Abstract

Knit spacer fabrics have gained popularity in varied functional applications. Some important types of these fabrics are highlighted. One such is in medical applications, wherein the weft knit spacer fabrics have been attempted in treating pressure ulcer. The results show that the air permeability, thermal conductivity and water vapor permeability of weft knitted spacer fabrics are comparable with the existing wound dressings. The compressional resistance and resilience of them are good for providing protection as wound dressing. The absorbency of them is somewhat better than some wound dressings; however, they are suitable for pressure ulcer wounds with no heavy extrude. Warp knit spacer fabrics offer a better option over polyurethane foam in car seats owing to their advantages such as better recovery to compression, thermal properties and breathability. Flat-knitted spacer fabrics offer a strong potential for complex shape preforms, which could be used to manufacture composites with reduced waste and shorter production times. This article focuses on the improved strength and stiffness of woven three-dimensional (3D) spacer fabrics used in fiber reinforced plastics. The spacer fabrics were manufactured using E-glass/polypropylene (GF/PP) hybrid yarns and are intended for lightweight engineering applications. Flat-knitted spacer fabrics offer a strong potential for complex shape preforms, which could be used to manufacture composites with reduced waste and shorter production times.

间隔织物技术在新应用领域的一些重大进展
针织间隔织物在各种功能应用中得到了广泛的应用。重点介绍了这些织物的一些重要类型。其中一个是在医疗应用中,其中纬编间隔织物已被尝试用于治疗压疮。结果表明,纬编间隔织物的透气性、导热性和透气性与现有伤口敷料相当。它们的抗压缩性和回弹性对伤口敷料有很好的保护作用。吸收性比一些创面敷料稍好;然而,它们适用于没有沉重挤压的压疮伤口。经编间隔织物在汽车座椅中提供了比聚氨酯泡沫更好的选择,因为它们具有更好的压缩恢复、热性能和透气性等优点。平编间隔织物为复杂形状预成型提供了强大的潜力,可用于制造复合材料,减少浪费,缩短生产时间。本文主要研究了提高纤维增强塑料中机织三维(3D)间隔织物的强度和刚度。间隔织物是由e -玻璃/聚丙烯(GF/PP)混合纱线制造的,用于轻量化工程应用。平编间隔织物为复杂形状预成型提供了强大的潜力,可用于制造复合材料,减少浪费,缩短生产时间。
