МULTI-LAYER FIBROUS MATERIAL BASED ON TEXTILE WASTE

At the textile and sewing and knitting enterprises of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the number of which increases every year, a sufficient amount of technological waste is accumulated, which formed in the processes of sizing yarn, starting and setting up equipment, designing and sewing products. Meanwhile, there is a shortage of warm, comfortable, light, soft lining materials for clothes and shoes based on natural raw materials. With the purpose of rational use of textile waste - shredded, disheveled scraps of fabric and knitwear, a multilayer nonwoven material for details of clothing and footwear has been obtained. The material formed by adhesive bonding on one or both sides of the knitted fabric of the main, voluminous nonwoven layer, consisting of shredded textile waste. The bonding of the layers takes place as a result of their passing between heated rolls. The microstructure of the material studied by Fourier-IR spectroscopy and

PROPERTIES IMPROVEMENT ON POLYESTER FABRIC USING POLYVINYL ALCOHOL

Polyethylene terephthalate is one of the important synthetic ester polymeric material used in widespread areas. In textile industry, this fibrous material finds use in most of the garment and apparel applications due to its ease of handling, maintenance, and drying and competes with cotton materials. However, due to the maximum hydrophobic behavior, this textile material gives number of issues like accumulation of statics, negligible moisture content, poor comfort and aesthetic characters. Hence, in order to use this polyester material in the general textile industries particularly for garment and apparel productions, it is necessary to increase to some extent of its hydrophilic character by the application of some suitable chemicals like polyvinyl alcohol. In these context, in this work an attempt is made to treat the polyethylene terephthalate fabric with sodium hydroxide followed by polyvinyl alcohol so as to increase the aesthetic properties. The output received after the polyvinyl alcohol treatment on this fabric gives the good results expected for the garment applications.

Processing of Orange Peel Biomass waste of Juice Industries and Valorization to Smart Acoustic Material

Non-destructive technique like ultrasonication has played crucial role in fabrication of effective graded acoustic material using carbon rich organic waste material. The peculiar structural configuration inside the fibrous material like orange peel have attract the researcher to create special interest in designing of some building acoustic material as well as many technological products. The noise reduction property of orange peel fibres of different particle size has been improved considerably after ultrasonically mercerization of NaOH.High penetrating and dispersive property of ultrasonic wave to assemble and regrouping among the fibrous material are quite remarkable for enhancing noise attenuation inside the composite. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectra(EDS), Fourier Transform Infra-Red(FTIR) and X-Ray Diffraction(XRD) analysis of both untreated and treated orange peel fibre of different particle size indicate the deformation in cellulose as well as anti cellulose with the aid of ultrasonicationpermits the composites to be a suitable acoustic material. The result confirm that ultrasonic treated composite has potential to absorb 88.6% of sound which makes it a class- B noiseabsorber with peripheral mechanism within the composite.

Microscopic Anatomy of the Lining of Hemal Spaces in the Penaeid Shrimp, Sicyonia ingentis

The purpose of this paper is to present a morphological description of three different types of acellular material lining hemal spaces in a shrimp, providing a background for addressing future questions. The vasculature of the penaeid shrimp, Sicyonia ingentis, includes vessels leading from the heart into arteries which branch and expand into sinuses before returning hemolymph back to the heart. Early work showed that an endothelium was absent, and a basement membrane (BM) separated tissues from the hemolymph. Therefore, it was suggested that hemocytes could identify anything other than the BM as a “foreign” entity. This study demonstrates three major types of acellular material lining the hemal spaces of S. ingentis. Cardiomyocytes, digestive gland tubules, and abdominal muscle fibers are covered by BMs. Major arteries are lined by a fibrillin-like fibrous material. Finally, sheaths of collagenous connective tissues cover the heart and digestive gland as well as the outer surface of arteries, the gut, and gonad. Our understanding of hemocyte receptors and extracellular matrices in general have greatly expanded but the biochemical composition of the matrices lining crustacean hemal spaces, their role in regulating nutrient uptake, and the cells responsible for their deposition deserve further attention.

Influence of fineness, length and hollow section of fibers on acoustic absorption

A fibrous material is characterized by its fineness, flexibility and high length/fineness ratio and it is used to reduce noise in indoor rooms due to their porous structure. The aim of this work is focused on investigating the structure of two different fibers (acrylic and polyester) from the analysis of the macrostructural parameters, such as fineness, length and cross-section (solid or hollow). Furthermore, the degree of influence of these parameters on the average sound absorption has been investigated. The sound absorption coefficient of fibers is measured at normal incidence in the impedance tube. In acrylic fibers, results showed that the fineness of the fiber has a significant influence on the sound absorption compared to the length of the fiber. In polyester fibers, hollow fibers have a better acoustic behavior compared to solid fibers.

Sound absorption of a finite flexible micro-perforated panel absorber back by a rigid air cavity filled with a fibrous porous material

Back by a rigid cavity filled with a layer of porous layer, the sound absorption performance of a micro-perforated panel (MPP) can be enhanced in comparison with other resonance based sound absorbers. In this paper, a theoretical model of a finite flexible MPP back by a rigid air cavity filled with a fibrous porous material is developed to predict normal sound absorption coefficients. Displacements of MPP and sound pressure field in fibrous porous material and acoustic cavity are expressed using a series of modal functions, and the sound absorption coefficients of MPP system are obtained. Additionally, comparison of energy dissipation by MPP and fibrous material is performed to identify effects of a fibrous material on the sound absorption of a MPP. As expected, at anti-resonance frequency of an MPP, the fibrous material provide an alternative energy dissipation mechanism.

Determination of the permeability coefficient and airflow resistivity of nonwoven materials

Air penetration behavior plays a vital role in the performance of fibrous material in various industrial applications. Two parameters, the permeability coefficient and airflow resistivity, can describe the air penetration behavior of fibrous material. FX 3300 Textech Tester III and AFD300 AcoustiFlow devices were used to respectively characterize the permeability coefficient and airflow resistivity of nonwoven materials. Nonwoven samples were compressed due to the load from the test head of the FX 3300. Finite element analysis along with the mathematical method were implemented to recover the airflow permeability of samples at the uncompressed state. The effects of pressure drop on the airflow velocity and permeability coefficient were analyzed by the Ergun-type model. The determination of airflow resistivity based on the permeability coefficient is carried out via two approaches, that is, the direct method and the extrapolation method. The results show that the airflow velocity is not linearly related to the pressure drop, which differs from Darcy's law. This non-linear relation is mainly attributed to the influence of frictional loss. By comparing the relative error between assessed and measured airflow resistivity, most of the assessed values of the compressed samples are overestimated. The results also suggest that the direct and extrapolation methods are applicable to assess airflow resistivity on an airflow velocity (or air permeability) test device. Moreover, the Ergun-type model is also applicable to determine the permeability coefficient and airflow resistivity of nonwoven materials.
