"Textile manufacturing (or textile engineering) is a major industry."
The use of technology in the manufacturing, design and use of textiles and clothing, including 3D printing, smart fabrics, and wearable technology.
Fibers: The different types of natural and synthetic fibers used in textile production, their properties and how they can be blended to create specific characteristics such as durability, breathability, and softness.
Textile manufacturing processes: The various stages involved in the production of textiles including spinning, weaving, dyeing, finishing, and printing.
Garment production: The stages of garment production from pattern making, cutting, sewing, finishing, and quality control.
Textile and clothing quality testing: The various tests that are carried out on textiles and clothing to ensure that they meet industry standards, including durability, flammability, and colorfastness.
Sustainable textiles: Sustainable production processes, ethical sourcing of materials, and eco-friendly materials that can help reduce the environmental impact of the textile industry.
Fabric dying and printing: The different methods used for dyeing and printing fabrics, such as screen printing, digital printing, and block printing.
Apparel design: The different types of apparel design, including casual wear, formal wear, sportswear and accessories. The process of designing, developing and producing different types of apparel.
Textile and Clothing Business: The different areas of the textile industry, including retail, wholesale, and manufacturing, along with marketing strategies, pricing, and inventory management.
Technical Textiles: The textiles used for industrial or technical purposes, such as medical textiles, protective textiles, and geotextiles.
Textile and clothing culture and history: Studying the cultural and historical significance of textiles and clothing, including traditional costumes, embroidery, and weaving techniques in different cultures.
Fiber manufacturing technology: This involves the production of fibers used to make textiles, such as cotton, wool, linen, polyester, and nylon.
Spinning technology: This involves turning fibers into yarns through various techniques, such as ring spinning, open-end spinning, and air jet spinning.
Weaving technology: This involves the interlacing of yarns to create woven fabrics, such as plain weave, twill weave, and satin weave.
Knitting technology: This involves the creation of fabrics through the interlocking of loops of yarn, such as flat knitting, circular knitting, and warp knitting.
Dyeing technology: This involves the application of color to textiles through various techniques, such as vat dyeing, yarn dyeing, and piece dyeing.
Printing technology: This involves the application of designs onto textiles through various techniques, such as screen printing, digital printing, and block printing.
Finishing technology: This involves the treatment of textiles to enhance their properties, such as softening, waterproofing, and flame retardancy.
Apparel manufacturing technology: This involves the production of clothing and other textile products, such as sewing, cutting, and pressing.
Smart textiles technology: This involves the integration of electronics into textiles to create new functionalities, such as temperature regulation, light emission, and sensing.
"It is largely based on the conversion of fibre into yarn, then yarn into fabric."
"...converted into useful goods such as clothing, household items, upholstery and various industrial products."
"Cotton remains the most widely used and common natural fiber making up 90% of all-natural fibers used in the textile industry."
"People often use cotton clothing and accessories because of comfort, not limited to different weathers."
"...not limited to different weathers."
"Different types of fibers are used to produce yarn."
"There are many variable processes available at the spinning and fabric-forming stages..."
"...coupled with the complexities of the finishing and colouration processes..."
