“…The structural parameters of knitted fabrics and majority of physical and mechanical properties depend on the technical characteristics of knitting machine and properties of yarns. The yarn diameter, origin of fibres, knitting structure, course and wale density, yarn twist level and linear density are the main factors affecting the porosity of knitted fabrics [15][16][17][18][19].…”

The main goal of the presented study was to develop new multi-layered weft-knitted structure for thermal insulation and to investigate the dynamic of the heat transfer through this fabric. For knitting of outer and inner layers of this structure, different raw materials of yarns were used, i.e. wool, cotton, polyester and acrylic yarns. All the newly developed multi-layered weft-knitted fabrics show thermal insulation as, after 1 h of observation, temperature on the outer layer of all tested fabrics does not reach 40℃, i.e. the temperature of a heated plate. The results of this research showed that the nature of the yarns has a significant influence on the air permeability and dynamic of the heat exchange through the multi-layered structure, as it influences porosity of the knitted fabric. The results showed that the best fabric was the one where the outer layers are knitted from woollen yarns and the inner layer from polyester filament yarns.

“…Meningkatnya permintaan serat kapas juga menyebabkan peningkatan penggunaan herbisida dan pestisida serta penggunaan pupuk dalam jumlah besar untuk monokultur kapas (Latif et al, 2018). Meskipun serat kapas berkelanjutan, namun produksi 1 kg serat kapas memerlukan lebih dari 20.000 liter air, menggunakan 24% insektisida dan 11% pestisida (Basit et al, 2019). Untuk memenuhi kebutuhan serat tekstil selain kapas, disamping meningkatnya perhatian akan dampak lingkungan akibat penggunaan polimer sintetik yang sulit didegradasi dari sumber daya yang tidak terbarukan, telah mendorong pencarian solusi alternatif bahan baku.…”

Serat sintetis dari minyak bumi memiliki posisi penting dalam produk tekstil. Lebih dari 50% produksi serat dunia didominasi oleh serat sintetik. Meskipun serat sintetik lebih murah, produktivitasnya tinggi, dan lebih tahan lama tetapi serat tersebut tidak dapat terurai secara alami dan proses pembuatannya menggunakan bahan yang dapat merusak lingkungan dan mengancam kesehatan. Meningkatnya kesadaran terhadap isu-isu terkait ekologi dan lingkungan telah mendorong pencarian solusi alternatif bahan baku dan pengembangan metode pembuatan serat yang ramah lingkungan. Serat regenerasi merupakan jenis serat semisintetik yang dibuat dari hasil regenerasi selulosa yang menggunakan bahan baku terbarukan yaitu kayu dan nonkayu yang diproses lebih lanjut menjadi dissolving pulp. Serat ini lebih ramah lingkungan karena lebih mudah terdegradasi. Metode regenerasi serat selulosa lebih berkelanjutan dibandingkan penggunaan bahan baku minyak bumi yang ketersediannya terbatas. Dalam makalah ini dipaparkan sejumlah metode pembuatan serat rayon untuk tekstil menggunakan proses konvensional hingga proses alternatif yang lebih ramah lingkungan. Proses tersebut antara lain proses nitrat, cuproammonium, asetat, viskosa, lyocell, larutan ionik, modal, dan karbamat. Tujuan makalah ini adalah untuk memberikan informasi komprehensif mengenai berbagai proses pembuatan serat rayon serta keunggulan dan kelemahan yang menyertainya, karakteristik dan sifat serat yang diperoleh, dan metode terbaru seperti lyocell dan larutan ionik memiliki dampak lingkungan yang relatif rendah sehingga memiliki potensi untuk dikembangkan. Review: Making Rayon FiberAbstractSynthetic fibers from petroleum have an important position in textile products. More than 50% of the world’s fiber production is dominated by synthetic fibers. Although synthetic fibers are cheaper, high productivity, and more durable, they cannot biodegrade naturally and the manufacturing process uses materials that can damage the environment and threaten health. Increased awareness of issues related to ecology and the environment hasled to the search for alternative solutions for new raw materials and the development of environmentally friendly fiber making process. Regenerated fiber is a type of semisynthetic fiber made from cellulose regeneration using renewable raw materials such as wood and non-wood which are further processed into dissolving pulp. This fiber is more environmentally friendly because it is more easily degraded. Regenerated fiber methods are more sustainable than the use of petroleum raw materials which have limited availability. In this paper, a number of methods for making rayon fibers for textiles are presented using conventional processes to alternative processes that are more environmentally friendly. These processes include nitrate, cuproammonium, acetate, viscose, lyocell, ionic solution, modal, and carbamate. The purpose of this paper is to provide comprehensive information on the various processes of making rayon fibers as well as the advantages and disadvantages, the characteristics and properties of the fibers, and the latest methods such as lyocells and ionic solutions have relatively low environmental impact so that they have the potential to be developed.Keywords: dissolving pulp, rayon fiber, cellulose, textile, viscose

“…To know the fiber content of a fabric is essential because fiber content directly determines the performance, usage, and care of the fabric [1][2][3]. Due to their properties, cotton, wool, and polyester are the most widely used fibers in the textile industry [4].…”

Classification of material type is crucial in the recycling industry since good quality recycling depends on the successful sorting of various materials. In textiles, the most commonly used fiber material types are wool, cotton, and polyester. When recycling fabrics, it is critical to identify and sort various fiber types quickly and correctly. The standard method of determining fabric fiber material type is the burn test followed by a microscopic examination. This traditional method is destructive, tedious, and slow since it involves cutting, burning, and examining the yarn of the fabric. We demonstrate that the identification procedure can be done nondestructively using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and deep learning. The OCT image scans of fabrics that are composed of different fiber material types such as wool, cotton, and polyester are used to train a deep neural network. We present the results of the created deep learning models’ capability to classify fabric fiber material types. We conclude that fiber material types can be identified nondestructively with high precision and recall by OCT imaging and deep learning. Because classification of material type can be performed by OCT and deep learning, this novel technique can be employed in recycling plants in sorting wool, cotton, and polyester fabrics automatically.
