      By dry-wet spinning of cellulose/[BMIM]Cl (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride) solution and cellulose/[EMIM]Ac (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate) solution, three typical regenerated cellulose fibers with high-strength, fibrillation resistance, conventional strength respectively were successfully prepared. The mechanical properties, pore sizes and orientation of the regenerated cellulose fibers were investigated by utilizing tensile-fineness tester, wet friction and small angle X-ray scattering. The mechanism of formation was discussed. The results showed that ionic liquids, degree of polymerization (DP) of cellulose, extrusion swelling, draw stress and orientation of the solution during the spinning process had significant impacts on the DP and orientation of the regenerated cellulose fibers, which promoted the formation of the regenerated cellulose fibers with various mechanical properties, pore sizes and pore orientation distributions.

      A series of composites based on different side-chain length fatty alcohol (CnOH, n=14,16,18,26) and poly(stearyl methacrylate) (PSMA) with weight ratio of 60:40 are prepared by physical mixing method. The structures, thermal performances, phase change behaviors and crystallization behaviors of were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). The C14OH/PSMA and C16OH/PSMA composites exhibit maltese cross of polymer spherulite, and their size is approximately ca. 250 μm. However, for C18OH/PSMA and C26OH/PSMA composites, no polymer spherulite morphology is founded. The heat enthalpy and thermal stabilities of CnOH/PSMA composites increases with the side-chain length of CnOH, and it shows the complicated variation behavior. The crystal morphology is deeply discussed from the aspect of crystal nucleation and side-chain crystallization behavior, and the end-use possibility of thermal energy storage is also clarified.

      The application of polyester fiber in the field of clothing is restricted because of its disadvantage such as low moisture absorption, easy accumulation of electrostatic charge, dying under high temperature and pressure. In order to improve the comfort of PET fibers, cotton-like PET fibers were prepared via purified terephthalic acid direct esterification with the incorporation of pentaerythritol at the first esterification stage and polyethylene glycol and titanium dioxide at the second esterification stage. The cross section of cotton-like PET fibers was designated to cross shaped structure during melting spinning process. The moisture absorption process, antistatic property and dyeing behavior were investigated. The results showed that the prepared cotton-like PET fibers had better moisture absorption behavior (0.93% measured at the condition of 20℃,65%)and antistatic property(4.23×108Ω.cm after 5 washes) compared with the unmodified ones. Besides that the cotton-like PET fibers had the characteristic of atmospheric boiling dyeing.

      Thermo-responsive textiles can adjust themselves by responding to the environment temperature,which is one of the most researched smart textiles. They have a promising future for thermal/moisture self-adjustment, water-storage and medicine control releasing etc. To prepare thermal-responsive textiles, polymers with the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) are normally grafted onto the fabric. However, it is difficult to graft thermal responsive polymers on textile materials due to lake of reactive sites on textile fibers such as cotton. In this study, the amino silicone finishing was used to introduce amino groups onto cotton fibers and to improve fabric softness. NIPAAm was then successfully grafted onto the cotton by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), which was confirmed by the infrared and contact angle measurements. Prepared cotton-PNIPAAm has a great thermal responsive performance indicated by transitions between hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface reversibly at the LCST.

      The geometric parameters of the transfer channel and the spatial position of the rotor and channel have great influence on the air flow characteristics in the rotor spinning machine and then affect the straightness of the fibers in the transfer zone. The method of numerical simulation is used to study the air flow of the transfer channel and the rotor, and the effects of the transfer channel characteristic number and the spatial position of the rotor and channel on the air flow and fiber straightness are investigated. The simulation results show that from the inlet to the outlet of the transfer channel, the negative pressure increases steadily first, and then it increases dramatically, and this trend becomes more obvious with the increasing characteristic number. The velocity difference increases along with the increasing characteristic number. The negative pressure along the transfer channel diminishes first, and then enhances, while the velocity difference increase with the enlarging of the space angle α. The space angle β has comparatively small effect on the pressure and velocity distribution in the transfer channel; however, it mainly changes the initial contact position of fibers and the rotor.

      The surface structure and properties of fabrics significantly influence the color effect of inkjet prints. Modified polyacrylamide, hydrotreated light distillate, acrylic acid copolymer and sodium alginate were used, respectively, to surface-treat two different kinds of cotton fabric in order to analyze the influence of fabric structure and surface treatment on inkjet printing colors of five reactive dye inks. The results show that the high density fabric obtains deeper color and lower wet rubbing fastnesses than low density fabric. Nonionic polyacrylamide with better hydrophilicity gives the best color effect among the four kinds of surface treating agents after inkjet printing with reactive dyes. Sodium sulfate exhibits no obvious darkening effect on inkjet-printed fabrics.
