Download or read book The Waterproofing of Fabrics Classic Reprint written by S. Mierzinski and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Waterproofing of Fabrics Appearance of a Waterproofed Fabric under the Microscope. -materials, when waterproofed by chemical agents, under go changes only visible under the microscope. If an um treated fibre be put under the microscope, and then brought into contact with a drop Of water, it will be seen to suck up the water greedily. But if it has been treated with alumina the water is not absorbed, and the drop looks like a pearl traversed by the dark threads. Many air-bells crowd round the separate threads and stick to them very obsti nately, so that even hard pressure with the cover glass does not get rid of them. The behaviour Of coloured fibres is different after they have been waterproofed with acetate Of alumina or a metallic soap. Here we usually find both the dye as a lake and the metallic oxide adhering to the fibre. If, however, the waterproofing be done with ammonium cuprate or other ammoniacal solutions of metallic oxides, not only is the deposit of metallic oxide to be seen, but it is evident that the fibre has been altered and parch mentized.

Knoepfler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Blends of Chemically Treated Cotton Fibers With Untreated Cotton Fibers to Improve Abrasion Resistance of Durable Press Garments While the application of resins to obtain wash-wear or easy-care properties in ap parel textile items has long been known to significantly lower their abrasion resist ance and strength, the problem was not too serious when chemical add-ons of only 3 to 4 percent were used. In the case of the deferred-cure resins, considerably higher chemical add-ons and higher curing temperatures have been used in the case of the conventional resins to speed production and to accomplish the curing of multiple layers of fabrics. The overall result of these changes has been that some permanent-press cotton apparel items were degraded to the point where significant abrasion damage resulted in fewer than 10 wash and tumble drying cycles.

Download or read book Waterproof and Water Repellent Textiles and Clothing written by John T Williams and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waterproof and Water Repellent Textiles and Clothing provides systematic coverage of the key types of finishes and high performance materials, from conventional wax and silicone, through controversial, but widely used fluoropolymers and advanced techniques, such as atmospheric plasma deposition and sol-gel technology. The book is an essential resource for all those engaged in garment development, production and finishing, and for academics engaged in research into apparel technology and textile science. Rapid innovation in this field is driving new performance demands in many areas, including the sporting and military sectors. However, another innovation driver is the regulatory framework in the USA, Europe and globally, addressing both health concerns (e.g. with PFOS / PFOA) and environmental impacts (e.g. C8 fluorocarbon finishes). Both of these aspects are fully covered, along with the replacement materials / technologies currently available and under development. In addition, oleophobic and multifunctional coatings are discussed, as are aspects of performance, testing and applications in sportswear, protective clothing, and footwear. Introduces innovative materials and technologies, exploring their current and potential use across different sectors Provides expert guidance on the health and environmental aspects of key waterproof materials and coatings and their associated regulations Demystifies testing processes and design principles
Download or read book Surface Modification to Improve Properties of Materials written by Miran Mozetič and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains selected contributions on surface modification to improve the properties of solid materials. The surface properties are tailored either by functionalization, etching, or deposition of a thin coating. Functionalization is achieved by a brief treatment with non-equilibrium gaseous plasma containing suitable radicals that interact chemically with the material surface and thus enable the formation of rather stable functional groups. Etching is performed in order to modify the surface morphology. The etching parameters are selected in such a way that a rich morphology of the surfaces is achieved spontaneously on the sub-micrometer scale, without using masks. The combination of adequate surface morphology and functionalization of materials leads to superior surface properties which are particularly beneficial for the desired response upon incubation with biological matter. Alternatively, the materials are coated with a suitable thin film that is useful in various applications from food to aerospace industries.
Download or read book Cotton written by Giorgio Riello and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-16 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's world textile and garment trade is valued at a staggering $425 billion. We are told that under the pressure of increasing globalisation, it is India and China that are the new world manufacturing powerhouses. However, this is not a new phenomenon: until the industrial revolution, Asia manufactured great quantities of colourful printed cottons that were sold to places as far afield as Japan, West Africa and Europe. Cotton explores this earlier globalised economy and its transformation after 1750 as cotton led the way in the industrialisation of Europe. By the early nineteenth century, India, China and the Ottoman Empire switched from world producers to buyers of European cotton textiles, a position that they retained for over two hundred years. This is a fascinating and insightful story which ranges from Asian and European technologies and African slavery to cotton plantations in the Americas and consumer desires across the globe.
