Electromagnetic shielding has a very emerging role in the textile applications. Screen-printing is a well-known, easy and cost effective process for textile printing. In this study, carbon black and graphite particles were used to impart electromagnetic shielding property to polyester fabric by screen printing technique. To this aim, printing paste...

Seaweed-based SeaCell® fibres have been considered as new materials for textile industry. In this study, seaweedbased SeaCell® Active fibres which have antifungal and antibacterial activity have been used. Simple, economic and green process is applied to investigate the bleaching performance of SeaCell® Active fabric. Bleaching process has been per...

In this study, MWCNTs were functionalized with nitric acid. The prepared MWCNTs were incorporated in polyester fabrics by the conventional dyeing process. The dyeing process was carried out by the exhaustion method. The polyester fabric was immersed in the MWCNTs dispersion and maintained in motion for a certain period of time and temperature. The...

In this study, the properties of flame retardant woven fabrics produced from the SeaCell (R) active and SeaCell (R) pure yarns, which are known as ecological and medical textile materials, were investigated. The yarns were produced from SeaCell (R) stapel fibres and then were woven into fabric. After dyeing, the fabrics flame retardants which has p...

Cost contribution of nonwoven materials in hygiene products such as baby's nappies is about 10%. One of the main contributors to the cost in breathable nappies is the breathable sheet. The advantages of breathable nappies are in fact to reduce problems caused by babies skin not being able to get air i.e. nappy rash etc.Moving from this idea of usin...
