Digital Textile Printing: Science, Technology and Markets integrates the latest advances in the technology, management and design of digital textile printing. Ongoing improvements in digital technology have driven a high rate of innovation in this sector, and this book draws on the latest advances from industry and academia to bring the reader fully up-to-date. The theoretical and practical aspects of the subject are addressed across the supply chain. In addition to the latest digital methods, the book also provides the latest advice on inks, their rheology, their affinity to different fibers, and their shelf-life.

This collection also explores emerging applications in this sector, pointing the way for future developments in textile printing.

This book summarizes all different fields of cotton fiber, including genetics, fiber chemistry, soft materials, textile, and fashion engineering. It also contains some new applications such as biomaterials, nanocoated smart fabrics, and functional textiles. Moreover, the significant improvement recently in gene modification and gene technology is introduced. This book discusses all these aspects in a more straightforward way, and new illustrations will help readers to understand the contents. It is intended for undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in cotton science and processing technologies, researchers investigating the updated applications of cotton in various fields as well as industrialists who want to have a quick review of the cotton and its different stages.

This book comprehensively explores the fascinating intersection of deep eutectic solvents (DES) and nanocellulose, focusing specifically on their extraction methods and textile applications. It delves into the revolutionary role of deep eutectic solvents in nanocellulose extraction. Deep eutectic solvents are a class of non-toxic, low-cost, and environmentally friendly solvents formed by combining hydrogen bond donors and acceptors. They possess unique properties that make them highly suitable for dissolving cellulose and facilitating nanocellulose extraction with enhanced efficiency and sustainability. The book begins by providing a thorough overview of nanocellulose, its types, properties, and potential applications in the textile industry. It then delves into the fundamentals of deep eutectic solvents, their composition, properties, and synthesis methods. The subsequent chapters focus on the extraction techniques and strategies employed to obtain nanocellulose using deep eutectic solvents, highlighting the advantages and challenges associated with each method. It also discusses the potential modifications and functionalizations of nanocellulose to enhance its compatibility with textile applications, such as surface grafting, blending, and composite formation. The last part of the book shifts its focus to the applications of deep eutectic solvents in the textile industries. It explores the textile materials fibers, yarns, fabrics, and modification and dyeing and highlights the resulting improvements in mechanical strength, moisture management, thermal insulation, and UV protection.

This book explores the consumption and production aspects of the textile and garment industry, with a focus on the challenges and opportunities being faced by the industry. It offers a thorough exploration of consumption and production dynamics within the textile and garment industry across vital Asian countries. It aims to unravel this vital sector''s economic, cultural and technological intricacies of China, India, Vietnam, Bangladesh and South Korea. It further examines the environmental and social impacts of the industry, including issues such as pollution, waste and labor conditions. It will also explore emerging trends and innovations in the industry, such as sustainable materials and production methods and the rise of ethical consumerism. It is a valuable resource for students, researchers, policymakers and industry professionals interested in understanding and addressing this critical sector''s challenges.

This book mainly focuses on SDG4- Quality Education, and aims to understand the past, present, and future of textile, fashion, apparel, and related study majors of East African countries. Professors and field experts in textile engineering of selected countries describe the potential and prospects of textile education and how it can lead to internationalization in the various chapters. It also discusses the textile university alliance and the potential for international education related to textiles in the developing region. With updated illustrations, images, data, graphs and tables, this book serves as a reference book for universities with textile engineering major in countries throughout the world.
