In June, PRINTING United announced the decision to transition from an in-person event in Atlanta, to a comprehensive digital platform. The PRINTING United Digital Experience, taking place Oct. 26 – Nov. 12, offers attendees three weeks of live, guided programming, educational sessions, and panel discussions with the experts; along with access to a complete online exhibitor showcase featuring information about the newest industry technology, case studies, whitepapers, the chance to speak with exhibitor representatives, and more. Today is Day Five of this 14-day event. Focused on the graphics and wide-format market — specifically wide-format finishing and workflow — attendees have a packed schedule of content and product demos (see the detailed agenda on page 4). This year has been a difficult for the wide-format and graphics market. According to the COVID-19 Print Business Indicators Report, October 2020, from NAPCO Research and the PRINTING United Alliance, there have been deep, wide-spread declines during the first half of 2020. Sales fell an average of 20.4% across the industry during the first six months of 2020 compared with the first half of 2019. Key parts of some businesses simply dried up — such as trade shows — while others had clients that simply could not survive and closed permanently. -

Processing Problems of Polyester and Its Remedies
International Journal of Engineering Research & Technology (IJERT) ISSN: 2278-0181 Vol. 1 Issue 7, September - 2012 Processing Problems Of Polyester And Its Remedies Dr.Chinta S.K*. and Rajesh Kumar singh D.K.T.E.S Textile and Engineering Institute, Ichalakaranji. ABSTRACT Polyester is predominantly used synthetic fiber in textile fiber industry since 1950. Today there are varieties of commercial forms of polyester available in market viz. Texturized polyester, Bright polyester, Dull polyester, Cationic dyeable polyester, Cot look polyester, Microfiber polyester, Air punched polyester, Staple fiber polyester & its blends. The extensive use of polyester in textile industry & High rate of growth of polyester fibers is due to their outstanding physical properties, resistance to moth, mildew and microorganism, ease of handle, easy to dye & easy to care during use. Also they can be successfully blended with cotton with various proportions either in fiber form or yarn in fabric form. It has high durability compared to other fibers used in apparel industry. In spite of its outstanding performance, there are some shortcomings in polyester fabric & its blends for example: Hydrophobic nature, ease of soiling, static charge builds up, Tendency to pill, some problems may occur due to improper processing sequence such as Shrinkage, due to improper heat setting dyeability varies, colour fading in checks & strip fabrics. Therefore it is necessary to analyze different physical & chemical properties of polyester available in varies commercial forms, so we can understand reasons for problems occurring in its wet processing & to eliminate this problems. INTRODUCTION Polyester is a synthetic fiber derived from coal, air, water, and petroleum. -
Chemistry & Technology of Fabric Preparation & Finishing
Chemistry & Technology of Fabric Preparation & Finishing by Dr. Charles Tomasino Department of Textile Engineering, Chemistry & Science College of Textiles North Carolina State University Raleigh, North Carolina CHEMISTRY & TECHNOLOGY OF FABRIC PREPARATION & FINISHING BY DR.

Copyright © 1992 by Charles Tomasino No part of this book may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording, or by any information storage and retrieval system, without permission in writing from the author PREFACE Global competition has caused the US textile industry to modernize and become cost competitive because developing nations have discovered that exporting textile products to the USA is an attractive way to enhance their economic growth. Their low labor costs have pressured domestic producers into replacing labor intensive manufacturing equipment with automated, sophisticated, efficient, high- technology machinery. The industry has focused on reducing costs, improving quality and developing quick turnaround and response scenarios. These forces have impacted the number and quality of the technical work force. Graduates with a background in computers and information management are making up a larger portion of the entry-level technical staff. Process engineers dedicated to improving quality and efficiency make up the rest. Most of the entry level work force has little or no exposure to textile education or training, they have to rely on experienced technologists to guide and train them. Unfortunately as the older technologists retire, they take with them valuable technical knowledge and know-how leaving the skeletal remains technically unsupported. -

