PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS OF TEXTILE MATERIALS REQUIRED FOR SPECIAL CLOTHING MANUFACTURING

  • 1. Andijan State Technical Institute, professor,

Description

Special clothing represents a critical intersection of materials science, textile engineering, and protective technology. This review systematically examines the properties and applications of textile materials employed in the manufacture of special-purpose garments, including protective, military, medical, and industrial clothing. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of peer-reviewed literature published between 2010 and 2024, focusing on high-performance fibers, functional coatings, smart textiles, and nanocomposite fabrics. Our findings reveal that aramid fibers, ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), and carbon fiber composites remain the dominant structural materials due to their exceptional strength-to-weight ratios and thermal stability. Emerging technologies such as electrospun nanofiber membranes, phase change materials (PCMs), and electronic textiles (e-textiles) are increasingly integrated to enhance multifunctionality. The study identifies critical gaps in current standardization frameworks and proposes a unified classification system for special textile materials. These results provide a comprehensive reference for textile engineers, product designers, and safety standards organizations working in the field of protective clothing.
