＂Light Of Textile＂ Revisits Wuhan Textile University

 During the symposium, Wang Dong said that the "Light of Textile" China Textile Federation Science and Technology Award has far-reaching significance for colleges and project researchers. First of all, this is undoubtedly a recognition and honor. They feel honored to be recognized by the China Textile Industry Federation and the industry. Secondly, the project award provides financial support for scientific research and relieves the funding pressure in the research process. Third, awards are catalysts and touchstones. In the textile and clothing industry, the Science and Technology Award has a certain authority and wide recognition, effectively promoting the transformation and application of the project achievements. For example, he said that the projects that have won the "Light of Textile" Science and Technology Award of China Textile Federation over the years have been effectively transformed and applied with enterprises. At the same time, since the launch of the award-winning project in 2024, he has received an invitation for cooperation from an enterprise. The other enterprise is attracted by the innovation and practicality of the project through the promotion of scientific and technological awards, and hopes to carry out in-depth cooperation with the award-winning team.

 Wang Dong said that the transformation rate of scientific research projects of Wuhan Textile University has maintained a high level, which is mainly due to the fact that the university has always adhered to the demand orientation, highlighted its characteristics, set questions by enterprises, and solved problems by the university, forming a good mechanism for the combination of production, teaching and research.

　At the meeting, Wang Wenwen reported the project information such as the research and development background, general idea, innovation point and related technical content, application and promotion, and economic benefits of the project.

　It is reported that the project, guided by solving the comfort performance of fibers, has developed a new technology for the preparation of heat and moisture responsive polyester fibers and comfort intelligent adjustment fabrics. It is the first time that the fabric has the function of dynamic opening and closing of human skin pores. The deformation torque of fibers under heat and moisture stimulation is 5-10 times higher than that of conventional fibers; A polyester fabric structure with intelligent adjustment of heat and moisture comfort suitable for different fields was designed. The change rate of air permeability and moisture permeability in wet state was 2.5 and 1.5 times higher than that of the internationally advanced hygroscopic fast drying fabric, respectively. The dynamic adjustment of the body temperature difference of 3-5 ° C was realized, which subverted the heat and moisture transmission mechanism of existing fabrics by improving the fiber moisture absorption or increasing the specific surface area to accelerate heat loss and sweat evaporation, Realized the innovative transformation from one-way to two-way intelligent regulation mechanism; It has synergistically improved thermal and wet comfort, dyeability and wearability, overcome the problems of uneven dyeing, poor color fastness and morphological stability of fabrics caused by the new fiber structure, promoted the upgrading of polyester fiber products, and promoted the high-quality development of the textile industry. The project has been granted 27 invention patents, 6 utility model patents and 14 papers, realizing the industrialization of heat and moisture responsive polyester fiber and comfort intelligent regulation polyester products.

　 With regard to issues such as how to maximize the role of science and technology awards and improve the efficiency of project achievements transformation, the delegates at the meeting discussed the ownership of the final grantor of "Textile Light" science and technology award funds, the feasibility of leveraging social funds with the help of industrial funds, attracting science and technology financial forces to intervene, and whether the number of "Textile Light" education projects can be expanded.

　 Ye Zhimin said that as a public welfare organization in the industry, the Textile Light Science and Technology Education Foundation has always insisted on promoting scientific and technological progress, talent cultivation, and industrial upgrading in the industry, and has continued to provide financial support for industry science and technology award projects. For more than a decade, scientific and technological achievements have blossomed everywhere. He mentioned that the foundation is also continuing to innovate, hoping to give full play to the advantages of the platform, make good use of the value of the platform, and use every fund on the cutting edge to promote the key links and key projects of the industry development, so as to jointly promote the sustainable and healthy development of the textile industry.

"Of every three mobile phone screens used by consumers, one uses our nanofiber membrane technology in the production process; and behind the pure taste of each Budweiser beer, our fiber materials play a key role in the filtration process." Wang Dong introduced that he won the "Textile Light" award in 2018 The project of the first prize of China Textile Union Science and Technology Award - "Key Technology of Thermoplastic Polymer Nanofiber Industrialization and Its Application in the Field of Liquid Separation" and its technological innovation and process. The project not only provides domestic and foreign enterprises with high-performance nanofiber membrane products, but also drives the development of related industrial chains.

　 In 2021, the project that won the first prize of the "Light of Textile" China Textile Union Technological Invention Award - "Key Technology for Manufacturing Flexible Pressure Sensing Materials and Devices of Multistage Structural Fiber Assemblies" has also achieved application transformation. Flexible pressure sensing materials of multi-level structural fiber assemblies can be used in sports insoles, smart gloves, health monitoring belts and other products, and can monitor users' body data in real time, such as gait analysis, pressure distribution, heart rate changes, etc., to provide users with personalized health management and sports guidance. Sports insoles and other products made of this material that can monitor body data have passed the European standard test and achieved application and promotion.

 Wang Dong, who grew up in Yizheng and is familiar with Yizheng chemical fiber, has deep feelings for the textile industry. When he introduces textile related technologies, he can always talk freely. At Wuhan Textile University, Wang Dong and his team members are committed to interdisciplinary research on fiber materials. They explore how to combine traditional textile technology with modern science and technology to create new materials that are environmentally friendly and have high added value. Wang Dong said that through scientific and technological innovation, they hope to inject new vitality into the textile industry and promote the industry to develop in a more high-end and sustainable direction.

 During the visit, Ye Zhimin highly praised the research results of Wang Dong's team. He pointed out that the Textile Light Science and Technology Education Foundation will continue to support forward-looking and innovative research projects, help researchers translate theory into practical applications, accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and actively promote the scientific and technological progress, talent growth and industrial upgrading of the textile industry.
