TYPES OF TECHNICAL TEXTILES

According to the end use, technical textiles can be divided into

different categories.AGROTECH: These are the Agro-textiles, also known as

Agrotex, that are used in agricultural applications releated to

growing and harvesting of crops and animals.BUILDTECH: These are the Construction Textiles, also known

as Buildtex, used in construction and

architectural applications. Such fabrics as PVC coated high

tenacity PES, teflon coated glass fiber fabrics are used

in airports and hotels.CLOTHTECH: These are the clothing textiles, also known as

clothtex.GEOTECH: These are the Geotextiles, also known as Geotex,

which are woven, nonwoven and knit fabric used for many

functions such as support, drainage and separation at or

below ground level:


HOMETECH: These are the Domestic Textiles, also known as Hometex, used in making of many home furnishing fabrics including carpet backings, curtains, wall coverings, etc.

INDUTECH: These are the Industrial Textiles, also known as Indutex, used in different ways by many industries for activities such as separating, and purifying industrial products, cleaning gases.

MEDTECH: These are the Medical Textiles, also known as Medtex. They include all the medical fabrics that are used in health and hygiene applications in both consumer and medical markets.

MOBILTECH: These textiles, also known as Mobiltex, are used in transport industry, such as in construction of automobiles, railways ships etc.

ECO TECH(OEKOTECH): These are the Eco-friendly Textiles, also known as oekotex or Ecotex. They are mostly used in environmental protection applications, floor sealing, erosion protection, air cleaning, prevention of water pollution, water cleaning, waste treatment/ recycling, depositing area construction.


PACKTECH: These are the packaging Textiles, also known as Packtex. Textiles have been used for packaging since ages.

PROTECH: These are the Protective Textiles, also known as Protex, that are used in the manufacturing of protective clothing of different types. Protection against heat and radiation for fire fighter clothing, against molten metals for welders, for bullet proof jackets or for chemical protective clothing all depend on the use of protech. The protective textiles are made with the help of specialty fibers such as aramid fiber used in making of bullet proof jackets, glass fibers used in fire proof jackets etc.

SPORTTECH: These are the sports Textiles, also known as sporttex, used

mainly for making sports wear including sports shoes and

other sports accessories.

From ancient times the textile materials were used for medical applications in India viz. surgical sponge, linen, silk sutures, strips, catgut, etc.

Latest technological developments has enabled extensive use of technical textiles in healthcare industry today.

Areas of usage

A range of natural fibers and biodegradable polymers with non-biodegradable synthetic polymers are being utilised for developing new products in medical textiles.

Since the medical textile applications are directly related to the life of human being, these are required to undergo stringent testing and hygienic criteria.

This led to innovative use of variety of fibers and lot of developments taking place in this field.

Textiles are very important in all aspects of medicine and surgery.

Advances in nonwovens have resulted in a new breed of medical textiles.

Advanced composite materials containing combination of fibres and fabrics have been developed for applications where biocompatibility and strength are required.

It is predicted that the nonwoven materials will continue to have greater impact in this sector because of large member of characteristics and performance criteria required from these materials.

FURNISHING FABRICS

Cruise ships can be regarded as

FLOATING HOTELS. So quality of textiles

must be standard

High flame retardancy standards due to

narrow corridors and low ceilings

Dyes must be fast to fast to light, rubbing

and salt water

wool carpets are generally Zirpro treated

titanium /zirconium salt)

Durable Anti-static properties are needed

conductive fibres are more durable than

finishes

Nylon fabric is coated with

polychloroprene / natural

rubber blend or natural

rubber/polybutadiene.

The nylon cords like 940dtex/2

and 940 dtex/3/3.

This is highly twisted to impart

fatigue resistance.

Though aramid fibres are

stronger but due to poor fatigue

resistance not used in this

application.

HOVERCRAFT SKIRTS

Hovercraft can be

deployed on terrain

such as marshes

where boats cannot

go.

These articles are designed to contain accidental oil

spillages in rivers and ocean.

woven nylon or polyester as a base

fabric(175gsm)coated with Hypalon, polychoroprene,

PVC or PVC/ nitrile rubber, urethane .

The material should be oil resistant.

OIL BOOMS

Where ropes need to stretch and to

absorb high-impact energies.

Nylon ropes, followed by polyester ropes

are popular olden days.

Second generation of synthetic fibers-

aramid, high-modulus polyethylene,

Vectran & PBOone-tenth its weight when

compare to steel.

The low weight and high strength of HPPE

fibres to produce heavy-duty ropes. Its

normally Float on water, are flexible and

have a low elongation.

ROPES AND NETS

FUNCTIONAL APPLICATIONS life rafts, buoyancy tubes, canopies and

life jackets, and personal flotation

devices, minesweepers, sonar domes

and in corrosive-cargo carriers.

Life jackets made by woven polyamide

coated with butyl or polychloroprene

rubber to get gsm of 230–290.

Geotextile Applications in Roads

ASTM D4439 defined a geotextile as followsGeotextile : A permeable geosynthetic

comprised solely of textiles. Geotextiles are used with foundation, soil, rock, earth, or any other geotechnical engineering-related material as an integral part of a human-made product structure, or system.

Due to the very wide range of applications and the tremendous variety of available textiles having widely different properties, the selection of a particular design method or design philosophy is a critical decision that must be made before the actual mechanics of the design process are initiated.

Geotextile Functions and Mechanisms

An overview of geotextiles, alluded to many applications falling into categories:

Separation

Reinforcement

Filtration

Drainage

Containment

When properly identified, lead to the design-by-function method.

This is the synergistic improvement in the total system strength created by the introduction of a geotextile into a soil and developed primarily through the following three mechanisms:

One, lateral restraint through interfacial friction between geotextile and soil/aggregate.

Two, forcing the potential bearing surface failure plane to develop at alternate higher shear strength surface.

And three, membrane type of support of the wheel loads.
