Although indigenous knowledge system has been practiced over the years in the past, the use of natural dyes has diminished over generations due to lack of documentation and precise knowledge of the extracting and dyeing techniques. As a result, natural dyes are not commercially successful. Presently, all environmentally unfriendly synthetic compounds are used for dyeing textile materials. They are non-biodegradable, carcinogenic and generate water pollution as well as waste disposal problems. Natural dyes provide a reasonable solution to these problems. Thus, it is imperative to develop technology for extraction of natural dyes and for their application on textile materials. In this study, attempt has been made to extract natural dyes from a variety of plants sources (such as rhizomes of turmeric, Curcuma longa;fruits of harda, Terminalia chebula;petals of safflower, Carthamus tinctorius;roots of barberry, Berberis lycium etc.) using specific techniques. These dyes were tested for their dyeing potential on different textile materials (cotton, silk and wool). Dyeing was done using three different dyeing techniques (pre-, simultaneous- and post-mordanting) wherein different mordants such as alum, copper sulphate and ferrous sulphate etc., were used to fix dye on to the textile material. A rainbow of natural dyes was obtained with varied shades of each colour. Shade cards were prepared for each dye and the colour obtained varied depending on the type of the mordant applied and the mordanting technique used.展开更多

In order to estimate the CO2 emissions embodied in China's imports and exports of textiles and clothing, an empirical analysis was carried out with environmental input-output analysis (EIOA) method using the most recent data available. The results indicate that China is a net exporter of embodied CO2 emissions on account of its international trade of textiles and clothing. The amount of the net exported embodied CO2 emissions increases from 110 million metric tons(Mt) of CO2 in 2002 to 280 Mt of CO2 in 2011. In particular, United States, Japan, and European Union transfer to China 339 Mt of CO2, 291 Mt of CO2 and 396 Mt of CO2 respectively during the period of 2002 -2011.展开更多

Global demand for textile fibers is driven by population growth and by economic activity resulting in increasing wealth, particularly in emerging economies. While this overall trend is consistent across most major fibers, there are substantial disparities in the demand patterns of natural versus man-made fiber, with cotton and polyester being the primary protagonists. This paper charts recent trends and potential opportunities relevant to cotton fiber utilization in conventional and non-conventional textile products.展开更多

The friction behavior was investigated for three kinds of medical textiles with various structures and compositions by using a textile friction analyzer under dry condition. In order to simulate the contacts of textiles/human finger, a mechanical skin model with similar texture to the skin and applied normal load oflN were selected. Meanwhile, the 3D surface topography of textiles was measured using a digital microscope. The topographical data were analyzed concerning height distribution and material ratio, and the real contact area was estimated as a function of penetration depth. Results showed that the investigated textiles revealed a significant variation on the friction coefficients, which were （ 0.41 ± 0.01 ） （ polyamide, jersey 2 × 2 ）, （0.56 ± 0. 01） （cotton, jersey 2×2） and （0. 47 ± 0. 01） （polyamide, jersey 1 × 1 ）, respectively. The textile with higher friction coefficient was found to own a relative compact and homogenous surface and larger contact area, vice versa.展开更多

Many objective and subjective techniques have already been developed for analysing the hand of textiles;however, none of them provide exact overall information concerning the sensation of textiles through the skin. As the human skin is a complex heterogeneous hyperelastic body composed of many particles, some simplifications had to be made at the early stage of building the models;however, their utilitarian value was maintained. The models relate only to mechanical loading of the skin. They predict a low deformation of the fingertip skin under the pressure of virtual heterogeneous material: acrylic, coarse wool, and steel.展开更多
