  1. 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 ekonomi

    Author : Julia Svensson; Hanna Halldorf; [2023]
    Keywords : Spacer fabric; knitting; warp knit; circular knit; textile testing; ProCad Warpknit; infant product; comfort; mechanical properties.;

    Abstract : 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.

  3. 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 ekonomi

    Author : Sara Isabel Zamora Lagos; [2023]
    Keywords : Innovation; Screen-printing; Knitted fabric; Polyester; Cotton; Organic Solvents; Cycle; Properties; Physical; Structure; Sensorial.;

    Abstract : 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.

  4. 3. Impact of textile structure on mechanical recyclability

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Linnéa Bengtsson Creaser; [2023]
    Keywords : Textile recycling; mechanical recycling; textile tearing; fiber length; recyclability;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the impact of yarn and fabric structure on the mechanical recyclability of textile structures. It focuses on variations in yarn twist and form (single or plied) as well as fabric type (woven or knitted) and their respective constructions. READ MORE

  5. 4. Shielding effect to the flammable fibres offered by inherently flame retardant fibres

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Jasra Khan; [2019]
    Keywords : Inherently flame retardant fibres; flammable fibres; Flame; Non-woven fabric; knitted fabric;

    Abstract :  Flame retardant chemicals were used to make flammable fibres or fabrics flame retardant. Flame retardants protect the flammable material from fire by delaying or preventing the ignition process. The problem with flame retardants is unreliable durability when applied physically or bonded chemically on the surface of the fibre or fabric. READ MORE

  6. 5. Knittin of carbon and Dyneema® fibres to fit for contour sahpes in composites

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Sharath Panduranga Shahu; [2016]
    Keywords : Knitted fabrics; Dyneema® fibres; carbon fibres; Rib structure; in-plane; out of plane;

    Abstract : Textile process and textile structures that are suitable for composites are carefully studied and chosen to have weft knitted fabrics. The aim of this research is to knit the carbon and Dyneema® fibres in circular weft knitting to fit contour shapes. READ MORE
