There are two ways to process bamboo to make the plant into a fibre
Processing of Plant
Mechanically
19 Febrauary 2009
Chemically
[email protected]
23
Mechanical Processing of Bamboo • Similar to flax processing – “natural bamboo fiber” • Retting – loosens internal stalk structure • Enzymatic process (days to weeks) • Chemical process (boil in mild acid/alkali) • Breaking - separates fiber bundles from stalk • Scutching- removes extraneous material • Hackling – separates and aligns fibers • Labor and time intensive • Produces linen-like fabrics. 19 Febrauary 2009

24
Chemical process(1) 1.Preparation: Bamboo leaves and the soft, inner pith from the hard bamboo trunk are extracted and crushed; 2. Steeping : The crushed bamboo cellulose is soaked in a solution of 15% to 20% NaOH. T = 20 ~ 25 C Time= 1~ 3 hours to form alkali cellulose. 19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
25
Chemical process(1) 3. Pressing: The bamboo alkali cellulose is then squeezed mechanically to remove excess NaOH solution. 4. Shredding: The alkali cellulose is mechanically shredded to increase surface area and make the cellulose easier to process. 19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
26
Chemical process(1) 5. Ageing: „ It is then left to dry for 24 hours. During this process, the shredded alkali cellulose is allowed to stand in with the oxygen of air. Because of high alkalinity. „ The alkali cellulose is partially oxidized and degraded to lower molecular weights. This degradation is to be controlled to produce chain lengths shorter enough to give proper viscosities in the spinning solution.
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
27
Chemical process(1) 6. Xanthation: Carbon disulfide is added to the bamboo alkali cellulose to sulfurize the compound causing it to jell. Any remaining carbon disulfide is removed by evaporation due to decompression and cellulose sodium xanthate is the result. 19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
28
Chemical process(1) 7. Dissolving: A diluted solution of NaOH is added to the cellulose sodium xanthate dissolving it to create a “viscose” solution consisting of about 5% NaOH and 7% ~ 15% bamboo fiber cellulose
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
29
8. Spinning: „
After subsequent ripening, filtering and degassing, the viscose bamboo cellulose is forced through spinneret nozzles into a large container of a diluted sulfuric acid solution which hardens the viscose bamboo cellulose sodium xanthate and reconverts it to cellulose bamboo fiber threads which are spun into bamboo fiber yarns.
19 Febrauary 2009

30
Chemical Processing of Bamboo (2) • Similar to lyocell • N-methylmorpholine–N-oxide (NMNO) added to bamboo cellulose– cellulose dissolves • Extrude into water/NMNO solution – fiber forms • Water wash – removes NMNO • NMNO recovered and reused (>99% recovery) • Produces fabrics similar to rayon from bamboo.

Tips in bamboo yarn producing process 1)
when bamboo yarn is producing. It is recommend a high humidity(65%-70%) and a low temperature (25° C). If bamboo fiber is too dry before feeding, a vapour pretreatment to improve its humidity.
2) As bamboo fiber shows weak cohesion, we recommend adopting high coefficient of twist. Low card web tension and low roving tension is recommended. 19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
32
Tensile strength 3) In order to control hairiness in spinning, by using high-quality steel ring and ring traveler. 4) As bamboo fiber’ tensile strength is low, it recommend that using yarn count ranging from Ne8 - Ne60. When using 50s-60s count pure bamboo yarn, it suggest doubling the yarn. 19 Febrauary 2009

33
Nanotechnology in bamboo clothing industry „ „
„
It based on a bamboo clothing line made from nanoparticles of bamboo charcoal. Bamboo is dried and burned in 800 °C ovens until it is reduced to charcoal. The bamboo is processed and converted into fine nano particles which are then embedded into cotton, polyester or nylon fibers. This conventional fiber yarn that contains trapped bamboo charcoal nano particles is then woven into fabrics … mostly socks and blankets now. The active bamboo charcoal ingredients will only remain active in the clothing for about six months of active use. 19 Febrauary 2009

34
Knitting Due to low tensile strength mostly knitted product are made from bamboo. „ No special technique is required. „
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
35
Bamboo fabric weaving 1)
A twist coefficient in the range of 350 to 410 turns per meter..
2) As bamboo yarn’s moisture regain rate and elongation is relatively high, you should maintain even and relatively low tension during the process of warping and sizing of the yarn.

Bamboo in Denim In Rana Textile Mill in 2008 „ 50%/ 50% cotton/bamboo was used in denim on request of a Turkish customer. „ 20,000 metre is processed. „ It price was 3.1 $/m as that of cottton. „
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
37
Pretreatment and Dyeing 1) Because bamboo fiber is regenerated cellulose fiber, it is sensitive to both acid and alkali. So you must notice the volume of alkali in pretreatment. 2) Because bamboo fiber fabric has lower wet tensile strength, you should adopt lower tensions or negative tensions during dyeing & pretreatment. 3) Recommending to choose reactive dye-stuffs in dyeing. Reactive dye can react with bamboo fiber molecular under weak alkali condition. 19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
38
General principles in dyeing & pretreatment Light-singeing: A mild condition in singeing in order to avoiding damaging bamboo fiber „ Enzyme-desizing: A high desizing rate above 80%. „
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
39
„
Light-Scouring: For 100% bamboo fiber fabric/yarn you may skip the process of scouring, because pure bamboo fiber contains little trash and pigment. If you need to make sure the volume of caustic soda does not exceed 10g/L.
„
Bleaching: The processing should be made in of the specification and thickness of fabrics
„
Light – mercerizing: Because bamboo fiber owns an excellent natural shine it does not need mercerizing. However you can use lightmercerizing so as to improve absorbing rate of dyes.
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
40
Dyeing Bamboo fiber’s wet tensile strength is low. It swells acutely in water. Bamboo textiles are suitable to be dyed on jigger or winch loose rope dyeing machine. „ Note : In dyeing, the volume of caustic soda can not exceed 25g/L. The temperature can not exceed 100° C. In drying you should keep low temperatures and maintain low tensions. „
19 Febrauary 2009

41
Finishing „
„
Concerning finishing of bamboo fabrics and bamboo/cotton blended fabrics, normally intermittent drying should be applied. It suggest not adopting direct drying such as through single cylinder or multi-cylinder dryers. If the temperature is not controlled well,direct drying may cause many defects such as fabric yellowing, harsh hand feeling, weft sloping and high shrinkage.
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
42
Finishing „
„
As result, we choose stentering frame and rotor drummer dryers to dry, to fix width and over feed-in (over 5%-10%), temperature should be kept around 130° C. For drying dyed yarns, it is suggested to use infrared loose drying in order to ensure even evaporating , upgrade hand feeling, avoid cohering and tenacity decreasing which may affect the subsequent processing.

Processing flow (1) Dyed fabrics—stentering & shape setting --softening(steeping 2 times & press 2 times) ---over-feed drying ---finished fabrics (2) Dyed yarns --- softening ----infrared loose drying---finished yarns.
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
44
Softening process „
Softening process should be applied to dyed bamboo fabrics and bamboo/cotton blended fabrics. For dyed bamboo yarn, a little silicon oil should also be added in order to improve its smoothness and weaving ability.
19 Febrauary 2009
[email protected]
45
The purpose of using softening agent • Reduce friction and improve its smoothness. • Uniform bamboo fiber’s surface exertion; improve fabric tensile strength and abrasive resistance • improve bamboo fiber’s elasticity and drapability. • softening agent need to be able to prohibit bamboo textile reacting with dyes in dyeing process. • softening agent need to be able to prevent bamboo textile yellowing in drying process.
