Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure provide a system, apparatus, and methods for producing a high-performance camouflage and thermal management composite fabric textile systems. The systems comprise woven and non-woven composite fabrics consisting of layers for thermal and electromagnetic wave propagation as well as human thermal emission control. The systems incorporate thermal plastic insulation, felt insulation, electromagnetic wave absorption materials, electromagnetic wave propagation and thermal emission control elements, and camouflage pigment patterns. Dots containing encapsulated metallic particulates enable omni-spectral electromagnetic wave and thermal radiation signature manipulation and control as well as cost-effective manufacturing. Single blended textile processed via needle punching produces hair/fur-like protrusions made from a multilayer fabric composition having EM wave and thermal radiation control elements. The protrusions subsequently contain EM propagation and thermal emission control elements on their surfaces for omni-spectral camouflage and detection mitigation. The systems expand the options for meeting the demands of today and future stealth missions.

Described herein are compositions useful for infusing color into nonwoven polyester containing product and methods to do so. Such compositions and methods comprise use of a color infusion composition comprising an antimigrant polymer; pigment; ammonium polyphosphate; and an anionic surfactant comprising phosphate. In certain embodiments, thermoplastic polymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 93.0° C. or less is used to enhance color infusion.

The pretreatment liquid of the present invention is applicable for a fabric to be used for inkjet textile printing, and the pretreatment liquid contains a block copolymer including a hydrophobic block derived from a hydrophobic resin having an SP value of less than 11 and a hydrophilic block derived from a hydrophilic resin having an SP value of 11 or more, with the difference between the SP values of the hydrophobic resin and the hydrophilic resin of 1.0 or more; and water.

The present disclosure is directed to insect-resistant fabrics or garments and methods for making the same. The insect-resistant fabrics or garments include an insect repelling composition containing a micellar system and optionally an insecticide composition. As an example, an insect-resistant fabric in accordance with the disclosure can include a base fabric (e.g., polyester) having been treated to include an insect repellant composition containing a micellar system. The micellar system may include one or more insect repelling agents (e.g., essential oils) contained within one or more micelles (e.g., saponins) in a first region of the fabric, and optionally an insecticide (e.g., permethrin) in second region of the base fabric. The inclusion of a micellar system in an insect repellant composition is shown herein to provide improved insect-resistant efficacy. Additionally, certain insect-resistant fabrics disclosed herein can also demonstrate durability when exposed to wear such as laundering the garment.

A resin structure that includes a plurality of piezoelectric fibers that generate a charge by application of external energy; and an insulating resin coating at least one of the plurality of piezoelectric fibers.
