Animal & Poultry Production Division, Desert Research Center, Egypt. [email protected] Abstract: Three hundred kg of raw camel-hair fibers (Magrabi camels) were collected during shearing season from Camel Research Station located in Matroh Governorate. The amount of camel-hair was subjectively classified into four categories control (C1, has no classification), coarse brown fibers (C2), coarser with white fibers liken to wool kemp fiber (C3) and fine fibers (C4). Results indicate that fine camel hair contains higher amount of B, Cd, Co, Cr, Fe, Mn, Ni and S compared with coarse fibers, while coarse fibers had higher Mo, Pb and Zn than fine fibers. Coarse fibers had the highest values of amino acids (THR, SER, GLU, GLY, ALA, VAL, MET, ILE, LEU, TYR, PHE, HIS, LYS, ARG and PRO). Sulfur content of camel hair takes an opposite trend of both MET and CYS with FD, SDFD, B-force, CV of B-force, CV of tenacity, yarn metric count, Twists/meter, twist multipliers and abrasion. Copper, which involved in forming pigments found to be higher in brown coarse categories C1 and C2. Hair bundle elongation reached the maximum in C4 (34.4%), while the lowest percentage found in C3 (4.6%). Category (4) had higher twist multipliers 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 times those of C3, C2 and C1, respectively. Fine fibers selecting subjectively from the camel-hair fleeces had a good quality as raw material and yarn.

    16 Textiles in defence* Richard A Scott Defence Clothing and Textiles Agency, Science and Technology Division, Flagstaff Road, Colchester, Essex CO2 7SS, UK 16.1 Introduction To be prepared for War is one of the most effectual means of preserving Peace (George Washington, 1790)1 Defence forces on land, sea, or air throughout the world are heavily reliant on tech- nical textiles of all types – whether woven, knitted, nonwoven, coated, laminated, or other composite forms. Technical textiles offer invaluable properties for military land forces in particular, who are required to move, live, survive and fight in hostile environments. They have to carry or wear all the necessities for comfort and sur- vival and thus need the most lightweight, compact, durable, and high performance personal clothing and equipment. The life-critical requirements for protecting indi- viduals from both environmental and battlefield threats have ensured that the major nations of the world expend significant resources in developing and providing the most advanced technical textiles for military use. 16.2 Historical background Military textile science is not new, and one of the earliest documented studies can probably be credited to Count Rumford, or Benjamin Thompson. Rumford was an American army colonel and scientist who issued a paper in 1792 entitled ‘Philo- sophical Transactions’, which reported on the importance of internally trapped air in a range of textile fabrics to the thermal insulation provided by those fabrics.2 He was awarded the Copley Medal for his paper, as the significance of his discovery was recognised immediately. * Copyright MOD (1997) DCTA, Colchester, Essex CO2 7SS 426 Handbook of technical textiles 16.2.1 Pre-Twentieth century Up until the end of the 19th century military land battles were fought at close quar- ters by individual engagements.

  • Exploring Plant Dyes Overview: Nature Presents an Incredible Visual Rainbow
    Exploring Plant Dyes Overview: Nature presents an incredible visual rainbow. For centuries, people have captured these natural hues for decorating animal skins, fabrics, crafts, hair, and bodies. Dyeing with plants can provide an intriguing lens for exploring the local environment, learning science concepts, conducting experiments, learning about history and other cultures, and creating compelling crafts. Grade Level/Range: K- 8th Objective: Students will investigate the use of plants to create natural dyes, experimenting with different dyeing methods and a variety of plant materials. Time: 1 hour to 4 days Materials: • Pounded Flower Prints: fresh flowers and leaves, rubber mallet, white or light-colored cotton fabric, safety goggles, wax paper, newspaper • Sun-Brewed Dye Bath: Distilled water or pre-measured tap water that has been allowed to sit uncovered for a day or two to allow chlorine to evaporate; various fibers (wool, cotton, silk, linen; fabric or yarn); glass pint jars with lids; alum* (aluminum potassium sulfate from a pharmacy, craft store, or spices section of grocery store); plastic wrap; paper towels; plastic or wooden spoons • Stovetop Dye Bath: Various plant materials, large enamel pot, hotplate or stovetop, large wooden spoon or spatula, alum*, cream of tartar* (available in spices section of grocery store), fabric or yarn, cheesecloth or nylon stockings *Note: Alum and cream of tartar are used as mordants. These are substances that act as fixatives to chemically attach or “set” the dye to the material being colored. Background Information: Since prehistoric times, humans from across the globe have used plant pigments to enrich their lives. Historians and scientists believe that prehistoric animal skins and cave paintings dating back to 15,000 B.C.

  • ALDI Textiles
    ALDI Textiles ALDI Textiles Guideline 2 Aloe Vera. Recognises the demand all on its own. A Aloe vera micro capsules are attached to the textile fibres using a binder. The friction from wearing causes the microcapsules to burst and release the moisturising substance. The advantage of the microcapsules is the fact that the encapsulated substance is only released when the fabric is mechanically stressed. Through the addition of the aloe vera capsules, the garment hydrates and moisturises the skin. Anti-Pilling. Reduces pilling. A Anti-pilling is a special finishing process for reducing the formation of pilling, meaning lint, in predominantly synthetic materials. This is primarily achieved through a mechanical process or heat treatment. ALDI Textiles Guideline 3 Breathable. Keeps you dry and keeps moisture away. B Breathable fabrics are defined as textiles which possess certain physiological properties which above all wick moisture away from the skin. Such materials may also be water-resistant and therefore protect against rain. See also: Cool & Fresh, COOLMAX® ALDI Textiles Guideline 4 Cotton. The all-rounder among textiles. C Cotton is derived from the soft seed hair of the cotton plant. The plant thrives in countries with a sub-tropical climate, such as the USA, Egypt, India, and South Africa, and in terms of volume is one of the most important raw textiles materials in the world. The quality of cotton wool is dependent on its fineness, strength, fibre length and consistency. See also: Wool, virgin wool, organic cotton, Pima cotton PROPERTIES: It is skin-friendly: Due to its softness, it is very pleasant on the skin.

Recently enhanced use of DTP is closely connected with production of high value-added products in fashion industry, which is also appropriate for quick response system(QRS). Quality of DTP depends on pre-treatment, after-treatment, ink, media, printer, etc. One of these parameters, Selection of good media is very important to obtain high quality of DTP products. Especially, the effects of media on printing quality of DTP according to yarn twist and structure of knitting fabric were examined in this study. Two types of yarn twist of 830 t.p.m and 1630 t.p.m for cotton knit were used and five types of media structures were knitted with single circular knitting machine.
