Abstract
This study investigated heat generation characteristics of knitted and woven intelligent garments made of ZrC imbedded yarns through thermal manikin measurement. These emotional and intelligent thermal characteristics by thermal manikin measurement were analysed and compared with light/thermal radiation experimental results. Surface temperature of ZrC imbedded woven and knitted fabrics by light/thermal radiation measurement was $4^{\circ}C$ and $2^{\circ}C$ higher than that of regular PET control fabrics, respectively. Clo value as heat generation characteristics of ZrC imbedded woven and knitted garments with light exposure was 0.14 and 0.08 higher than that of regular PET control garments, respectively. These results were attributed to the far-infrared thermal radiation from ZrC imbedded in the core part of the intelligent bi-component filament, which was verified by far-infrared emissive power ranged between $6{\mu}m$ and $20{\mu}m$ through FT-IR experiment and by inclusion of Zr through EDS ingredient analysis. However, compressibility of ZrC imbedded woven fabric was lower than that of regular PET one, and bending rigidity was higher than that of regular one, which resulted in a little stiff tactile hand property of ZrC imbedded fabric. We found that ZrC imbedded intelligent woven and knitted fabrics were applicable to the intelligent garment as a heat generation textile material by thermal manikin measurement.
본 연구에서는 써멀 마네킹 실험을 통해서 탄화지르코늄(ZrC) 혼입사로 만들어진 니트와 직물 의류의 발열 특성을 연구하였다. 써멀 마네킹 측정에 의한 감성 및 인지기능 열적특성이 분석되었으며 광발열 실험결과와 비교하였다. ZrC 혼입 직 편물의 표면온도는 일반 PET 직 편물 보다 각각 $4^{\circ}C$와 $2^{\circ}C$ 높은 값을 보였다. 그리고 이들 직 편물 의류의 광조사상태에서 써멀 마네킹 실험에 의한 발열특성을 나타내는 보온성 Clo치는 각각 0.18과 0.08 높은 값을 보였다. 이 결과는 이성분 필라멘트의 심사부에 혼입된 ZrC에서 방사된 원적외선에 기인 된 것을 $6{\mu}m{\sim}20{\mu}m$범위의 원적외선 방사강도 결과와 EDS 원소분석에 의해 확인함으로써 가능하였다. 그리고 ZrC 혼입에 의해 직물의 압축성이 낮아지고 굽힘강성이 높은 값을 보임으로써 촉감 특성은 다소 부족함을 보였다. 그러나 ZrC혼입 직 편물의 발열특성 발현을 써멀 마네킹 측정에 의해 확인함으로써 인텔리전트 의류로서의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.
