Abstract:

Engineering of superhydrophobic textile surfaces has gained significant scientific and industrial interest for its potential applications in outdoor wear and protective textiles, resulting in many publications especially on theoretical models and fabrication methods. In this review, progress in theoretical definitions to explain the wetting behavior and realization techniques for superhydrophobic textile surfaces is discussed. Firstly, theoretical models from Young, Wenzel, and Cassie-Baxter to the more recent re-entrant angle model are overviewed to understand the design strategy for superhydrophobic surfaces. Secondly, major surface manipulation techniques to produce superhydrophobic textiles were reviewed for: modification of surface energy, addition of surface roughness by depositing or growing nanoparticles either in spherical form or in high aspect ratio, etching by plasma or caustic chemicals. Particular attention is paid to evaluation methods to measure the level of hydrophobicity for superhydrophobic textile surfaces, as a limitation of static water contact angle (WCA) on differentiating superhydrophobic surfaces has been reported elsewhere. The challenges in application of superhydrophobic textiles to clothing materials in terms of comfort properties and durability are discussed with the suggestion of further research opportunities to expand the application.

Abstract:

ZnO/SiO2 core/shell particles were fabricated and coated on poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) textiles, followed by hydrophobization with hexadecyltrimethoxysilane, to achieve superdrophobic surfaces with UV-shielding property. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was employed to reveal the fabrication of ZnO/SiO2 core/shell particles. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was conducted to investigate the surface morphologies of the textile and the coating of the fibers. UV-Vis spectrophotometry and contact angle measurement indicated that the incorporation of ZnO onto fibers imparted UV-blocking property to the textile surface, while the coating of SiO2 shell on ZnO made the superhydrophobicity of the as-treated PET textile surface UV-durable.

Abstract:

The study focuses on the effects of Ag (silver) and Ti (titanium) ions on textiles by MEVVA (metal vapor vacuum arc) ion implantation. In order to comprehend this, the research was executed in three parts. In the first part, the antibacterial efficiencies of Ag and TiO2 were investigated in detail since the antibacterial capabilities of Ag and TiO2 are well known. A group of polyester- and cotton-based medical textiles were modified by Ag and TiO2 ions, with doses ranging from 5 × 1015 to 5 × 1016 ion/cm2. To determine the adhesion capabilities of the implanted ions on surfaces, after the first round of antibacterial tests, these medical textiles were washed 30 times, and then antibacterial tests were performed for the second time. The results were also compared with nanoparticle-treated medical textiles. In the second part, the corrosion and friction capabilities of Ag and Ti ion-implanted polyester textiles, with a dose of 5 × 1015 ion/cm2, were investigated. Finally, the UV protection capabilities of Ag and Ti ion-implanted polyester textiles, with a dose of 5 × 1015 ion/cm2, were investigated. The experiments showed that even after 30 washes, the TiO2 ion-implanted polyester textile had almost 85% antibacterial efficiency. In addition, Ti ion implantation reduced the friction coefficiency of a polyester textile by almost 50% when compared with an untreated textile. Finally, the Ag-ion-implanted polyester textile provided a UV protection factor of 30, which is classified as very good protection.

Abstract:

Demand for wearable and portable electronic devices has increased, raising interest in electronic textiles (e-textiles). E-textiles have been produced using various materials including carbon nanotubes, graphene, and graphene oxide. Among the materials in this minireview, we introduce e-textiles fabricated with graphene oxide (GO) coating, using commercial textiles. GO-coated cotton, nylon, polyester, and silk are reported. The GO-coated commercial textiles were reduced chemically and thermally. The maximum e-textile conductivity of about 10 S/cm was achieved in GO-coated silk. We also introduce an e-textile made of uncoated silk. The silk-based e-textiles were obtained using a simple heat treatment with axial tension. The conductivity of the e-textiles was over 100 S/cm.

