Rolled stationary phases are fabrics (i.e., nonparticulate phases) that rapidly separate proteins from salts on the basis of size exclusion. Pore size and pore size distributions in the stationary phase determine how different size molecules distribute between the stationary and mobile phases in liquid chromatography columns. The potential for size exclusion chromatography by fabrics is not ini...

Cellulose fabrics were coated with single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by a dip-drying process. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy analyses indicate the attachment of SWCNTs. The sheet resistance of SWCNT coated fabrics can be altered by modifying the raw cellulose fabrics with low pressure argon plasma. An initial plasma ablation of up to 3 min results in the decreas...

In modern chip architectures, the increase in parallelisation brings about highly complex on-chip communication fabrics. We present WickedXmas, a tool that facilitates the design and formal verification of such interconnects. The tool is based on the language xMAS, which is a high level design language for communication fabrics, originally proposed by Intel. The use of xMAS ensures that many co...

detection scheme for solving the problem of automated defect detection for textile fabrics. In the development of the scheme, Gabor wavelet network (GWN) is deployed as the major technique to extract texture features from textile fabrics. An optimal Gabor filter is then designed on the basis of the features extracted. The proposed defect detection scheme consists of one real-valued optimal Gabo...

A new mechanical model is proposed in this paper to evaluate the shearing properties for woven fabrics during the initial slip region. Compared to the existing mechanical model for fabric shear, this model involves not only bending but also torsion of curved yarns. This model has the advantage of taking into consideration the yarn undulation in fabrics while keeping mathematical rigor. Moreover...

A simple method is presented for forming thread-like fibers from highly viscous dextran solutions. Based on the cohesive and adhesive forces between a dextran solution and the substrate to which it is applied, multiple fibers of approximately 10 μm in diameter can be elongated simultaneously. These fibers can be woven into multiple layers to produce fabrics of varying fiber orientations and mec...

Multicycle reuse of disperse dyebaths on pilot scale jet equipment was investigated in dyeing of staple and filament 100% polyester knit fabrics. Long reuse runs of single shades produced good batch-to-batch shade uniformity. Multishade reuse runs were found feasible in the forward (light-mediumdark) direction for both fabric types even though dyes were not completely common in successive shade...

Multifuntional fabrics with special wettability have attracted a lot of interest in both fundamental research and industry applications over the last two decades. In this review, recent progress of various kinds of approaches and strategies to construct super-antiwetting coating on cellulose-based substrates (fabrics and paper) has been discussed in detail. We focus on the significant applicati...

Results of dyeing of cotton fabrics with a bifunctional reactive dye were significantly improved when the fabric after bleaching with hydrogen peroxide was treated with catalase for the elimination of hydrogen peroxide residues from the fabrics. Compared to processes with a varying number of washing steps, with and without commercial reducing agents, the consumption of water could be significan...

Glass fiber reinforced gypsum composites are new building materials that have been used in covering interior walls. Reinforcement by means of woven fabrics as a three dimensional material is an alternative to the use of short fibers. The application of appropriate fabrics can improve mechanical properties of gypsum composites. The aim of this research article is to investigate the effect of the...
