Download or read book Coated and Laminated Textiles written by W Fung and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2002-05-09 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coating and laminating are methods of both improving and modifying the physical properties and appearance of fabric. They have also facilitated the development of entirely new products and have led to innovations in the area of 'smart' materials. Coating and lamination cuts across virtually every product group of the textile industry, including composites where the scope for future development is extremely wide. This book helps bridge the gap between the two disciplines of textile technology and polymer chemistry, both of which are necessary for success in this area of technical textiles, and it also touches on the related textile processes of fabric impregnation and foam finishing. The manufacturing processes of coated and laminated fabrics involve materials such as solvent- and water-based resins and adhesives, films, foams and hot melt adhesives. In an increasingly environmentally-conscious world, control and handling of potentially toxic materials are becoming very important tasks for plant managers. The author emphasises the factors influencing selection of materials and process machinery -- especially with reference to environmental issues including global warming. Product descriptions, production and test methods and standards are discussed in detail, and the book will be a valuable source of reference, embracing apparel, domestic, medical, military and industrial applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Museum Textiles Textiles have been known to us throughout human history and played a vital role in the lives and traditions of people. Clothing was made by using different materials and methods from natural fibers. There are different varieties of textiles, out of which certain traditional textiles, archaeological findings, or fragments are of cultural, historical, and sentimental value such as tapestries, embroideries, flags, shawls, etc. These kinds of textiles, due to their historical use and environmental factors, require special attention to guarantee their long-term stability. Textile conservation is a complex, challenging, and multi-faceted discipline and it is one of the most versatile branches of conservation. Volume II of the Handbook of Museum Textiles provides precise instruction for conservation techniques to preserve the textile heritage more scientifically and technologically. Additionally, the book covers the most modern techniques used to characterize archaeological textiles and dyes. Progress and innovation in nanotechnology-based interventions in museum textiles are emphasized. Chapters cover the general introduction to biological damage caused by physical and chemical agents and their prevention methods. Information on microscopy and characterization of historical textiles, ancient dyes, and prints is highlighted. Several aspects of assessment of degradation, repair, and stabilization of antique textiles are presented in depth. Experimental research methods for diagnosis and scientific study of fibers and natural dyes using LC-MS and UV-VIS are described. Practical knowledge based on analysis and visualization of historical textiles for the needs of museum conservation, exhibition, digital technology, and virtual museums is addressed as well. Audience It will serve as an educational asset and tool for researchers, art scholars, archaeologists, museum curators, and those who are interested in the field of traditional or historic textile collections.

Download or read book Polymeric Protective Technical Textiles written by Brian J McCarthy and published by Smithers Rapra. This book was released on 2013-08-27 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current size of the personal protective clothing and equipment market in the EU alone is estimated at a 9.5-10 billion, with around 200,000 jobs directly or indirectly related to these products and services. The fast growth forecasted in certain parts of the world suggests that EU exports could grow by about 50% over the next 5-10 years. New fibres and new functionality will increase the global size of this niche market. Among the issues of specific concern for protective textiles are swifter development and use of international standards in the global market, which, combined with appropriate measures for the protection of intellectual property, would accelerate the increase in demand for protective textiles. This book contains authoritative chapters addressing issues ranging from anti-microbial textiles through to textiles for aircraft ejector seats. The protective textiles lead market offers opportunities for the entire textile sector. Spill-over effects from faster growing innovations in protective textiles to other market segments, such as interior textiles or functional clothing, would considerably increase the economic impact of the lead market, thus increasing the knowledge content and the added-value, contributing to a sustainable competitiveness of the entire textile sector. Global textile fibre usage in 2011 grew to 82 million tonnes and is estimated to grow to 101 million tonnes in 2017. There were record purchases of textile manufacturing machinery in 2012 - with increased use and processing of natural and synthetic polymer fibres. This book will prompt new ideas for product development in this rapidly expanding area and will be of interest to academics, students and industrialists.
