Fibre blend should be composed regarding the requirements and allowable price of the textile end product. Using the appropriate raw material and optimised fibre blends we can influence the mechanical properties and regularity of a yarn as well as significantly reduce the number of yarn faults. The contribution presents a study of the influence of quality characteristics of cotton fibres and con...

3D textile model plays an important role in textile engineering. However, not much work focus on high-quality 3D textile reconstruction. The texture is also limited by photography methods in 3D scanning. This paper presents a novel framework of reconstructing a high-quality 3D textile model with a synthesized texture. Firstly, a pipeline of 3D textile processing is proposed to obtain a better 3...

The use of nanotechnology in the textile industry has increased rapidly due to its unique and valuable properties. The present status of nanotechnology use in textiles is reviewed, with an emphasis on improving various properties of textiles.

Nanocomposites films of (polymer blend-ceramics) were prepared from (PVA-PAA) blend and (PVA-PAA) blend doped with niobium carbide nanoparticles for humidity sensors have low cost, easy fabrication, high sensitivity, lightweight and high corrosion resistance. The structural, electrical and optical properties of (PVA-PAA-NbC) nanocomposites have been studied. The D.C electrical properties of (PV...

Tearing strength is one of the important quality items finished woven fabrics. It refers to rupture a fabric progressively along line thread by thread. mainly depends on fibre, yarn and characteristics with mechanical chemical finishing treatments given fabric. From an industry point view, studying this characteristic essential urgent step because it reflects endurance extent end textile struct...

The recent challenge in textile supply chain management is the development of collaboration network which accommodates diverse concerns of various participants while explicitly recognizing interdependencies and promoting effective relationship management. This study is designed to suggest a collaboration network model for textile industry and apply it to establish a desirable framework for the ...

During the past 15 years NASA has taken the lead role in exploiting the benefits of textile reinforced composite materials for application to aircraft structures. The NASA Advanced Composites Technology (ACT) program was started in 1989 to develop composite primary structures for commercial transport airplanes with costs that are competitive with metal structures. As part of this program, sever...

Two textile research projects (one completed and one ongoing) are described, where physical inspirational tools are developed and tested with the aim of stimulating textile creativity and invention, i.e. the use of textile materials in new kinds of products, thus bringing textiles into new contexts. The first research project (completed) concerns how textile designers use new responsive materia...

BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY Thousands of workers are engaged in textile industry worldwide. Textile industry involves the use of different kinds of dyes which are known to possess carcinogenic properties. Solvents used in these industries are also associated with different health related hazards including cancer. In previous studies on textile and iron industries, the authors have reported genotoxic...