ABSTRACT POLSTON, KATHERINE P. Capabilities and Limitations of Print-on-Demand Inkjet Digital Textile Printing and the American Craft Niche Market. (Under the direction of Dr. Lisa Parrillo-Chapman). The objective of this research is to determine the capabilities and limitations of print- on-demand inkjet digital textile printing as perceived by niche market users. The research questions are (1) To determine the capabilities and limitations of inkjet digitally printed textiles as measured by the opinions of a group of users; (2) To determine if there is a difference in perceived capabilities and limitations of inkjet digitally printed textiles per niche market users. Users of a print-on-demand inkjet digital textile print bureau were surveyed using a quantitative survey instrument. User demographic data was collected, as well as aspects concerning the capabilities and limitations of print-on-demand inkjet digitally printed textiles. The aspects measured are; Color Control, Time Needed for designs, Turn- around Time for Order, Fabric Choices, Quality of Print, Quality of Fabric, Printable Fabric Width, User Skill Level in Computer Aided Design Software, User Skill Level in Color Control and User Skill Level in Creating Repeat Patterns. Users self-identified themselves as one of four niche market user groups; Crafters, Designers, Artist/Artisan and Small Business Owners/Entrepreneurs. Results indicate that there are no perceived limitations aside from User Skill Levels. User Skill Levels were predominantly below average and differed significantly -
Fibre Blends with Elastane
FibreFibre blendsblends withwith elastaneelastane Recommendations for pretreatment and dyeing PrecautionsPrecautions ! Long term storage of fabrics should be avoided - if unavoidable seal in airtight, opaque plastic foil ( to protect from degrading oxides of nitrogen, and sunlight) ! High amounts of silicone oils and other lubricants are used in spinning and winding ! During weaving and knitting further oils and auxiliaries are applied to ensure good running properties. ! Degradation of these products can lead to yellowing or loss of elasticity. ! ‘Cold setting’ can cause permanent crease marks. Circular knits are best slit on knitting machine and rolled open width. ProcessingProcessing Elastanes are knitted/woven under tension which : ! allows “jamming” or compaction of the fabric. ! “buckles” the hard fibre in “jammed” fabric. The fabric should be relaxed prior to heat-setting to avoid rope marks and puckering during dyeing, and ensure good dimensional stability in the final garment. RELAXATIONRELAXATION 11 The process of “settling” the tension in the fabric, to allow full development of the elasticity. The fabric will become fully “jammed”. RelaxationRelaxation == HotHot ++ WetWet ! Benefits of Relaxation ! Reduces potential distortion or deformation of the fabric from residual uneven tension. (e.g. : slits, islands, uneven puckering ) ! Pre-shrinks the goods ready for correct setting. ! Develops full “power” and recovery. ! Required for Desizing woven goods before Heat Set. Relaxation before long storage is preferred. RELAXATIONRELAXATION 22 Relaxation Methods for Elastanes ! Steaming ! Steam Table or Steam Frame in front of Stenter ( Steaming and drying in a stenter should be a separate step before Heat Setting. ) !

Air Emissions from Carpet Manufacturing Processes
Air Emissions from Carpet Manufacturing Processes James A. Mulholland, Melanie C. Pitrolo, Ravindra Bissram, and Srikanth Patury Environmental Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology 200 Bobby Dodd Way Atlanta GA 30332-0512 [email protected] and Charlene W. Bayer and Robert J. Hendry Georgia Tech Research Institute To better characterize stack emissions from carpet manufacturing processes, volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions were measured and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) were identified for four processes: suessen heatsetting, beck dyeing, continuous dyeing, and latex coating. The study included field and laboratory investigations performed during the 1996-99 time period. In nylon 6 fiber heatsetting, caprolactam is the major VOC emitted, released at a rate of 400 mg per pound of fiber. For nylon 66 fiber heatsetting, on the other hand, VOC emissions are predominantly long-chain acids and esters found in yarn spinning lubricant. Total VOC emissions ranged from 240 to 600 mg per pound of fiber processed. Total VOC emissions from beck dyeing ranged from 500 to 1000 mg/yd2 carpet; for continuous dyeing, the VOC emission estimate ranged from 100 to 200 mg/yd2 carpet. VOC emissions included long-chain hydrocarbons at plants using powder dyes, and glycol ethers and other oxygenated compounds at plants using liquid dyes. Alkyl benzenes from stainblock application were also observed. Laboratory results demonstrate that water-soluble VOCs partition between gas and water effluents. Pure hydrocarbon auxiliary compounds present in the dye applications, on the other hand, were entirely released to the stack gas. VOC emission factors for styrene-butadiene latex coating were estimated to range from 150 to 280 mg/yd2. -
Processing Route of Jersey Knit in Lenzing Viscose With
PROCESSING ROUTE OF JERSEY KNIT IN LENZING VISCOSE® WITH ELASTANE DYEING / FINISHING PROCESSING GUIDELINES DYEING / FINISHING Recommendation for the finishing of Jersey knits in Lenzing Viscose®, with and without elastane. 1. Processing route 1.1a. Open the tube (Blends with elastane (1:1) Once the knitting procedure is complete, immediately cut the fabrics, and roll at open width to avoid permanent creases of the centre fold line. 1.1b. 100% Lenzing Viscose and blends with Elastane (2 cellulose : 1 elastane) In opposite to Jersey knits made of 100% and blends with elastane with construction 2 courses Viscose yarn and 1 course elastane filament will stay in tubular because the Elastane filaments cannot be fused whilst the heatsetting process. Fusing is only possible by 1:1 1.2. Preparing the lot: Only process fabrics from one and the same knitting batch. 1.3. Evaluation of the dimension stability in advance: As a first step it is important to determine the dimensional stability the 100% greige fabric. This can best be done by drawing a shrinkage square on the fabric or by accurately measuring the greige width before washing a cutting of the fabric at 90°C with subsequent tumble drying. The shrinkage values obtained here can be subsequently used to set the correct width and overfeed at the drying and finishing stages. Depending on the structure of the fabric, the final finished width should only be approx. 5% greater than the value obtained from the shrinkage test. 1.4. Heat-setting: (see also 1.1b.) Padding the Viscose fabric at the heat-setting step should be the first relaxing step for the fabric to achieve the best possible shrinkage for the final product.
