Textile industry applications

The largest consumer of PU adhesive is the textile industry. Applications include textile lamination, integral carpet manufacture and rebonding of foam. Rebonded foam is made using scrap PU foam bonded with a urethane prepolymer and used primarily as carpet underlay. PU adhesives are used to bond film to film, film to foil...

Another line of approach to the practical application of 1,3-oxazine derivatives was the suggested use of tetrahydro-1,3-oxazine derivatives as detergents for textile industry, as anticorrosion chemicals, and polymers from 2-oxo derivatives as additives to improve the properties of paper and textiles. ... 

The process is generally limited to certain plastics such as TP polyester and polyester based alloys due to the availability of dye technology from the textile industry. However, new dyes are under development and the application of the process to more plastics is anticipated. 

Polyester chemistry is the same as studied by Carothers long ago, but polyester synthesis is still a very active field. New polymers have been very recently or will be soon commercially introduced PTT for fiber applications poly(ethylene naph-thalate) (PEN) for packaging and fiber applications and poly(lactic acid) (PLA), a biopolymer synthesized from renewable resources (corn syrup) introduced by Dow-Cargill for large-scale applications in textile industry and solid-state molding resins. Polyesters with unusual hyperbranched architecture also recently appeared and are claimed to find applications as crosstinkers, surfactants, or processing additives. 

The most important industrial application of alkanesulfonates is the generation of the appropriate emulsions for polymerizing vinyl monomers, e.g., vinyl-chloride or styrene. Other uses are as textile and leather auxiliaries, formulating aids for plant protection agents, and fire-extinguishing foams. 

On the other hand, in spite of some interesting tinctorial properties, it does not seem that thiazolo dyes received wide application in the textile industry because they suffer from lack of stability to light and chemical agents. 

New results of multiple membrane separation are presented, which showed a possible feasibility for industrial application in the near future The NF permeate obtained (membrane NF90) could meet specifications for water reuse in the textile industry... 

Titanium dioxide (E171, Cl white 6) is a white, opaque mineral occurring naturally in three main forms rutile, anatase, and brookite. More than 4 million tons of titanium dioxide are produced per year and it is widely used for industrial applications (paints, inks, plastics, textiles) and in small amounts as a food colorant. ° "° Production and properties — Titanium oxide is mainly produced from ilmenite, a titaniferous ore (FeTiOj). Rutile and anatase are relatively pure titanium dioxide (Ti02) forms. Titanium oxide pigment is produced via chloride or sulfate processes via the treatment of the titanium oxide ore with chlorine gas or sulfuric acid, followed by a series of purification steps. High-purity anatase is preferred for utilization in the food industry. It may be coated with small amounts of alumina or silica to improve technological properties. 

The viscosity of natural gums, such as cellulose gums, mannogalactans, seaweed, pectin, locust bean gum, guar gum, and tragacanth has important industrial applications in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, textile, adhesives, and paint fields. The characteristics of viscosity are related to specific uses and to the economics of the process.

Flame retardants cause the plastic material to be safer in use in its final form. They are only used when the marketplace requires it in a wide range of applications spanning the construction, moulded parts, sealants, coatings and textile industries. High levels (up to 25 %) of FR are required in polypropylene - one of the most difficult plastics to render flame retardant - to meet standards for certain applications, such as in the... 

Biopract provides technological products and processes for industry, agriculture, and environment. They not only produce technical enzyme preparations but also develop enzymes for applications in agriculture, food, and textile industry as well as in environmental technologies. On the later, bioremediation has been an area of service delivery from Biopract. Their activities regards microbial preparations for the bioremediation of organic contaminants (mineral oil (MKW), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene (BTEX), methyl-tert-butyl ether (MTBE), volatile organic hydrocarbons (VOC), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)). 

As expected based on the 3d10 4s2 configuration, zinc routinely forms +2 compounds, and all of the halides having the formula ZnX2 are known. Anhydrous ZnCl2, which has applications in the textile industry, can be prepared as shown by the following equation ... 

Based on the previous studies and the above discussions, it is required to achieve environmentally sustainable development in textile industry since closing of water cycle is highly recommended [29]. It can often be done by the application of the combined membrane-biological processes, especially by the implementation of NF-biological and RO-biological processes, which enables the water reuse process, thereby the minimization of freshwater consumption.
