Innovation & sustainability in the contemporary fashion
Liliana Rubio
Polymer Business Intelligence, Brazil
On the dynamic business scenario, be functional, smart and interactive are the most valuable asset to become a reference in
our markets. The global smart textile market promotes the implementation of nanotech and biocomposites projects in this
field. Please note the market by moving beyond traditional path of what means value and fulfilling business future. We can identify
the strategic alliance between textile industry and several markets such as polymer, cosmetic, health, architecture and fashion. For
several years, while these "S-textile" program have been able to go beyond the original objectives and is seeking its way towards
industrialization and mass production for enhancing the breakthrough of intelligence textile systems. Every innovative initiative are
committed in improving the convergence between industries and the leading edge of the textile market; in this scenario, the priority
is deep understanding of megatrends and new segments. We discuss about the most important trends that will define the architecture
future of Smart Textile world.
Metallic biomaterials and surface functionalization of Ti based alloys for medical applications
Vijay Kumar Srivastava
Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), India
Metallic biomaterials are widely used in the manufacturing of medical devices for hard tissue replacement such as pace maker
cases and screws to assist patients when their body parts are damaged. The basic information of three main categories of metallic
implant biomaterials, stainless steel, cobalt and titanium (Ti)-based alloys are introduced in this paper. In addition to mechanical
performance, the other essential requirements that are needed to be posted by these metallic biomaterials are also explained. Various
advantages of using these metallic biomaterials as an implant and their current applications also are reviewed. The main issue during
implantation of a biomaterial (i.e., Ti implant) and its alloys is inflammatory of surrounding tissues and eventually it leads to implant
failure even when the biomaterial has shown excellent properties. This review paper covered some of the recent notable surface
functionalization techniques and the obtained results contributed to biomedical field to resolve the problems. It firstly explained that
the biocompatible metal layer (tantalum) is deposited onto bare Ti and Ti substrate with the nanoporous Ta-incorporated surfaces
using various methods of deposition to improve the performance in terms of corrosion resistance and biological performances.
Attachment of hydroxyapatite (HA) onto Ti surface is one of the ways of getting rid of the negative effects of Ti. However, HA has
poor mechanical properties and low bond strength with Ti. Thus, a composite coating that can improve the lack of HA properties
was formed. Moreover, the last investigations related to incorporating antibacterial nanoparticles and drugs with Ti implants are
presented, as well. The overall results indicated that the antibacterial performance of Ti implants improved with attachment of
incorporating antibacterial agents onto it. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and biocompatible polymers are integrated onto Ti to improve
the cells adhesion and growth as well as reducing the toxicity which will lead to the longevity of implants. The investigator studies are
revealed that the different surface properties on Ti will affect the absorption of protein and increase of biocompatibility.
