material for military scarves
is wool. Wool has the power to
readily absorb and give off
moisture. It can absorb
moisture up to one-third of
its own weight. Synthetic
fibers can only absorb 2-3
percent of moisture before
they begin to feel wet. Wool
is harder to ignite than most
synthetic and cotton fibers
used in equivalent products
(higher ignition temperature);
it has lower rate of flame
spread, low heat release, and
low heat of combustion,
doesn't melt or drip, forms a
char which is insulating and
self-extinguishes. Wool is
static resistant as the
retention of moisture within
the fabric prevents a build up
of static electricity. Woolen
garments are much less likely
to spark or cling to the body.
