Over 2000 representatives have been represented at the conference. 863 articles on science and technology related to textile and new materials have been collected at home and abroad.

More than 20 scientific and technological information has been released for the first time in China. This platform also introduces nearly 100 scientific research achievements, and more than 10 scientific research achievements have been pformed.

The seminar has become a more influential activity in the field of functional textiles, and has become an interdisciplinary platform for academic, scientific and research achievements in many disciplines, fields and levels.

Nano propulsion function

Since the 90s of last century, China

Nanotechnology provides powerful support for the development of functional textiles.

Experts at Beijing Institute Of Fashion Technology say that the advantage of nanotechnology is that it does not produce large amounts of waste.

In recent years, functional textiles with nanotechnology have emerged, such as waterproof, antifouling, moisture permeable functional clothing, far-infrared health care clothing, bullet proof clothing, and textiles with UV, antibacterial, flame retardant and antistatic properties.

Experts from Donghua University introduced the latest achievements in the manufacture of nanofibers by electrospinning.

The technology is simple and easy to operate. It is not only a simple nanofiber manufacturing technology, but also mainly controls the fiber structure at micro scale, and adjusts the composition or proportion of the functional components inside the fiber.

This technology provides new support for the development of new nanofibers.

In recent years, with the continuous development of electrospinning technology, nanofiber materials with special structure, especially twisted nanofibers with twisted helix, are favored by people.

The fiber morphology is diverse and widely used in microelectronics, advanced optical materials and drug delivery.

Experts from Beijing Institute Of Fashion Technology have made an in-depth study of the manufacturing technology of these fibers, and successfully prepared two component nanofibers with twisted helical structure.

Tianjin University of Technology has carried out in-depth research in the field of microfiltration and reverse osmosis membrane technology, which has been widely applied in sewage treatment, seawater desalination and material purification.

Green new functional fiber theme

With the concept of low-carbon green lifestyle and ecological textiles gradually entering into people's life, green textiles have become a hot spot of consumption. Today, with the scarcity of available resources, the development of new natural fibers has become the direction of continuous efforts of scientists and technicians.

Technicians from the Agricultural Machinery Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences have focused their attention on pineapple and developed pineapple leaf fiber.

According to introducing, our country is rich in pineapple leaf fiber resources, but a large number of Pineapple leaves are abandoned as waste, resulting in huge waste of resources.

Research shows that pineapple leaf fiber has good antibacterial properties, and has good bacteriostatic effect against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.

At present, the Agricultural Machinery Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences has developed natural pineapple leaf fiber socks, towels, underwear, towels, mat and other products, and has entered the market.

According to the technical personnel, pineapple leaf fiber can be pure spinning, but also can be blended with cotton, hemp and synthetic fiber.

Experts say that the development of pineapple leaf fiber and its textiles will not only improve the value of the industrial chain of pineapple industry, but also help the textile industry adjust the product structure, meet the requirements of people's environmental protection and health, and have considerable social and economic benefits.

World Expo's mascot Haibao is loved by the audience. Its luminous function at night is attracting more and more attention, including the contribution of textile science and technology personnel.

Experts from Jiangnan University say that this is derived from a new functional fiber, which uses polyester, nylon or polypropylene as the base material, adding rare earth nano auxiliaries, and forming special energy storage type multicolored noctilucent fiber through special spinning process. It can store light energy in fibers.

As long as the fiber absorbs 10 minutes of visible light, it can continue to shine for more than 10 hours in the dark.

This kind of fiber needs no dyeing to avoid the environmental impact of dyeing wastewater.

This high value-added fiber has entered the industrialization stage, and can be widely used in life, national defense and other fields.

Experts from Xi'an Polytechnic University have put forward a new idea of developing chicken feather fiber, which can be used as hydrogen storage material, bulletproof vest material, advanced filter paper material, light panel material and so on.

Functional textiles flagship health card

In recent years, health and environmental protection has become a topic of increasing concern. Eco friendly, healthy and comfortable functional textiles have gradually become a hot spot in the textile market at home and abroad.

At this symposium, new textile materials and technologies with healthy functions such as healthy natural dyes, far-infrared rays and negative ions have become a topic of concern.

Beijing Saussurea cashmere Limited by Share Ltd has actively explored the use of tea pigments extracted from tea as natural dyes and successfully produced cashmere garments samples.

The company's technical staff said that tea has the pharmacological effects of eliminating fatigue, bactericidal and anti-inflammatory, improving immune function. China is a big tea producing country. If the tea with no drinking value is applied to the dyeing of fabrics, it can save the cost of dyeing and open up a new way for the comprehensive utilization of tea.

Far infrared ray has a positive effect on improving microcirculation and promoting metabolism and growth of human body.

The development of far-infrared textiles has become a hot spot in the research and development of functional textiles at home and abroad.

According to Korean experts, in South Korea, textiles with far infrared function account for 45% of the total functional textiles.

Japanese experts also said that Japan has studied far-infrared fibers for 20 years, and far-infrared textiles occupy an important position in the Japanese market.

The problem is that the production cost of this kind of functional textiles is still very high. In the future, efforts should be made to reduce costs.

Negative ions have been proved to be essential to life and have the reputation of longevity.

Yanshan University experts engaged in textile materials research believe that the future market potential of negative ion health care textiles is very large.

At the present level, a whole set of technical systems, such as raw materials screening, processing, fiber manufacturing, fabric production, finishing and testing, has been formed. It has unique advantages in home textiles, underwear and other fields, and will continue to receive constant attention from the industry in the future.

Some experts also pointed out that at present, some functional textiles detection methods are not perfect and the evaluation criteria are not uniform, which limits the further development of the functional textiles industry, and calls for speeding up the formulation of national standards or industry standards for related products.

According to the relevant personages of the textile industry standardization institute, at present, China will make a large number of functional textile standards on the basis of some of the standards already published, so as to ensure that the quality of products and their functions are quantified.
