Long-term prediction of creep in textile fibres
(1994)The axial creep of a textile fibre produced from a blend of fibre-grade polypropylene with 5 wt% of commercial atactic polystyrene was measured for 4 h over a range of stresses and temperatures. Using a combined ... -
Effect of dynamic loading on compressional behaviour of spunbonded nonwoven fabrics
(1994)Spunbonded nonwoven fabrics are extensively used in a number of technical applications due to their physical, mechanical and hydraulic characteristics. In geotextile application, when these types of fabrics are used under ... -
Utilization potential of solar energy in the Indian silk industry
(1994)A case is made for the use of solar energy in meeting the energy requirements of the silk production and processing industry of India. The paper briefly reviews the energy requirements of the silk industry and identifies ... -
Effect of processing history on shrinkage stress in axially oriented poly (ethylene terephthalate) fibres and films
(1994)Axially oriented poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibres and films with widely differing processing histories were prepared by varying the spinning speed in the case of fibres and the speed, temperature, medium and extent of ... -
Compressional behaviour of layered needle-punched nonwoven geotextiles
(1993)Compressional behaviour of nonwoven fabrics depends on various raw material characteristics. Experiments to see the effect of fibre denier on the compressional behaviour of needle-punched nonwoven fabrics of different mass ... -
Internal stress in a cured epoxy resin system
(1993)An epoxy resin system based on a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A type difunctional epoxy resin containing different amounts of a tetrafunctional curing agent, namely metaphenylene diamine, was used to prepare two types of ... -
Studies on nonisothermal crystallization of HDPE/POSS nanocomposites
(2004)The nonisothermal crystallization of HDPE/POSS nanocomposites (POSS content varying from 1 to 10 wt%) was studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique. The Ozawa approach failed to describe the crystallization ... -
Effect of molecular orientation on the crystallization and melting behavior in poly(ethylene terephthalate)
(2004)Amorphous poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers in which the skin was removed were studied to expressly study the effect of amorphous molecular orientation on crystallization behavior. Thermal analysis was carried out on ... -
Studies on tyre cords: degradation of polyester due to fatigue
(2004)A comparison of physical characteristics of nylon 6, nylon 66 and polyester tyre cords was made. Polyester was found to have excellent dimensional stability in comparison to others. Service conditions of the tyre cords ... -
Stimuli sensitive copolymer poly(N-tert-butylacrylamide-ran-acrylamide): processing into thin films and their transitional behaviour
(2003)Temperature sensitive polymer hydrogels are being extensively studied because of their potential applications in biomedical, robotics, and chemical industry. However, major hurdles in their development have been their slow ... -
Application of principles of event related open systems to business process reengineering
(2003)This paper is focused on analysing the complete business environment with the help of information technology. It takes into account various interactions between different business processes while conducting BPR exercise. ... -
Development of a new styrene copolymer membrane for recycling of polyester fibre dyeing effluent
(2001)A new ultra-filtration membrane has been developed using indigenously available polymer, low cost solvents and a simple casting technique. The performance evaluation of the developed membrane in terms of pure water ... -
Thermal behaviour of acrylonitrile copolymers having methacrylic and itaconic acid comonomers
(2001)The effect of comonomers, methacrylic (MAA 3–6 mol%) and itaconic acid (IA 2–3 mol%) on the glass transition temperature, Tg, hydration melting and thermo-oxidative stabilization of acrylonitrile copolymers has been studied ... -
Characterization of a braided strip drain with coir and jute yarns
(2000)A simple machine has been developed at the Textile Technology Department of IIT Delhi that uses coir and jute yarns to manufacture 100% natural fibre strip drains. The machine employing braiding technology braids jute yarns ... -
The interfibrillar phase in poly (ethylene terephthalate) fibre
(1997)Transmission electron microscopy(TEM)at high magnification of thin cross-sections of drawn multifilament poly(ethelene terephthalate)yarn and of this yarn after heat setting in the slack state at 250C and in the taut state ... -
Interaction Between Viscoelastic And Structural Relaxation In Drawn Polypropylene Yarn
(1995)An unusual observation has been made during stress relaxation experiments on as-drawn polypropylene multifilament yarn which had not been subjected to any conditioning treatment. At 0.5% prestrain and at temperatures of ... -
Polymer Communications Change in Crystal Width on Axial Stretching of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Yarn
(1995)Drawn multifilament poly(ethylene terephthalate) yarn was heat-set isothermally at temperatures between 180 and 258°C in the slack and taut conditions. The apparent crystal widths of these samples in the undeformed state ...
