The study on component analysis indicates that the molecular weight of most condensed tannins and polyphenols in D. cirrhosa L. tuber extracts is higher than 1000. The kinetic study demonstrates that the adsorption processes of D. cirrhosa L. tuber extract components with molecular weights higher than 1000, and components with molecular weights lower than 1000 toward silk fabrics are fitted with the pseudo-second order model, and the survey of adsorption isotherms reveals that multiple interactions occurred between dyes and silk, encompassing hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces. The dyeing research shows that the dyed silk achieves its darkest color when employing D. cirrhosa L. tuber extract components with molecular weights lower than 1000 with a Fe2+ mordant concentration of 4 g/L and a pH value of 5. The K/S and L* values of dyed silk are 9.05 and 30.77, respectively. Under this dyeing condition, the complex, Fe element content, and Fe2+ ratio on the silk dyed with D. cirrhosa L. tuber extract components with molecular weights lower than 1000 surface are higher than those of D. cirrhosa L. tuber extracts and D. cirrhosa L. tuber extract components with molecular weights higher than 1000. The present study indicates that condensed tannins in D. cirrhosa L. tuber extracts are not the sole active compounds involved in the silk dark dyeing process. Polyphenols with molecular weights below 1000 in D. cirrhosa L. tuber extracts are shown to influence significantly and, in some cases, dominate the silk dark dyeing process.","PeriodicalId":22323,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140197159","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}

Fibrous materials exhibit the unique micro-structures including small diameter, large specific surface area, and high porosity, which has been widely developed for sound absorption. Recently, rapid growth has been observed in the coating treatment of fibrous based materials and composites for acoustic applications, which can be attributed to the advantages of a facile production process, cost-effectiveness, and good sound absorption capability. This review aims to provide a brief overview on different coating layers of fibrous materials for improved sound absorption properties. The details of various factors affecting the acoustic behavior of coating materials are described. Among them, polymer coating is a widely used acoustic treatment method, adding particles and nanofiber materials to the polymer matrix, and carrying out structural design, which can further improve the sound absorption performance of textile materials. According to the different needs of the application field, different coating treatment methods have their own advantages.

The study used a mesoscopic yarn-level full-size model developed based on the finite element method to analyze the energy absorption patterns, back face deformation, and damage morphology of the three-dimensional shallow straight-joint woven fabrics under different clamping methods. The results show that the clamping method has a significant influence on the ballistic performance of the fabric. With the weft-sides clamped, its ballistic limit velocity and failure morphology are similar to four-sides clamping, with more negligible energy absorption and failure area. Warp-sides clamped is second, while the corner held undergoes the maximum out-of-plane displacement and energy absorption, exhibiting an utterly different failure mechanism.

However, conventional leather products have inherent limitations that make them unsuitable for unconventional applications. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new capabilities in order to overcome these limitations. In this study, we explored the conversion of regular leather into a high-strength product with hydrophobic properties through surface engineering. To achieve this, we synthesized polysiloxane-modified fluorinated waterborne polyurethane emulsions as functional coatings using emulsion polymerization. The structure and properties of the treated leathers were characterized using techniques such as Fourier transform infrared, thermogravimetry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. The results demonstrated that the synthesized polysiloxane-modified fluorinated waterborne polyurethane successfully penetrated and combined with the fibers of the leather, resulting in excellent hydrophobicity. The water contact angle increased to 124.3°. Furthermore, the tensile strength and tear strength of unfinished leather are 875 N and 114 N, respectively. The application of waterborne polyurethane-derived functional additives as coatings resulted in a significant increase in tensile and tear strength of the leather by 60 N and 16 N, respectively. In addition, the softness of the leather increased from 7.6 mm to 10.09 mm. Overall, the use of this functional waterborne polyurethane coating will contribute to the diversification of leather applications.","PeriodicalId":22323,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"157 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140197267","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}

The wide utilization of indigo dye in denim manufacturing presents significant challenges owing to its intricate chemical structure and inherent resistance to degradation. Improper disposal of waste denim fabric and the release of indigo dye impose severe ecological ramifications. In this study, we explore the productive application of electrochemistry to recycle indigo dye from waste denim fabric while repurposing the electrolyte for denim dyeing. Notably, the separation of indigo from waste denim textiles reaches 82.34%. It is calculated that 21.59 g of indigo can be recovered from 1 kg of denim waste. Recovered indigo can be reused for cotton yarn dyeing. In the experiment, indigo was recovered from 0.03 square meters of denim waste, and the K/ S value of the yarn was up to 2.997 after five dyeing cycles. The loss of fabric strength after recycling is as low as 13.32%, which has little effect on secondary fabric recycling. Our recycling method reduces the waste of 978.41 g of waste fabric and 21.59 g of indigo per kilo compared to conventional treatment. This research provides compelling scientific evidence supporting adopting a closed-loop system within denim production, underlining the potential for environmentally conscious and economically viable practices in the industry.","PeriodicalId":22323,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"141 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140197032","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}

