The Effect of Cotton Yarn Properties on Yarn End Breakage

Abstract

In this work the effect of cotton yarn properties on yarn end breakage was investigated. The yarn nominal linear densities were 20, 25 and 36 tex and each of them, had three levels of twists. Following yarn properties were investigated: linear density, twists, tensile strength, elongation at break and irregularity. Standard methods were applied to determine these yarn properties and hronometric method for yarn end breakage was used. It was only the yarn linear density, among all yarn properties, that showed significant correlation with yarn end breakage (-0,75 to -0,96). It was shown that about 80% of all yarn end breakage are occurred in places with fineness lower than average cross section of the yarn that point out that the thin places of the yarn are inclined to breaking. Also, the mutuality effect of geometrical characteristics and physical-mechanical properties of the yarn on end breakage was investigated.     

Advanced Surface of Fibrous Activated Carbon Immobilized with FeO/TiO2 for Photocatalytic Evolution of Hydrogen under Visible Light

FeO-doped TiO₂ nanoparticle photocatalysts were immobilized onto the surface of fibrous activated carbon (ACF) via a sol-gel process. As an adsorbent and photocatalyst, FeO-TiO₂ on immobilized ACFs (FeO-TiO₂/ACF) greatly improved the photocatalysis rate of hydrogen production as compared with pure TiO₂ and ACF-TiO₂ under UV irradiation and visible light. The addition of ACFs surface significantly reduced the photogenerated pairs of electrons-hole recombination, thereby promoting the photocatalysis action of doped photo-metal oxides of FeO-TiO₂. Co-doping of FeO onto the lattice of the TiO₂ approach can improve the absorption activity of visible light through photo-metal oxide of TiO₂ and further enhance hydrogen production under visible light. The photocatalytic fabrics (FeO-TiO₂/ACF) were effortlessly split out from the experimental solution for re-utilization and exhibited high stability even after five complete regeneration cycles.     

Novel regenerable N‐halamine polymeric biocides. III. Grafting hydantoin‐containing monomers onto synthetic fabrics

A novel cyclic‐amine monomer, 3‐allyl‐5,5‐dimethylhydantoin (ADMH) was synthesized and characterized. ADMH alone could not be grafted onto ordinary polymers. However, the presence of triallyl‐1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)‐trione (TATAT) remarkably enhanced the ADMH grafting yield onto synthetic fabrics. The influences of reaction conditions on the grafting copolymerization were investigated. After chlorine bleach treatment, hydantoin units in the grafted copolymers were transformed into N‐halamine structures. Treated samples exhibited potent antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli, and the functional properties were shown to be durable and regenerable. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Absorption of metal cations by modified B. mori silk and preparation of fabrics with antimicrobial activity

Silk fabrics were modified by treatment with tannic acid (TA) solution or by acylation with ethylenediaminetetraacetic (EDTA) dianhydride. Kinetics of modification with TA and acylation with EDTA–dianhydride was investigated. The physico‐mechanical properties of silk fabrics acylated with EDTA–dianhydride remained unchanged regardless of chemical modification. The absorption of metal cations (Ag⁺, Cu²⁺) by untreated and modified silk fabrics was studied as a function of the kind of modifying agent, weight gain, and pH of the metal solution. The absorption of Cu²⁺ at alkaline pH was not significantly influenced by chemical modification of the silk substrate. The absorption of Ag⁺ by acylated silk remained at a level as low as untreated silk, while was enhanced by TA. The higher the content of TA, the higher the absorption of Ag⁺. With respect to the pH of the metal solution, the acylation with EDTA–dianhydride enabled silk to absorb and bind metal cations even in the acidic and neutral pH range, where tannic acid had no effect. Medium to high levels of metal desorption were exhibited by untreated and modified silk fabrics towards the metal cations, with the only exception of the silk–tannic acid–Ag complex, which displayed an extraordinary stability. All metal‐containing silks exhibited significant antibacterial activity. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 80: 297–303, 2001

Physicochemical Studies on the Interfacial and Bulk Behaviors of Sodium N-Dodecanoyl Sarcosinate (SDDS)

Sodium N-dodecanoyl sarcosinate (SDDS), a novel amino-acid based surfactant, has immense biological and industrial importance. Although it is being used in a number of cosmetic formulations, systematic analysis of the bulk and interfacial properties of the surfactant is scarce in the literature. In this study, effects of salt, temperature, and pH on the self-association and related properties of SDDS have been examined in detail using methods such as tensiometry, conductometry, fluorimetry, pH-metry, spectrophotometry, calorimetry, and circular dichroism. The nature of amphiphilic packing and the aggregation numbers of the assemblies have been deciphered. Properties of the acid form of the surfactant have also been explored. The results have been conceptually rationalized and systematically presented together with associated energetics of the interfacial adsorption and self-aggregation of the surfactant in the bulk.

Synthesis of the cotton cellulose based Fe(III)-loaded adsorbent for arsenic(V) removal from drinking water

A novel macroporous bead adsorbent, Fe(III)-loaded ligand exchange cotton cellulose adsorbent [Fe(III)LECCA], is synthesized for selective adsorption of arsenate anions [As(V)] from drinking water in batch and column systems. As(V) adsorption on Fe(III)LECCA was independent of pH, especially in drinking water pH range. Film diffusive control mechanism will benefit As(V) exchange with Fe(III)LECCA whether in batch or in column experiments. When treating the tap water at 26.0 BV/h, the column still preserves 83% of the original saturation adsorption capacity of the As(V) aqueous solution. These results have indicated that Fe(III)LECCA has the potential to act as an adsorbent for the removal of As(V) from drinking water considering its availability, nontoxicity and cost-effectiveness.
