    GK LEOTARDS Customer Service Care Instructions GK offers fabrics that are produced to meet our exclusive stretch and quality standards. GK takes tremendous pride in having the best fabrics in the industry. As the leader in performance apparel, it's important for us to advise you of the tendencies of certain fabrics, as well as practices to avoid. Our fabrics can be grouped into two categories: Long Wearing Durable Fabrics: Nylon/Spandex, Velvet, DryTech, Brushed Tricot, TechMesh, Campus Stretchtek and Campus Performance Mesh. DryTech may shrink when heat is applied. Sequinz cannot be applied to Velvet or Mesh. Special Care Fragile Fabrics: Hologram, Mesh, and Nylon/spandex with Foil (Mystique) Note that certain high fashion fabrics are more susceptible to wear and fading than other traditional long wearing, durable fabrics. Hologram and Nylon/Spandex with Foil (Mystique) fabrics will dull slightly in jeweled areas due to heat application. Fragile Fabrics need extra special care: Repeated wear and washing may cause the fabrics to fade or lose foil. Alcohol in all aerosol products, such as hairspray, affect these fabrics. Please cover garment before applying. Perfumes and body lotions can also affect fragile fabrics. Deodorants and perspiration may cause these fabrics to color bleed, fade or lose foil, especially when the two colors meet under the arms. We recommend the use of pure crystal deodorant, which does not contain Aluminum Chlorohydrate. Mesh could potentially be damaged due to the rigors of certain routines, where person to person contact can add stress to the fabric. You are free to order this fabric, but do so with great discretion because Elite Sportswear, L.

In the 2 Unit paper the pattern of question choice was the same as the previous year, with a majority of candidates choosing a second ‘design’ question as their fourth selection. In Section I the most popular question was Question 4, relating to properties and performance, which was generally well done. The ‘dyeing and printing’ and ‘finishing’ questions attracted fewer candidates and those who attempted these questions did not give the depth and breadth required of a good answer. In Section II the most popular question was on ‘culture’ – Question 5 (a). Very few candidates chose the question on the Australian Textiles Industry. The two most popular questions in Section III were Questions 8 and 10. In 3 Unit the most popular questions were on ‘colour’ – Question 2 (a), and on ‘Theatre Arts’ – Question 5 (a). Both questions were extremely well done. The standard of the HSC examination scripts in 1998 was generally good, particularly in the Design section.

  • ABSTRACT LUONG VU, VICTORIA QUYNH NHU. Protégete
    ABSTRACT LUONG VU, VICTORIA QUYNH NHU. Protégete: Development of Pesticide Protective Clothing for Migrant Farmworkers on Tobacco Farms (Under the direction of Dr. Kate Annett- Hitchcock). The tobacco industry relies heavily on human labor, particularly migrant farmworkers, requiring them to work in extreme weather conditions and heavily utilize chemical pesticides (Mobed & Schenker, 1992; Fisher, 2000; Novotny et al, 2015). Migrant farmworkers are therefore at high risk of experiencing acute pesticide poisoning, green tobacco sickness, dehydration, and heat stroke while working in the fields. Migrant farmworkers are currently wearing cotton t-shirts, button down shirts, Tyvek coveralls and sometimes trash-bags as protective garments, which are not suitable for preventing exposure to the hazards on the field. In order to address the lack of available proper protective clothing against pesticide exposure for migrant farmworkers, this research continued the development of a pesticide repellent garment against flumetralin, a common pesticide used in tobacco farming. This study utilized hemp woven fabric modified with a Poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) finish on the surface that acts as a barrier by preventing dermal absorption of flumetralin. Mixed methods were carried out in two phases. The first phase involved performing standard physical, chemical, and laundering tests to determine the durability and effectiveness of the treated hemp against the flumetralin pesticide. The second phase involved holding a focus group with six tobacco growers from North Carolina to determine their value perception of the garment. Analysis of the data revealed that the PAA treated hemp is effective in protecting from the pesticide and durable enough to withstand laundering and tearing compared to fabrics currently worn in the fields.
