As the focus on physical health increases, the market demand for flexible wearable sensors
increases. Textiles combined with sensitive materials and electronic circuits can form …

This paper reports on the fabrication of a new yarn strain sensor based on commonly used
polyurethane yarn which is easily incorporated into textile structures by using textile …

Wearable electronics is an emerging field in academics and industry, in which electronic
devices, such as smartwatches and sensors, are printed or embedded within textiles. The …

Elastane fibres show rubber like behavior and are highly stretchable. Basically these fibres
contain polyurethane bonds. Elastic fabrics are an important route to achieve comfort by …

The garment stretch and recovery characteristics due to body movements can be indirectly
assessed by the dynamic elastic recovery (DER) value of the fabrics at different extension …

Elastane percentage in the core-spun cotton yarn of a specific linear density can be affected
in two ways: either by changing the elastane denier or the draft ratio. The purpose of this …

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of elastane linear density and draft ratio on
the physical and mechanical properties of core-spun yarns. Twenty yarn samples were …

E-textiles based on yarn-based sensors have been a topic of intense research. In our
previous paper, a straightforward way for fabricating tri-component elastic-conductive …

The V-grooved ceramic guide roller, employed in textile cable machines, wire drawing
machines, and copper wire guiding machines, is one of the most critical components used in …

The present paper reports the interaction effect of elastane stretch, proportion of elastane
core and twist multiplier on physical and mechanical properties of stretchable elastane …
