A subsarcolemmal tubular system network (SSTN) has been detected in skeletal muscle fibers by confocal imaging after the removal of the sarcolemma. Here we confirm the existence and resolve the fine architecture and the localization of the SSTN at an unprecedented level of detail by examining extracellularly applied tubular system markers in skeletal muscle fiber preparations with a combination...

With the continuous changes taken place in people’s lifestyles, functional underwear has drawn attention from more consumer groups. Skincare, comfortable knitted fabrics can be made by adding refined avocado oil into viscose to yield fibers and then blending it with other such as acrylic wormwood fiber. This article first introduces moisture-retaining principles, raw material selection, skincar...

The accumulation and disposal of polymer wastes including waste plastics, waste rubber, waste synthetic fibers and waste composites is a worldwide concern. Until now, there are many technical barriers in recycling polymer wastes with crosslinked structure, such as vulcanized rubber, crosslinked polyolefine and other thermoset materials. In this study, a mechanochemical approach was used to cond...

Non-destructive observations of cross-sectional shapes acrylic single fibers using X-ray computed tomography (CT) were performed. A commercial CT apparatus (Rigaku nano3DX) was employed because its micrometer-scale spatial resolution and remarkable image contrast for soft matter. We assessed two types sample support, a paraffin strip nylon string, fiber samples in terms easy handling recovery. ...

Fibers were electrospun from a solution comprised of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes, in efforts to achieve highly confined macromolecular packaging. A stoichiometric ratio of poly(allylamine hydrochloride) and poly(acrylic acid) solution was mixed in an ethanol-water co-solvent. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis of electrospun fibers demonstrated no indication of glass trans...
