“…Three-dimensional woven composites are the materials of choice in many applications, such as aeronautic and astronautic, defense, automotive, construction, safety industry, etc. The fundamental advantage of 3D woven preforms over 2D laminate is the reinforcement in the thickness direction, which holds the yarn layers in place and provides structural stability [ 33 ]. This makes 3D woven composites delamination resistant.…”

“…Spacer fabric composites are an alternative to honeycomb or foam material to make sandwich structures because they exhibit superior mechanical properties [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ]. These composites are primarily used to manufacture double-walled tanks or the wall lining for chemical storage tanks, car and truck spoilers/fairings, lightweight walls, dome structures and composite tooling [ 33 ]. Sandwich structures constitute a thick and light-weight core sandwiched between two relatively thin face sheets and offer high bending stiffness while being light-weight.…”

The research is focused on the design and development of woven textile-based structural hollow composites. E-Glass and high tenacity polyester multifilament yarns were used to produce various woven constructions. Yarn produced from cotton shoddy (fibers extracted from waste textiles) was used to develop hybrid preforms. In this study, unidirectional (UD), two-dimensional (2D), and three-dimensional (3D) fabric preforms were designed and developed. Further, 3D woven spacer fabric preforms with single-layer woven cross-links having four different geometrical shapes were produced. The performance of the woven cross-linked spacer structure was compared with the sandwich structure connected with the core pile yarns (SPY). Furthermore, three different types of cotton shoddy yarn-based fabric structures were developed. The first is unidirectional (UD), the second is 2D all-waste cotton fabric, and the third is a 2D hybrid fabric with waste cotton yarn in the warp and glass multifilament yarn in the weft. The UD, 2D, and 3D woven fabric-reinforced composites were produced using the vacuum-assisted resin infusion technique. The spacer woven structures were converted to composites by inserting wooden blocks with an appropriate size and wrapped with a Teflon sheet into the hollow space before resin application. A vacuum-assisted resin infusion technique was used to produce spacer woven composites. While changing the reinforcement from chopped fibers to 3D fabric, its modulus and ductility increase substantially. It was established that the number of crossover points in the weave structures offered excellent association with the impact energy absorption and formability behavior, which are important for many applications including automobiles, wind energy, marine and aerospace. Mechanical characterization of honeycomb composites with different cell sizes, opening angles and wall lengths revealed that the specific compression energy is higher for regular honeycomb structures with smaller cell sizes and a higher number of layers, keeping constant thickness.

“…Since, in a circular economy, great importance is attached to maintaining or even increasing the value of the recycled products, various attempts have been made at the academic and industrial level to incorporate different cellulosic fibres from textile waste into thermoplastics [8][9][10], thermosets [11][12][13] or concrete [14][15][16] to enable specific applications such as sound-absorbing, partial load-bearing building elements, filter membranes, furniture and automotive components.…”

Increasing resource consumption and a growing amount of textile waste increase the importance of a circular economy and recycling in the fashion and apparel industry. Environmentally friendly bio-based composites made from cellulosic fibres obtained from textile waste, and polymers based on renewable raw materials present a possible solution. In this study, the development of textile semi-finished products based on medium-to-long cotton and flax fibres obtained from textile waste in combination with a bio-based thermoplastic matrix for lightweight applications is investigated. For the production of natural fibre-polylactide hybrid yarns, fibre slivers with improved fibre orientation and blending are produced. Subsequently, quasi-unidirectional woven fabrics are produced and consolidated into bio-based composites. Textile and mechanical properties of hybrid yarns as well as bio-composites are analysed with regard to the influence of fibre length, fibre distribution in the yarn, yarn structure and fibre volume content. The results show that the production of bio-based semi-finished products can be a potential way for upcycling textile waste.
