1. 3D Knit fabrics : optimizing spacer knit fabrics for comfort and breathability in infant products
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : In this study we looked into an existing textile baby stroller seat and investigated whether there can be any advantage in changing the material to a spacer fabric from perspectives such as functionality, comfort, and sustainability. The subject of 3D knitting, and advanced knitting is being researched more and more because of its versatility in producing and changing parameters of knitted high quality products, but there is a lack of studies done on comfort for children when it comes to knitted spacer fabrics and not many studies have been done on spacer fabrics used for baby seats in strollers or other types of seats for children.

2. Impact of Organic Solvent Treatments on Physical and Sensorial Properties of Knitted Fabrics.
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : Technologies that facilitate reusing and recycling printed textile products will contribute to achieving a circular textile industry. This project was done in collaboration with Vividye, a company developing a technology to create removable textile prints to be able to extend the lifespan of screen-printed textile products without affecting their quality.

3. Study on Decolorization of Reactive-dyed Cotton through Fenton-oxidation as a Pre-treatment for Textile Recycling
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : In this master thesis, the feasibility of Fenton-oxidation for the decolorization of reactive dyed cotton is investigated as a potentially environmental-friendly preparatory treatment for mechanical/chemical recycling. Raw, knitted cotton is dyed with a black and a blue dye, whereafter preliminary tests are performed to investigate the influence of increasing Fenton- solution concentrations and different iron-sources on the efficiency of the discoloration, without carrying out complete optimization of the process-parameters.

4. A skein of Hope: Strategically moving the emerging Swedish wool value chain towards sustainability
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för strategisk hållbar utvecklingAbstract : This thesis started with the discovery that in Sweden, about 70% of wool, a valuable material, is wasted in 2017. In recent years, a local value chain in Sweden has gained momentum to increase the use of Swedish wool as a circular and sustainable fibre for the textile industry in the country. READ MORE

5. Development and Optimization of Near-infrared spectroscopy
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : With the growing demand for sustainable options, the existing sorting capacities are limiting the potential for fiber-to-fiber recycling. With the help of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), automated sorting of textiles with high accuracy is possible due to the easy access for polymer identification. READ MORE