Abstract:

The article presents results of a study of “textile ceramics” – impressions of textiles on walls of ceramic vessels – from the Early Bronze Age fortified settlement of Bruszczewo (Greater Poland). On the basis of silicone impressions, an analysis of spinning and twisting directions, as well as textile density, structures, and techniques can be conducted along with their differentiation into twists, threads, non-woven fabrics, tabby weaves, and sprang. The position of impressions on the surfaces of the vessels, as well as a discussion concerning practical, ornamental, and symbolic meaning behind the impressions, allow for formulating interpretations in terms of functions and use of “textile ceramics”. A close examination of the “textile ceramics” from Bruszczewo against the broader context of the Northern and Central European material indicates that production of ceramics in prehistory was predominantly performed with secondarily used damaged textiles.

Abstract:

In recent years, special attention has been paid to studying the properties of hydrophobic surfaces of textile materials. The authors provide an overview of the applied textile-processing chemicals and of the methods for imparting hydrophobic properties to textile materials. According to the analysis, it was found that waterand splash-proofing treatment occupies an important place in the finishing processes of textile materials, contributing to a change in their characteristics. The purpose of the research is the development of hydrophobic textile materials for the work clothes production. The aqueous solution based on organosilicon compounds was used for textiles hydrophobization with retention of their performance and hygienic characteristics. The research results of the effect of aqueous solutions based on silane (A-1100 and A-187 trademarks) on the hydrophobic characteristics of textile materials is presented in the article.

Abstract:

Textiles are evaluated mainly in regard to their visual appearance and technical features of textile production. From a modern point of view, it is their optical perception that is most often displayed in reconstructions. This, however, can rarely be achieved due to the poor and fragmentary preservation of archaeological textiles, which hinders gathering basic information about details of the production technique. Sources illustrating garments or putative textile patterns are often additionally consulted to achieve a better understanding of the textiles. Over the past two decades, the author has made an effort to present a different approach to textile archaeology, that is to demonstrate that the significance of textiles was predominantly governed by culture-specific production techniques whose differences were optical – i.e. at the first glance imperceptible even for experts. Textile patterns were predominantly applied during production. There was little subsequent embellishment where textiles acted as a carrier of the decoration. This means that patterns were rarely additionally integrated after the basic weave was complete, for instance as in the case of embroidery. In consequence, archaeological textiles assume a different cultural and historical significance than previously thought. They are not merely objects whose surfaces served as carriers for culture-specific patterns. In this context, embroidery is of particular significance, as it is a procedure for subsequent decoration of fabrics. In this article, the author presents prehistoric, including the Bronze and Iron Ages, textile finds that have been described as embroidery but are actually a combination of weaving and wrapping weaving techniques.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTThe antibacterial properties of boron-containing compounds are well known although there are limited studies available on the pure boron nanoparticles. In this study boron nano-particles were characterized in terms of their particle size, shape, stability and surface charge before and after they are applied to textile surfaces to study their impact on antibacterial activity in addition to cytotoxicity. It was observed that the boron nano-particles are affective in limiting bacteria growth on both gram-negative and gram-positive species without requiring any stimulation to initiate the antibacterial action. It was also found that the application of boron nano-particles on the textile surfaces through mixing them in hydrophobic finishing solutions helped improve the wettability performance of the textiles while showing no change in the physical and colour fastness properties at an optimal concentration of 0.02 % w/v of finishing solution.

Abstract:

AbstractThis review examines textile fibers and fabrics in the context of their interaction with various forms of energy, such as electromagnetic (photolytic), electrical, magnetic, thermal, chemical, and mechanical. This interaction can involve conversion, storage, or management of energy. Examples are described suggesting some new material configurations that could be incorporated into textiles to create special energy-interactive textile (EITX) structures. Areas discussed are the management of electron flow (electrical resistivity) and the absorption of mechanical energy in textile fibers and fabrics. Surface resistance studies on carbon nanotubes and conductive carbon-black-filled films of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and paraffin wax show that the electrical conductivity of these materials depends upon the matrix material type and the amount of charge-carrying particles in the matrix. PMMA films filled with carbon nanotubes are found to be more electrically conductive than matrices filled with conductive carbon black. Mechanical-energy interactions of flocked textile surfaces show that in compression, they exhibit unique, gradual load-deflection behavior. This effect should be useful in applications requiring impact-energy absorption. Finally, the functional steps in an integrated energy-interactive textile system are discussed.

