The experimental data were fitted and analyzed by the polynomial regression model, and the predicted area shrinkage and breaking strength response of wool fabric were obtained. The results were analyzed by variance analysis to determine the important parameters for optimization. Wool fabrics were prepared under the conditions of dopamine substrate concentration of 0.834 g/l, serine protease substrate concentration of 2.5 g/l, and reaction world of 127 min. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the surface of wool fibers was covered with a large amount of polydopamine and some edge scales were passivated. After 20 cycles of washing, the shrinkage area of wool fabric is from 1.49–7.25%, with good durability. In addition, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis results showed that the behavior of polydopamine-coated fibers prevented the excessive hydrolysis of scales by serine protease, and the crystallization index and solubility in alkaline solution increased.","PeriodicalId":505915,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"1 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141335453","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}

By detecting the adjacent distance between the characteristic contours of adjacent sewing stitches, the distribution uniformity of sewing stitches in sewing patterns is calculated, and the abnormal detection and traceability of fabric sewing broken threads are realized. First, the U-Net network sewing feature extraction model was trained using sewing images and their corresponding stitching feature annotation maps. Then, the trained network model was used to process sewing image samples to obtain binary stitching feature maps. Second, the stitching feature maps were processed using a closing operation to eliminate residual image noise. On this basis, the template matching algorithm was used to extract the stitching feature contours. Finally, according to the distance between adjacent feature contours, the fabric sewing break detection and abnormality tracing model was constructed. The model is validated by examples, and the results show that the abnormal samples of stitching lines are detected, and the corresponding break positions are given. The overall detection accuracy of the model is 95.75%, indicating that the constructed fabric sewing break detection model is effective.","PeriodicalId":505915,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"55 23","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141358130","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}

The results demonstrated that the minimal reflection loss of carbonized kapok fiber/CFO-6 was −52.2 dB at 8.56 GHz, with a thickness of 3.37 mm, and the broadest effective absorbing bandwidth was 6.2 GHz, with a thickness of 2.31 mm.

One especially interesting group is superbase carboxylates. However, despite their excellent pulp dissolving abilities and good spinnability properties in a lyocell process, they have been lacking hydrolytic stability, which hinders their recyclability. In this article, a new type of superbase-based ionic liquid, [MTBNH][AcO], is aimed to provide higher hydrolytic stability than its structural relative predecessors. For evaluation of the hydrolysis behavior of [MTBNH][AcO], we have tested the ionic liquid in two sets of recycling experiments. The “blank-experiments” were applied to investigate hydrolytic behavior without the presence of pulp. These values were compared with the results from spinning trials with pulp. It was found that this new ionic liquid is not only more stable than its predecessor [MTBDH][AcO] in terms of hydrolysis but can also dissolve and spin cellulose at lower temperatures. The spun fibers were tested for their textile-physical properties and their performance was comparable to other lyocell fibers.","PeriodicalId":505915,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"6 25","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141356573","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}

The second objective was to compare their Static Stiffness Index and their Dynamic Stiffness Index. The compression bandages were applied on 20 legs of healthy females. Interface pressure was measured at two different points of the leg (ankle and calf), at rest in two positions (standing, supine), and during walking sequences. Interface pressure depends mainly on the mechanical properties of compression devices and on the subject morphology. Both elastic and multilayer compression devices exhibited a pressure gradient loss from the ankle to the calf. Over time, pressure loss was higher for inelastic compression bandages ( p < 0.001) than for elastic and multilayer compression systems. Pressure variation from a supine to a standing position, and during walking, was higher for both inelastic bandage and multilayer system, than for elastic bandages ( p < 0.01) whatever the measurement time and the measurement point. For all compression devices, pressure variation during walking at the ankle was about 25% of the pressure variation when switching from a supine to a standing position. These results provide a better understanding of the behavior of various bandage types. The pressure variations measured during walking are lower than those obtained when the subject switches from a supine to a standing position. This study suggests that the efficacy of compression bandages relies on the interface pressure that they exert on the legs, and the capacity of the patient to walk, which activates calf muscle.","PeriodicalId":505915,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141378033","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}

However, it is not clear whether STF in STF–fabric composite materials undergoes thickening under normal loads, and to what extent. In this study, the yarn pullout test and the knife-stab test in the quasistatic mode were used to establish the enhancement effect of STF, owing to the dominant thickening mechanism. The results of pullout–in tests for STF show that the thickening effort of STF becomes stronger with increasing speed. There is an observable increase for the pullout–in force. The addition of STF can slightly improve the yarn pullout force and peak stab force for STF-treated fabric at low velocities, owing to friction enhancement. More importantly, at higher speeds, the peak pullout force of yarn was increased to 28.9 N, which increased by about 140% compared with low velocities. The peak stab forces increased by about 80% compared with low stab speeds. It is affirmed that the thickening effect of STF under normal loads plays a dominant role in enhancing STF–fabric composite materials.","PeriodicalId":505915,"journal":{"name":"Textile Research Journal","volume":"98 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141378186","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}

In this study, the design possibilities of a passive acoustic panel with macro-openings are investigated. An acoustic panel which absorbs a defined frequency of sound can be created when a suitable combination of acoustic absorption affecting parameters is found. These optimum parameters for a panel with macro holes were sought by means of experimental research regarding: the type of raw material suitable for the production of the components of the acoustic panel, the optimal hole shapes, their size and positioning on the panel lid, the possibility of using shredded textile from unsorted textile waste. The experiments in which the influence of the hole size and placement on the acoustic absorption was investigated were verified using a theoretical electrical equivalent circuit model created in the MathCad programming environment. The study found that the commonly used perforated panels made of Plexiglas can be fully replaced by panels made of shredded unsorted textile waste. It has also been shown that the shapes of the holes which can act as a design element can have various combinations, i.e. as long as the same percentage of perforation is maintained, the size of the circular holes or the shape of the slotted holes do not matter, as their acoustic absorption is within approximately the same range.

Functional yarns have been created to fulfil the varied application needs in various environments. Conductive yarns have attracted considerable interest because of their exceptional softness, comfort, and diverse capabilities, such as electromagnetic shielding and soft sensors. This paper presents a comprehensive examination of spinning techniques utilized for the production of conductive yarns, incorporating a range of conductive additives, conductive fabrics, and conventional electrical elements. The text emphasizes that the performance of conductive yarns is significantly affected by their structure, which is dictated by the geometrical configurations of their elements, and the spinning geometry, commonly known as the twisted triangle. The performance of conductive yarns is primarily determined by the concentration of conductive components in their structure. Moreover, this paper examines the possible uses of conductive fabrics in several technical domains. The mentioned applications encompass antistatic packaging, heating elements, wearable electronics, smart membrane technology, data storage and transmission, sensors, actuators, and protection against electromagnetic interference and electrostatic discharge. Conductive textiles possess a versatile character that presents a wide range of opportunities for progress in multiple industries. To summarize, this review thoroughly examines the spinning methods used to create conductive yarns, with a particular focus on the significance of yarn structure in influencing their performance.
