This research is mainly concerned with producing fabrics suitable for raincoats, which is considered the
main protection garment beside hoods, ponchos ….etc. which used to provide protection to the body from rain
showers .All samples under study were produced of polyester yarns 50, 70 and 100 denier .Three weft sets were
used 60, 80 and 100 picks /cm and three fabric structure (plain weave 1/1, twill 1/4 and satin 5). Samples were
coated using P.V.C in order to produce a waterproof, moisture vapor permeable laminated fabrics and having
perforation to provide ventilation to the user. Their influence on the performance of the end-use fabric and the
achieved properties were studied. On the other hand physic-chemical properties including, tensile strength and
elongation, abrasion resistance, water permeability, water repellency, tear resistance, thickness and weight were
evaluated according to the final product needs. Some more results were reached concerning structures and materials.
Most samples have achieved the expected results.
