Open lecture: Resource Efficiency and Recycling in Textiles: Exploring Pathways to More Sustainable Materials and Processes

Lecturer: Junchun Yu, Associate Professor of Textile Technology

Junchun Yu will speak about the most recent developments in digital printing and textile recycling, the obstacles in technological development, and about alternatives in solutions. Recent developments in digital inkjet printing promoted resource efficiency, which reshapes textile printing and functionalization in research and industrial practice. Digital printing offers significant advantages – not only in resource-saving, but also in enabling advanced performance.

This is one of two lectures, the other one is held at 14:00–15:00 by Li Guo, Associate Professor of Textile Technology: Textile-Based Electrodes for sEMG: Towards Smart Textile Systems for Home Rehabilitation
