Development trend

The manufacture, properties and applications of heat-storage and thermo-regulated textiles have been extensively studied since the 1980s but their future development is still not very clear. It is expected that similar importance will be attached to improving comfort to the wearer as was seen in the development of breathable membranes (Gore-Tex, Sympatex). These textiles were selected as one of the 21 inventions that will shape the 21st century by the editorial staff of Newsday. 

The thermo-regulated properties of the garment offered against extremes of cold and/or heat are available only for a limited period however, depending on the garment construction and the temperature of the environment. Thus it is more useful in an environment in which the temperature is quickly changing than in a steady temperature environment. However, if the released heat is not absorbed quickly, or the absorbed heat is not released, the textile loses its thermo-regulating function. To improve its durability, there is still much to be done. 

The maximum PCM load in the heat-storage and thermo-regulated polyacrylic fibre is 10%. In other words, the maximum heat content of the fibre is 25 J/g. The thermo-regulating function offered against extremes of cold and/or heat is available only for a limited period. The maximum heat content of the fabric is over 40J/g in patent application and heat content over 50J/g is possible in technology. The more PCMs there are in the textile, the longer the duration of temperature equalization. 

2 Combining heat-storage and thermo-regulated textiles with trapped-air materials 

The experiment results show that a thermo-regulated textile that can regulate inner temperature effectively must have enough high thermal resistance. How to combine the heat-storage and release technology with the trapped-air technology is an area for future research. 

Probably the most significant trend in soft drinks manufacture in recent years has been towards the use of non-calorific artificial sweeteners. The best known of these, saccharin, was used in soft drinks during and after the Second World War, when sugar was in short supply. Saccharin in its soluble form is about 450 times sweeter than sugar and can be a significant cost-reducer, but its sweetness is marred by a bitter taste to which many consumers are sensitive. 

In more recent years other artificial sweeteners have been developed and it is now possible to produce soft drinks with almost all the characteristics of the 

CHEMISTRY AND TECHNOLOGY OF SOFT DRINKS AND FRUIT JUICES 

Almost all soft drinks are now available in low calorie , diet or light formulations. These products have a low calorie content and are usually cheaper to manufacture than the corresponding sugar-containing products. 

Another, and perhaps more obvious, development area is the constant search for new flavours and unusual ingredients. There is currently a great interest in the use of various botanical extracts such as guarana and ginseng because of their implied qualities, but it is noteworthy that one of the oldest and certainly the most successful flavours, cola, was originally formulated with, and still contains, a natural vegetable extract of cola nut. 

Owing to the required reverse movement of the iaying needle bars, stripes of pure multiaxial fabric occur. Their width is equal to the width of the traverse movement. Hence, the usabie fabric width is reduced because the areas on the edge of the fabric can oniy be reinforced partially. This leads to a certain amount of waste. 

An alternative process is the production of locally reinforced fabrics where the multiaxial threads are supplied only locally. With this method, cut-outs or connecting points on a woven fabric can be reinforced directly without the need for another processing step. The amount of waste is hence reduced considerably. This process can be used for preforming applications. 

In winding, knots increasingly being replaced by splices. The goal is to produce automated, offset, yarn-similar, high-tenacity splices during twisting. 

Sizing with defined and minimized size application and exact knowledge of the resulting yarn properties, introduction of compact spinning principles. 

Complete elimination of the sizing process, for example, by tangling of filament yarns.

From the early 1980s to present, infrared sensitive two dimensional arrays were mated to integrated circuits for signal processing and sensitivity to better than 0.03 K (see Photodetectors). These focal plane arrays of some 500 by 500 elements eliminate the need for scanning and provide good spatial resolution. Some versions have no special cooling requirements. The development trend is to increase the number of pixels to improve resolution, increase the field of view and keep the size and cost of the optics within acceptable bounds. 

One of perspective development trends of methods of heavy metals contents reification in natural waters is the creation of selective and express test-method with a possibility of detection at a level and above than maximum allowable concentrations (MAC) of metals - toxiferous.

Ukraine s Y. Maletin et al. presented a comprehensive overview describing state of the art as well as future development trends in supercapacitors, as the fifth paper in this chapter. The authors establish key performance bars for supecapacitors upon meeting those, supercapacitors may start to compete with batteries. Also, this paper highlights so-called hybrid applications where supercapacitors complement operation of batteries and/or fuel cells. Optimization of supercapacitor performance through varying electrode thickness is contemplated in length. 

The demand for mass-producible, low-cost diagnostic chips has had a significant impact on the development trends for optical sensor platforms. Arguably the most important characteristics of recent systems are the integration of multiple functionalities onto a single platform, the ability to perform multianalyte detection and the production of low-cost sensor platforms. These strategies are intended to maximise the viability of a device for development as a commercial product. 

This chapter provides an overview of the technology, the products that can be made using this technology, important terminology, and a general overview of the history and modern development trends.

In this chapter, we will pay attention to the basic or common materials requirements of the plate according to its functions in fuel cells. The emphasis will be put on plate materials used in transportation fuel cells because these applications, more directly for automotive, have potentially the largest market for fuel cells and the related material requirements are most challenging [1]. The various plate materials, fabrication process, and major challenges will be introduced and analyzed. The underlying mechanism and development trends will also be discussed.
