Abstract

Abstract

Objective evaluation of sensorial comfort in cut-resistant protective clothing is crucial to meet user quality expectations and manufacturing standards. This study investigates the effects of core-sheath ratio and yarn twist level on the sensorial comfort properties of cut-resistant fabrics produced from high-performance core-spun yarns. Stainless steel filament fibre (30–50 µm) was used as the core, with polyester and high-performance polyethylene (HPPE) blended fibres as the sheath. Twelve 6-end satin weave fabric samples were produced by varying three twist levels (500, 600, 700 m⁻¹) and core-sheath ratios, while maintaining constant yarn count, warp/weft density, and fabric weight. The Kawabata Evaluation System was employed to assess tensile, shear, bending, compression, and surface properties. Results revealed that fabrics with lower bulk density, higher core-sheath ratio, and lower yarn twist exhibited superior sensorial comfort. The findings offer valuable guidance for optimizing protective clothing that balances enhanced cut resistance with improved wearer comfort.
