Toward Circular Textile Waste Management in Macaronesia: A Comparative Policy and Infrastructure Analysis

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 2, Winter 2025.
ABSTRACT The increasing volume of textile waste in Europe presents a critical environmental and economic challenge, particularly in isolated regions such as the Canary Islands and the broader Macaronesian region. This study presents a comprehensive review of textile waste generation, legislation, and management strategies across Europe, with a special ...

Innovative elastomeric yarns obtained from poly(ether-ester) staple fiber and its blends with other fibers by ring and compact spinning: Fabrication and mechanical properties

AUTEX Research Journal
To develop distinctive elastic fabrics, it is essential to produce new elastomeric yarns that differ from conventional elastane filaments. The elastomeric staple yarns examined in this study are composed of poly(ether-ester), or PEE, featuring a chemical

Utilising plant‐derived dyes for designed changeability in textiles

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 6, Page 828-842, December 2025.
Abstract Natural plant extracts have been used for dyeing textiles since prehistoric times. With the discovery of synthetic dyes in 1856, the consumption of natural dyes declined sharply. However, the current focus on closed‐loop systems, the circular economy and the promotion of sustainable industries aimed at reducing environmental impact (eg, The ...

The Effects of Jacquard Woven Fabric Constructional Parameters and Elastane Yarn on Bending Rigidity

Journal of Engineered Fibers and Fabrics, 2015
In this research, the bending property of jacquard woven fabrics and the effects of weft density, weft yarn count, weave, and Lycra inclusion in weft yarn on this property were investigated. Viscose filament warp yarn and polyester and polyester/Lycra weft yarns were used for weaving fabrics, and 4/1 and 7/1 satin weaves with the same jacquard design ...

Crossbow impact effect on clothing and potential associated injuries

Journal of Forensic Sciences, Volume 70, Issue 4, Page 1544-1557, July 2025.
Abstract There has been an increase in crossbow use for hunting practices, sport target shooting, and criminal activity. In the UK, there is minimal legislation surrounding the crossbow. UK law states individuals must be over 18 to buy or possess a crossbow. To date, little experimental research has been conducted, with most of the research focusing on

Influence of structural and process parameters on mechanical behaviour of elastane yarns

, 2012
In this work, the influence of various structural and process parameters (such as linear density of core and cover and draw ratio) on the mechanical behaviour of elastane yarn has been thoroughly investigated. According to the experimental results, elastane yarns with high linear density core and cover and produced using higher draw ratio showed the ...

Development of core-spun based conductive helical auxetic yarn for enhanced protective textiles

Journal of Engineered Fibers and Fabrics
Protective workwear calls for improved energy absorption that auxetic structures can answer. However, generating static charges through frictional contact remained a significant hurdle as textiles had high electrical resistance.

Modification of ring spinning machine for producing core yarn containing elastane [Ri·ng i·pli·k egi·rme maki·nesi·nin elastan i·çeri·kli· özlü (kor) i·pli·k üretmek üzere modi·fi·kasyonu]

, 2019
In recent years, different types of yarns are produced by using flexible machines which is modernized with imported technology in our country. In this study, a modification of a conventional ring spinning is explained for producing core-spun yarns which contain elastane.