Abstract:

A new measurement apparatus was developed to characterize the dynamic liquid moisture transfer properties of textile materials such as textile fabrics, based on the mechanical equipment, microelectronics, sensors and control system. Derived from the test data, five indices were defined to characterize the dynamic liquid moisture transfer difference between two surfaces of textile fabrics. The test principle and the evaluation method for the dynamic moisture transfer difference between two surfaces of textile fabrics were introduced. Six types of fabrics made from different textile materials were measured. The one-way ANOVA analysis was carried out to identify the significance of the differences of the indices among the test fabrics. The results show that each evaluation index is significantly different (P<0.05) among different test fabrics, and fabric 3 has a better liquid moisture transfer from inner surface to outer surface with the highest value of moisture transfer difference.

Abstract:

In the preforming process, the textile is draped into the geometry of the structural part and afterwards consolidated with resin via injection. For preforming processes non-crimp fabrics (NCFs) have become increasingly popular for cost effective applications. For the realization of automated draping of two-dimensional textiles into three-dimensional complex geometries during the preforming process there is a high advantage for the use of tailored textiles compared to textiles with uniform material properties. Large flat surfaces require a high bending stiffness and low shear stiffness due to high structural stability of the textile and small radii of curvature require a low bending stiffness due to good drapeability of the textile. The bending and the shear stiffness of NCFs with a given layup can be influenced by the manufacturing parameters of the knitting yarn. With tailored NCFs it is possible to adapt the manufacturing parameters of the knitting yarn locally in the production direction to improve drapeability and handling of the textile in the preforming process. To use the high potential of tailored NCFs, the development of the new textile structure has to go hand in hand with the characterization and with the simulation of the draping process. An experimental approach and a modelling approach using a kinematic drape algorithm have been developed to define the local stitching parameters for tailored NCFs dependent on the geometry of the component part.

Abstract:

It is well established that the water wettability of materials is governed by both the chemical composition and the geometrical microstructure of the surface.1 Traditional textile wet processing treatments do indeed rely fundamentally upon complete wetting out of a textile structure to achieve satisfactory performance.2 However, the complexities introduced through the heterogeneous nature of the fiber surfaces, the nature of the fiber composition and the actual construction of the textile material create difficulties in attempting to predict the exact wettability of a particular textile material. For many applications the ability of a finished fabric to exhibit water repellency (in other words low wettability) is essential2 and potential applications of highly water repellent textile materials include rainwear, upholstery, protective clothing, sportswear, and automobile interior fabrics. Recent research indicates that such applications may benefit from a new generation of water repellent materials that make use of the “lotus effect” to provide ultrahydrophobic textile materials.3,4 Ultrahydrophobic surfaces are typically termed as the surfaces that show a water contact angle greater than 150°C with very low contact angle hysteresis.4 In the case of textile materials, the level of hydrophobicity is often determined by measuring the static water contact angle only, since it is difficult to measure the contact angle hysteresis on a textile fabric because of the high levels of roughness inherent in textile structures.

Abstract:

Superhydrophobic and transparent surfaces on cotton fabrics have been developed using silica nanomaterials. Initially, trichlorododecylsilane was treated on the silica nanoparticles to lower the surface energy of the fabric. By simply spraying alcohol suspensions containing hydrophobized silica nanoparticles, extremely water repellent coatings were formed on the textile fabrics. The effect of three types of alcohol solvent on the hydrophobicity of the coated cotton fabrics was examined by measuring the surface wettability. The treated cotton textiles in methanol exhibited contact angles higher than 160°, contact angle hysteresis lower than 10°, and good water repellency. It proved to be essential to form hierarchical morphology in achieving superhydrophobicity.

Abstract:

In order to stand out from the competition, the quality of a product as subjectively perceived by the customer is becoming increasingly important. If one wants to meet the comprehensive customer requirements, it is no longer sufficient today to develop a product that focuses only on the functional aspects, but it must also fulfil the sensory requirements at the same time. In this paper, a systematic approach is described that first describes the objectification of customer language for describing the textile haptics of automotive interior materials (11 headliners and 15 seat materials). For this purpose, ten textile-specific descriptors were developed in an expert panel. The descriptors used and the measurement of the human-haptic system are summarized in 4 main groups: 1. warmth/cold sensation, 2. friction properties, 3. deformation, 4. surface/topography. Furthermore, the human-tactile parameters (pressure, speed) that humans exert when touching textile surfaces were determined. The human-sensory product evaluation of the textiles was carried out with 116 test persons. Comparative statistical analyses of the technical parameters (e.g. roughness, friction coefficient, wetting index, deformation) and the human characteristics made it possible to create a prognosis model for determining the quality perception of textile car interior materials.

