Sericulture and Silk Production


Book Description

This book describes the stages of mulberry bush growing, silkworm egg production, silkworm rearing, silk cocoon reeling and silk fabric production. Ideal for fieldworkers, development agencies and those starting small-scale manufacture or attempting to improve or extend manufacture (Published in the Small-scale Textiles series).




Mulberry


Book Description

Mulberry (Morus spp.) is an important horticultural plant in the sericulture industry. It belongs to the family Moraceae. The leaf of mulberry is used to feed the silkworm Bombyx mori L. It is also used as a fodder. Due to its economic and agricultural importance, mulberry is cultivated in many parts of the world. An estimated 60% of the total cost of silk cocoon production is for production and maintenance of mulberry plants. Therefore, much attention is needed to improve the quality and quantity of mulberry leaves. It is vital to increase the production of superior quality mulberry leaves with high nutritive value for the sericulture industry. Although a lot of research is going on in mulberry, very little effort has been made to compile the results of this research in a single book. This book provides an update of recent research works going on in this plant. It describes the taxonomy, conservation of germplasm, genetic diversity of various mulberry species, application of breeding techniques to improve the quality of mulberry, in vitro conservation, application of tissue culture techniques to improve mulberry species, production of haploids and triploids in mulberry and improvement of abiotic stress adaptive traits in mulberry with relevance to adaptiveness to global warming.




Advances in Silk Science and Technology


Book Description

The remarkable properties of silk fibres have gained them a prominent place in the field of technical textiles. Advances in Silk Science and Technology explores recent developments in silk processing, properties and applications. Techniques for manufacturing spider silk are also discussed and the current and future applications of this fibre are reviewed. Part One focuses on the properties and processing of silk from both silkworms and spiders. It addresses recent advances in our understanding of the properties of silk and offers systematic coverage of the processing of silk from spinning through to finishing, as well as an analysis of quality testing for silk fibres, yarns and fabrics. Part Two then addresses important applications of silk from silkworms and spiders, and includes chapters on the use of silk in polymer matrix composites and in different kinds of biomaterial. The book concludes with a chapter on developments in the use of silk waste. - Reviews the properties of silk from both silkworms and spiders - Offers systematic coverage of the processing of silk from spinning through to finishing - Cover a range of applications, including on the use of silk in polymer matrix composites and in different kinds of biomaterial




The Complete Book on Textile Processing and Silk Reeling Technology


Book Description

Textile industry in India is the second largest employment generator after agriculture. It holds significant status in India as it provides one of the fundamental necessities of the people. Textile processing is one of the important industries related with textile manufacturing operations. It is a general term that covers right from singeing to finishing & printing of fabric apart from giving huge value-addition at every stage of processing. A number of new innovations have led to the industrialization of the textile industry. The silk reeling techniques are excellent methods to produce superior grade raw silk which is used by the textile industry to produce exotic fabric. Silk reeling is the final and purely commercial phase of sericulture. It is concerned with unwinding of the silk filaments of the cocoon. The sericulture industry is agro based and flourishing mostly in rural areas. More than 50 per cent of silk is reeled by a villager using country charka which forms the cottage industry. Silk provides much needed work in several developing and labour rich countries. The textile industry is primarily concerned with the production of yarn, and cloth and the subsequent design or manufacture of clothing and their distribution. The raw material may be natural or synthetic using products of the chemical industry. Some of the fundamentals of the book are chemical modification of textile celluloses, fabric varieties, silk as a textile fibre, silk reeling technology, silk re-reeling technology, fluidized beds to textile processing, high alpha cellulose pulp for viscose rayon, reaction of cellulose with cross linking agents, textiles adhesives, flame retardants for textiles, halogenated flame retardants, antinomy and other organic compounds, surfactants, chemical used in textiles, etc. This book contains fabric varieties, silk reeling technology, cellulose ethers, and crease resistance of cellulose textiles, tone and shade control in textile, textiles adhesives, flame retardants for textiles, chemical used in textiles. This book will be resourceful to upcoming entrepreneur, Seri culturist, existing industries, technical institutions etc. TAGS Silk Reeling, Silk Reeling Methods, Silk Reeling Process, Sericulture, Textile Processing and Silk Reeling, Silk Reeling Industry, Sericulture Industry in India, Silk Textile Industry‎, Silk Reeling Machine, Profits in Silk Reeling, Silk Reeling Unit, Silk as Textile Fibre, Fabric Varieties, Chemical Modification of Textile Celluloses, Silk Reeling Technology, Silk Re-Reeling Technology, Fluidized Beds to Textile Processing, Cellulose Ethers, Nitrocellulose, Dissolving Pulp for Rayon Industry, Anti-Crease and Antishrink Finishes for Viscous Rayons, Crease Resistance of Cellulose Textiles, Heat Treatment of Resin-Treated Cellulosic Textiles, Tone and Shade Control in Textiles, Chlorine Retention of Resin Treated Cellulosic Fibres, Textiles Adhesives, Flame Retardants for Textiles, Halogenated Flame Retardants, Antinomy and Other Organic Compounds, Surfactants, Chemical Used in Textiles, Textile Manufacturing, Textile Manufacturing Process, Textile Industry, Textile Processing, Chemical Processing of Textiles, Textile Production Process, Manufacture of Alkylolamides, Formulation of Shampoos, Manufacture of IGEPON T, Manufacture of Alcohols, Manufacture of Alkyl Sulfates, Manufacture of Olefin Sulfonates, Formulation of Heavy Duty Detergents with Olefin Sulfonates, Manufacture of Fatty Acid, Manufacture of Alkyl Phenol, Manufacture of Alcohol Ether Sulfates, Manufacture of Fatty Amine Oxides, Formulation of Fatty Amine Oxides, Textile Processing Chemicals, Textile Processing Equipments, Textile Processing Technology, Textile Processing Units in India, Textile Plant, Textile Processing Plants, Printing Impressions, Npcs, Niir, Process Technology Books, Business Consultancy, Business Consultant, Project Identification and Selection, Preparation of Project Profiles, Startup, Business Guidance, Business Guidance to Clients, Startup Project, Startup Ideas, Project for Startups, Startup Project Plan, Business Start-Up, Business Plan for Startup Business, Great Opportunity For Startup, Small Start-Up Business Project, Best Small and Cottage Scale Industries, Startup India, Stand Up India, Small Scale Industries, New Small Scale Ideas for Silk Reeling, Textile Processing Business Ideas You Can Start on Your Own, Indian Small Scale Silk Reeling, Guide to Starting And Operating Small Business, Business Ideas for Textile Processing, How to Start Silk Reeling Business, Starting Silk Reeling, Start Your Own Silk Reeling Business, Textile Processing Business Plan, Business Plan for Textile Processing, Small Scale Industries in India, Silk Reeling Based Small Business Ideas in India, Small Scale Industry You Can Start on Your Own, Business Plan for Small Scale Industries, Set Up Textile Processing, Profitable Small Scale Manufacturing, How to Start Small Business in India, Free Manufacturing Business Plans, Small and Medium Scale Manufacturing, Profitable Small Business Industries Ideas, Business Ideas for Startup
