Technical Textiles

It can take the form of digital devices used for learning and work, cushioning that improves physical comfort, or protective materials that safeguard machinery and people. What makes it remarkable is not just its functionality but its ability to transform across different industries and lifestyles. From education and creativity to healthcare and construction, its influence is everywhere, shaping the way people live and work.
Digital Evolution and Smart Living
Modern technology has transformed the way we approach tasks, and among the most influential tools driving this change is the pad. Compact, portable, and powerful, it combines the best features of both smartphones and computers. Students use it to take interactive lessons, professionals rely on it for meetings and presentations, and designers sketch ideas with accuracy that rivals traditional art tools.
Unlike bulky desktops or small-screen phones, digital tablets strike the perfect balance between mobility and performance. They offer stylus compatibility, cloud synchronisation, and multitasking capabilities that make both studying and working more efficient. Industries are also embracing these devices, reducing paperwork, enabling virtual collaboration, and streamlining communication. This evolution underscores how digital solutions continue to transform not only education and business, but also daily life in general.
What makes digital tablets so transformative is their ability to adapt to different needs seamlessly. For business executives, they serve as virtual offices, storing presentations, schedules, and communication tools in a single, compact device. For students, they replace piles of textbooks, offering access to entire libraries at the tap of a screen. For families, tablets serve as entertainment hubs where streaming, gaming, and social interaction converge. Their multi-purpose nature ensures that they are not limited to one demographic but remain useful across ages and professions.
Another factor driving their popularity is their eco-friendly contribution. As more organisations shift toward paperless systems, digital tablets drastically cut down on printing and physical waste. This not only reduces environmental impact but also aligns with global efforts toward sustainability. Even small-scale users benefit from this shift, as note-taking, sketching, and journaling now require no paper, ink, or physical storage space.
Enhancing Education and Creativity
The role of tablets in education has gone far beyond novelty—it has become a necessity. Classrooms worldwide are integrating these devices to provide interactive and engaging experiences. Lessons can now include videos, simulations, and live annotations that help students better understand complex concepts. Remote learning, too, benefits from its versatility, ensuring that access to quality education is not limited by location.
For creative professionals, tablets are now indispensable. Artists experiment with colours and shapes digitally, saving time and resources while gaining flexibility. Writers and thinkers enjoy the convenience of drafting without the distractions of clutter, while musicians can compose and refine music through specialised applications. What ties all of these examples together is freedom—the ability to experiment, express, and excel with fewer limitations.
Comfort and Lifestyle Benefits
Beyond technology, cushioning products continue to improve comfort in everyday routines. For example, ergonomic seating and bedding accessories help reduce physical strain, promoting healthier postures and better rest. In offices and homes alike, people rely on them to make long hours of work or study more bearable.
In the fitness world, protective gear and mats help prevent injuries and enhance performance. Whether during yoga sessions or high-intensity workouts, these additions ensure both safety and comfort. Healthcare settings also depend on specialised cushions to support patients during recovery, providing relief that directly influences healing. Even in fashion, enhancements like insoles or structural padding influence comfort and style, showing how deeply integrated these solutions are in lifestyle choices.
Industrial and Professional Impact
When it comes to industries, the significance of these products becomes even clearer. In automotive engineering, they ensure smooth braking and safety on the road. In construction, they minimise vibrations, absorb shocks, and extend the lifespan of heavy equipment. Factories use protective layers to prevent damage to machinery, reduce noise, and keep workers safe.
Healthcare industries also benefit from their versatility. Specialised designs offer hygiene, comfort, and stability during treatments, balancing practicality with compassion. In each sector, they may appear as small components, but their absence would create significant inefficiencies and risks. That is why they remain essential to modern operations, silently ensuring safety, durability, and performance.
Energy and manufacturing sectors also demonstrate heavy reliance on such components. Power plants use vibration-absorbing materials to protect delicate instruments, while heavy-duty machines often depend on reinforcement to withstand constant usage. By absorbing stress and prolonging the life of equipment, these solutions not only reduce maintenance costs but also contribute to overall efficiency.
Conclusion
The pad may look ordinary, but its impact is anything but. From digital transformation and creative growth to lifestyle comfort and industrial safety, it has proven itself to be versatile across every aspect of human life. What makes it truly powerful is its ability to adapt—shaping education, improving wellness, and enabling industries to function smoothly. As innovation continues, this essential tool will remain at the heart of progress, reminding us that even the simplest objects can carry the greatest significance.

