A comprehensive research must be conducted on manufacturing techniques such as patterns and sewing, with the understanding of material properties to satisfy consumers' emotions with a strong fashion trend orientation. Physical and emotional characteristics may change depending on the characteristics of the material, and the overall silhouette and feeling of the garment can change depending on how sewing is conducted.To examine the completeness of a finished garment depending on different kinds of clothing material, this study fabricated an actual garment and a 3D virtual garment as well using 3D CAD IMAGE SYSTEM (CLO 3D, DC Suite, etc.) for a comparative analysis. These two methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. This study selected five of the most representative clothing materials and conducted a comparative analysis on appearance differences between actual clothing and virtual clothing by material. Additionally, the study verified the similarity between actual clothing and virtual clothing by comparing their physical properties by material, and evaluated the objectivity and accuracy of the reproducibility of material properties of virtual clothing.

다양한 용도로 사용되고 있는 라미네 이 팅 직물은 주로 별도로 제조된 고분자 필름 또는 막을 접착제, 열, 압력 등을 이용하여 기포(基布)와 결합시키는 방법으로 제조되어 진다. 이축연신시킨 Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) sheet는 매우 우수한 높은 투과성을 지니는 다공성 물질이 며, 본 연구에서는 이 막을 나일론 직물에 라미네이팅시킨 투습방수직물을 시료로 사용하여 라미네이팅 후의 역학특성 변화를 분석 하였다. 라미네이팅에 따른 투습방수직물의 물성과 역학특성의 변화에 관하여 살펴본 결과 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 3-layer 라미네이팅 직물(base fabric-PTFE membrane-knitted lining)의 인열강도는 2-layer라미네이팅 직물 (base fabric-PTFE membrane)에 비해 매우 높게 나타났으며, 가공 전 직물과 비교하여 코팅직물에서 나타난 것과 같은 인열강도의 감소는 나타나지 않았다. 직물-PTFE 막 복합체 의 경우, 라미네 이 팅 이 파단강도 및 파단신도 의 증가에 기여 한 것으로 나타났으며 특히 3-layer 라미네이팅 직물의 경우, 신장률이 20%를 넘어서면서 강도가 현저히 증가하였다. 의복을 착용하였을 때 가해질 수 있을 정도의 소변형(small deformation) 하에서의 역학특성 에 있어서는 라미네이팅에 의해 전단특성이 가장 유의한 변화를 나타내었다. 전단강성(G)과 전단 히스테리시스 (2HG,2HG5)모두 증가하였고, primary hand value 중에서는 stiffness 가장 현저한 증가를 나타내었다