Abstract:

Color is a phenomenon which is perceived through the amount of the presence of light and it may show variability depending on a lot of different factor. These factors can be sorted as color of the surrounding place, environmental factors, intensity of the enlightening light source, incidence angle of the light, form and direction of incidence, amount of light etc. Visual perception of the color in textile fabrics is absorbation of some part of the light which falls on fabrics and detraction of the other part through reflection. The reason why textile seems colored in here is it’s reflecting light. Light is a pathfinder for distinction and identification of color, volume and fiber connections of relief surfaces. Color is a design element which presents wide options for weaving and provides dynamism on the surface via light reflections during creation process. Relief perception in textile fabrics is able to be strengthened with numerouseffects by being evaluated diversely, in terms of material (raw material type that is used, properties of warp and weft strings) and in terms of manufacturing methods (construction and technique of braid during weaving, special techniques that are applied after weaving), thus the light being obtained is able to create different perceptions via numerous effects like shadow, fiber, volume etc. Encolouring on textiles can be fulfilled by both using the colored strings and materials during manufacturing process and putting textiles to some special practices like painting or printing. When the visual and physical properties which make up textile fabrics are taken into account, it turns out that color makes visual contribution rather than physical value. In this study, relief effect in the textile fabric is examined only with the color factor. In the study that is prepared by using descriptive research method, the contribution of colour factor in terms of material and production methods to relief effect is explained with appropriate examples.

Abstract:

Among the various advanced materials, flame-retardant cellulosic textiles are important as they directly relate to human health and hazards. The use of environmentally friendly flame-retardant coatings is currently one of the major concerns in the textile coating industry. In this work, acrylic acid was grafted onto the surface of cotton using plasma technology to enhance the attachment of acrylate phosphate monomer. Surface analyses, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) and attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), were carried out to characterize the coating. Textile properties such as wettability and mechanical properties of untreated and treated cotton samples were investigated. A laundering test was also performed to predict the durability of the finishing. The outcomes revealed that acrylic acid-grafted samples treated with acrylate phosphate monomer have good flame-retardant properties.

Abstract:

Cost-optimized materials and processes are the key to high-performance components at attractive production costs. This study shows that non crimp fabrics (NCF) used as inner layers of high performance Class-A cfrp parts can lead to unwanted print-through effects on Class-A composite surfaces, even though they are not the surface layer. This surface distortion that is expressed in scattered lines in the direction of inner NCF layers can lead to high reject rates and is normally first noticed in the painted state. The presented methodology is able to quantify this secondaryprint-through effect for cured composites as well as for the dry textile intermediates. The surface can be measured with conventional measuring techniques, such as laser triangulation or interferometers, and characterized with the standardized values Sz and Sz25. The results show that the visible and measurable more uneven surface of a 50k biaxial NCF leads to significantly higher Sz and Sz25 values in the dry textile and the cured component. Also the regularity of the measured textiles can be detected by determining the variation of different areas of a 800 by 800mm sized sample. The presented methodology has the potential to optimize the incoming goods inspection of high volume Class-A composite manufacturers, as well as the requirement-orientated and cost-efficient development of textile intermediates by suppliers.

Abstract:

This paper presents the aspects concerning the mathematical distribution of metal microparticles on the textile surfaces to model the electroconductive properties of the textiles obtained by a printing method using electroconductive paste based on polyethylene glycol (PEG)/polyurethane (PU) and micro/nanoparticle (nickel, silver, and copper). A direct relationship between surface conductivity and surface pH and an inverse relation surface resistance and pH was observed. Besides this, in this paper, we analyzed the dependences between conductivity, pH and surface resistance by using covariance between two vectors (cov(pH, Rs), cov(C, pH), cov(C, Rs)). The purpose of this research is to define a particles distribution that could be useful in establishing the correct distribution of the microparticles for obtaining the surface with antistatic/dissipative, and conductive properties for sensors or electromagnetic shields.

