BioPiezo - Biobased piezofibres for technical textiles

The development of high tech and high value applications for bioplastics may be one key to accelerate growth of the bioplastics sector. We aim to develop one such application: biobased piezoelectric fibres (piezofibres) for use in…
Project

tExtended – Knowledge based Blueprint for Extended Textile Circularity

The accumulation of textile waste is a global challenge that requires efficient recycling solutions, as it is estimated that less than 1% of textile waste is currently being recycled as a secondary textile raw material. tExtended …

DoubleBio - Biobased and biodegradable textiles

The project DoubleBio aims to develop a textile fibre which is biobased and biologically degradable in sea and land. The fibre will be especially suitable for use in nonwoven single-use textiles such as agricultural textiles, pac…
Project

Closed-loop recycling of wool/synthetic blend textiles

Textile production of today almost exclusively uses virgin raw materials. A lot of the textiles, especially clothing, are only used for a short period of time whereafter they become waste. This project aims to close the loop, by …

Capillary rheometer

A capillary rheometer is used to measure a material's flow properties at high shear rates. The results can be used for both material development and to predict a suitable processing window in extrusion, injection moulding, or fibr…

Pilot scale melt spinning of multi-component textile fibres

RISE in Mölndal has a pilot scale melt spinning equipment that can produce textile fibres from thermoplastic polymers. The melt spinning line is equipped with four extruders allowing to combine up to four different polymers in eac…
Expertise

Textile traceability

Methods for robust tagging of textile materials, where the tagging contains information on for example materials composition and origin, will be increasingly valuable for improved collection and sorting systems. This is relevant f…
Expertise

E-textiles

Electronic textiles, or e-textiles, is a multidisciplinary research area with applications such as soft and wearable sensors or energy harvesting. RISE can offer research and development ranging from materials selection and fibre …
Expertise

Melt spinning

RISE has broad expertise in melt spinning, from the production of textile fibres using bio-based or recycled raw materials, to the development of high-performance and specialty fibres such as electrically conductive or piezoelectr…

Recycling and Traceability in Focus at this Year's Techtextil

Last week, it was time for Techtextil in Frankfurt, a major textile fair held every other year focusing on technical textiles. Material developers, fiber spinners, weavers, and machine manufacturers from various parts of the indus…

Converting used wool fibres to artificial silk

Textile industry leaves a considerable footprint on our planet. One reason is its linear economy structure, where new raw materials pass through the production and use phases only to end up on ever-growing landfill sites. Technolo…

Turning ocean plastics into new textiles by melt spinning

Textiles are the most exciting material one can possibly work with – or so some of us think! Starting from eternally long and super-thin fibres, we can produce fabrics that provide warmth, protection and make us feel good-looking.…
