This article has been directed to Environment Protection Technology with the purpose of providing a new instrument designed and developed measure filtration efficiency through relationship between clean cloth fabric structural parameters, dust test measuring variables. Fabric samples used throughout present study were woven cotton 100%, polyester 100% cotton/polyester 50/50%. The warp count: 30...

This paper reviews studies of the environmental impact of textile reuse and recycling, to provide a summary of the current knowledge and point out areas for further research. Forty-one studies were reviewed, whereof 85% deal with recycling and 41% with reuse (27% cover both reuse and recycling). Fibre recycling is the most studied recycling type (57%), followed by polymer/oligomer recycling (37...

The aim of this work was to study the possibility of using a new commercial polyester/cotton fabric to repair large sized umbilical and abdominal hernias in calves and small ruminants. Twenty-four animals (16 calves, 3 buffalo calves, 4 sheep, 1 goat) with umbilical or abdominal hernia were included in this study. The diameter of hernial ring ranged from (12-25) cm. An underlay technique was us...

The current paper reports on the relase properties of conductive fabrics coated with proteinaceous microspheres containing a dye. The release of the dye was achieved by passing an electric current through the fabric. The conductivity of the polyester fibers resulted from nanosilver (Ag NPs) coated on the surface of these fibers. Both types of coatings (nanosilver coating and the coating of the ...

In poultry industry, cross-contamination due to processing equipment and contact surfaces is very common. This study examined the extent of bacterial attachment to 6 different types and design of conveyor belts: stainless steel-single loop, stainless steel-balance weave, polyurethane with mono-polyester fabric, acetal, polypropylene mesh top, and polypropylene. Clean conveyor belts were immerse...

This study optimized welding parameters on polyester fabric coated with PVC by applying high frequency technique. Taguchi experimental design was adopted in this evaluation. Three levels of width seam and time were applied analyzed ANOVA statistical method α = 0.05. The result shows that the input providing maximum failing load for warp weft directions are following: Width (27 mm) (12 s). 87.8 ...

A new hydrophobic hexyltrimethoxysilane (HTMS) coating for polyester fabric was successfully synthesized via a one-step water-based sol-gel method under acidic condition. Five different molar ratios of HTMS: water (1;40, 1:30, 1:20, 1:12 and 1:3) were prepared the solution deposited onto by simple dip-pad-cure process. The effect content on hydrophobicity evaluated manual testing treated sample...
