It accurately and consistently measures the transmission of both heat and moisture from the body through clothing.
Recent research indicates that wearing comfort is cited as the most important characteristic of clothing sought by users and consumers. Since this is a key factor in determining the success of products launched in the market, it is crucial to understand the elements that influence the comfort characteristics of fabrics. Two of the most important factors contributing to product comfort are overall thermal insulation and moisture permeability. The Sweating Guarded Hotplate from SDLAtlas, also known as the "skin model," accurately and consistently measures the transfer of both heat and moisture from the body through clothing. The sweating hotplate, referred to as the "skin model," measures the thermal properties and water vapor permeability of fabrics and other materials under steady-state conditions. This test simulates the heat and moisture transfer processes occurring next to human skin.