Rapid determination of natural indigo dye contents before the dyeing process appears extremely important. In this study, two prediction models for different concentrations were established using partial least squares in conjunction with near-infrared analysis quantitatively to analyze the natural indigo dye content. A total of 228 indigo samples were collected from 14 different dyestuffs across various regions, with concentrations ranging from 100 to 1000 mg/L and 10 to 100 mg/L, respectively. The spectral pre-processing methods of multiplicative scatter correction plus first-order derivative and Savitzky–Golay smoothing plus band normalization plus first-order derivative were selected to enhance the model prediction accuracy. The optimized model exhibited excellent prediction accuracy. Within the concentration range of 100–1000 mg/L, the model has an R2 value of 0.9994, and a root mean square error of prediction value of 6.36 mg/L. In the concentration range of 10–100 mg/L, the model returned an R2 value of 0.9907, and a root mean square error of prediction value of 2.80 mg/L. The model's detection limit stands at 49.2 mg/L.

Three fabrics were compared at different sweating rates under radiant exposure, focusing on exploring heat and mass transfer mechanisms using the traditional pre-wetting method and the innovative continuous sweating method. It was found that the pre-wetting method was effective in situations where fabrics experienced transient moisture absorption, whereas the continuous sweating method excelled in scenarios requiring continuous moisture supply before saturation and was used to estimate liquid moisture transfer. In particular, for materials with low hygroscopicity, the pre-wetting method resulted in 86.24 kJ/m2 more absorbed thermal energy at the skin surface compared with the continuous sweating method, with a sweat rate of 10 μL/min/cm2, highlighting the tendency of the pre-wetting method to overestimate the thermal protective performance. Conversely, for fabrics with high hygroscopicity and testing with high sweat rate, a 32.81% reduction in absorbed thermal energy on the skin surface was observed when the continuous sweating method was used in place of the pre-wetting method, significantly reducing operational risks. This study provides valuable guidance in selecting appropriate sweat simulation methods to evaluate the thermal protection performance based on specific environmental conditions, and provides critical insights for further studies on heat and moisture transfer.","PeriodicalId":22323,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140197110","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}

Its principal advantage is that the device has integrated modules for compression, surface friction, and thermal and bending properties. This module integration simplifies the testing process, and provides an efficient measurement method, and a comprehensive physical index. This study focused on woven fabrics for dress shirts. The fabric samples comprised three groups with various yarn compositions – that is, cotton, polyester, and wool. Sample group 1 was composed of cotton, polyester, and blended yarns; sample group 2 mainly compared the effect of twist yarns on the fabric touch; and sample group 3 was composed of wool and blended yarns with polyester. The handling properties were assessed by compression work and the compression recovery rate for the compression attributes. The results revealed that fabric (T100p1) with high twist-level yarns had a higher value of compression work (242.56 gf*mm2), and the texture type may affect the compression characteristics more significantly than the blending ratio. The fabric touch tester can also distinguish small changes in the compression properties of samples (0.43–0.71), the maximum heat flux and surface roughness amplitude for the thermal and surface roughness properties. The results revealed that the maximum heat flux value of all the samples in this study was 1109 Wm−2, the sample C100 using pure cotton yarn had the highest maximum heat flux value (1270 Wm−2). Moreover, the sample W100 with 100% wool fiber yarn had the highest surface roughness amplitude in the warp direction (81 μm) and surface roughness amplitude in the weft direction (67 μm). Finally, the bending average rigidity was used to assess the bending performance of the fabric samples.

However, they are also associated with a considerable consumption of natural resources, leading to high levels of water pollution and emissions of greenhouse gases, contributing to climate change. The carbon footprint (CF) of textiles depends generally on fabric types and production processes. Natural fibers such as cotton, wool, and silk, generally have a lower CF when compared to synthetic fabrics such as polyester and nylon, requiring more energy and chemicals during production. In addition, fabrics manufactured through eco-friendly methods, such as closed-loop systems and sustainable production processes, have a significantly lower CF than those produced using conventional means. Accordingly, there is a perceived need for comprehensive studies that investigate the environmental and climate implications of the textile sector. Considering these concerns, a study was undertaken on the topic, encompassing a literature review and data collection so as to present an overview of the environmental impacts and CF associated with the textile sector. The results from the research show that the resource consumption associated with the textile sector, particularly its CF, demands urgent action in order to reduce its impacts. Also, actionable measures are needed so as to reduce the CF of the textile industry. These are described in the paper, along with the obstacles that need to be overcome so as not only to reduce the CF of this sector, but also to pursue the objectives outlined in the sustainable development goals.","PeriodicalId":22323,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"149 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140172881","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}
