Abstract:

In order to improve the microclimate of the chest wader and the operation comfort of fisherman, according to the characteristics of underwater environment and combined with the fabric and high water absorption resin materials, this paper developed a chest wader lining through focusing on the human body sweating distribution characteristics. Through testing the water absorption, moisture permeability and conductivity of the fabric, and simulating underwater pressure environment, the water conductivity from the fabric to high water absorption resin material could be explored, and thus appropriate fabric could be selected accordingly. According to the difference in sweating rate and sweat gathering area, the combination of high moisture conductivity fabric and high water absorption resin material and high moisture absorption fabric could be set respectively. Velcro was used at the chest wader edges, which made the combined lining detachable. The results of field evaluation on the designed wader chest lining showed the moisture comfort of chest wader in long time works had been improved significantly.
