  Viscoelastic Behavior and Wrinkle Formation in Cotton- Polyester Garments: A Data-Driven Approach for Textile Care

  By Patil Naomi Sachin, Vrishti Garg, Manoj Soni, Khushi Kumari, Aliza

  Abstract: This study investigates the wrinkle behavior of cotton-polyester blended fabrics by analyzing data from over 1,200 store-handled garments. Integrating concepts from polymer chemistry and computer vision, it aims to establish a smart textile care framework based on fiber-specific wrinkle characteristics. The research identifies how cotton’s hydrophilic and non-elastic structure results in increased wrinkling, while polyester’s thermoplastic and crystalline properties enhance wrinkle resistance. Elastomeric fibers like Lycra contribute to wrinkle recovery …

  By Lakshman Kumar Dogiparthi, Balakrishna Talamanchi, Mynam Harika, Vannappagari Prabhash, Raichur Ruhinaz, Kora Keerthi, A. Jayanth, P. Amitha, Bezawada Siva Nagaraju, Guggulotu Vishnu Tulasi Naik

  Abstract: Nanotechnology allows the handling of materials in the 1–100 nm range, where distinct physicochemical phenomena, including quantum effects and higher surface-to-volume ratio, enable disruptive uses in pharmaceuticals and biomedicine. Significant challenges in solubility, stability and targeted biodistribution of therapeutics can be overcome by incorporating nanostructured polymers and polymer-based composites into drug delivery systems. PLGA nanoparticle and other nanocarriers, such as PLGA micelles, dendrimers, and hydrogels, have revealed promising effects on …
