This document discusses applying reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) to cotton fabric to provide antimicrobial and UV protection properties. Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction were used to characterize the rGO material. The rGO-TiO2 mixture was applied to cotton using a padding method and achieved over 99% reduction of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria based on AATCC testing. UV protection testing showed the treatment blocked over 90% of UV rays depending on the concentration of rGO used. The study demonstrated cotton fabric with both antimicrobial and UV protection functions can be achieved through this rGO-TiO2 treatment method.
The Influence of Cationization on the Dyeing Performance of Cotton Fabrics wi...IJERA Editor
The effect of cationic modification of cotton fabrics, using cationic agent (Chromatech 9414) on direct dyeing characteristics was studied in this work. Cationization of cotton fabric at different conditions (pH, cationic agent concentration, temperature and time) was investigated and the optimum conditions were determined . Nitrogen content of cotton samples pretreated with cationic agent was indicated. The results showed that increasing cationic agent concentration lead to higher nitrogen content on cotton fabric . The cationized cotton fabrics were dyed with two direct dyes (C.I. Direct Yellow 142 - C.I. Direct red 224) and the results were compared to untreated cotton fabrics. The parameters which may affect the dyeing process such as dye concn., addition of salt, time and temperature of dyeing were studied. The dyeing results illustrate that cationization improves the fabric dyeability compared to the uncationized cotton and the magnitude of increase in colour depth depends on the nitrogen content of the cationized cotton fabric .The results also refer to possibility of dyeing cationized cotton fabric with direct dyes without addition of electrolytes to give colour strength higher than that achieved on uncationized cotton using conventional dyeing method .Another important advantage of cationic treatment is in the saving of dye concn., energy ,dyeing time , rinse water and subsequently saving of waste water treatment , and finally minimizes the environmental pollution . The changes in surface morphology of fibres after cationization were identified by various methods such as wettability and scanning with the electron microscope. Different fastness properties were evaluated.
The impact of flow rate and bed height on the adsorption behavior of methylene blue, Bismarck brown y, and indigo dyes on to Cedrus libani was investigated. The biomass was characterized by scanning electron microscopy as well as Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy before and after adsorption to ascertain the functional groups responsible for the adsorption. The amount of dye adsorbed per unit mass of the biomass (qe) was calculated and was found to be dependent on the variables investigated within the experimental range. It was discovered that increase in bed height and flow rate increased the value of the dye adsorbed on to the biomass. The results obtained show that methylene blue dye adsorbed more onto the biomass, while indigo dye adsorbed at the least level.

The adsorption behavior of Methylene blue dye, Bismarck brown Y dye, and Indigo dye on to Sphagnum cymbifolium (moss) was investigated as a function of flow rate, and bed height through the fixed bed process.
One of the main objectives of this research is to expand the field of application of natural biomass for the treatment of dye waste waters from industrial effluents. Additionally, it is aimed at elucidating the dependency or otherwise of flow rate, and bed height on adsorption using the fixed bed technique method of adsorption.
The biomass was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy in order to examine the morphology of the biomass. The screened biomass samples were characterized at 1000 ×magnification, and 500 ×magnification respectively for their surface morphologies. This was done using a scanning electron microscope which was equipped with an energy dispersive x-ray spectrophotometer employed for the elemental composition analyses. It was equally characterized with Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy before and after adsorption to ascertain the functional groups responsible for the adsorption. This was done using a Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectrophotometer (Perkin-Elmer, England) in the wavelength range of 350-4000 nm.
Results for the biomass morphology obtained through the Scanning Electron Microscopy revealed the presence of tiny pores. These pores represent sites where dye molecules could be trapped in the course of the adsorption. The result from the Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy after adsorption show that C-H, C≡H, C≡C functional groups were responsible for the adsorption. For methylene blue dye, at the flow rate of 20 m3/s, the amount of dye adsorbed was 18.80 mg/g, 22.70 mg/g at 30 m3/s, and 25.40 mg/g at 40 m3/s. For Bismarck brown Y dye, at the same range of flow rate, the amount of dye adsorbed ranged from 12.34 mg/g - 20.62 mg/g. For indigo dye, the values obtained ranged from 6.48 mg/g - 17.71 mg/g. In addition, at the bed height range of 4.0 - 6.0x10-2(m), the amount of dye adsorbed ranged from 6.31 mg/g - 27.73 mg/g for methylene blue dye. Within the same range of bed height, the amount of dye adsorbed ranged from 16.40 mg/g - 25.60 mg/g for Bismarck brown y dye, and 12.57 mg/g - 17.71 mg for indigo dye.

FLAMMABILITY CHARACTERISTICS OF CHEMICAL TREATED WOVEN HEMP FABRICmsejjournal
Woven hemp fabric was treated with sodium hydroxide, commercial flame retardant chemical, and
combination of both to increase its fire-retardant properties. Treatments of fire-retardant changed the
properties of woven hemp fabric such as increased its fabric shrinkage and density of fibres which ranges
from 0.67 to 5% and 1.43 to 1.53 g/cm3
respectively. After the treatment, the fire retardancy of the fabric
increased tremendously which was observed by the burning, thermogravimetry and limiting oxygen index
tests. Some of the samples were not burnt when exposed to flame source and the burning rate needed to be
measured under exaggeration of flame at longer time. The limiting oxygen index value increased from 18.6
to 51 after the treatments which explained the scenario happened in the burning tests. Nevertheless, its
mechanical properties decreased slightly that ranges from 18 to 32% and 23 to 39% for warp and weft
respectively compared to untreated fibre.

