Aronsson, J., & Björquist, S. (2015) Nya t-shirts av gamla jeans: Textila egenskaper hos en cellulosabaserad konstfiber tillverkad av dissolvingmassa framställd från bomull av textilt avfall (Dissertation).
QB1.1. What was the purpose of their thesis project?
Comment: To assess the textile qualities of fibres made from regenerated dissolving pulp from recycled cotton waste.
QB1.2. Why do the authors think that was important?
Comment: Since the demand for textile fibres is rapidly increasing and there is a huge need for sustainable fibres at the same time that textile waste is an ever growing disposable issue. It’s a classical win-win situation.
QB1.3. Do you think the chosen methods were relevant for their research question?
Comment: They seem very exhaustive. Mechanical characterization of the fabrics could have been relevant. In particular ball burst strength.
QB1.4. Do you think they accomplished what they set out to do?
Comment: Yes definitely. The strength for the textile waste yarn was even higher than the conventional reference yarns.
