abstract
Texle materials are increasingly being subjected to the process of prinng.
The prinng process with its parameters signicantly aects the properes
of texle materials and clothes made from these materials. This paper exam-
ines the eect of the parameters of digital prinng on thermo-physiological
characteriscs of printed texle materials. As the essenal print parameters
were selected tone value and a dierent number of passes. In this research
were used knied fabric materials of 100% coon bers (100% CO), 100%
polyester bers (100% PES) and their mixture (50%CO/50% PES). The inu-
ence of print parameters to thermo-physiological properes of the material
is evaluated through a warm or cold feeling and heat retenon ability. Re-
sults of the research demonstrated that, in addion to material composion,
the prinng process with its parameters have a signicant inuence on the
thermo-physiological characteriscs of texle materials.
