By mass; 203.4g of decorticated dried palm tree sheath was subjected to chemical degumming. Degumming of the raw decorticated palm sheath with 20% sodium hydroxide solution and 5% wetting agent was carried out. The degumming process was incubated at the temperature 120˚C for 2hours. To remove residual gummy substances which are already dissolved and left on the fibers; the fibers were washed by warm water and dried. It's found that 28.87% degummed fiber was extracted. After bleaching the degummed fibers; the fibers were washed to remove residual H2O2 from the fibers. The bleached fibers were treated by silicone emulsion to soften the fibers. Finally the fibers were dried and their Characteristics (before and after softening); Longitudinal view, Tensile strength at break and Elongation at break characterized. Also moisture regain (R %) and moisture content (W %) of the softened fibers were characterized and found as 12.65 and 11.23% respectively.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74240960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cellulosic fiber acquires negative charge in aqueous medium and thus repels negatively charged dye anion during dyeing. Such repulsion between fibre and dye is offset by using large quantity of salt in dye bath, particularly for reactive dyes. A low dye bath exhaustion also leads to low dye fixation of reactive dyes on cotton. Therefore the discharged wastewater from dye house creates avoidable environmental threats due to very high dye concentration. Hence, surface modification of cotton to increase dye-fibre interaction is thus the best route to overcome the lack of affinity of cotton to reactive dyes making salt-free reactive dyeing. In this investigation an attempt was made to modify cotton with chitosan extracted from fish scales. The chitosan modified cotton was dyed with reactive dye and compared with the conventional dyed cotton. The color strength of the modified cotton fabric was better than that of conventional sample which is 18.88 and 18.02 respectively. Better fastness properties were experienced in treated cotton sample than the ordinary sample. The fastness properties obtained were better than the conventional sample. From this investigation it was revealed that surface modification of cotton by treatment with chitosan provided better dyeing properties and it can be the best possibility for salt free dyeing of cotton.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86924696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper has some objectives such as introducing the applications of spandex fabrics, discussing highest clothing importers, and detailing recent textile trade expansion countries etc. The textiles and clothing industries are categorized by changeable mandate, short product life sequences, rapid response time, enormous product diversity, and an unstable, unyielding, and intricate supply chain structure. The textile and clothing industries subsidize meaningfully towards the national budget of many countries. Although the clothing industry is worldwide in nature, the engineering facilities from established countries are flowing to developing countries to lessen the labor fees. Even in these developing countries, the clothing industries are fronting the greatest experiments in spite of the inexpensive labor cost, due to the petite production life-cycle, high instability, low expectedness, high level of instinct purchase and the quick market reaction. To diminish the cost of manufacture, the clothing industries in developing countries are rather concentrating on sourcing of inexpensive raw materials and minimizing transfer cost than labor efficiency due to the obtainability of inexpensive labor.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"57 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91480419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Renewable agricultural sources such as pineapple leaf, sisal and sugarcane bagasse are among agro waste, normally known as biomass which is recently used for reinforcing polymeric materials. Sugarcane bagasse fibre residues have been extensively investigated and employed as a source of reinforcement of polymers. In the present research work a sugar cane bagasse fibre reinforced epoxy composite material has been developed with 35%, 45%, 55% of sugar cane bagasse fibre pulp with 50%, 40% and 30% mixed in epoxy resin. Experimental work was done to study the composite sheet of the thickness, density, impact strength and tensile strength properties. According to the analysis, it has observed that all the parameters are significantly affected. The overall results indicate the has fact that the highest tensile strength of composite sheet having a composition of 35% fibre pulp and 50% epoxy resin and higher impact strength composite sheet having a composition of 55% pulp ratio and 30% epoxy resin. The natural sugar cane bagasse fibre epoxy resin composite can lead to green manufacturing and can be used for a sustainable green environment. The major residue is normally burnt for energy supply in the sugar and alcohol industries and as a result, tons of ash is created. This create sever environmental problem like air pollution, smoke formation.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85326389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
