These infectious diseases have developed antibiotic resistance and spread despite the best efforts of staff, mainly through textiles like bed linen.
by using a revolutionary nanotechnology to treat bed linen and other textiles. The European Nanobond consortium consisted of six companies and two scientific partners.
It developed durable antimicrobial textiles with a polymeric coating in the nano range thickness in other words
The textiles have been tested clinically to withstand industrial-strength laundry cycles, and the treatment lasts for the entire lifetime of the product.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) now warns that textiles act as a microbial harbour for superbugs.
these antimicrobial textiles will resist, and not spread the infections, says Nanobond project coordinator Patrice Vandendaele, from Belgium-based Devan Chemicals,
Vandendaele said Nanobond sought to develop easy-to-clean textiles that last long use few chemicals, keep patients healthy and avoid cross-contamination.
so they would glue better to the surface of the textiles, Vandendaele says. The antimicrobial surface effectively acts physically rather than chemically.
a glue system to attach to the textiles, and an antimicrobial part to pierce the membrane of any bacteria cell that it touches. t works like a spike bursting a balloon,
what lands on the textiles. t also means that articles treated with the new technology will have a longer natural lifetime through protection against damage and spoilage,
universities and small and medium sized companies with specialist expertise in areas like textile and aeronautics."High-tech textiles have advanced a lot in the last few years.
Even bulletproof vests now use composite textiles, "said Zangani.""For this application of the technology, we needed blast protection, first of all,
ballistic fibres with hybrid textiles from lightweight fibres, including aramid (a kind of strong, heat-resistant synthetic fibre) and carbon.
"We used a multilayered structure of textiles that provided enough resistance to fully contain the gas expansion
But difficult problems still exist in integrating soft textiles with hard electronics and even with chemicals.
Cellulose biomaterials might be used to create biodegradable plastic bags textiles and wound dressings; flexible batteries made from electrically conductive paper;
Other materials such as teflon and silicon can also be loaded into the machine to produce different fabrics and textiles (and maybe even#invisible#ones
The last 18 months have seen redesign after redesign of the glove textiles, hardware and software and we have arrived finally at a point where we can make them available to others through this Kickstarter.

The researchers created a novel TNG fabric out of a silvery textile coated with nanorods and a silicon-based organic material.
imec associated lab at Ghent University, have demonstrated the world first stretchable and conformable thin-film transistor (TFT) driven LED display laminated into textiles.
A key step towards realizing wearable devices in clothing is creating displays that can be integrated into textiles to allow interaction with the wearer. earable devices allow people to monitor their fitness
allowing the displays to be laminated in to textiles that can be washed. Importantly, the technology uses fabrication steps that are known to the manufacturing industry
Electronics transmit data to your smartphone The sensors are made from a soft and very stretchy elastomer silicone film that is easy to integrate into textiles.
the textile could be used in sports and fitness. Joggers could use the integrated sensor stockings to analyze their running style
#Knitted Supercapacitors to Power Smart Shirts Researchers from Drexel University in collaboration with the U s. Naval academy, have invented a way to embed activated carbon particles into different types of yarn to form a knitted textile that can store
Trying to create a textile that can store energy without the use of exotic, expensive materials,
Although we will probably not be using energy storage textiles to power our smartphones any time soon due to the low energy density of the current technology,
She spent 9 months researching and a total of 2, 000 hours 3d printing the textiles for her garments.
I also wanted to have the freedom to make my own textiles as opposed to depending on what
and created different patterns to develop a lacelike textile for her other four garments. Peleg says that each piece took about 400 hours to complete from the idea to the final result
and is a subsidiary of Atomik Textile group which specialized in high-tech knit fabrics and apparel since 1989.

#Researcher Integrates"Motherboard"in Textiles for Determining Sleep Cycles The specialist in infrared physics found a way for the technology to reach the majority of the population,
and found that textiles are used most, so he decided to turn them intelligent. The entrepreneur exemplifies that he can"integrate"in the sheets or bedspreads a card with sensors capable of measuring sleep cycles."
therefore can various textiles smart and not only one"."Vacas Jacques, who worked at the Massachusetts institute of technology (MIT)- details that development was achieved with the support of the Innovation Park De La Salle in Guanajuato, center state in Mexico.

explained in a post on Wednesday. pply those properties to textiles, and you get a fabric with 100 times the strength of reinforced steel but that is as soft and flexible as the most comfortable fabrics.
Still, Silicon valley is betting that Bolt silk could supplant petroleum-based textiles such as polyester, Lycra,
