Abstract The current study concerns the valorization of waste rice hulls into value-added materials. To achieve this goal, first, extraction route mesoporous silica nanoparticles (SiO 2 NPs) from using citric acid as a carbon template was compared with that prepared by conventional methods incineration only. Both routes were performed at different temperatures 600 and 700°C, fabricated SiO NPs ...

This work aims to investigate the thermal comfort behaviour of polyester seamed fabric regarding change in sewing thread filaments fineness for two different seam classes: 514 and 607. Five samples were constructed with using micro-denier filament 16.66 tex made five numbers (38, 48, 108, 144 288). It was noticed that properties, air water vapour permeability, wicking can be improved if is thre...

--------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT----------------------------------------------------------Pilot plant composed of fabric filters integrated with the decentralized treatment plant ZECUwas tested for its ability to remove the suspended solids and organic matters presented as TSS, CODt and CODs from wastewater. The filters were made from scrim polyester non-woven fa...

Electrocardiography (ECG) is one of the most widely used diagnostic methods to examine heart situations. This paper focuses on development a textile-based electrode and study its ECG-detecting performance. We developed silver-printed textile electrodes via flat-screen printing silver ink knitted polyester fabric. The PET fabric stayed reasonably conductive after washing stretching, which makes ...

This article provides a knitting method for warp-knitted fabrics with good moisture management performance. By adjusting of the warp machine (mainly bar), design lay-up yarn, selection and let-off tension, yarn covering relationship has been adjusted. using two kinds fineness polyester DTY, cotton spandex, designing warp-knitting structures, six different have knitted. The performance these kni...

Most softening agents, such as rinse cycle fabric softeners, used by consumers at home contain cationic surfactants that have two long alkyl chains as their main component. The softening mechanism on fibers, especially cotton, has not yet been scientifically established, despite the market prevalence of fabric softeners for decades. One explanation for the softening effect is that the friction ...

This study investigates the effects of fabric properties and ultrasonic welding on performance surgical gowns. For this purpose, eight spunlace fabrics with different structural were provided. First, fabrics’ thickness, tensile strength, elongation at break, air permeability, drape behavior, surface friction investigated. Then sewn sewing machine. Afterward, seam permeability behavior tested. T...

Riverine tsetse transmit the parasites that cause the most prevalent form of human African trypanosomiasis, Gambian HAT. In response to the imperative for cheap and efficient tsetse control, insecticide-treated 'tiny targets' have been developed through refinement of tsetse attractants based on blue fabric panels. However, modern blue polyesters used for this purpose attract many less tsetse th...