Abstract:

Electroconductive cotton textile has been prepared by a simple dipping-drying coating technique using safely functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs). Owing to the surface functional groups, thef-MWCNTs become strongly attached with the cotton fibers forming network armors on their surfaces. As a result, the textile exhibits enhanced electrical properties with improved thermal conductivity and therefore is demonstrated as a flexible electrothermal heating element. The fabricatedf-MWCNTs/cotton textile can be heated uniformly from room temperature toca. 100°C within few minutes depending on the applied voltage. The textile shows good thermal stability and repeatability during a long-term heating test.

Full text

Abstract:

This paper investigates the effects of the reinforcement ratio, volume fraction of steel fibers, and prestressing on the uniaxial tensile behavior of carbon textile reinforced mortar (CTRM) through uniaxial tensile tests. The results show that the tensile strength of CTRM specimens increases with the reinforcement ratio, however the textile–matrix bond strength becomes weaker and debonding can occur. Short steel fibers are able to improve the mechanical properties of the entire CTRM composite and provide additional “shear resistant ability” to enhance the textile– matrix bond strength, resulting in finer cracks with smaller spacing and width. Investigations into the fracture surfaces using an optical microscope clarify these inferences. Increases in first-crack stress and tensile strength are also observed in prestressed TRM specimens. In this study, the combination of 1% steel fibers and prestressing at 15% of the ultimate tensile strength of two-layer textiles is found to be the optimum configuration, producing the highest first-crack stress and tensile strength and the most reasonable multi-cracking pattern.

Abstract:

Low-temperature plasma technologyboth glow discharge under reduced pressure as well as barrier discharge under normal pressureare well established in different industrial applications. Since recently, however, the plasma technology is being introduced in textile industry as well. Fields of application are desizing, functionalizing, and design of surface properties of textile fibers. Plasma technology is suitable to modify the chemical structure as well as the topography of the surface of the material. Examples of natural as well as man-made fibers prove the enormous potential of plasma treatment of textile materials. It has proven to be successful in shrink-resist treatment of wool with a simultaneously positive effect on the dyeing and printing. Not only the chemical structure of the surface is modified using different plasma gases but also the topography of the surface. A highly hydrophobic surface with a particular surface topography in contact with water is extremely dust- and dirt-repellent and hence should be also repellent to bacteria and fungi. Man-made fibers to be used under chemical stress are modified with diffusion-barrier layers on their surfaces without modifying the bulk properties; hence, the stability of those fibers is significantly improved.

Abstract:

This paper presents aspects concerning the bivariate analysis of the textiles surfaces treated by RF plasma technologies (Ar RF plasma and SF6 RF plasma) to obtain the hydrophobic effect. Besides this, it was studied the remnant or temporary hydrophobic effect obtained by polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) thin-film by physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique and SF6 RF plasma technique. In this paper, there are presented the bivariate analysis of the parameters and characterization of hydrophobic textile samples (cotton 100% with mass 401 g/m2) by investigation of the water contact angle using the device VCA OPTIMA and resistance to surface wetting by James Heal spray tester. The morphological modification of the textile was evaluated by scanning electron microscope with magnification x8000. Following these investigations there has been observed that the treatment with polytetrafluoroethylene is even more harmful to the environment, offering a hydrophobic effect resistant in time, for approximative 101 days, and the treatment by SF6 RF plasma confer a temporary effect for 24 hours.

Abstract:

The rapid growth in wearable technology has recently stimulated the development of conductive textiles for broad application purposes, i.e., wearable electronics, heat generators, sensors, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, optoelectronic and photonics. Textile material, which was always considered just as the interface between the wearer and the environment, now plays a more active role in different sectors, such as sport, healthcare, security, entertainment, military, and technical sectors, etc. This expansion in applied development of e-textiles is governed by a vast amount of research work conducted by increasingly interdisciplinary teams and presented systematic review highlights and assesses, in a comprehensive manner, recent research in the field of conductive textiles and their potential application for wearable electronics (so called e-textiles), as well as development of advanced application techniques to obtain conductivity, with emphasis on metal-containing coatings. Furthermore, an overview of protective compounds was provided, which are suitable for the protection of metallized textile surfaces against corrosion, mechanical forces, abrasion, and other external factors, influencing negatively on the adhesion and durability of the conductive layers during textiles’ lifetime (wear and care). The challenges, drawbacks and further opportunities in these fields are also discussed critically.

