나노소재기술은 기존 소재로는 얻을 수 없는 새로운 기능 및 특성을 나타낼 수 있어 산업전반에 적용할 수 있는 최첨단집적기술이다. 그러나 나노입자를 섬유에 첨가하여 기능성 섬유를 생산하는 경우 응집이 발생하는 등의 다양한 문제점이 발생하는데 이를 극복하기 위해서는 사이즈 분포를 제어하는 기술, 표면처리를 통해 분산성을 향상시키는 기술, 나노입자와 섬유와의 상용성을 개선하는 기술 등이 해결되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 고기능성 및 고부가가치 경편파일 니트 원단을 개발하기 위해 은(Silver) 나노입자가 균일하게 분산된 M/B(Master Batch)를 제조하였으며, 이를 PET와의 용융 혼합 방사함으로써 0.5denier(75D/144F)급 원사에 99.9%의 영구적인 항균/소취 기능을 부여하였다. 또한 개발된 극세사를 이용하여 다양한 경편파일 원단을 설계하고, 기모, 염색 및 날염 등의 공정을 거쳐 나노기술융합형 화학섬유소재를 이용한 기능성 침장 제품을 개발하였다.

Rapid and selective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds is of important for the preparation of amino derivertives in organic synthesis, particularly when a molecule has other reducible substituents. While Bakers' Yeast has been used for the enantioselective reduction of carbonyl compounds, little attention has been paid to the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds with Bakers' Yeast. Nitro group of m-bromonitrobenzene was selectively and rapidly reduced to corresponding amino derivative in good yield by Bakers' Yeast in basic solution. Furthermore, nitrosobenzene was rapidly reduced to aniline in good yield by Bakers' Yeast under neutral condition. In this paper, we wish to report a rapid and simple reduction of m-bromonitrobenzene and nitrosobenzene to the corresponding amino derivatives using Bakers' Yeast. And the effects of various agents, temperature and pH on the reduction will be discussed.

This paper investigates the physical properties of organic cotton staple yarns manufactured by ring and siro spinning methods as well as analyzes the physical properties of fabric specimens knitted with staple yarns made by these two methods. The breaking stress and evenness of organic ring staple yarns showed the same level for the Japanese specimens as the control yarns; in addition, the same coefficient for the friction of the manufactured yarns and Japanese specimens was also shown. These results makes it possible to manufacture organic staple ring yarns from organic cotton fibers. The tenacity and breaking strain of siro staple yarns were higher than ring staple yarns. The evenness and friction coefficient of siro staple yarns were lower than the ring staple yarns; in addition, hairiness and the number of siro staple yarns was significantly lower than the ring staple yarns. The dimensional stabilities of knitted fabrics by 20 Ne and 30 Ne siro staple yarns were superior to ring staple yarns. The color fastnesses of washing, perspiration and abrasion of knitted fabrics by two spinning methods showed the same level as the 4.5 grade; however, the light fastness of knitted fabric by siro staple yarns was superior to ring staple yarns. It was shown that the siro spinning method (using eco-friendly organic cotton fibers) was applicable to a high sensible knitted garment that overcame drawbacks of organic fibers related to shrinkable properties after washing and low color fastness to light.

This paper investigated wear comfort property of heat storage knitted fabrics for high emotional garment. For this purpose, ZrC imbedded PET knitted fabric was prepared and various physical properties such as thermal, wicking and drying characteristics were measured. In addition, far-infrared emission characteristics of ZrC imbedded PET was analysed and tactile hand property and dye affinity of ZrC imbedded knitted fabric were also studied in comparison with regular and other commercial heat storage PET knitted fabrics. It was observed that Zr imbedded amount in the yarn was 19.29% by ingredient analysis and far-infrared emission energy was $3.65{\times}10^2W/m^2$, emissivity was 0.906 at the range of wavelength $6{\sim}20{\mu}m$. It was found that maximum heat flow (Qmax) of ZrC imbedded PET knitted fabric was lower than that of regular PET one and warmth keepability rate was higher than that of regular PET one, which means ZrC imbedded PET have heat storage property. Drying property of ZrC imbedded knitted fabric was better than that of regular PET one due to heat by far-infrared emitted from ZrC in the core of filament. It revealed that wicking property of the ZrC imbedded fabric was not influenced by far-infrared emission, but affected by fibre physical properties. Tactile hand property of ZrC imbedded knitted fabric was not influenced by imbedding ZrC in the filament but affected preferably by structure of knitted fabric. Dye affinity of ZrC imbedded PET knitted fabric was less influenced by dyeing temperature and time than regular PET knitted one.

Purpose - This study seeks to investigate the determinants of global sourcing intention in clothing sewing industry, in particular with its focus on women's knit wear production. Design/methodology/approach - This study collected a unique set of qualitative data through 31 in-depth interviews with fashion brands, promotion agencies, and sewing factories between July 2023 and October 2023. In addition, it analyzed the dataset using the MAXQDA to complement the research findings. Findings - We have two findings. First, the interviewees commonly mentioned the following factors as reasons for considering global sourcing: the human factors(aging of skilled technicians and labor shortages), the financial factors(gap in production unit prices at home and abroad), the relational factors(lack of novelty), and the physical factors(loss of production infrastructure and network), while the human factors(skilled workforce), the production factors(delivery date and product quality), and the relational factors(timely communication and mutual trust) as reasons for continuing domestic sourcing. Additional code analysis of interview also supports this finding. On the other hand, there was also a subtle difference between buyers(brands) and suppliers(promotion agencies and processing plants), and buyers consider the exact delivery date critical so that they could see trend-sensitive women's knit wear on time, and suppliers took production costs, labor costs, and labor shortages, which are financial factors, more seriously. Research implications or Originality - This study provides a richer and more balanced view of existing literature, which has generally tended to introduce global sourcing across the clothing industry despite the existence of various diversity within the industry. In addition, through qualitative research, we introduce that the sewing industry is carried out according to complex factors, and by revealing and categorizing the determinants of global sourcing, we supplement the existing research on the clothing sewing industry centered on survey. On a practical note, this study introduces that there is a difference in view of domestic sourcing and global sourcing between buyers(brands) and suppliers(promotion agencies and sewing factories), suggesting practical implications for revitalizing networks and deriving win-win cooperation network models among members in the future.
