This study focuses on the optimal washing conditions for dry cleaning recommended fabrics to minimize dimensional changes using wet cleaning. We suggest water-based alternatives to a perchloroethylene based cleaning process. Wool and rayon fabrics were laundered under various washing conditions and then air-dried for 24hrs. All specimens were extended after spinning and shrunk after drying. This is probably because the fibers were swollen and extended by wetting. The wool fabrics were shown to be acutely influenced by washing temperature and mechanical force. The optimal washing conditions for wool fabric to minimize the dimensional change implied a normal washing temperature and minimized mechanical force. For rayon specimens, dimensional change by a hand wash showed a remarkable decrease compared with a machine wash. Rayon fabric seemed to be influenced by the quantity of water contained in the fabric after spinning and washing time. Therefore, the desirable washing conditions for rayon fabric are to reduce the time required for washing and to increase the spin speed.

Calcium alginate fiber were prepared by wet spinning of various conditions, including different concentrations of sodium alginate solution and $CaCl_2$ concentrations for coagulating the fiber through an absorption of calcium ion. The absorption of calcium ion during the coagulating step lead to solidify the fibers by the replacement of sodium ion with calcium ion to produce some crosslinking. The concentration of calcium ion in the calcium alginate fiber seems to be well related to the mechanical and physical property of the fiber, such as fiber strength moisture regain, and degree of swelling. The tensile strength of calcium alginate fiber was increased along with the increasing amount of sodium alginate solution. According to EDS analysis, 7 wt% $CaCl_2$ coagulation bath resulted in more calcium ion in the fiber compared to 3 wt% $CaCl_2$ coagulation bath. The decomposition temperature of calcium alginate fiber was $199^{\circ}C$, which $14^{\circ}C$ higher than that of sodium alginate.

This article describes the metal ions adsorption of chitosan fibers. The chitosan fibers were manufactured by wet spinning using 2% acetic acid as solvent, 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide as non solvent, and 4%chitosan solution as a solvent. The adsorption characteristics of chitosan fibers towards 100ppm solutions of various metal ions such as Cu(II), Cd(II), Cr(III), Hg(II) were examined at different pH value by ICP-Atomic Emission Spectrometer. The adhesiveness of metallic ions to the chitosan fiber were increased with the increase of pH and the decrease of denier. On the other hand, from pH4, chitosan fiber that is immersed in metal ion aqueous solution of Cu(II) and Cd(II) became homogeneous solution because is dissolved. The adhesiveness of metallic ions to chitosan fiber were found to increased in a sequence of Hg(II)> Cr(III)> Cu(II)> Cd(II). The antimicrobial characteristics of the chitosan fiber by adhered metal ions, virgin chitosan fiber, and cotton fiber were evaluated. The antimicrobial activity of the fibers were increased with the decrease of denier.

In this paper, the regenerated silk fibroins were dissolved in LiBr aqueous solution with different dissolution temperature and time, and the effects of the dissolution condition on the regeneration yield, molecular weight, wet spinnability, and electrospinnability of regenerated silk fibroin were investigated. The regeneration yield, molecular weight distribution, and wet spinnability of regenerated silk fibroin were nearly affected by the dissolution temperature and time. However, the electrospinning performance of silk fibroin was influenced by the dissolution condition implying the electrospinning of silk fibroin is more sensitive process than the wet spinning in the range tested in this study. While $25^{\circ}C$ of dissolution temperature resulted in a good electrospinnability of regenerated silk fibroin, the electrospinnability was slightly deteriorated when silk fibroin was dissolved at $60^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours. Also, though the fiber diameters of electrospun silk fibroin produced by the dissolution at $25^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours and 24 hours were 443 and 451 nm, respectively, that at $60^{\circ}C$ for 5 min was reduced to 411 nm. The fiber diameter was more decreased to 393 nm when the dissolution time increased up to 6 hours at $60^{\circ}C$.

Polytrimethylene Terephthalate (PTT) is an eco-fiber with good elastic properties; however, it requires more detailed studies related to spinnability according to blending of various kinds of fibers. The evolution of spinning technology was focused on improved productivity with good quality; in addition, air vortex spinning was recently invented and applied on the spinning factory as the facility with good productivity and quality. More detail spinning technology according to the blending of various kinds of fibers on the air vortex spinning system is required to obtain good quality yarns for high emotional fabrics. In this paper, the physical properties of air vortex, compact and ring staple yarns using PTT/wool/modal blend fibers were investigated with yarn structure to promote high functional PTT that includes fabrics for high emotional garments. Unevenness of air vortex yarns was higher than those of compact and ring yarns; in addition, imperfections were greater than those of compact and ring yarns, which was attributed to a fascinated vortex yarn structure. Tenacity and breaking strain of air vortex yarns were lower than those of compact and ring yarns, caused by higher unevenness and more imperfections of air vortex yarns compared to compact and ring yarns. Vortex yarns showed the highest initial modulus and ring yarns showed the lowest ones which results in a stiff tactile feeling of air vortex yarns in regards to the initial modulus of yarns. Dry and wet thermal shrinkages of air vortex yarns were lower than ring yarns. Good shape retention of vortex yarns was estimated due to low thermal shrinkage.

