Excellent Performance "Environmental Footprint" Low Sustainable Polyethylene Textile Fabrics Come Out
The rise of the textile and garment industry has played an important role in economic and livelihood development, but pollution problems have also followed. At this stage, the fashion industry (textile and garment industry) has become the world's second most polluting industry, second only to the oil and gas industry. This is because the textile manufacturing industry consumes a large amount of water, produces millions of tons of waste, and emits 5% to 10% of the global total of greenhouse gases each year. The maintenance of textile equipment usually consumes more energy and water than the manufacturing process.
This time, MIT scientists Svetlana Boriskina and her colleagues used standard textile industry processes and equipment to produce fibers, yarns and fabrics made of polyethylene (PE). This polyethylene is fully recyclable and is one of the most widely used plastics today. The research team found that even without any chemical treatment, these fabrics feature stain resistance, low water absorption and quick drying.
