In this study, the thermal conductivity of 2D woven composites was investigated by optimizing the fabric structures to enhance the through-thickness and in-plane thermal conductivities. Multiscale finite element models were developed to simulate the thermal behavior of various 2D fabric structures and evaluate their thermal performance under varying conditions, focusing on the effects of fiber tow undulation, dry-zone porosity, and matrix-rich zones. Fabric architectures were selected based on common 2D weavings of composites. The results showed that the tow undulation substantially enhanced the through-thickness conductivity and mitigated the impact of porosity. In addition, a higher tow anisotropy increased the effect of undulation. Moreover, the plain-weave fabric structures exhibited the highest through-thickness and in-plane thermal conductivities among the evaluated 2D woven fabrics in porous composites. Finally, the matrix-rich zones showed a stronger effect on the through-thickness than on the in-plane thermal conductivity of the 2D woven composites.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140586021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most of the wall materials of sandwich insulation wall panels are made of ordinary concrete or lightweight concrete, which causes the wall panels to be too thick and heavy, and there are problems associated with poor durability and high energy consumption. Textile-reinforced engineered cementitious composite (TRE) materials have excellent mechanical properties, toughness and durability. Therefore, a type of sandwich insulation wall panel (SIWP) was constructed using textile-reinforced engineered cementitious composites (TRE) as the inner and outer wythes. Its good crack control ability and tensile performance can compensate for the brittle cracking and shedding of ordinary concrete sandwich insulation wall panels. Through a four-point bending test, the bending performance of the TRE sandwich insulation wall panel (TRE-SIWP) was analyzed from three aspects: failure mode, load-midspan deflection curve and ductility. The research variables included the number of hot rain cycles, the thickness of the TRE wythes, the hot rain environment, the thermal insulation layer type and thickness, and the number of heating-freezing cycles. The results show the that hot-rain cycles had the least effect on the specimen with a rock wool board, and they caused more damage to the TRE wythes than they did to the insulation board. Increasing the thickness of the insulation layer and TRE width could improve the flexural bearing capacity and stiffness of the TRE-SIWPs.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140586020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research experimentally studies the efficacy of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) roll-to-roll plasma treatment with or without water vapor post-exposure as a novel method to modify polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surfaces to enhance hydrophilicity, color performance, and printing quality. The Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to design experiments, and the optimum conditions were analyzed through statistical calculations. Their results were examined using Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), and Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infra-Red spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) tests. Qualitative and quantitative tests for color performance and wicking test used for hydrophilicity assessment confirms the effectiveness of this Green inline pretreatment for industries to enhance direct sublimation inkjet printing quality on PET by a decrease in absorption time from 12051 to 202 s and an increase in the color depth to 12.49%, 25.89 and 18.07% for Cyan, Magenta and Key (black) respectively. One of the stable optimum conditions in which three printed colors: Cyan, Magenta, and Black (Key), show high-quality color performance is at 15 processing rounds, 2 m/min velocity in the absence or presence of water vapor post-exposure. Water vapor post-exposure exhibits a beneficial, economic effect along with plasma treatment. The results show that the chemical modification aspect of this treatment plays a more significant role in printing quality enhancement than its morphological modification.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140602875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Exploring the addition of layers with coatings like silicon dioxide deposition, rice ash deposition, and aluminum oxide particles, the investigation revealed significant enhancements. A solitary silk layer exclusively coated with resin exhibited improvements of approximately 37.07%, 29.21%, and 13.47% in stab resistance for rice ash, aluminum oxide, and silicon oxide particles, respectively. The specific knife penetration depth indicated that the coating is more effective in diminishing penetration depth. The research identified that 7 layers of pure silk and 3 layers coated with rice ash satisfy National Institute of Justice Standard–0115.00, S1 as 26 layers of silk fabric, demonstrating a reduction without compromising protective efficacy.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"170 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140602079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Initially, the tensile strength, elongation at break, elastic modulus, tear strength, and apparent properties (transmittance, reflectivity, and conjugated double bond absorption area) of the membrane material were measured through uniaxial tensile testing, trapezoidal tear testing, and ultraviolet (UV) testing. These measurement results were then compared and analyzed in relation to tear strength and apparent properties under artificially accelerated aging conditions. The results indicate that UV irradiation and 2 MPa prestress play a crucial role in the degradation of PVDF membrane material properties. Finally, an enhanced Arrhenius equation, accounting for the triple effects of irradiation, oxygen pressure, and temperature, and Schwarzschild’s law, were employed to establish a correlation between natural (2 MPa prestress) and artificially accelerated aging performance of PVDF. The results demonstrate that the enhanced Arrhenius equation provides a more accurate prediction compared to Schwarzschild’s law.