Moisture management is a kind of softening treatment that can enhance the hydrophilic properties of fabric to absorb more moisture and better hand-feel: soft, bulky, smooth and better drape and pliability. Furthermore, this softening can improve the sewability.  Hydrophilic cotton fabrics can absorb water and sweater from skin to external environment; this can enhance evaporation and feel dry with comfort. Customers are more likely to wear this kind of hydrophilic garment with comfort hand-feel, especially during exercising and doing out-door activities.  In this paper, the effect of moisture management treatment on the UV blocking effect of 100% cotton knitted structure will be studied.