Abstract:

The objective of this study was to investigate the uniformity and penetration of surface modification into textile materials including fiber, yarn and fabric treated by atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ). Exposure to helium/oxygen plasma at atmospheric pressure made improvement in the wettability, dyeability, adhesion of single fiber, yarn and woven fabric. The results showed that such a plasma jet was possible and effective in penetration of surface modification into textile structure. It can treat the whole surfaces of a single fiber, yarn filament in the treated parallel filament tow uniformly. For porous fabrics, rapid and efficient treatment on both sides of the treated samples was found to be ensured. And the degree and depth of penetration depended on the penetration of active species in plasma jet, which was affected by plasma parameters and materials structure. The former included treatment time, power, gas temperature, jet-to-substrate distance. The latter included number of twisting and fabric pore size. These findings would have important effects on industrialization of textiles treated by atmospheric pressure plasma jet.

Abstract:

The article presents data on the influence of the marine environment on textile materials. Aggressive components of the marine environment that contact the surface of clothing (sea salt and oil) are justified. Sea salt is an integral part of seawater. It accumulates in the clothing structure. Oil is included in the components of seawater in emergency situations at offshore oil and petroleum products and sea transport facilities. This leads to a change in the properties of textile materials, which depend on the concentration of aggressive components in the structure of textile materials. The active concentration of aggressive components in textiles is determined by its ability to absorb liquid. Specific features of changing the volume of various textile fibers during interaction with liquids are established. Structure of sea salt and the chemical composition of oil. This determines the change in the properties of the textile in contact with them. The structure of sea salt and the chemical composition of oil is justified. This determines the change in the properties of textiles. As a result of the systematization of modern data on clothing materials that are used in marine technology, the information base of the leading modern fibrous materials for protective clothing was formed. The reference materials for research are allocated. It was found that the presence of sea salt in a moist contact medium with a surface of a special fabric on a cotton basis for all samples of materials led to a decrease in their capillarity. It has been established that packages of materials based on mixed-fiber fabrics have permeability parameters with respect to crude oil below the cotton garment surfaces. The application in combination with such materials of holofiber insulation reduces the level of saturation of clothing with the liquids examined. The article presents experimental data on the permeability of sea water and oil in special materials for clothing. The work was supported by the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia in the Don State Technical University within the framework of the State task 2017-2019 under the project No. 11.9194.2017/БЧ.

Abstract:

The natural world around us provides excellent examples of functional systems built with a handful of materials. Throughout the millennia, nature has evolved to adapt and develop highly sophisticated methods to solve problems. There are numerous examples of functional surfaces, fibrous structures, structural colours, self-healing, thermal insulation, etc., which offer important lessons for the textile products of the future. This paper provides a general overview of the potential of bioinspired textile structures by highlighting a few specific examples of pertinent, inherently sustainable biological systems. Biomimetic research is a rapidly growing field and its true potential in the development of new and sustainable textiles can only be realized through interdisciplinary research rooted in a holistic understanding of nature.

Abstract:

Continuous fibre reinforcements in thermoplastic composites require an enhanced adhesion to the matrix component, in order to effectively divert external forces from the matrix. Therefore different silanes as adhesion promoters are used as a part of the sizing. They operate as a connector to the matrix component. These silanes affect the sliding properties of the sizing during the production of the glass filaments in a negative way, in which case the proportion of the adhesion promoter in the sizing must be kept at a low level in order to maintain the processing speed in the textile production process. With the immersion bath method, it was examined whether the treatment of the surface of textile fabric after the textile production process with a silane-containing aqueous solution could solve these problems. Different silane concentrations and solvents were considered. After drying the textiles were processed during a two-step pressing process directly into a multi-layer organic sheet with a textile-based polypropylene matrix. The successful layering of the adhesion promoter on the glass fibre surface was verified by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. With thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), the thermal resistance of the adhesion-promoting layer for the subsequent pressing process could be shown. In order to examine the influence of the layer on the fibre/matrix adhesion within the composites, the Young’s modulus and flexural modulus of the composite panels were determined. Impact experiments were made to measure the required penetration energy and the energy absorption capacity of the composite panels. An optimum for the amount of adhesion promoter could be found. Exceeding the optimum amount of adhesion promoter in the solution led to a decrease in the mechanical properties of the composite.

