Cellulose fibers against climate change
There will continue to be unavoidable CO2 emissions that have to be compensated. The DITF are developing textile materials for active CO2 capture from the air as part of a research project.
DITF publication awarded Editor's Choice
The editorial board of the 'materials journal' has selected the article "Melt-Spinning of an Intrinsically Flame-Retardant Polyacrylonitrile Copolymer" by Simon König et al. as Editor's Choice Paper.
Active ingredient depots in porous fibers
In the research project "Textile-based drug delivery systems", drug delivery fibers were developed at the DITF for application in regenerative medicine. This could support the therapy of chronic wounds in the future.
Cellulose chitin fibers - new materials for medical technology
Chitin makes insect wings flexible. This polysaccharide could soon be used in dressing materials in medicine.
MICROFACTORY 4 Fashion
On the way to Industry 4.0: DITF coordinate the MICROFACTORY, a fully networked, integrated production chain from design to the finished product.
