From molecule to textile material
The Institute of Textile Chemistry and Chemical Fibers under the direction
of Prof. Dr. rer. nat. habil. Michael R. Buchmeiser deals with R&D
in terms of the production and modification of fibers and textiles made
of synthetic and natural polymers. The competences of the institute range
from the synthesis of polymers for the production of chemical fibers via
fiber production utilizing all important spinning processes, to textile
finishing for the production of textiles with special properties.
Unique characteristics of the institute are: complete production chain
of textile materials; expertise in all primary spinning technologies;
expertise in the use of nano-materials in textile and fiber applications;
functionalization and processing, from cellulose to fibers and coatings:
know-how in the field of physical treatment methods (plasma, UV and electron
beam hardening); integration in the material-scientific research of the
University of Stuttgart including MPG and FhG.
Business units:
- Intelligent materials and nanostructures High-performance
fibers, cellulose layers, nano-composites and intelligent functions
in fibers
- Chemistry, physics and technologies of fiber production
Synthesis of fibre polymers, cellulosic fibers, spinnability and fibre
properties, structural investigations into fibers
- Innovative textile finishing processes and chemistry of
technical textiles Optimisation of classic finishing processes,
environmentally-friendly finishing, plasma treatment, innovative dyeing
and printing processes, coating and laminating, surface modification
and functionalization, nonwovens, super-absorbers
- Polymer, fiber and textile analysis Processes of
physical and chemical analysis, fiber-specific testing technology
