Characterisation of Barrier Effects in Footwear

  • Chapter
Multifunctional Barriers for Flexible Structure

Part of the book series: Materials Science ((SSMATERIALS,volume 97))

Footwear is designed to provide comfort, pleasure and protect feet from hard and rough surfaces, as well as climate environmental exposure and in some cases aggressive conditions like protective footwear. Actually, consumers expectations and needs demand development of footwear that integrates fashion, emotional desires and real multifunctional performance namely barrier effect to water and other liquids, thermal insulation, fire resistance or microorganisms resistance.
