French company Carbios says it has further developed its enzymatic depolymerization process so it can now be used for polyester fibers from textiles. After the company demonstrated that enzymatic ...
Fishing nets are mainly made from chemical fibers such as nylon and polyester to prevent rot as well as to ensure excellent strength and easy maintenance. Whereas common nylon fishing nets are ...
The new technique can help break mixed-fiber clothing back down into feedstock for future textiles. Less than 1% of clothing is recycled, and most of the rest ends up dumped in a landfill or burned. A ...
A consortium of seven companies headquartered across five countries has established a supply chain for more sustainable polyester fiber. Instead of fossil fuel materials, renewable and biobased ...
We have produced the world’s first 700 nm, ultra-fine polyester nanofiber via continuous research and development using state-of-the-art nanotechnology. The proposed sea/island composite-spinning ...
In a significant step toward creating a sustainable and circular economy, Rice University researchers have published a study ...
A schematic of the overall process by which PANI manufactures composite fibers: (from left to right) forming a liquid crystal phase based on carbon nanotubes, spinning it into a coagulation bath, ...
What do I know from synthetic fibers? Not a whole lot except I do have a long-standing bias against polyester and the wide-collared polyester shirts and permanent press pants from the 1970s. It was ...
The structural properties of composite materials are derived primarily from the fiber reinforcement. In a composite, the fiber, held in place by the matrix resin, contributes tensile strength, ...