This work investigates the establishment of a factory system with a working village in the suburban area of the city of Recife, at the Macaxeira Factory, which was oficially named Fabrica de Apipucos (and then Coronel Othon Factory), owned by Cotonificio Othon Bezerra de Mello conglomerate, which gathered three other factories, two in the center of the city and another located in the suburb of Varzea. The Macaxeira Factory founded in 1895, by the engineers Antonio Braz da Cunha and Alfredo Silva, only came to have its working village after being acquired by the merchant Othon Bezerra de Mello, in the year 1925. On this date began the consolidation of a peculiar system of domination which provided the establishment of manpower around factory labor, so that industrial control could overflow over the domestic sphere of industrial tenants’ workers. This relationship between the employer and the employed labor force residing in the working village of the factory assumed a series of tacit...

Perhaps the most obvious function of an infant incubator is to protect infants during the earliest stage of life, when they're most vulnerable. As fully enclosed and controllable environments, incubators can be used to protect babies from a wide range of possible dangers, according Incubators which are fully temperature controlled, shielding infants from harmful cold, and they provide insulation from outside noise, making it easier for them to get plenty of comfortable rest. Incubator environments can be kept sterile, protecting infants from germs and minimizing the risk of infection. The enclosure also keeps out all airborne irritants like dust and other allergens. The cradle of the incubator is a roomy and comfortable surface, so it's possible to leave the infant in place while many examinations and even simple medical procedures are administered. This protects infants from too much handling, which can be a concern in the case of some premature births. Due to the growing demand for comfortable, clean, and hygienic textile goods, an urgent need for production of antimicrobial textile goods has arisen. With the advent of new technologies, the growing needs of consumers in terms of health and hygiene can be fulfilled without compromising issues related to safety, human health, and the environment .

Medical textiles, including non-implantable and implantable ones, play a central role in the contemporary healthcare setting, and they are paramount in treating wounds, regeneration, and controlling infections. Implantable textiles (sutures, vascular grafts, artificial ligaments), etc., are used to stabilize tissues and guarantee their harmless incorporation with a focus on the use of biocompatible materials, such as polyglycolic acid, polyester, and collagen. Textiles that are not associated with implantation, such as bandages, wound dressings, and surgical gowns are based more on the comfort and functionality of the products, using cotton, chitosan, and calcium alginate to achieve the desired absorbency of the bandages and antimicrobial effect of wound dressings and surgical gowns. The processing modus could not be left behind, where 3D knitting allows the production of custom implants and nanotechnology increases the biocompatibility of the implant by coating them with a material such as nanosized silver. That change toward the comfort of patients can be seen in breathable and flexible materials and biodegradable dressings with as little irritation as possible. Biocompatibility is essential in that it is very important and has to be tested strictly to ascertain the safety of implants and other products that need to be skin-friendly but not implanted. The new developments incorporate smart textiles with sensors to monitor in real time, which is likely to achieve a market of 1 billion by 2024, and compostable materials that overcome environmental issues. There is a long-term study of biocompatibility, complications in regulatory stages, and trade-offs between sustainability and performance. It is recommended that biodegradable polymers need to be developed, uniform testing needs to be adopted and collaboration between the disciplines needs to be promoted. This overview emphasizes the disruptive capabilities of medical fabrics as it is important to further innovate to improve the results of patient care and sustainability within the medical industry.

Conductive textiles play an important role in modern textile science as scientists are trying to integrate electronic devices into clothing for various purposes such as transmitting, tracking, and controlling movements. For this reason, researchers are trying to improve the conductivity of fabrics or yarns by using various materials and methods. In this study, the authors optimized conductive ink solution which is based on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) known as electrically conductive which is applicable to traditional silk and wool textile products by printing and dyeing methods. With this application, the authors offered an innovative approach to the production of conductive textile surfaces. Several tests have been done to find out the change of conductivity and if those materials are applicable for our daily life usage. After applying AgNPs ink solution, the conductivity of silk (34.78 S/cm) is much higher than wool (25.28 S/cm) but after the color-fastness to rubbing test, wool's (2.12 S/cm) conductivity is much higher than silk (1.01 S/cm). On the other hand, after the wash fastness test, the conductivity of wool decreased (5.43 S/cm). So, the authors have found that the conductive wool yarn is much more stable than silk yarn or fabric for daily life application

Core-spun yarns incorporating a textured nylon multifilament core were prepared by introducing the multifilament core along with a drafted ribbon of fibres as the latter entered the nip of the front rollers of a ring frame. The geometrical disposition of the core was altered by changing the twist multiplier, pre-tension and the type offeeding of the sheath material, and the effects of these changes on the tensile properties were evaluated. Comparison of the stress-strain curves for the core-spun yarns with those for the continuous filament and cotton yarns of the same counts spun under identical conditions highlighted the beha viour of the components in a core-spun yarn undergoing strain. The contribution of the cotton components to core-spun yarn strength was assessed by the study of cotton fibre breakage at various levels of yarn strain. The results from the Instron tensile tester reveal the mode of strain distribution along the length of the yarn. The process of rupture of the co...

