2019 organizing committee of Shanghai International TextileGraduate Summer School, Writing: Jie Jia Translation: Weihao Luo

On July 10, 2019, the 2019 Shanghai InternationalTextile Graduate Summer Schoolis still in full swing, with students' interest in learning and professors'enthusiasm for teaching. Today, Professor Hao Fong from the South Dakotainstitute of Mining and Technology, Professor Tushar K. Ghosh and ProfessorMartin W. King from North Carolina State University gavelectures on the basic theories and latest developments of advanced textiletechnology and advanced textile materials.

In the morning, Professor Hao Fong continued to teachstudents about electrostatic spinning. Professor Fong described in detail theexperimental process of electrostatic spinning raw materials polymerizationinto spinning process to prepare nanofibers. By quoting the abundantcharacterization pictures of his own research results, he described the magicof electrostatic spinning objectively and let students appreciate the greatpotential of high-strength and high-mode carbon nanofibers in aerospace andmilitary equipment. Later, Professor Martin W. King, brought us someinformation about biomedical textile materials. He introduced theclassification of medical textiles by the FDA of the United States andintroduced the advanced achievements of various countries around the world. Thestudents were deeply attracted by the lively lecture style of the old scholar.

In the afternoon, Professor Fong continued the morningsession with an introduction to nanofiber applications including dental repairmaterials, medical supplementary materials and tissues, separation, hydrogenstorage and catalysis. At the end of the course, the Professor listed the applicationof electrostatic spinning carbon nanofibers in new energy, which aroused greatinterest of the students. After class, a heated discussion was held around theteacher. Professor Tushar K. Ghosh brought his third lecture, which introducedthe classification of fabrics and the various possible forms of compositefabrics, the characteristics, shapes and uses of leno fabrics, and brieflyintroduced the structure and process of tire cord, multi-layer fabrics andtriaxial fabrics. In the end, the function and development of geotextiles inconstruction and the broad application prospect were shown for students. Everyonewas actively involved and the atmosphere was lively.
