Fluff (lint, fiber fly) generation, especially related to yarn structure, was investigated. Research centered on the fiber length related to fluff generation during the knitting process. Short fiber length composing yarn structure was a main source of the fluff shedding. High quality spun yarn with longer length of fiber was recommended to the high speed knitting industry in order to reduce process troubles such as yarn breakage, etc. but the cost is doubtable to the manufacturers. A trial to reduce the fluff trouble by using chemicals to hold the short fiber on the surface of the yam was suggested and the research showed a positive effect to the problem. However, another factors including a by-product of chemical residue and searching more feasible material need to be concerned for the future research.

In case of pure rubber materials, the initial quality of the rubber materials would be excellent, however, the durability against external impact might be poor. In order to overcome the relatively low durability, textile cord could be employed with silicone rubber. We have studied the improvement of heat-resistant adhesion properties of silicone adhesives between silicone rubber and PET fibers by applying various conditions including dip solution recipe. The silicone rubber used was a platinum catalyst curing type and platinum catalyst type silicone adhesive was used as an adhesive to obtain an optimum adhesive force. Furthermore, the bonding mechanism between silicone and PET fiber was established.

People's focus steadily shifted toward fashion as a popular aesthetic expression as their quality of life improved. Humans are inevitably drawn to things that are more aesthetically appealing. This human proclivity has resulted in the evolution of the fashion industry over time. However, too many clothing alternatives on e-commerce platforms have created additional obstacles for clients in recognizing their suitable outfit. Thus, in this paper, we proposed a personalized Fashion Recommender system that generates recommendations for the user based on their previous purchases and history. Our model aims to generate recommendations using an image of a product given as input by the user because many times people find something that they are interested in and tend to look for products that are like that. In the system, we first reduce data dimensionality by component analysis to avoid the curse of dimensionality, and then the final suggestion is generated by neural network. To create the final suggestions, we have employed neural networks to evaluate photos from the H&M dataset and a nearest neighbor backed recommender.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the prior knowledge, the market position and negative information of the alliance apparel product on consumer attitude including preference, purchase intent and utility. Smart wear with MP3 was selected for the alliance apparel product. Negative information was manipulated into two types-product related and brand related negative information. 251 subjects participated for the study. For the data analysis, reliability test and three way analysis of variance were conducted. The results showed that when the partner brand has the higher market position, subjects with high prior knowledge revealed preference for the alliance apparel product more. When the partner brand has the higher market position, the subjects who were given the negative information on the alliance apparel product reported preference and utility more than the ones who were given the negative information on the company. The findings of the study imply that apparel industries should make an effort to establish the positive corporate image as well as to produce high quality apparel product. Also marketers should provide consumers with the knowledge about brand new alliance apparel product.
