(English) Air jet spinning is an emerging technology, already well established in the textile market. The commercial success increased over the last decades and intensified the research and innovation approach in the field ...
(English) Changes in the use of raw materials and major lifestyle changes in first world societies have driven the massive use of petroleum-based materials in a wide range of applications. Plastic waste has become pervasive ...
(English) In recent years, numerous studies have been carried out on functional textiles due to their ability to adapt and interact with the environment. In particular, special focus has been placed on dynamic textiles ...
(English) Currently there is a growing concern about the sustainability of the construction sector due to its great contribution to climate change. Approximately one third of carbon dioxide emissions are produced by this ...
En aquesta tesi s’estudien diverses tècniques per a la decoloració d’efluents de tintura amb colorants reactius i per a la reutilització dels efluents decolorats en noves tintures. Les tècniques utilitzades per eliminar ...
In the manufacture of polyester fiber, first takes place the synthesis of the polymer, and subsequently the spinning and stretching of the fibre. The conditions to which these processes occur, such as temperature, drawing ...
La lana es una fibra natural que aunque posee propiedades de confort apreciadas por el consumidor, presenta el inconveniente de encoger durante el lavado en medio acuoso. En una época en que la tendencia en el cuidado de ...
La presente tesis se enmarca en una de las líneas de investigación del Departamento de Ingeniería Textil y Papelera que se orienta a la Aplicación de la Biotecnología en los Procesos de Fabricación del Papel, en particular ...
En la actualidad el mercado carece de prendas elásticas para uso profesional puesto que los elastanos habitualmente utilizados son inestables frente a altas temperaturas y químicos agresivos, e.g. termofijado, mantenimiento ...
(English) Interest in new environmentally friendly cellulose-based products has tremendously increased in recent years. Cellulose-based composites come in various forms and have potential applications in construction, ...
The interest of studying this fiber resides in the fact that it is a biodegradable polymer that is obtained from annually renewable resources, besides being a fiber that is beginning to be introduced in the market. Nowadays ...
In this thesis, we study the improvement of the UV protection of polyester textiles by introducing nano or microparticles of TiO2 in the polyester during the extrusion of the yarn. Initially, the influence of different ...
Mathematical drug release modelling of biodegradable polymeric systems by microencapsulation technology in textiles has not progressed much yet, because it is generally too complex. The release of a therapeutic agent from ...
Drape indicators reported by textile researchers from 1950 to 2013 are examined. A total of 36 indicators were identified that are described in detail as regards geometric principle and calculation in order to unify existing ...
(English) The main objective of this work has been to obtain fibres and subsequently yarns and fabrics that are suitable for textile applications, through the cottonisation of an agricultural by-product of hemp (Cannabis ...
La importancia de una industria como la de los textiles de uso técnico y, la relevancia de Catalunya como polo de esta industria, son algunos de los motivos que han llevado a la realización de esta tesis, en la que se ha ...
La componente ultravioleta de la radiación solar, beneficiosa a pequeñas dosis, puede ser muy nociva por su efecto acumulativo sobre la piel. Los dermatólogos aconsejan protegerse de cantidades excesivas de radiación UV. ...
(English) Cotton, being a natural hollow fiber with remarkable economic values including moisture absorption, air permeability, softness, comfort, and warmth retention, has become one of the most essential raw materials ...
Medical applications of technical textiles are an expanding field of research. One of the added values of these new materials would be that they were suitable to contain and release active compounds in a controlled and ...
