort Textile commonly worn act as a barrier between the external Environment & the human body. The behavior of moisture in Various fibers is different owing to their physical & chemical Properties making it uncomfortable to the wearer- unless the Moisture is carried away by a natural drying process or aided by the apparel. Polyester is being increasingly used in apparel, especially due to Its strength, durability & fastness etc. Unfortunately owing to its Inherent properties it can not absorb & transport moisture from Body sweat. In some structures such as polyester knits, the Water absorption of sweat released as perspiration, however such modification either by fabric construction fiber & or chemical treatment make the fabric absorbent thereby retaining moisture inside the fabric for long period of time. Such retention will then result into “post exercise chill” as the retaining moisture starts absorbing the body heat to evaporate from fabric.

  4. Current Technologies • Presently the concept of • Moisture management is • limited to moisture • absorption. The Absorption • property of a Textile fabric • can be evaluated by the • following 3 methods. • Wicking :A capillary action • in warp & weft direction. • 2) Drop Test:The time taken • by a drop of water to get • totally absorbed by the fabric • & stop spreading. • 3) Area : The total surface • area covered by known • Amount of water in a specific • time period. • Currently various products • Are Available commercially • Which include hydrophilic • cationic, Anionic blends & • silicone oil Emulsions • which assures quick absorption.

  5. So what is Comfort all about Limitations While the current Technologies to Improve the Absorption Properties, there Are questions on Durability of the Performance, the Requirement of Process conditions & silicone films, Which tend to Break during use & washing. To be able to create Comfort in apparel & more particularly in Intimate wear or Sportswear, the textile Substrate has to be Programmed to quickly Attract moisture & Release moisture even More quickly leading to Swift drying/ This Releases valuable area Of the apparel for the Next round of absorption

  6. Quest - AQ 3 directional new generation moisture management technology • Cool & Dry 2.Quick wicking 3. Quick Drying 4. Anti-cling 5. Post Exercise chill 6. Breathable 7. Wash durable

  7. Additional benefits • Quest –AQ combines the dual effect of quick • absorption & quick drying for polyester & polyester • rich blend. • 2) Quest –AQ increased the speed of moisture diffusion • in 3 directions enabling the fabric to left perspiration • immediately from the skin to the outer surface of • the garment as the moisture does not get trapped • in the clothing. • Three dimensional warp wise, weft wise & • atmospheric transportation of moisture designed for • polyester & polyester fabrics or garments. • Dry, soft breathable fabric & garments made from • Quest –AQ makes the user in total comfort – • NO MATTER WHAT THE CONDITIONS • Ensures removal of moisture or sweat at much higher • speed & keep the body dry with no after sweat chill • effect. • Imparts non-cling performance to 100% polyester • for better wearer comfort.

  8. Application Standard usage is shown below & should vary depending on the target material, the purpose & conditions. Conduct a preliminary test for determining an appropriate amount including the compatibility with other chemical Agents to used: By Pad: Quest AQ - 10 – 50 g/l Pad dry cure 150 – 190°c for 1 min. By Exhaust Quest AQ - 1.5% o.w.f pH - 4 – 5 MLR - 1: 10 – 30 Temperature - 40°c Time - 20 – 40 mins.
