A wearable quantum treatment device embodied in a garment made in such ways as making a conductive fabric into a garment for a human body; sewing a common fabric with quantum energy generating coils; sewing a fabric of a conductive film with quantum energy generating coils; winding a metal wire into quantum energy generating coils and attaching the same to a fabric, such that a power supply unit disposed at one side of a lower portion of the front or the back of a garment supplies a variable DC or AC power in a form of pulsed electromagnetic field to the quantum energy generating coils, whereby pulsed electromagnetic fields are generated in directions opposite to each other, thereby overlapping and dissipating each other so as to create and irradiate quantum energy in a state of zero strength electromagnetic field to a human body, thus eventually improving health and treating diseases.

A dye fixing section in a foam indigo dyeing machine for dyeing traveling sheets of textile yarn. The dye fixing section receives traveling sheets of yarn to which indigo dye in leuco form has been applied and penetrated partially through the yarn. Oxygen is applied to the substrate to set the dye at the level of penetration achieved as it enters the dye fixing section, to produce yarns in the sheet with outer dyed rings and undyed cores.

A ball-shaped light heat generating fiber aggregate and a method for producing the same include a light heat generating material that is sprayed and applied to any one filament or a mixture of two or more filaments selected from the group consisting of a polyamide-based filament, a polyester-based filament, and a polypropylene-based filament, opening and mixing the same to separate the filaments, and producing a ball-shaped fiber aggregate.

Processes and apparatus are disclosed which substantially eliminate the formation of oxidized indigo dye before and during dye application onto a natural fiber yarn or fabric while allowing the leuco-indigo dye molecule to diffuse fully into the natural fibers of the yarn where it can fix to the fibers prior to oxidation (i.e., exposure of the leuco-dyed yarns to oxygen). Indigo dyed textile products (e.g., dyed cotton yarns that may be twill woven to form a denim fabric) exhibit exceptionally high colorfastness as determined by the AATCC Crock Test.

Techniques produce electrostatically charged fibres, and in particular produce an electret fibre construct, where fibres are produced from a plastics and/or natural-origin material, where a polar liquid is atomized using a gaseous pressure medium to produce a treatment aerosol and where the fibres are treated with the treatment aerosol for electrostatic charging, wherein the atomizing is undertaken with a quotient of the volume flow of the polar liquid in litres per second and the positive pressure of the gaseous pressure medium in hectopascals of 0.004 to 0.008.

Aspects herein are directed to an article of apparel having a vent opening formed by overlapping the edges of a first panel and a second panel. A plurality of discrete overlay film structures are applied to the second panel adjacent to the vent opening. When the article of apparel is exposed to an external stimulus, the film structures undergo a reversible increase in dimension in at least the z-direction which cause the second panel of material to undergo a reversible decrease in dimension in the direction of a longitudinal axis of the vent opening thereby causing the vent opening to dynamically transition from a closed state to an open state.

Processes and apparatus for dyeing a textile product are provided whereby an undyed textile product is introduced into a substantially anaerobic dyeing chamber having an oxygen content of less than 1000 ppm oxygen therein, and at least two dye mixtures having a differential dye exhaustion rate of at least 10% are applied onto the textile product within the substantially anaerobic dying chamber. Thereafter the dyed textile product may be exposed to an oxygen-containing atmosphere so as to oxidize the applied dyes. At least one of the dyes may have a dye exhaustion rate of at least about 25%, or even at least about 50%. The embodiments herein are especially adapted to dyeing of textile products whereby one dye in the at least two dye mixtures is a sulfur dye and another dye in the at least two dye mixtures is a leuco indigo dye.
