Described herein are methods for forming e-textiles, wherein the methods include printing a particle-free conductive ink on a textile substrate, and curing the textile substrate to produce a conductive pattern thereon. The printing may include inkjet printing and may produce a printed pattern which exhibits an ink bleed of less than 0.5 mm, such as less than 0.2 mm. During printing, the textile substrate may be heated to a temperature of 30° C. to 90° C. before and during the printing process. The fabric substrate may be cured using heat and/or light to produce a conductive pattern having a sheet resistance of less than 10Ω/□, or even less than 1Ω/□.

Silk infused performance apparel and methods of preparing the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, silk performance apparel includes textiles, fabrics, consumer products, leather, and other materials that are coated with aqueous solutions of pure silk fibroin based protein fragments. In some embodiments, coated apparel products, textiles, and upholstery, as well as other materials, exhibit surprisingly improved moisture management properties, resistance to microbial growth, increased abrasion resistance, and flame resistance.

A thin, abrasion resistant supported glove, including a knitted liner and a polymeric layer disposed on and within individual strands of yarns of the knitted liner, are disclosed. Methods for manufacturing the thin, abrasion resistant supported glove are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to fibrillated lyocell fibers which have a fibrillation ratio Q of 20 or more and whose content of microfibers with a fineness of less than 14 mesh and a diameter of less than 2 μm is at least 50%, as well as the use thereof for producing a wipe, which contains cellulosic fibers and 5 to 20 wt. % of fibrillated lyocell fibers.

This invention relates to an aqueous thermosetting urethane compound for yarn coating and a method of manufacturing coated yarn using the same, wherein the compound for yarn coating includes an aqueous thermosetting urethane resin and has pores, and specifically includes 100 parts by weight of an aqueous thermosetting urethane resin, 1.5 to 2.5 parts by weight of a thickener, and 6 to 12 parts by weight of a processing lubricant. Particularly, this invention relates to an aqueous thermosetting urethane compound for yarn coating, having pores formed using a foam mixer or a chemical foaming agent, and to a method of manufacturing coated yarn by coating the surface of yarn with the aqueous thermosetting urethane compound.

Provided is a cushion for an aircraft seat including at least one antimicrobially active pad made of at least one plastic material, the pad having at least two antimicrobially active substances contained therein. The antimicrobially active substances do not contain silver or silver ions, and at least one antimicrobially active flame retardant fabric covering side at least one pad.

This invention relates to a functional textile manufacturing system. This system uses weaving equipment, dyeing and finishing equipment, shaping equipment, evaporation equipment, lamination equipment, roll adhesion equipment and printing equipment for production. Weaving equipment, dyeing and finishing equipment and shaping equipment are used for weaving, dyeing, washing and shaping to process low-cost polyester fibers into shaped fabric. Then, the evaporation equipment is used to evaporate a metal onto a plane release film to form a metal evaporation release film, and the lamination equipment, roll adhesion equipment and printing equipment are used to laminate the shaped fabric and the metal evaporation release film and to adhere a printed layer on the functional thin film. Such a manufacturing system can produce laundry resistant unconventional material antimicrobial protective fabric that features special temperature control, antimicrobial, waterproof, breathable, scratch resistant properties, as well as comfortable feeling.

Films, fibers, filaments, yarns and textiles including thermoplastic elastomeric compositions are described, as are methods of making the films, fibers, filaments, yarns and textiles. These films, fibers, filaments, yarns and textiles can be used to make articles of apparel, footwear, and sporting equipment. When thermoformed, the thermoplastic elastomeric compositions can impart abrasion resistance, traction, and other advantageous properties to the articles. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present disclosure.
