In relation to the engineering of compression resistant thermal insulation materials, an
unconventional application of hydroentangling technology is introduced in which …

The term 'composite nonwovens' refers to a category of materials different from 'nonwoven
composites', which consist of a resinous matrix reinforced by an embedded nonwoven …

Thermal resistance of the fabrics is one of the decisive parameters in terms of comfort;
however it can change due to wetting. Therefore, thermal resistance of wetted fabric is …

Conductive heat in a fibrous material travels through both the air (interstitial fluid) and the
fibers (solid phase). The numerical simulations reported in this paper are devised to study …

The thermal properties of polyester/polyethylene non-woven blankets of varying thicknesses
impregnated with aerogel were studied and compared. The SEM images were also taken to …

The relationship between fabric properties and thermal conductivity of various jute/cotton
blended knitted fabrics has been studied. The experimental result shows that lower thermal …

Flexible thermal protection materials made from two-dimensional woven ceramics fibers are
of significant interest for hypersonic inflatable aerodynamic decelerators being developed by …

This paper describes a study on heat resistant nonwoven batting materials used as
components in the construction of thermal liners systems in firefighter turnout suits. It …