The union fabrics were made from eri with cotton and eri with polyester. The 2/60s eri silk yarn was used as warp and 2/40s cotton and polyester yarns were used as weft to construct the eri union fabrics using three different weaves namely plain, twill and satin. The prepared eri x cotton and eri x polyester union fabrics and also the pure eri x eri fabrics were tested for different physical properties. Properties of union fabric developed in a traditional handloom using 60s reed count. The quality parameters, viz., fabric tensile strength and elongation, crease recovery, drapability, thickness, abrasion, stiffness of the developed fabric, met essential apparel requirements. A comparative subjective evaluation of the fabric quality, viz., aesthetic appearance, luster, texture, was made with the help of a group of people from different age, educational and occupational background to examine the tactile properties as well as suitability of the fabric for the prepared products, all the respondents felt that eri x cotton twill, eri x polyester twill and eri x polyester satin were good in appearance.

Pressure applied on the top roller of drafting zone is a vital factor on which the quality of ultimate yarn depends. Drafting zone is needed to reduce the mass per unit length of input material. Appropriate contact of top rollers with bottom rollers is necessary to ensure proper drafting. In this paper, the effects of different front top roller pressure of drafting zone on the quality of 20Ne cotton-flax blended yarns (C:L = 45:55) were studied. It was observed that a higher pressure value gives a lower co-efficient of mass variation, imperfections, hairiness and higher evenness, tenacity, elongation properties.

Fabric deformation properties considerably depend on its structure. Garment elasticity is an important factor that allows a garment wearer to move freely. Fabric deformation depends on the structure parameters of yarrn and fabric. It has been known that elongation at break of fabric with elastane yarn is higher than of ordinary fabric. The aim of this work was to analyse elongation at break parameters of the and warp and weft yarn in fabrics. Ten commercially produced samples of woven fabrics were used in the experiment. Some samples were with elastan yarn in the warp and weft directions or only in the weft direction. Elongation at break was measured applying a standard method. The results showed that elongation at break of the main elastic component or another component may occur simultaneously when an elastic component or elastane yarn may reach fabric ultimate elongation.

The woven fabrics structural mobility has some influence on the garment design and pattern construction. Deformation peculiarities during six textile fabrics extension were analysed in this work. Four of the tested fabrics had the elastane filaments in their structure. The method of parallelepiped shaped specimen uniaxial extension till fixed strain was used. The experiment was carrying out using a "Tinius Olsen HT10" tension machine. The specimens' deformation exceeds 14 %. The parallelepiped shape of specimen's was received by cut of its top and bottom edges with pitch of 16 degrees. The woven fabrics structure mobility was analyzed using strain-stress curves, numerical and graphical results. The results of this research work have shown that deformation peculiarities of the woven fabrics depend on their structural characteristics: density, thickness, wave and presence of elastane filaments. Taking into account the more considerable extensibility of elastane fibre the shearing phenomenon was not occurred finally during specimens' deformations. The results indicated that for the tested fabrics deformation till stated degree the force from 0.6 N till 9.4 N is necessary.

Textile materials, which are different in fibre content, weave type, density and thickness, as well as multi-layered synthetic leathers, are used in soft furniture upholstery production. Deformation -relaxation behaviour, which depends on mechanical properties of such materials differs significantly, also. From this standpoint substantial problem exists in soft furniture production, because the dimensions of its upholstery patterns, i.e. initial pretention must be adjusted taking into account the differences of applied materials mechanical properties. Otherwise external view and quality of upholstery may be unacceptable due to obvious visual material excess on soft furniture surfaces, which is called pull-on ease. The aim of this investigation was to determine the dependencies between three different levels of soft furniture upholstery pre-tension and corresponding values of pull-on ease. New testing method presented in this study allows defining soft furniture upholstery deformational behaviour and its regularities in respect to the initial dimensions of upholstery patterns.

