본 발명은 옥-함유 섬유, 예컨대 옥-함유 폴리에스테르 섬유와, 소수성 면 섬유 및 임의로 통상의 섬유와의 블렌드를 포함하는 얀을 기재한다. 옥-함유 폴리에스테르 섬유 중 옥은 얀에 사람의 피부와 접촉시에 쿨링 효과를 제공한다. 소수성 면 섬유는 얀에 소수성을 제공한다. 친수성 특성을 갖는 얀을 또한 함유하는 직물에, 보다 높은 퍼센트의 소수성 얀이 직물의 전면보다는 직물의 배면에 존재하도록 하는 방식으로 포함되는 경우에, 직물은 쿨링 및 수분-흡상 효과를 갖는다. 얀은 데님 능직의 위사로서 사용되어, 향상된 쿨링 및 수분-흡상 특성을 갖는 데님 의류를 제공할 수 있다. The present disclosure describes a yarn comprising a blend of jade-containing fibers, such as jade-containing polyester fibers, with hydrophobic cotton fibers and optionally conventional fibers. The jade in the jade-containing polyester fibers provides the yarn with a cooling effect when it contacts a person's skin. The hydrophobic cotton fibers provide the yarn with hydrophobicity. When included in a fabric that also contains yarn having hydrophilic properties in a manner such that a higher percentage of the hydrophobic yarn is present on the back surface of the fabric than on the front surface of the fabric, the fabric has a cooling and moisture-wicking effect. The yarn may be used as the fill of a denim twill weave to provide denim clothing having enhanced cooling and moisture-wicking properties.