Air filters are being used in countless places from industrial sites to everyday life. The spread of the COVID-19 virus, which started in 2019, is disrupting people's daily lives, and the importance of air filters as a basic means to prevent the spread of these diseases is further highlighted. In this study, the purpose was to develop another type of air filter media with excellent barrier properties that can replace PP meltblown nonwoven fabrics widely used commercially due to its excellent electrostatic properties, differential pressure and filtration efficiency. Therefore, wet-laid nonwoven for air filters were manufactured using plexi-filaments formed through flash spinning and having various fiber diameter from hundreds of nanometers to tens of micrometers, and its applicability as an air-filter media was investigated compared to the meltblown nonwoven. As a result of the performance evaluation, it was found that the filtration efficiency and barrier performance at 0.3㎛ was superior to that of the meltblown nonwoven of the same weight, although the differential pressure was high due to morphological properties of the plexi-filament.

For polyacrylonitrile (PAN) based carbon fiber (CF) process, we developed a lab scale wet spinning line and a continuous tailor-made stabilization system with ten columns for controlling temperature profile. PAN precursor was spun with a different spinning rate. PAN spun fibers were stabilized with a total duration of 45 to 110 min at a given temperature profile. Furthermore, a stabilization temperature profile was varied with the last column temperature from 230 to $275^{\circ}C$. Stabilized fibers were carbonized in nitrogen atmosphere at $1200^{\circ}C$ in a furnace. Morphologies of spun and CFs were observed using optical and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. Tensile properties of resulting CFs were measured. The results revealed that process conditions such as spinning rate, stabilization time, and temperature profile affect microstructure and tensile properties of CFs significantly.

In the dry-jet-wet-spinning process of a hollow fiber membrane, the polymer solution is pumped into a coaxial tube, jet spinneret. The threadline emerging from the spinneret is stabilized by an internal coagulating medium(liquid or gas) as it emerges from the jet orifice. The nascent hollow thread is further stabilized in a quench bath as shown in Fig. 1. In this scheme, three mechanism of formatiota(temperature gradient, solvent evaporation, and solvent-nonsotvent exchange) can be combined. The changes which promote stabilization often play a dominant role in determining the ultimate fiber wall structure as well. Hence, in pratice, hollow fiber stabilization and development of membrane structure are commonly inseparable. However, fiber dimension(the inside diameter and wall thickness of the hollow fiber) is mainly a rheological problem and is determined by dope pumping rate, spinneret diatance from the coagulation bath, inner coagulant flow rate, and fiber draw-rate. Besides rheological phenomena play a prominent part in the final properties of the hollow fiber.

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)는 압전성을 나타내는 대표적인 고분자로 1960년대부터 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. PVDF는 반결정의 고분자로써 5가지의 결정 구조(${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, ${\gamma}$, ${\delta}$, 그리고 ${\varepsilon}$형)로 구성되어 있다. ${\alpha}$형과 ${\delta}$형 결정은 전기적으로 반응하지 않는 무극성 결정구조이나 ${\beta}$형, ${\gamma}$형 그리고 ${\varepsilon}$형은 전기적으로 반응하는 극성 결정구조이다. 그 중에서도 ${\beta}$형 결정구조는 트랜스 형 분자 쇄가 평행으로 충진 된 형태로서 PVDF 단위체가 갖는 영구 쌍극자가 모두 한 방향으로 배열되어 있는 구조이기 때문에 자발 분극이 커지게 되고 압전성을 나타내게 된다. 일반적으로 ${\beta}$형 결정구조는 연신을 통한 ${\alpha}$형 결정구조의 변환을 통하여 얻을 수 있고, 연신 후 후처리 공정을 통해 그 양을 증가시킬 수 있다. 습식방사로 제조된 PVDF 섬유는 응고욕에서 극성 용매의 확산 메커니즘에 의해 ${\beta}$형 결정구조가 형성되는 장점을 가지고 있지만 극성 용매가 빠져나감과 동시에 섬유 고화가 진행되기 때문에 용매의 확산 경로가 섬유 내부 기공으로 남게 되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이 기공은 폴링(Poling) 공정에서 전기장에 의한 분극을 방해하여 그 효과를 감소시키는 역할을 한다. 또한, PVDF 섬유가 압전 특성을 필요로 하는 응용분야에 사용되기 위해서는 섬유 가공 후에 전극이 반드시 부착되어야 하는데 섬유 형태로 제조된 PVDF에 전극을 형성하기는 매우 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 압전성을 갖는 PVDF 섬유를 습식 방사와 건식 방사의 혼합 공정으로 제조하여 기공 문제를 해결하였고, 전극이 섬유 내부에 삽입된 Core/Shell 형태의 PVDF 섬유를 제조하여 까다로운 전극형성 문제를 해결하였다.