Plasma Treatment as Green Technology for Dyeing of Textile FabricsCrimsonpublishersTTEFT
Use of synthetic dyes for dyeing of textile fabrics are most problematic environmental concerned for textile industry owing to their toxic effect
on ecosystem. Thus, sustainable novel technologies for textile dyeing are needed that utilize enhanced dye uptake and improved performance
characteristics of fabric. Such technology may reduce dye concentration in waste-water effluents from textile sector and ultimately become energy
efficient and cost effective. Plasma technology has proven to impart enhanced dye exhaustion, dye penetration, dyeing in shorter time with minimal of
chemical auxiliaries and energy usage. The potential attributes of plasma on textile dyeing is discussed in this article..
Reactive dyes are synthetic organic compounds used on a wide scale in the textile industry, for painting materials of different types and compositions (e.g. 100% cotton, wool, natural satin, viscose, synthetic fibers). Reactive dyes are solid compounds (powders) completely water-soluble at normal temperature and pressure conditions. Their structures contain chromophore groups, which generate color, and autochrome groups, which determine the compound's water solubility and the capacity to fix the textile fiber. Such organic compounds absorb UV-Vis radiations at specific wavelengths, corresponding to maximum absorption peaks, in both solution and dyed fiber. The human organism, through the dyed clothing, comes in direct contact with those dyes which can undergo modifications once exposed to UV radiations, having the possibility to reach the organism via transdermal transport. As it is known, the provoked negative effects are stronger during summer when UV radiations are more intense and in order to reduce their intensity dark-colored clothing is avoided. Dyes can be transformed into compounds that are easily absorbed into the skin. Some of these metabolites can be less toxic than the original corresponding dye, whilst others, such as free radicals, are potentially cancerous. Knowledge of the biological effects of the organic dyes, reactive dyes in particular, correlated with their structural and physical characteristics, permanently consists an issue of high scientific and practical interest and its solution may contribute to the diminishing of risk factors and improving population health. UV radiation's influence on the structural and color modifications of textile materials was studied. Color modifications are due to structural changes in aromatic and carbonyl groups. In most cases, photo-oxidative processes were identified in the dye structure. Dyeing was performed using non-irradiated and irradiated cotton painted with reactive blue dye 204.
Evaluation of mechanical and water absorption behaviour of coir and rice husk...eSAT Journals
Abstract Coconut coir and rice husk are abundantly available in nature with the very low cost, and rice husk is an agricultural waste,
which is thrown away by the industry. The development of natural fiber composites from coconut coir and rice husk powder will
reduce agriculture waste and increases its usable value. Composite specimens were prepared according to the ASTM standards
with three different weight fractions of fiber, filler, and epoxy (5:15:80, 10:10:80, and 15:5:80) and conducted some mechanical
tests such as impact test and hardness test and water absorption behaviour. From the results it was found that, the mechanical
properties of untreated coir fiber and rice husk powder composites are more as compared to treated coir fiber and rice husk
powder composites, but in the case of water absorption property.

Grinding graphene characteristics after physical processjournal ijrtem
ABSTRACT : Graphene features higher thermal conductivity than copper. However, despite its superior property, the research on its applicable technology was limited since the van der Waals’ forces between graphene. As a solution to such problem, research on making graphene distributed evenly in solvent is being actively conducted via physical and chemical method. Because the chemical method is likely to have harmful effect on the environment, we used the environmental-friendly process that does not consume toxic chemicals, and suitable for application. In this study, ball milling process controllable a range of experiment conditions more easily and conveniently than other physical methods was conducted so as to disperse graphene evenly in solvent and improve the thermal conductivity. Therefore, the effect of milling process was confirmed in TEM image and Raman ratio, and the shearing force makes the edge of graphene piece defective. When graphene is evenly dispersed, the wide specific surface area absorbs a great deal of light, improving absorbance. We confirmed the absorbance of pristine graphene was showed below milling graphene and considerable thermal conductivity increase compared to pristine graphene.

Experimental Characterization of Carbon Fibre T700 / Epoxy towpreg for Space ...IJERA Editor
This document covers detailed experimental characterization of Carbon Fibre T 700/Epoxy towpreg.The
experimental characterization of carbon fibre T 700/Epoxy towpreg composite material is necessary required for
generation of mechanical properties data for analysis, design, and fabrication of structural components using
that material and for quality control of the material. The testing of composite materials offers unique surprises
because of the special characteristics of composites. Factors not considered important in metals testing are very
important in testing composites. For example, composites are anisotropic, with properties that depend on the
direction in which they are tested. Speed must be carefully monitored at the time of testing of specimens and
also fiber content, void content, specimen conditioning (drying, storage, etc) have important effects on material
properties.
In order to design composite products, a thorough experimental characterization of carbon fibre T 700 / Epoxy

Lyocell microfibre fabrics were produced using rapier weaving machine, which is to be used as inner layer while developing the Multilayered Technical Tecxtiles. The lyocell microfibre fabric has been treated with plasma using low pressure Oxygen. Then the plasma treated and untreated fabrics were dyed using reactive dyes. The dyed lyocell fabrics of plasma treated and untreated were tested for the comfort properties such as Wickablity, Air Permeablilty and Water Vapour Permeablilty. The results of the study confirmed that there is a significant improvments in Wickablilty and Air permeablilty of plasma treated fabrics which are essential characteristics for inner layer of the Multilayered Technical Textiles. The significant improvements due to new porus in the treated fabrics allow more air to penterate and also to increase the Wickablilty. Where as the Water Vapour Permeablilty characteristics of the untreated fabric have better results than plasma treated fabrics due to new etching on the surface of the treated fabrics which retain more vapour than untreated fabrics. The Plasma treated lyocell fabric can be used as inner layer for the development of Multilayered Technical Textiles.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
