Özet:

In this study, the effects of the structural parameters forming automobile seat cover fabrics on the comfort properties (such as water vapor permeability, air permeability and thermal resistance properties of fabrics) that may affect the vehicle usage performance of the person were examined. The seat cover fabrics used in the experimental study had not undergone any special finishing processes and it was aimed to evaluate the direct (without any special treatment) effect of the basic structural parameters that make up the fabric. Thus, it was considered that the fabrics used in the seat covers during the usage or after the treatments such as seat cleaning would create an important design input in terms of the breathability of the seat cover fabric and its sustainability throughout the lifetime of the car. As a results of this research, it was observed that thickness, weight per unit area and weave structure of seat cover woven fabrics have an important effect on the water vapor permeability, air permeability and thermal resistivity properties of the fabrics.
