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 ...

Utilising plant‐derived dyes for designed changeability in textiles
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 ...

Development and application of micromechanical techniques for characterising interfacial shear strength in fibre-thermoplastic composites [PDF]
The development of single fibre pull-out and microbond tests for characterising interfacial strength in thermoplastic composites is reviewed in detail. Manufacture of an experimental jig and sample preparation regimes for both tests are described.