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140323931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specific changes occurred only in the material used when various synthetic fibres gradually replaced cotton. However, with the development of additive technologies, the possibility of changing the production technology is coming to the fore, when industrial textiles produced by classic weaving will not be used to make the carcass but a structure built by 3D printing. Confirmation of this change would represent a revolutionary breakthrough in the technology for rubber-textile conveyor belt production. Based on these facts, the possibility of using continuous 3D printing technology was verified to print a structure that would replace the technical fabric used in the conveyor belt carcass. As part of the research, the Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), and Stereolithography (SLA) technologies were verified. Experimental specimens with the dimensions of 145 x 145 x 185 mm were produced in three different positions: at an angle (45°), horizontally, and vertically. The specimens were made of three types of filament: SLA (Elastic 50A), SLS (TPU 1301), and FDM (Flexfill 92A); for each of the three positions of the specimen, filament consumption and printing time were determined due to the use of support material. Created specimens were then assessed regarding their production possibility and achievement of the desired structure.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140323733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, a 100% recycled polyester weft-knitted fabric, currently used by commercial brands in the apparel and sport textile industry, is calendered and its properties are examined before and after such treatment. This research investigates variations in the physical (appearance and thickness), mechanical (tensile strength and elastic recovery), and physiological (water vapour resistance, spray test, and wettability) characteristics of the samples. The calendering treatment reduces water vapour resistance up to 23%, which is particularly interesting for garments used in sports. Additionally, the contact angle is increased by the calendering process which translates in poorer wettability. Novel findings of this work include that, whereas in the original fabric sweat marks are visible, sweat stains do not appear on the calendered fabric and moisture management improves, while mechanical properties do not undergo significant changes. These results have not been previosly found in the literature, giving a particular interest to a conventional process in this type of recycled fiber that can contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the textile industry and enhance the performance of treated fabrics. All these aspects make the treatment particularly interesting to improve the technical performance of the textile material while using an economic treatment with low effect on the environment.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140316511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the experiment, silver-coated yarn was chosen to produce knitted fabrics with two different patterns and three levels of stitch densities. The uniaxial and biaxial deformation was applied to samples and at the same time, the change of electromagnetic shielding ability, electric resistance, and porosity of the sample set was evaluated. It can be summarized, that the vertical stretch has the highest positive effect on the electromagnetic shielding ability and the maximum shielding sensitivity is 12 % compared to other deformation types. In general, the electrical resistance decreases during increased stretch due to the increasing number of contacts between electrically conductive yarns, which causes a decrease in the contact resistance and also a decrease in total electrical resistance. The highest positive effect on the porosity of samples represents biaxial deformation. The finding that the overall shielding efficiency is positively influenced by the electrical conductivity of the sample and at the same time negatively influenced by the increasing porosity during tensile deformation was the motivation to construct a simple regression model for the prediction of the electromagnetic shielding ability of the sample during its extension.","PeriodicalId":16097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Textiles","volume":"278 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140201774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, we propose an advanced preparation and characterization of an electrospun Polyurethane/Calcium Chloride (PU/CaCl<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>) nanocomposite scaffold, devised to boost the scaffold’s physicochemical and biological properties for skin tissue regeneration. By incorporating CaCl<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> into the PU matrix using an electrospinning process, we were able to fabricate a novel nanocomposite scaffold. The morphological examination through Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) revealed that the fiber diameter of the PU/CaCl2 (563 ± 147 nm) scaffold was notably smaller compared to the control (784 ± 149 nm). The presence of CaCl<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> in the PU matrix was corroborated by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). Furthermore, the PU/CaCl<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> scaffold exhibited superior tensile strength (10.81 MPa) over pristine PU (Tensile −6.16 MPa, Contact angle - 109° ± 1° and Roughness - 854 ± 32 nm) and revealed enhanced wettability (72° ± 2°) and reduced surface roughness (274 ± 104 nm), as verified by Contact angle and Atomic Force Microscopy. The developed scaffold demonstrated improved anticoagulant properties, indicating its potential for successful integration within a biological environment. The improved properties of the PU/CaCl<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> nanocomposite scaffold present a significant advancement in electrospun polymer nanofibers, offering a potential breakthrough in skin tissue engineering. However, additional studies are required to thoroughly evaluate the scaffold’s effectiveness in promoting cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation.
