A recyclable cooling fabric is provided. The recyclable cooling fabric includes a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The first surface and the second surface include a plurality of face yarns. The plurality of face yarns includes polyethylene, nylon, and recycled polyester. A plurality of inlay yarns is disposed between the first surface and the second surface. Methods of manufacturing the recyclable cooling fabric, and mattresses utilizing the recyclable cooling fabric as mattress ticking are also provided.

Disclosed herein is a knitted multi-layer fabric construction that provides the ability to cool skin to below a current temperature whether wetted or dry. The knit uses four separate yarns which collectively work together to produce enhanced cooling. Knits can include warp knit, seamless, hosiery, flat bed, spacer, and double knits. Various finishing methods may also be employed to enhance the cooling power of the fabric.

A sticky spacer fabric and its manufacturing method, the sticky spacer fabric includes a first outer layer, an intermediate layer, and a second outer layer, with the intermediate layer interposed between the first and second outer layers and interknit with them. At least one of the first and second outer layers has a sticky surface formed by thermoplastic elastic yarns knitted together, with the sticky surface being exposed partially or fully to the outside of the first or second outer layer. The sticky spacer fabric of the present invention is suitable for making clothes that closely contact the wearer’s skin and can be used to replace invisible underwear or silica gel underwear. In addition to having slip-proofness and adhesion properties, the sticky spacer fabric of the present invention also provides better breathability, heat or moisture permeability, good comfort, excellent stretch and resilience, and environmental friendliness.

The present disclosure generally relates to a knitting machine (100) for knitting a fabric by yarn plating. The knitting machine (100) comprises: a yarn feeder set (120) configured for reciprocating motion along the bed (102) and for feeding yarns (122) to the knitting needles (104), the yarn feeder set (120) comprising: a first hole (124a) for feeding a first yarn (122a) at a first angle with respect to the bed (102); a second hole (124b) for feeding a second yarn (122b) at a second angle with respect to the bed (102), the second angle greater than the first angle; and a third hole (124c) for feeding a third yarn (122c) at a third angle with respect to the bed (102), the third angle greater than the second angle, wherein knitting needles (104) form plated yarn loops comprising the third yarn (122c) interposed between the first and second yarns (122a, 122b).

A cooling fabric including a moisture-permeable inner surface layer, a spacer fabric and an outer surface layer, wherein the outer surface layer has an air permeability of at most 250 l/dm2/min at 500 Pa measured according to ISO 9237 and wherein the spacer fabric comprises monofilaments extending across the spacer fabric, wherein the monofilaments have a linear density of at least 250 dtex and wherein the monofilaments are present at a density of at most 800 monofilaments per square-inch.

A composite scaffold having a highly porous interior with increased surface area and void volume is surrounded by a flexible support structure that substantially maintains its three-dimensional shape under tension and provides mechanical reinforcement during repair or reconstruction of soft tissue while simultaneously facilitating regeneration of functional tissue.

A knitted spacer fabric has a first warp-knitted layer having wales running in a production direction and rows of stitches extending in a transverse direction, a second warp-knitted layer also having wales running in a production direction and rows of stitches extending in a transverse direction. Spacer yarns connect the knitted layers, and at least one of the knitted layers are composed of nonconductive yarns and conductive yarns. The conductive yarns are incorporated into the one knitted layer in some areas in a functional region extending in a production direction and resting on the respective knitted layer in a connection region that extends over a plurality of rows of stitches as a float stitch.

A method for forming an article of footwear includes forming a knitted component. The knitted component may include a first knitted portion and a second knitted portion, where the first knitted portion at least partially forms at least one of a medial side, a lateral side, and a toe area of the upper, and where the second knitted portion forms a tongue area of the upper. The second knitted portion may include a first end and a second end where one of the first end is secured to the first knitted portion via a common knit structure.

A compression bandage formed by a knit obtained by warp stitch technology, based on synthetic yarns which is made up of two textile surfaces whose textile structure is identical or different connected to each other by spacer yarns. Each textile surface has elastic yarns and the spacer yarn being a monofilament. The knit has a longitudinal elongation measured according to standard EN 14704-1 of between 30 and 160%. The textile surface which comes into contact with the skin has synthetic multifilament yarns, the filaments of which have a count of between 1.2 and 5 dtex and the number of filaments is between 15 and 150, and a dynamic coefficient of friction measured according to standard EN ISO 8295 greater than or equal to 0.25 and less than or equal to 1.2.
