Surprisingly designed fabric British designer develops eco-friendly clothes

40 "Cement" skirts purify two square meters of space in one minute, a cup of coffee slag to make two pieces of coffee yarn T-shirts What fabric clothes are the most comfortable and decent? I am afraid that even the answers given by fashionistas are hard to include the following three materials: cement, coffee and tea.

"Cement" skirts act as air purifiers Recently, fashion designers from the University of Sheffield, London Fashion Institute and the University of Ost-Erstershire in the UK jointly developed the world's first clothing with air purification function - "She". The fabric is ductile "transparent" cement.

"Transparent" cement can absorb pollutants in the surrounding air. It has been applied to buildings that protect air quality in Europe. However, as a clothing material, it is an unprecedented practice. Some experts pointed out that "transparent" cement is actually sprayed concrete, which is a mixture of cement and gravel as its main components.

According to the designer, “she” contains titanium dioxide, which can remove organic compounds such as nitrogen oxides after reacting with pollutants in the air under sunlight catalysis. Tony Lane, a professor at the University of Sheffield, said that “she” can reduce the amount of nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide in the surrounding area by 65%. Helen Story, a designer at the London Fashion Institute, said, "Putting this kind of clothes on the road will clean the air and give the people around it cleaner air."

At present, "she" is only a "highly experimental" conceptual model. Designers say that wearable clothing will be designed as soon as possible, and optimistically stated that in just 1 minute, 40 people wearing such clothes can purify two squares. Meter space air.

"She" has a stylish look and wears it enough to step onto the red carpet to attend the costume ceremony. However, this skirt still has many problems to be solved. For example, cement is cement after all. No matter how “flexible” it is, the comfort of the cement will be greatly reduced. And after the air is purified, is the clothes dirty? Over time, the personal image and health situation will be greatly impaired.

Sunscreen odor for coffee yarn Compared to “she” for “cement” material, Taiwanese textile company Singtex has developed a lot of comfortable coffee jersey fabrics. Named S. Cafe's fabric uses recycled coffee grounds, which is a kind of fabric that is made by adding coffee grounds to the perspiration fibers through special processing techniques. The coffee grounds are carbonized at a high temperature of 160°C to 180°C, and after they are drawn, they become yarns.

The clothes woven from coffee grounds not only dry faster, but also prevent UV radiation. Moreover, the ability to suck off odors is super strong, and its rich surface pores can absorb locked gas molecules. In the summer season, wearing a coffee jersey, not only does the sunscreen absorb sweat but also removes sweaty odors.

However, does the coffee slag needed to make a piece of clothing consume a lot of coffee beans? This worry is superfluous. Because the coffee grounds left after making a cup of coffee can do two T-shirt size clothes.

The tea shirts crossed the strong scientists of the Imperial College in London, England, in cooperation with the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in the United Kingdom to develop a garment that is extremely light and heavy like leather and textile. This fabric has been used to make shirts, jackets, dresses and shoes. The British call it a tea shirt because it is made from tea.

Tea-shirts are very practical and have become "new" clothes after simple treatment such as dyeing and melting. The inventors believe that this innovative fabric will lead the future direction of the textile industry, while traditional raw materials such as cotton, wool and leather will be subject to restrictions on use. Tea shirts are made of waste green tea water, sugar and other nutrients. The mixture stimulates the growth of bacteria of the genus Acetobacter and thus grows cellulose filaments. Under the effect of cellulose, the tea shirt crossed through the solid.

After the tea shirt is washed and dried, it will become transparent. Professor Paul Freeman, a molecular biologist at the Imperial College in London, said, "This kind of clothes is leather-like after being dried, so it can't be torn."

However, wearing a tea shirt on the street, a strong smell may attract the attention of the passers-by. After all, fungus breeding continues, and it will take time to overcome this problem. However, with the depletion of natural resources, the market prospect of this kind of biological fabric is extremely impressive.
