“…Filament yarn can be produced easily as compared to spun yarn, which undergoes different operations to be made from the staple fibers. e quality and type of yarn has an impact on product quality, performance, and cost [16][17][18]. e second step is to obtain a fabric that is a plane-like structure produced from the yarns or fibers directly.…”

Textiles have been used for clothing purposes since ancient times. However, due to their functional properties, their importance-as well as their use in various elds such as ltration, protective clothing, and medical applications-increased over time. Properties of the textile fabrics depend mostly on the ber type, fabrication technique, and structure. Moreover, fabric porosity is one of the properties that provide comfort, increased thermal insulation, and ltration capability to the end products.e porous structure of woven, knitted, and nonwoven fabrics has been used for many years to get the desired porosity. Usually, macroporous structures are achieved using these types of textiles. Electrospinning is used to produce nanoporous textile brous web, but its poor mechanical properties and low production rate limit its use. Aerogels are solid materials with ultrahigh porosity at the nanoscale with low density and good thermal insulation properties, due to which they are considered potential insulation materials today. On the other hand, pure aerogels are sometimes brittle and have poor mechanical properties. us, they cannot be directly used in various applications. Consequently, textile reinforced aerogel composites have been developed, which could provide exibility and strength to aerogels and impart nanoporous structure to textiles. is review summarizes conventional techniques to produce the porous structure in textiles followed by the modern techniques to develop a nanoporous structure. Further, di erent mechanisms to synthesize textile reinforced aerogel composites are discussed to get a nanoporous structure for ltration and thermal insulation applications. e porosity, mechanical properties, and thermal insulation of textile reinforced aerogel composites are also highlighted. In the end, we give a conclusion that not only summarizes the literature, but also includes recommendations for the researchers.

“…Apart from the available compact spinning systems which considerably reduce yarn hairiness by eliminating the spinning triangle during yarn formation, many researchers have made efforts to reduce hairiness of cotton yarns by modifications to conventional spinning machines. Mirzaei et al [95] suggested a new and simple method for reduction of yarn hairiness by attaching an air-suction system to the web-detaching zone of a conventional carding machine immediately behind the crushing rollers. The ringspun yarn produced using this system was called vacuum-cleaned carded yarn and showed a 20% improvement in yarn hairiness along with improvement in yarn evenness, tenacity and elongation at break.…”

Cotton in the new millennium: advances, economics, perceptions and problems

Cotton is the most significant natural fibre and has been a preferred choice of the textile industry and consumers since the industrial revolution began. The share of man-made fibres, both regenerated and synthetic fibres, has grown considerably in recent times but cotton production has also been on the rise and accounts for about half of the fibres used for apparel and textile goods. To cotton's advantage, the premium attached to the presence of cotton fibre and the general positive consumer perception is well established, however, compared to commodity manmade fibres and high performance fibres, cotton has limitations in terms of its mechanical properties but can help to overcome moisture management issues that arise with performance apparel during active wear. This issue of Textile Progress aims to: i. Report on advances in cotton cultivation and processing as well as improvements to conventional cotton cultivation and ginning. The processing of cotton in the textile industry from fibre to finished fabric, cotton and its blends, and their applications in technical textiles are also covered. ii. Explore the economic impact of cotton in different parts of the world including an overview of global cotton trade. iii. Examine the environmental perception of cotton fibre and efforts in organic and genetically-modified (GM) cotton production. The topic of naturally-coloured cotton, post-consumer waste is covered and the environmental impacts of cotton cultivation and processing are discussed. Hazardous effects of cultivation, such as the extensive use of pesticides, insecticides and irrigation with fresh water, and consequences of the use of GM cotton and cotton fibres in general on the climate are summarised and the effects of cotton processing on workers are addressed. The potential hazards during cotton cultivation, processing and use are also included. iv. Examine how the properties of cotton textiles can be enhanced, for example, by improving wrinkle recovery and reducing the flammability of cotton fibre.

“…Mirzaei et al proposed a modification to carding to remove short fibers from the surface of the carding web. 66 Special perforated suction rollers were installed on a carding machine after the doffer for removal of short fibers. The yarns made from this system are called VCC (vacuum clean carded) yarns and exhibited significant improvements in quality over conventional carded yarns especially in terms of hairiness.…”

Hairiness is an important quality parameter of spun yarns. It not only affects the quality of yarns, but also the weaving and knitting performance of yarns as well as the quality of the resultant fabrics. Various developments regarding yarn hairiness have been reported in the last decade. These cover aspects such as hairiness measurement, modeling, simulation, spinning modifications and post spinning treatments to reduce hairiness. This study is an attempt to critically review all significant recent developments regarding yarn hairiness. Further possibilities of research and future work are also briefly discussed.
