The optical properties of all three dyes were very similar because they were obtained via the introduction of different alkyl groups into the same fluorophore. Different alkyl substituents introduced into benzoxazole significantly affected its fluorescence properties, polypropylene affinity, and washability. In addition, the effects of dye concentration and dyeing temperature on the color strength and fluorescence emission intensity were investigated.

Rheological testing was used to estimate ultimate draw ratios, revealing that low-entanglement UHMWPE could be drawn up to 101 times, which is 1.8 times greater than fibers from highly entangled materials of comparable molecular weight.

Nevertheless, the problem of agglomeration significantly decreases its adsorption capacity, and the difficulties in separation and recycling after adsorption impede its practical use. Herein, in this work, we introduce a more cost-effective and simplified approach to fabricate porous network Fe(OH)₃/BC (bacterial cellulose) composites by adsorbing Fe³⁺ on BC nanofibers and subsequently treating them with alkali. This method enables the in situ growth of dispersed Fe(OH)₃ nanoparticles on the BC nanofibers surface, thus creating a high effective adsorbent. Moreover, anchoring Fe(OH)₃ to the surface of BC nanofibers addresses the issue of separating Fe(OH)₃ nanoparticles from the solution after adsorption. The theoretical maximum equilibrium adsorption capacity (<i>q</i>_m) of Fe(OH)₃/BC for congo red at pH 7, 25℃ and a shaking speed of 120 rpm reached 725.7 mg/g in 24 h, which was significantly higher than that achieved by BC or Fe(OH)₃ powder alone. In addition, Fe(OH)₃/BC exhibited excellent reusability, with removal efficiencies exceeding 92% and 78% after the 5th and 10th cycles of adsorption, respectively. This innovative approach not only simplifies fabrication processes and enables easy separation after adsorption, but also improved capacity for congo red removal.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":557,"journal":{"name":"Fibers and Polymers","volume":"25 12","pages":"4575 - 4586"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142778206","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}

Traditional methods were used in the dyeing experiments. KAl(SO₄)₂·12H₂O, FeSO₄·7H₂O, tangerine tree leaves (TTLs), and acorns were used as ecological mordants, and ZnSO₄·7H₂O, CuSO₄·5H₂O, SnCl₂·2H₂O, and K₂Cr₂O₇ were used as traditional mordants. In the study, TTLs were also tested as a bio-mordant for the first time. Additionally, using the ABTS and FRAP techniques, the total phenolic, total flavonoid, and antioxidant capabilities of methanol solutions of C. <i>campestris</i> were measured. The total flavonoid and phenolic contents of the plant were found to be 50.43 ± 1.54 mg QE/g and 230.53 ± 1.05 mg GAE/g, respectively.

Researchers are always focusing on enhancing the strength and hardness of the layers, often known as interlaminar characteristics. This study investigates the feasibility of hybrid composites fabricated through the utilization of plain weaving techniques. Four different hybrid composites were created by weaving flax and hemp threads with stainless steel wire mesh, infusing them with epoxy resin, and reinforcing them with hand-laid hemp and flax fibers. The composites were produced using different combinations of hemp and flax yarns, resulting in the following variations: hemp fiber with weaving on wire mesh using hemp yarn 1 (H1), hemp fiber with alternative weaving on wire mesh using hemp yarn and flax yarn 2 (H2), flax fiber with weaving on wire mesh using flax yarn 1 (F1), and flax fiber with alternative weaving on wire mesh using flax yarn and hemp yarn (F2). The composites underwent ASTM standard assessments to determine their hardness, impact resistance, flexural properties, and tensile strength. The tensile test indicates that the maximum values were obtained in F2 (42.38 MPa) and H2 (38.61 MPa). The tensile strength of F2 is 8.89% higher than that of H2. H2 has a flexural strength of 85.12 MPa, which is 8.12% greater than H1. Similarly, F2 exhibits a 9.05% increase in strength compared to F1. The impact strength of the composite material used in F2 is 9.95 J, which is higher than the impact strength of other composites such as F1, H1, and H2. Material H2 has a significant 15.13% enhancement in impact resistance when compared to the other composites. The maximum hardness of composite F2 is 31.8VHN, which exceeds the average hardness of other composites by 10.29%. Integrating weaving techniques into wire mesh entails utilizing flax fiber and hemp fibers, which have a substantial impact on its mechanical properties, leading to enhanced flexibility, resistance to impact, ability to be stretched, and tensile strength.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":557,"journal":{"name":"Fibers and Polymers","volume":"25 12","pages":"4873 - 4883"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142778288","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}
