Suitability of lyocell fiber for pillow fillings [PDF]

Textile Research Journal, 2018
The choice of a comfortable pillow is essential for good sleep. The filling material for pillows should be bulky, resilient and comfortable. For reasons of price, availability and resilience, polyester is the most commonly used filling material. Its drawbacks, however, lie in poor moisture management and a lack of biodegradability.

Sustainable Development and Value Co‐Creation in International Business‐to‐Business Contexts: An Empirical Analysis in the Nonwoven Industry

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regulations and the collective influence of the value chain compel business‐to‐business (B2B) actors within the nonwoven (NW) manufacturing industry to drive sustainable development. However, the literature rarely addresses how B2B actors aim to align with sustainable development to co‐create value and what challenges they face.

Comparative evaluation of reactive dye structures on colour strength enhancement in caustic‐treated regenerated bamboo fabrics

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Regenerated bamboo fibres offer a sustainable alternative to conventional cellulosic materials; however, achieving high and reproducible colour strength with reactive dyes may depend on both fibre accessibility and dye molecular architecture.

Acid Sulfite Pulping of Hemp: Effects of Processing Conditions on Lyocell Pulp Quality

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 16, Page 3364-3381, 15 August 2026.
Industrial hemp is emerging as a promising renewable source for next‐generation textile fibers. This study evaluates whether acid sulfite pulping can produce hemp‐based dissolving pulp suitable for lyocell manufacturing. While the process is historically linked to increased cellulose accessibility, it did not achieve the low lignin content and ...
