The rapid advances in technology have driven people for seeking ways to improve the quality of their living environment. While excessive noise is more likely to affect people physically and psychologically such as tiredness, dulling of the senses, lack of concentration, and reduction in work efficiency, etc, therefore, noise suppression has become an important research issue. In this research, 7 D polyester staple fiber and 4 D low melting point fiber have been used to fabricate the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabric through the process of opening, blending, carding lining, lapping, and needle-punching. Meanwhile, the contents of low-melting point polyester fiber are varied as 10 wt%, 20 wt%, 30 wt%, 40 wt% and 50 wt% in PET fabric. The physical properties of PET fabrics are then evaluated after hot pressing process. Experimental results show that 50 wt% low-melting point polyester fiber is the best choice for PET fabric. Further, the techniques of lamination and multiple needle-punching are employed to make the PET/PP composite sound-absorbing board. A layer of polypropylene (PP) nonwoven selvages is placed between two layers of PET fabrics in the process of lamination. The PET/PP fibers casted into a mold are then put into a hot-air circulation oven around 170 °C for 10 minutes. Afterwards, the evaluation of PET/PP composite sound-absorbing board on sound absorption, flame resistance, thermal insulation, and relative mechanical properties is properly conducted.

Noise pollution has become a kind of serious environmental pollution problems. It not only makes people feel fatigue but also affects their concentration and work efficiency. People’s health and work efficiency could be promoted by improving and reducing the noise pollution problem. In this research, the recycled polyester (PET) fibers, polypropylene (PP) fiber and flame-retardant-hollow-crimp 7D PET fiber with a ratio of 2:1:7, 2:2:6, 2:3:5, 2:4:4, and 2:5:3 were fabricated and then needle-punched, creating the PET/PP/PET fabric. Next, a layer of recycled PP selvage and a layer of fabric were laminated in turn on the base fabric before needle-punching with a certain punching-depth, which was repeated until the 10-layer PET/PP/PET nonwoven composite was completed. Finally, the resulting PET/PP/PET nonwoven composite was measured with its physical properties and sound absorption ability.

In this research, the nonwoven fabrics were made of 50 % high-tenacity polyester fiber and 50 % low melting polyester fiber, after which the nonwoven fabrics were thermal-treated at 110 °C, 120 °C, 130 °C, 140 °C and 150 °C for 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 4 min and 5 min. Next, two layers of nonwoven fabrics were laminated with a layer glass (GF) fiber plain fabric or a layer of Nylon 66 grid, forming the sandwich structure. The nonwoven/ GF composite fabrics and the nonwoven/ Nylon 66 grid composite fabrics were also reinforced by needle-punching and thermal treatment, after which the two composite fabrics were measured with tensile strength and stab-resistant strength. Meanwhile, two layers of nonwoven fabrics needle-punched served as the control group. According to the results, Nylon 66 grid and glass fibers plain fabrics were both good at strengthening, the former reinforced the tensile strength of the composite fabrics and the later heightened the stab-resistant strength of the composite fabrics.

Objective: A new poly(ionic liquid)(PIL), poly(p-vinylbenzyltriphenylphosphine hexafluorophosphate) (P[VBTPP][PF6]), was synthesized by quaternization, anion exchange reaction, and free radical polymerization. Then a series of the PIL were synthesized at different conditions. Methods: The specific heat capacity, glass-transition temperature and melting temperature of the synthesized PILs were measured by differential scanning calorimeter. The thermal conductivities of the PILs were measured by the laser flash analysis method. Results: Results showed that, under optimized synthesis conditions, P[VBTPP][PF6] as the thermal insulator had a high glass-transition temperature of 210.1°C, high melting point of 421.6°C, and a low thermal conductivity of 0.0920 W m-1 K-1 at 40.0°C (it was 0.105 W m-1 K-1 even at 180.0°C). The foamed sample exhibited much low thermal conductivity λ=0.0340 W m-1 K-1 at room temperature, which was comparable to a commercial polyurethane thermal insulating material although the latter had a much lower density. Conclusion: In addition, mixing the P[VBTPP][PF6] sample into polypropylene could obviously increase the Oxygen Index, revealing its efficient flame resistance. Therefore, P[VBTPP][PF6] is a potential thermal insulating material.

In this paper, low melting point polyamide (LMPA) filaments and low melting point polyethylene terephthalate (LMPET) filaments were blended with conventional filaments, including polyamide (PA), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polypropylene (PP), to prepare weft-knitted fabrics. The binding properties of low the melting point filaments in weft-knitted fabrics after heat treatment were investigated by testing mechanical properties and observing the morphology. The effect of heat treatment on the binding properties of the low melting point filaments is discussed. Tensile stress at small deformations and Young's moduli of all fabrics increased and then decreased with increasing heat treatment temperature or time. Thus, an optimal heat treatment process is obtained. LMPA/PA fabric shows better binding properties than LMPET/PET fabric. Both are better than other fabrics considered in this study. This could lead to commercial application of these fabrics.

