This is one of the main reasons to avoid their use in the fabrication of radiating elements of the antenna. Their extremely low value, the development of industrial technologies, as well as the need to design and build antennas on textile materials (embedded in clothing) are the main prerequisites for the ever-expanding use of textile materials (TM) for the fabrication of substrates of wearable antennas. Withal, many questions arise regarding technological factors affecting the effectiveness of textile materials application for antenna fabrication. Today, a number of new textile materials are very intensively developed. The subject of this work is the technological peculiarities of the fabrication of wearable antennas from a new TM registered with an invention patent in recent years.

In this research, a type of bamboo charcoal polyester (BC-PET)/antibacterial nylon(AN)/stainless steel wire (SSW) metal composite yarn was prepared with a hollow spindle spinning machine, which using the SSW as the core material, the BC-PET and AN as the outer and inner wrapped yarns, respectively. The wrapping numbers was set at 8.0turns/cm for the produced metal composite yarns. Furthermore, a type of plated knitted fabric was designed and produced by using the automatic jacquard knitting machine. The plated knitted fabric presents the BC-PET/AN/SSW metal composite yarn on the knitted fabric face and the crisscross-section polyester (CSP) on the knit back. The effect of lamination numbers and angles on the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) were discussed in this study. EMSE measurement showed that the lamination angles will influence the EMSE, but not affect the air permeability.

As a typical natural fiber, ramie is an increasingly popular because of its excellent properties including a high tensile strength, excellent thermal conductivity, coolness, ventilation function, moisture absorption, and antibacterial function. However, ramie fiber and ramie fabric have some disadvantages such as poor elasticity, low wrinkle recovery, low resilience, itchiness, harsh handle, which decreases the competitiveness of ramie fabric in the high-grade garment-fabric market. It is necessary to use the advanced technologies in the dyeing and finishing for enhancing the competitiveness of ramie fabric. This study is aimed to study the natural dyeing and functional finishing of ramie fabric. At present, ramie fabrics are mostly dyed with synthetic colorants which can give rise to serious environmental pollution and potential harm to mankind health.

Natural and synthetic fibers are mostly used in sports apparels. Natural fibers have excellent comfort, except wicking, which can be overcome by modifying the fiber profile of synthetic materials, and also imparting finishes in the fabric. It is evident that type of fibre, properties of yarn, structure of fabric, finishing treatment and features of clothing were the factors affecting clothing comfort of sports intimate apparels. Among these the economical way of fetching comfort in the sports intimate apparels can be done through the selection of right raw material, and fabric structure with right structural parameters. Keywords: Comfort properties, Knitted fabrics, Plaiting, Loop length, GSM.

The knitted fabrics are used in development of moisture management products than other fabrics. In this study the single jersey fabrics are produced with bi-materials such as polyester/cotton, polypropylene/cotton and nylon/cotton. The cotton leed yarn feed, synthetic leed yarn feed, combined yarn feed and plated feed techniques were adopted for the production of plain jersey fabrics. The rate of water absorption (percentage area/second) of the produced fabrics has studied using Adobe Photoshop CS-2. The influence of feeding techniques on absorption rate of jersey fabrics was studied. Based on result and statistical analysis, it reveals the absorption rate of the various bi-material knitted fabrics has significant difference with respect to yarn feeds and variation of time periods.

  • Design and Development of Textile Electrodes for EEG Measurement Using Copper Plated Polyester Fabrics N
    Volume 8, Issue 4, Spring2014 Design and Development of Textile Electrodes for EEG Measurement using Copper Plated Polyester Fabrics N. Muthu Kumar and G. Thilagavathi Department of Textile Technology PSG College of Technology India ABSTRACT Electrically conductive polyester fabrics are investigated in this work in order to develop textile electrodes for Eelectroencephalogram (EEG) measurement. Electrically conductive polyester fabrics have been prepared by electroless copper plating method. These fabrics are then characterized by SEM and XRD. The electrical conductivity of the fabric samples is also studied. The structural studies show that the crystalline region of fabric structure is not affected by the plating. The SEM studies reveal a very uniform deposition of copper on the fabrics. The conductivity studies show that the treated fabrics have good electrical conductivity. The developed copper plated fabric was used to develop the textile electrodes for Eelectroencephalogram (EEG) measurement. The acquired signals were compared with commercially available electrodes and the signals were found to be similar. The good measurement performance exhibited by the textile electrodes indicates that they are feasible candidates for EEG recording, opening the door for long-term EEG monitoring applications.

  • Development of Textile Conductive Fabric by Copper Metal Coating Approach for E-Textile Applications Z
    DEVELOPMENT OF TEXTILE CONDUCTIVE FABRIC BY COPPER METAL COATING APPROACH FOR E-TEXTILE APPLICATIONS Z. Hassan*a, O. Atalayb, F. Kalaoglub Abstract This work aims to manufacture the conductive fabric through the copper metal coating approach and to investigate the effect of fabric type on the conductivity of the selected types. We also explored increased in weight, and increased in thickness on the coated samples as well as effect of washing cycles and abrasion on the electrical conductivity of the samples. The electroless plating was chosen to fulfil this aim since the process allows the coating of non-conductive textile materials and it is relatively cheaper compared to other available options. We selected two different fabrics (polyamide and knitted cotton) to conduct the study. Having coated structures with copper, we performed such tests including abrasion, weight increased percentage, thickness, washing cycles, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX). The results revealed that while knitted cotton fabric showed conductive properties, polyamide fabric was non-conductive because of its dense and hydrophobic structure properties, thus the knitted cotton fabric can be considered suitable candidate for e-Textile applications. Keywords Cotton fabric, Elastomeric Polyamide, Conductivity, SEM, Electroless plating 1. Introduction Wearable electronic systems are receiving significant attention recently because of the usage in human body motion monitoring1, medical diagnosis2, training in sports3 or other entertainment purposes so that the investment in this area is increasing. Wearable electronics is also an improving area for future clothing. As technology is growing that fast, new devices and numerous functions for textile products are inevitable.
