Manufacturing and Functions of Bamboo Charcoal/Stainless Steel Composite Fabric

Abstract

In this study, the covered yarn, composed of stainless steel wires as the core and bamboo charcoal roving as the sheath, is made on a ring spinning machine and then knitted into bamboo charcoal/stainless steel fabric by an automatic 14-gauge horizontal knitting machine. According to the test results, both far infrared emissivity and the anion count of bamboo charcoal/stainless steel fabric increase with an increase in bamboo charcoal content.