Polymeric Waste

Polymeric material, which is commonly used in packaging, has been widely applied due to the fact that it is lightweight and chemical resistant. Being non-degradable, polymeric waste can thus only be eliminated by burning, and subsequently, there is a rising need for degradable polymeric material to manage this manner of disposal. This study thus uses degradable, low-melting-point polylactide (LMPLA) fibers and recycled polyester (RPET) fibers to make nonwoven fabrics for packaging. The tensile strength, tear strength, and air permeability of the nonwoven fabrics are then tested. The experiment results show that a 40% of RPET fibers can effectively promote the mechanical properties of the LMPLA nonwoven fabrics.

Technical development and rapid telecommunication create convenient consumer products, but produce electromagnetic radiation that hurts the human body, which makes the development of antistatic and electromagnetic-wave-resistant textiles important. This study combines polylactic acid (PLA) fibers and low melting point polylactic (LPLA) fibers by needle punching to make PLA nonwoven fabrics. The lamination layer number is then changed to explore its influence on the mechanical properties of the PLA nonwoven fabrics. Next, the nonwoven fabrics are spray-coated with polyaniline (PANI) to form the PANI/PLA nonwoven fabrics. The PANI/PLA nonwoven fabric with a lamination layer number of 5 has the optimum tensile and tear strength. A coating of PANI can reduce the surface resistivity.

In the textile industry, recently, it is urgent to develop the recycling system of the polyester fiber waste which results from the manufacturing process of sythetic fabric. However, most of the fiber wastes are destroyed by fire or buried underground. In this paper, the insulating composites which consist of polyester fiber wastes and PLA films are molded by compression molding method. In the process of preforming, the polyester fiber wastes are arrayed in uni-direction, and PLA films are inserted among layers of the polyester fiber wastes as binder. Namely, the polyester fiber wastes layers and PLA films are laminated alternately. In this paper, pitch (distance among the fiber wastes) and number of layers of polyester fiber wastes are varied, and the effect of pitch and number of layers of polyester fiber wastes on mechanical property and thermal insulating propertiy of the composites are discussed. As the result, it is concluded here that the melted state and the thickness of layers of PLA affect largely on the thermal conductivity and the bending strength of the boards.

This study aims to investigate the optimal value of design parameters for the sound-absorbing nonwoven composite board. The number of laminated layers and thickness of polyester fiber are viewed as the design parameters for fabricating the nonwoven composite board. The 2D, 7D and 12D polyester fibers are individually mixed with 4D low-melting point polyester fiber to produce 2D polyester nonwoven fabric (2D-PETF), 7D polyester nonwoven fabric (7D-PETF) and 12D polyester nonwoven fabric (12D-PETF) respectively. The developed nonwoven fabrics are then used to fabricate 2D-PET, 7D-PET and 12D-PET nonwoven composite boards through the multiple needle-punching and thermal bonding techniques. The sound absorption performance of each PET composite board is carefully examined. The experimental results reveal that the 7D-PET composite board with 10 laminated layers has the optimal sound absorption performance.

Geotextiles primarily provide reinforcement, and their tensile properties can resist stresses and prevent soil structure deformation. Nonwoven geotextiles are also commonly used in railways, roads, soil and water conservation, and therefore their applications are subjected to climatic environments and geographical environments where the geotextiles are used. Therefore, this study recycles and reclaims Kevlar selvages that are then incorporated with polyester fibers and low-melting-point polyester fibers in order to form nonwoven geotextiles. The tensile properties of the geotextiles in relation to various ambient environmental temperatures are examined with the test temperatures being set as 25℃ (control group), 50, 60, 70, and 80℃. Statistical analyses are performed to examine the effects of fiber blending ratios, needle punching depth, and thermal treatments on the tensile properties of the nonwoven geotextiles. The test results indicate that nonthermally treated nonwoven geotextiles have a tensile strength that is significantly increased when the ambient temperature is increased. In contrast, according to the insignificant differences obtained from statistical analyses, the tensile strength of thermally treated samples is independent of the ambient temperatures, indicating that thermal treatment allows for heat setting of the geotextiles. In particular, the thermally treated polyester/low-melting-point polyester/Kevlar nonwoven geotextiles have the maximum tensile strength when they are composed of a blending ratio of 60/20/20 wt% and a needle punching depth of 0.5 cm.
