Hollow Fibres

The effects of finishing steps on hollow and solid polyester/wool have been studied in order to establish the processing behaviour and performance characteristics of fabrics from these fibres. The effect of hollow fibres on fabric tensile strength, pilling, and crease recovery were studied. In addition, the water vapour permeability, air permeability, thermal properties and fabric handle were investigated. The results show that finishing has no adverse effects on fabric strength. By using hollow fibres in the fabrics, the extent of pilling was reduced. Among the different steps of finishing, scouring has the most significant effect on fabric hand due mainly to the large reduction in both bending, and shear rigidity and hysteresis. The results on crease recovery, water vapour permeability and air permeability revealed that the fabric properties are more affected by the fabric structure than the type of polyester fibre. In addition, while the hollow fibre fabrics always have lower thermal conductivity than similar fabrics with solid polyester fibres, their thermal properties are greatly affected by the dyeing process.

Printing Papers

Water-vapour permeability is a critical factor of writing/ printing papers in most of practical applications; but how to monitor the manufacturing process to keep the key characteristic of the paper in control is still understudied. Therefore, in this paper, in order to monitor the water-vapour permeability of writing/ printing papers, MaxGWMA chart is first suggested due to its best effectiveness in terms of average run length performance and its high capability of detecting small shifts in the process mean and variability as well as identifying the source and the direction of an out-of-control signal. By using MaxGWMA chart, assignable causes of any out-of-control signal should be deeply examined so as to have proper corrective actions undertaken to either eliminate them from the process or reduce the variability induced by them to make the papers consistently manufactured under a stable process.

AbstractRetrofitting thermal insulation to solid masonry walls alters their hygrothermal behaviour, which can be modelled by hygrothermal simulation software. However, such software needs values of key material properties to ensure satisfactory results and until now data has not been available for Scottish masonry buildings. This work aims to contribute to a Scotland-specific dataset of material properties for use by designers working on such buildings. Thermal conductivity, water vapour permeability, sorptivity, water absorption coefficient, hygroscopic sorption, density and porosity were all determined experimentally for selected historic and contemporary masonry materials. Within the range of materials tested three groups of materials properties emerge. Natural hydraulic lime mortars, hot-mixed quicklime mortar and earth mortar all show comparatively low density, high porosity, low thermal conductivity, high water vapour permeability and variable but generally high hygroscopic sorption. Craigleith, Hailes and Giffnock sandstones, no longer available but obtained from conservation works on historic buildings, and Locharbriggs and Hazeldean sandstones, obtained from current production, all show intermediate values of these properties. Crathes granodiorite and Scottish whinstone (from current production) show high density, low porosity, high thermal conductivity, low water vapour permeability and low hygroscopic sorption. It is shown that these materials are all relevant to Scottish buildings constructed in traditional masonry and this paper presents the first comprehensive set of hygrothermal property data for them.
