Liquid Crystal Coated Yarns for Thermo-Responsive Textile Structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have developed a prototype of breathable thermochromic textile ideal for sensor applications, e.g., medical thermography. The was woven/knitted from polyester filaments pre-coated with liquid crystal (TLC) ink, in lieu coating the TLC ink on textile. This process brings us closer to achieving textiles while enhancing versatility A combination precoated yarns can be preselected according desired properties Swatches both knitted and handwoven fabrics showed excellent reversible property showing color red blue as temperature is raised 26 32 °C, consistent unincorporated ink.

Temperature Tunability of Dielectric/ Liquid Crystal / Dielectric Photonic Crystal Structures
Recently, photonic crystals doped with liquid crystal (LC) material havegained much research interest. In this article new ternary one-dimensional photoniccrystal introduced and studied. The liquid crystal layer of 5CB and 5PCH is sandwichedby two dielectric layers. For the first time, we use four structures SiO2/UCF35/CaF2,SiO2/5CB/CaF2, NFK51/UCF35/NPSK53 and NFK51/5CB/NPSK53. The effect ofte...
متن کاملDoubly thermo-responsive copolymers in ionic liquid.
We report the behaviour of thermoresponsive block copolymers of n-butyl acrylate and N-alkyl acrylamides in [C2mim][NTf2]. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) exhibits an upper critical solution temperature in [C2mim][NTf2] whereas poly(n-butyl acrylate) has a lower critical solution temperature. Consequently, these polymers exhibit double thermo-responsiveness correlated with the macromolecular struct...
متن کاملInverse creep in some textile yarns
Some exploratory work on creep and inverse creep in nylon 6 monofilament, polyester multifilament yarn and wool and cotton spun yarns has been presented. It is observed that the extent of creep and inverse creep differs from material to material and depends on the initial stress. Cotton shows minimum inverse creep while nylon shows maximum inverse creep. Wool and polyester have intermediate inv...
متن کاملProduction of Banana Fiber Yarns for Technical Textile Reinforced Composites
Natural fibers have been used as an alternative to synthetic ones for their greener character; banana fibers have the advantage of coming from an agricultural residue. Fibers have been extracted by mechanical means from banana tree pseudostems, as a strategy to valorize banana crops residues. To increase the mechanical properties of the composite, technical textiles can be used as reinforcement...
