Effect of fabric surface’s cleanliness on its moisture/air permeability

A fabric’s moisture/air permeability is a main factor for the fabric design for advanced applications, and no theoretical model was available in literature for an optimal permeability. In this paper, we use the capillary-like effect to elucidate the permeability property, and the effect...
