LAWSONE: Natural Colorant in Fashion Technology & Textile Engineering - Juniper Publishers

Image
Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Abstract Lawsone (2‐hydroxynaphthalene‐1, 4‐dione) is a natural colorant which shows significant fashionable and textile activity. Traditionally in India, mehandi is applied to hands and feet. Henna symbolizes fertility. Its use became popular in India because of its cooling effect in the hot Indian summers. Keywords:  Natural colorant; Henna; Lawsone; Fashion technology; Textile Go to Introduction Love for colour is a natural instinct. Every individual has his own choice and liking for colour and nature manifests itself during a wide spectrum of colors. Nature has always dominated over synthetic or artificial, from the beginning of this world as nature was the only option for human being then, and now with advantageous characteristics of naturally derived materials over synthetics giving them priority. Color has always played an important role in the formation of different cultures of human being all over the wor

Plasma Technology & its Impact on Next Generation Smart Textile - Juniper Publishers

Image
Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Abstract Eco-friendly plasma pretreatment can be introduced on any fabric to enhance the surface properties and adhesion of Graphene Oxide (GO) in order to fabricate electronic smart textile. Next generation fashion technology is bound to offer comfort level in all wearable cloths, be it is related to health, defense or space technology sector. Keywords:  Smart textile; Plasma technology; Graphene; Adhesion Abbreviations:  GO: Graphene Oxide; DBD: Dielectric Barrier Discharge; DLC: Diamond-Like Carbon Go to Introduction Recently the electro conductive textiles are gaining a lot of attention due to its low cost, availability, light weight, flexibility, and wearer comfort. However, conductivity is required to transfer the electrical signals to or from textile materials. The textile material which exhibits electrical conductivity is called electronic-textiles (e-textiles). Various methods are available to integra

Ramie, one of the most popular textile raw material with distinctive characteristics, produces the strongest and longest natural fiber with lustrous silky appearance. The appearance of the final treated fiber has a lot to do with the processing method used [1]. This type of fiber possesses many excellent properties such as high tensile strength, high moisture absorption, good thermal conductivity, outstanding antibacterial function and favourable air permeability [2]. However, raw Ramie is

Alum Mineral and the Importance for Textile Dyeing - Juniper Publishers

Image
Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Introduction Alum was known as one of the most imperative components of textile industry before the introduction of chemical dyes in the 1850s. Its significance could be explored when studying the alum quarrying and trade in several geographical areas [1]. In literature, interesting notes on alum as a mordant for textile dyeing of yarn, cloth and leather in North America, China, Libya, Russia and Turkey could be found. In England, for instance alum was imported mainly from Papal and Spanish mines during the 16 th  [2]. The role of alum in textile dyeing It is well known that natural dyes do not readily adhere to cotton. Therefore, in order to set the color when using natural dyes alum is needed to play its role as a chemical agent which allows a reaction to occur between the dye and the fabric [3]. It may be added to the dye source to influence it; however it does not serve as a color source on its own. The fabric is impr

The Future of Fashion Technology & Textile Engineering - Juniper Publishers

Image
Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Abstract The future of fashion technology and textile engineering will involve much more than the latest technological advances. It will require that designers and technologists also have an understanding of important social and cultural issues, increased knowledge of sustainability, and an increasing empathy for user needs. Keywords:  Design; Design and Technology; Design for the Future; Sustainability; Social and Cultural Issues Go to Introduction There was a time when what mattered most in fashion and textile design (and all design) was the aesthetic and sales potential. If the aesthetic was right it would have impact on the field, which would lead to higher sales and higher brand value. Times are changing however, for all designers. The work of designing fashion and textiles is expanding, largely due to consumer demand that stretches beyond the aesthetic and sales potential. Designers and technologists will