Full text

Abstract:

Triboelectric charges on textiles dissipate through a charge conduction mechanism and also by accompanying water molecules evaporating into air. The latter dissipation is less extensive than the former, but can be measured quantitatively under highly insulated experimental conditions. Rate constants of charge dissipation into the air at 20°C have been reported as a function of the ambient humidity and water content of fabrics. In this study, the rate constants are analyzed at temperatures above or below 20°C. Two kinds of water molecules, free and bound, are known to be present in the textile surface from charge dissipation analysis. Though free water is involved in atmospheric charge dissipation, the condition of water molecules in the fibers cannot be classified so simply. Rate constants of charge dissipation depend on the ambient absolute humidity and water content of sample fabrics for all the temperatures of these experiments.

Abstract:

The inkjet-printing technique was used to deposit a commercial silver nanoparticle ink in order to fabricate the electro-conductive layers directly on the different natural, synthetic, blend and mineral textile fabric surfaces with simultaneous sintering at 130℃ during printing process. This modification eliminated the necessity of sintering of silver prints in a box oven and significantly minimised ink spreading over the fabric. The silver nanoink used was characterised by means of ultraviolet-visible spectrometry, dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. The changes in surface resistance of the fabrics with the silver-deposited layers have been measured by means of the four-probe method. The morphology of the silver layers has been observed by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The conducting layers were also characterised chemically by means of energy dispersive spectroscopy. The changes in surface resistance of the silver inkjet-printed textiles were evaluated in the bending tests and after the rubbing, washing and dry-cleaning processes. The obtained results proved that the proposed shape-programmed inkjet-printing method was very simple, giving an excellent adhesion of the inkjet-printed silver layers to the substrates and ensuring a very low surface resistance. The studies have confirmed the usefulness of the ink applied for inkjet printing of silver electrodes and their good tolerance to bending, washing and dry-cleaning processes.

Abstract:

The development of textile finishing with improved functional properties has been a growing interest among industry and scientists worldwide. The recent global pandemic also enhanced the awareness amongst many toward improved hygiene and the use of antimicrobial textiles. Generally, natural herbal components are known to possess antimicrobial properties which are green and eco-friendly. This research reports a novel and innovative method of developing and optimising nano-emulsions using two combinations of herbal extracts produced from Moringa Oleifera, curry leaf, coconut oil (nano-emulsion 1) and other using Aegle marmelos with curry leaf and coconut oil (nano-emulsion 2). Nano-emulsions were optimised for their pH, thermal stability, and particle size, and percentage add-on. Organic cotton fabrics (20 and 60 gsm) were finished with nano-emulsions using continuous and batch processes and characterised for their surface morphology using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. The finished fabrics were evaluated for their Whiteness Index, assessed for antimicrobial resistance against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli) using AATCC 100 and 147 methods. In addition, fabrics were assessed for their antifungal efficacy (AATCC 30), tensile strength and air permeability. Results suggested that finished organic fabrics with nano-emulsions had antimicrobial resistance, antifungal, wash fastness after 20 washing cycles, and sufficient strength. This novel finishing method suggests that organic cotton fabrics treated with nano-emulsions can be used as a durable antimicrobial textile for healthcare and hygiene textiles.

Abstract:

AbstractThe rigid surface of the conventional PCB-based capacitive electrode produces an undefined distance between the skin and the electrode surface. Therefore, the capacitance introduced by them is uncertain and can vary from electrode to electrode due to their different positions on the scalp. However, textile electrodes which use conductive fabric as electrode surfaces, are bendable over the scalp. Therefore, it provides a certain value of the capacitance which is predictable and calculable accurately if the effective distance to the scalp surface can be determined. In this paper noise characteristics of textile electrodes with different fabric sizes as electrode’s surface and capacity calculations related to each size are presented to determine the effective distances for each electrode size.

