  Abstract

Graphene not only provides functional finishing for fabrics, but also influences the original physical and mechanical properties of the fabrics, reducing their wearing properties. This study conducted graphene conductive finishing on acrylic/wool blended knitted fabrics using an oxidation–reduction method. The research focused on analyzing the reduction of graphene, fabric conductivity, thermal comfort, and hand feel of the fabric, while studying the effects of reduction temperature and time on electrical conductivity, thermal comfort, moisture absorption, breathability, and hand feel during the graphene process. The results revealed that a higher degree of graphene reduction led to lower surface resistance and enhanced electrical conductivity in the acrylic/wool blended knitted fabrics. The stability of the fabric structure and mechanical characteristics were also influenced by temperature and time, impacting comfort attributes. The reduction temperature and duration directly influenced the reduction degree of graphene, with the maximum reduction degree and lowest surface resistance observed at 75 °C and 90 min. Importantly, there was no significant degradation in the thermal comfort and tactility of the acrylic/wool blended knitted fabrics.
