One-pot multi-functional finishing of wool fabric using reactive nonionic softener
Heliyon, 2022 Crossbred wool is widely used in the textile and clothing fields. Nevertheless, the surface roughness of crossbred wool fabric is higher than that of Merino wool. Herein we propose a reactive nonionic softener (RNS) based on fatty acid (FA) and 2-amino-2-

Electrostrictive microelectromechanical fibres and textiles [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 AbstractMicroelectromechanical systems (MEMS) enable many modern-day technologies, including actuators, motion sensors, drug delivery systems, projection displays, etc. Currently, MEMS fabrication techniques are primarily based on silicon micromachining processes, resulting in rigid and low aspect ratio structures.

Formation of Polymers in Textile Fibres [PDF]
Nature, 1946 WHEN wool fibres are exposed to the vapour of ethylene sulphide and water at 50° C., polymerization takes place within the fibres, their elastic properties are modified, and felting is prevented during subsequent working in soap solution1. Similar reactions take place with other monomeric vinylidene compounds, such as methyl methacrylate, if the fibres
