Several methods are employed to incorporate nanotechnology into fabrics for moisture wicking:
1. Nanocoatings: Applying nanoscale coatings on the fabric can create a hydrophilic (water-attracting) surface that helps in quick moisture transport. 2. Nanofibers and Nanocomposites: Integrating nanofibers into the fabric can improve its structural properties and enhance moisture wicking. Nanocomposites can also be used to combine different materials to achieve desired characteristics. 3. Electrospinning: This process creates ultrafine fibers with a high surface area-to-volume ratio, which significantly improves moisture management.
