A quantitative method to compare the effect of thermal aging on the mechanical performance of fire protective fabrics
Download2018-09-04
Dolez, Patricia I., Namrata, Tomer S., Malayati, Yassine
A method has been proposed to provide a means to compare in a quantitative and comprehensive way the mechanical performance of fire protective fabrics under long‐term thermal exposure. These high‐performance materials experience a reduction in their performance overtime due to the various...

Braun, Christina, Nam, Seo Lin, de la Mata, Paulina A., Harynuk, James J., Chung, Hyun-Joong, Dolez, Patricia I.
Accelerated hydrothermal aging of a commercial polyimide film was studied via ultimate tensile strength and FTIR spectroscopy. The significance of hydrolysis of the imide functional groups was determined using chemometric analysis of ATR-FTIR data. The results suggest the potential of polyimide...

Thermal Effusivity Assessment of Sportswear Fabrics in the Dry State: Stacked and Air-Hoop Methods
Download2024-01-01
Islam, Md. Rashedul, Gholamreza, Farzan, Golovin, Kevin, Dolez, Patricia I.
Thermal effusivity is an essential fabric characteristic that influences the perception of coolness or warmth due to the exchange of thermal energy between the human body and the cloth layer when they come into contact. In the current study, thermal effusivity measurements were conducted on a...
