The Himalayan nettle (Girardinia diversifolia) plant has been traditionally used to make various fibre-based products such as sack, rope etc. but with this fast-moving technological era, new developments and researches are required to meet the demand of present so that it could also be made commercially viable. Presently UV radiation causes various skin problems including skin cancer. The present study explores the fabric properties of woven fabrics made of Himalayan nettle (Girardinia diversifolia) fibre for new end uses to protect the skin from harmful UV radiation. Nettle Yarn was procured from Kraftloom Overseas Private Limited, Dehradun. Twill and crepe weave fabric were prepared using handloom at Kumaon woollens, Haldwani. Physical properties and Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) of the developed woven fabric were studied at textile testing lab of G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand. Based on results it was found that properties of nettle woven fabric like thickness, weight, thread count and cover factor affected the UPF of the nettle fabric. It was also found that ultraviolet protection properties of nettle woven fabric could be enhanced through weave variation. Ultraviolet protection properties of fabric made of nettle fibre were explored and reported for the first time which could be utilised for different UV protection products such as curtains, blinds and jackets. Further natural dyeing of developed fabric was also done in another part of the study to maximise the UV protective properties of the fabric.

利用喜马拉雅荨麻(Girardinia diversifolia)植物开发紫外线防护纺织品:传统植物的新视角

喜马拉雅荨麻(Girardinia diversifolia)工厂传统上用于生产各种纤维基产品,例如麻袋,绳索等。但是,在这个飞速发展的技术时代,需要新的发展和研究来满足当前的需求,因此它也可以在商业上可行。目前,紫外线辐射引起各种皮肤问题,包括皮肤癌。本研究探讨了由喜马拉雅荨麻(Girardinia diversifolia)制成的机织织物的织物性能。)新的最终用途纤维,可保护皮肤免受有害的紫外线辐射。Nettle Yarn是从Dehradun的Kraftloom Overseas Private Limited购买的。斜纹织物和绉纹织物是在Haldwani的Kumaon羊毛厂使用手织机制备的。在北阿坎德邦潘塔纳加尔的GB潘特农业技术大学的纺织品测试实验室研究了所开发机织织物的物理性能和紫外线防护因子(UPF)。根据结果​​,发现荨麻机织织物的性质,例如厚度,重量,线数和覆盖系数影响了荨麻织物的UPF。还发现可以通过编织变化来提高荨麻机织织物的紫外线防护性能。首次探索并报道了由荨麻纤维制成的织物的紫外线防护性能,该性能可用于不同的紫外线防护产品,例如窗帘,百叶窗和夹克。在研究的另一部分中,还对发达的织物进行了进一步的自然染色,以最大程度地提高织物的紫外线防护性能。