Abstract:

Within the framework of the bilateral CORNET projects MeTexCom and MeTexCom2, new approaches were developed and tested to improve the adhesion strength of metal textile composites, with a focus on the targeted roughening of aluminum surfaces and the development of new acoustically insulating nonwovens. The metal textile composites were produced by melting thermoplastic components of the textile composites without a separately applied adhesive.For improved adhesion strength between metal and textile, roughness was generated on the metal surface by means of a novel arc treatment by an anodic polarized TIG process or a cw (continuous wave) fiber laser process. On the one hand, the goal was to produce uniformly rough, untercut surface structures in micro-and nanodimension by means of a highly dynamic arcing process. On the other hand, a similar approach was pursued with the cw laser method by using a single-mode as well as a multi-mode laser.

Abstract:

Human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have the potential to serve as a model for human cardiomyocytes. However, hiPSC-CMs are still considered immature. CMs differentiated from hiPSCs more resemble fetal than adult cardiomyocytes. Putative factors enhancing maturation include in vitro culture duration, culture surface topography, and mechanical, chemical, and electrical stimulation. Stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes are traditionally cultured on glass surfaces coated with extracellular matrix derivatives such as gelatin. hiPSC-CMs are flat and round and their sarcomeres are randomly distributed and unorganized. Morphology can be enhanced by culturing cells on surfaces providing topographical cues to the cells. In this study, a textile based-culturing method used to enhance the maturation status of hiPSC-CMs is presented. Gelatin-coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-based textiles were used as the culturing surface for hiPSC-CMs and the effects of the textiles on the maturation status of the hiPSC-CMs were assessed. The hiPSC-CMs were characterized by analyzing their morphology, sarcomere organization, expression of cardiac specific genes, and calcium handling. We show that the topographical cues improve the structure of the hiPSC-CMs in vitro. Human iPSC-CMs grown on PET textiles demonstrated improved structural properties such as rod-shape structure and increased sarcomere orientation.

Abstract:

The purpose of this work was to prepare chitosan–essential oil microcapsules using the simple coacervation method and to graft them onto cellulosic fibers to obtain bio functional textile. The microcapsules morphology was characterized by optical microscopy. The 2D dimethyloldihydroxyethylene urea resin (DMDHEU) was used as a binding agent to graft microcapsules on the surface of cellulosic fibers. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) photographs and Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transformed Infrared (ATR-FTIR) analyses were performed to prove the interaction between cellulosic fibers and microcapsules. Furthermore, the properties of the different fabrics such as mechanical strength and air permeability were investigated. Furthermore, washing durability was evaluated. Finally, the antibacterial activity of the finished fibers against the strains Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) was evaluated. The results evidence the ability of treated fabrics to induce bacteria growth inhibition. The coacervation method is a simple process to incorporate cinnamon essential oil on the cellulosic fiber’s surface. The use of essential oils as active agents seems to be a promising tool for many protective textile substrates such as antimicrobial masks, bacteriostatic fabrics and healthcare textiles.

Abstract:

In recent years, new textile materials have been developed through the use of nanotechnology-based tools. The development of textile surfaces with self-cleaning properties has a large combined potential to reduce the environmental impact related to pollution. In this research work, three types of textiles substrates (cotton, Entretela, and polylactic acid (PLA)) were functionalized with titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) using chemical and mechanical processes (padding). During the functionalization process, two different methods were used, both of which allowed a good fixation of nanoparticles of TiO2on textile substrates. The samples were examined for morphology and for photocatalytic properties under visible light irradiation. A study aimed at evaluating the effect of pH of the aqueous solution of TiO2nanoparticles was performed in order to promote interaction between TiO2and the dye solution rhodamine B (Rh-B). The TiO2nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The measurement of the zeta potential of the TiO2nanoparticle solution proved to be always positive and have low colloidal stability. Chromatography (HPLC and GC-MS) analyses confirm that oxalic acid is the intermediate compound formed during the photodegradation process.
