Functional Nanocomposite Poly(phenylene sulphide) Fibres - Preliminary Studies
Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2016, Vol 24, Issue 4
Abstract
Composite poly(phenylene sulphide) (PPS) fibres and nonwovens were obtained by the melt blowing method. A specially designed twin screw extruder was used which allowed to perform several mixing cycles prior to final extrusion. Multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbonyl iron microparticles were used as the additives. To obtain possibly good dispersion of the modifiers in the polymer melt, the CNTs were first dispersed in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and Fe microparticles were dispersed in polyethylene wax. Rheological characteristics of the melts and bulk composites, such as viscosity, loss and storage moduli, are similar to those reported by other groups; however, the contents of additives must be lower than in the case of bulk materials to assure satisfactory melt spinability. The fibres obtained show satisfactory mechanical characteristics and electromagnetic screening efficiency in the GHz region.

Examining the Relation Between the Number and Location of Tuck Stitches and Bursting Strength in Circular Knitted Fabrics
Single jersey fabrics are the most common type among knitted fabrics. Their patterns are designed by loops, tuck and float stitches and their combinations. The tuck stitch has important influences on fabric properties...
One-Bath One-Step Dyeing of a Polyester/ Cotton Blend using the Pad-Dry-Fixation Process
The aim of this research work was to evaluate the one bath dyeing of polyester/cotton blend and to compare the results with those of two bath dyeing. Polyester/cotton (50:50) blend fabrics were studied using dichlorotria...
Effects of Resin Treatments on the Quality of Cotton Fabric Dyed with Reactive Dye
In this study, we analysed different resin finishing agents on cotton fabric dyed with reactive dye. Different tests were carried out on the resin treated fabric, such as the wrinkle recovery, tensile strength, dimension...
Silhouette Identification for Apparelled Bodies
This paper presents an approach to identify apparel silhouettes. A feature region of the human face was first proposed for conducting face detection in fashion pictures with the AdaBoost method, and the head was then loc...
