Abstract
A comparative study between the standard Washburn macroscale method for determination of the capillary wetting rate in a nonwoven textile fibre mesh and the polarization optical video-microscopy-based microscale method for investigation of the wetting process in single fibres is reported. The study was performed with profiled polyester fibres associated with superior wicking performance. Both methods resulted in very similar values of the wetting rate, which confirms that for textile materials based on such type of fibres the microstructure of a single fibre dictates liquid transport properties on the micro- as well as on the macroscale. Consequently, for such materials the microscale method is fully competitive with the standard macroscopic approaches.
