After understanding these terminology students will be able to know the processes involved in achieving desired fabric quality. 1 INTRODUCTION TO CHEMICAL PROCESSING: PRE-TREATMENTS 1.1 TEXTILE CHEMICAL PROCESSING FOR THE FIBERS (PREPARATORY OPERATIONS) Newly constructed fabric as it comes from the mill is called gray good. This does not imply that the fabric is gray in color, it simply denotes any unfinished fabric. The goods must pass through various finishing processes to make it suitable for its intended end use. Finishing may change the appearance of the fabric, its hand (feel), its serviceability, and its durability. Gray goods must be cleaned before they can be finished.

  • Chapter 6 Mutual Evasion Between Afghanistan and the Global Marketplace
    Connecting Histories in Afghanistan Shah Mahmoud Hanifi Chapter 6 Mutual Evasion between Afghanistan and the Global Marketplace The Sethis of Peshawar and the British Recruitment of Secret Asiatic Agents The Sethis of Peshawar are the city's most renowned and historically active family trading 1 firm. The Sethi firm was based in Peshawar and had branches of operation throughout India, Afghanistan, Central Asia, and beyond in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. According to senior representatives of the family interviewed in 1995, the family migrated from the town of Bhera in the Punjab to Chamkani, a village suburb a few miles east of Peshawar, during the period of Sikh rule.1 At that time the family is said to have dealt in karakul wool, copper, gold thread, skins, Russian crockery, dried fruit, and, especially tea and timber. Branches of the Sethi family business in Shanghai and Vladivostok organized the export of Chinese tea to Central Asia via India and Afghanistan.2 The Sethis indicate that Abd al-Rahman granted their family the right to lease the Jaji forest in the Paktia province of eastern Afghanistan from where they exported timber through Parachinar to Thal in British India.3 In Kabul the Sethi business house and serai complex was located in the southeastern section of the city near the masjid-i hamam in Shor Bazaar and the two streets where the Hindu population was concentrated, guzar-i kalan and guzar-i khurd. In Peshawar, the center of their mercantile network, the Sethis funded the construction and renovation of many mosques and bridges.

  • Inter-Asian Connections
    Conference on Inter-Asian Connections Detail of migration map of Asia: courtesy UNHCR Conference Proceedings February 21-23, 2008 Dubai, United Arab Emirates Co-Organized by the Social Science Research Council (SSRC) and the Dubai School of Government (DSG) Funded by the Ford Foundation Sponsored by DSG, Zayed University, the University of Dubai, the National Bank of Dubai, and Dubai Properties INTRODUCTION This international conference brought together over one hundred fifty leading scholars from renowned universities to explore an exciting new frontier of “Inter-Asian” research. The conference was organized around eleven concurrent workshops featuring innovative research from the social sciences and related disciplines on themes of particular relevance across Asia. Workshop themes, directors, and participants were selected by an SSRC committee in a highly competitive process: the conference organizers received 105 applications for workshop directors and 582 applications for workshop participants. In addition to the eleven workshops, the conference also showcased the work of the South Asia Regional Fellowship Program (SARFP), bringing together fellows who had been awarded collaborative grants to work on inter-country projects in the South Asia region. The structure and schedule of the conference were designed to enable intensive working group interactions on a specific research theme, as well as broader interactions on topics of mutual interest and concern to all participants. Accordingly, a public keynote panel and plenaries addressing different aspects of Inter-Asian research were open to all participants as well as the general public. The concluding day of the conference brought all the workshops together in a public presentation and exchange of research agendas that emerged over the course of the deliberations in Dubai.

J'NTRODUCTION ": ~;..~· ~. ··~..,? ~ -..: . :~;· Consumer interest in apparel. .items made from knitted fabrics has in- .;- creased at a rapid pace during the past few years. Development of knitting machines that permit high production rate and which allow for textured effects has been partially responsible for this newly re-awakened interest in knitted outwear. Standard-Coosa-Thatcher,a leading producer of mercerized cotton yarns used for knitted constructions visualized an increasing market for their products in this area and became interested in developing mercerized yarns and technology of knitting processes that would yield a knitted product having greater dimensional stability in use than was now possible with existing pro- ducts. A research agreement was entered into with the subject corporation for the School of Textile Engineering of the Georgia Institute of Technology to make a study to more precisely define the problem and to develop improve.d methods for processing the yarn for knitting, and to devis_e innovations in existing technologies for converting the yarns into a knitted product. The project emerged from the conference stage in December of 1964 when Messrs McCarty, Lathem and Fle.ge representing Georgia.

  • Locally Produced Textiles on the Indian Ocean Periphery 1500-1850: East Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia William Gervase Clarence-Smith
    Locally produced textiles on the Indian Ocean periphery 1500-1850: East Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia William Gervase Clarence-Smith Ravi Palat and Immanuel Wallerstein claim that India 'deindustrialised' its Indian Ocean periphery, by exploiting its advanced proto-industrial techniques, especially for the production of cloth. (Pearson 1998: 109-12, 121, 126) After 1500, the picture was complicated by the violent irruption of Europeans, and yet they failed to dislodge South Asian cloth from its hegemonic position. All scholars agree on the continued market penetration of Indian cottons and silks in early modern times, although statistics hardly exist, and publications are patchy over the thousands of kilometres that separated Luzon from Arakan, and Mozambique from the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. There is a real problem in determining what the performance of peripheral textiles might have been without imports from India. (Pearson 1998: 121-2) Anthony Reid postulates a 'zero-sum game,' whereby local output fell when Indian cottons surged in, but increased when imports from India were curtailed for some exogenous reason. (Reid 1988: 96) The evidence put forward in this paper does not bear out this mechanistic model. In reality, imports from India were as much a stimulus as a threat to local industries. Complicating matters was a marked blurring of the traditional distinction between 'manufactured imports' and 'local raw materials', given that imported textiles could serve as intermediate goods. Local artisans decorated coloured cloth from abroad, printed and dyed imports of plain white cloth, and wove yarn that had been spun far away. Indeed, they even unpicked finished cloth to obtain the dyed yarn that they desired.

  • Indian Textiles in the Indian Ocean Trade in the Early Modern Period
    Indian Textiles in the Indian Ocean Trade In the Early Modern Period Om Prakash* The Indian Ocean is by far the oldest of the seas in history, in terms of it being used and traversed by humans. Intense commercial activity has been carried out in the Ocean at least over the last two millennia. Networks of trade covering different segments of the Ocean have a history of remarkable resilience without being resistant to innovation. While all kinds of commodities, including precious metals, have figured in the Indian Ocean trade, textiles both for mass as well as elite consumption have always had a very special place, both qualitatively, as well as quantitatively, in this trade. In addition to being used for wearing apparel purposes and as furnishings, textiles have also had an important function to perform in the domain of rituals, exchange of gifts, identity formation and so on. In the domain of economics, textiles often served as currency and as medium of exchange. Being probably the largest, and perhaps the most cost-competitive, producer of textiles of all varieties for centuries, India has been at the centre of Indian Ocean trade in textiles for a long period of time. Indian textiles have figured prominently both in the trade with west Asia and the Mediterranean via the Arabia Sea as well as with mainland and island southeast Asia via the Bay of Bengal.
