Master's thesis of Technology (Fashion & Textiles): Studies in the performance of fire-resistant woven fabrics for Australian firefighting station wear

While it is recognised that knitted fabrics may have their place in firefighting PPC, especially for undergarments, from the point of view of fire performance, strength and presentation, woven fabric constructions appear to be more suitable for work wear applications. Hence, this study is concerned with developing and testing a range of functional, woven Station Wear fabrics designed to enhance flame protection, durability and thermo-physiological comfort properties. In trying to improve all three aspects, a compromise in the properties of fabrics developed would be very likely.

Thesis for the degree of Master of Master of Technology (Fashion & Textiles): Studies in the performance of fire-resistant woven fabrics for Australian Firefighting Station Wear

The objectives of the present study are: To design and produce functional samples of woven single-layer, fire-resistant fabrics made from natural, FR man-made cellulosics, and high-performance synthetic blended yarns; to determine the physiological consequences and health risks associated with wearing PPC in hot, humid environments in relation to metabolic heat production and physical work for firefighters trying to maintain the balance between protection and comfort, and its implication on the required Station Wear fabric properties.