This applied research study investigates the integration of air-permeability on the woven textile fabric into garment automation processes, focusing on enhancing efficiency and product quality in modern apparel manufacturing. Air-permeable fabrics, renowned for their breathability and comfort, are widely used in sectors such as sportswear and activewear. However, these materials pose challenges not to applying vacuum suction technology for grabbing fabric when applying vacuum suction grabbing technology for automated handling during loading and unloading of woven fabric in automated machines. Based on experimental calculations and analysis, it was determined that air-impermeable woven fabrics can be effectively grasped by vacuum suction grippers. The research explores how the textile structure of woven fabrics can be optimized for use within automated systems, addressing both the challenges and opportunities associated with their application. The methodology included a comprehensive literature review to understand current practices in garment automation, followed by experiments and simulations to evaluate the performance of air-permeable fabrics in automated machinery. Key factors such as yarn structure, permeability coefficient, pore length, pore width, and pore area were analyzed using specific formulas to assess how these properties influence grabbing technology for garment automation. In conclusion, this research provides valuable insights for manufacturers seeking to integrate air-permeable fabrics into automated systems, offering recommendations for fabric selection and process adaptations. These findings contribute to the advancement of garment automation, supporting the production of innovative and efficient apparel products through robotic automation within the garment and textile industries.

A textile material’s electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness mainly depends on the material’s electrical conductivity and porosity. Enhancing the conductivity of the material surface can effectively improve the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. However, the use of highly conductive materials increases production cost, and limits the enhancement of electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. This work aims to improve the EMI shielding effectiveness (EMSE) by using an ultrathin multilayer structure and the air-permeable textile MEFTEX. MEFTEX is a copper-coated non-woven ultrathin fabric. The single-layer MEFTEX SE test results show that the higher its mass per unit area (MEFTEX 30), the better its SE property between 56.14 dB and 62.53 dB in the frequency band 30 MHz–1.5 GHz. Through comparative testing of three groups samples, a higher electromagnetic shielding effect is obtained via multilayer structures due to the increase in thickness and decrease of volume...

The present study carries on the characterization of dry reinforcement structure for composite material. Yarn properties were analyzed to select the optimal level of twist. The influence of 3D-warp interlock structure's bending type was also investigated. Structures, made with 1000Tex flax roving, were woven on a dobby loom. Physical characterization and mechanical testing (tensile test) were conducted on the four different binding structures (AL, AT, OL and OT) to provide relevant data and identify the influence of the binding warp yarns' path inside 3D warp interlock structure.

Modern military camouflage is based on wellfounded science. A deep understanding of the laws of physics and physiology enables a remarkable array of camouflage patterns and colours. Traditionally, camouflage formulations were intended to make soldiers and equipment less visible to enemy eyes in a range of wavelengths on the electromagnetic spectrum, especially the visible (400-800 nm), near-infrared region (NIR) (750-1200 nm), and thermal or far-infrared region (FIR) (3-5 and 8-14 μm). Camouflage must also meet military textile standard specifications and requirements such as colourfastness to light, washing, and perspiration to ensure changes to visible or infrared concealment are not compromised in use or as a result of cleaning.

This paper will be a strenuous analysis of reviewed literature regarding aesthetics in films and how the colour grade influences the films narrative and story. With reference to similar methodological theories, as well as contradictive ones, and the complexity of the accusation that colour is used for aesthetic purposes rather than for narrative ones. Colour grading is the process of adding colour to film and changing the overall look, genre, and mood of the film. For example, it is noticeable when you compare a commercialised horror to a standard westernised comedy – horrors are generally very dark, cold, and slightly desaturated to give
the film a grim look, whereas comedies are vibrant and saturated to make it feel warm and appealing; think of Adam Sandler’s Happy Madison films from the 90s to 2010s. This passage aims to explore colour combinations within films and questions to what extent the colour choices are utilized from pre-production to the colour grading in post-production. Like
Bukatman (2006), this study is concerned with finding points of interaction with both aesthetics of attraction and narrative of attraction. It aims to identify “the tropes and properties that allow attraction and narrative to converse dynamically in cinematic space,” (Hillenbrand 2012: 221)
and how colour grading can affect the overall narrative of a film when done tastefully. This paper will also explore how the colour grade was manipulated in the feature film, “Bound” to serve the narrative of the film and how the colour grade is used beyond aesthetic appeal.

Thennobonding is widely used in producing of nonwovens. In this study various layers of thennobonded nonwovens were produced by altering the pressure, binder fibers and quality of blending. Mechanical properties of the so-called layers such as breaking strength and breaking elongation, bending rigidity and air penneability were assessed consequently. The stmcture of the layers was then studied by scmming electron microscope (SEM) and the interaction between the structure and mechanical properties and failure mechanism of the layers was investigated. This study shows that the interstmcture appears in the fonn of point stmcture and agglomerate stmcture when bicomponent PET and PP fibers were used as the binder respectively. The detrimental effect of the interstmcture on the mechanical behavior of layers was spotted during the experiments. The results indicate that the magnitude of the pressure, the type of the binder fiber and stages of blending affect the interstmcture enonnously. SEM examination of the fractured ends of the layers after stretching could assess the likely mechanism of failure of layers fonned by bicomponent PET binder and polyvropylene binder fiber.
