Their efforts focused on developing regenerated protein fibers, including soy, zein, and casein, to provide comparable benefits to natural protein fibers, such as lustrous appearance, warmth, and a soft feel. The popularity and cost-effectiveness of mass-produced petroleum-based synthetic polymer fibers during World War II diminished interest in developing soy protein fiber. Realizing the ecological degradation caused by fossil fuels and their derived products, a renewed drive exists to explore bio-based waste materials like soy protein. As a fast-growing crop, soy provides abundant byproducts with opportunities for waste valorization. The soybean oil extraction process produces soy protein as a byproduct, which is a highly tunable biopolymer. Various functional groups within the soy protein structure enable it to acquire different valuable properties. This review critically examines scholarly publications addressing soy protein fiber developmental history, soy protein microstructure modification methods, and soy protein fiber spinning technologies. Additionally, we provide our scientific-based views relevant to overcoming the limitations of previous work and share prospects to make soy protein byproducts viable textile fibers.}, number={4}, journal={Fibers}, publisher={MDPI AG}, author={Tahir, Muneeb and Li, Ang and Moore, Marguerite and Ford, Ericka and Theyson, Thomas and Seyam, Abdel-Fattah M.}, year={2024}, month={Mar}, pages={31} } @article{zeng_moore_rothenberg_2024, title={Promoting Sustainable Consumption: The Roles of Consumers' Domain-Specific Environmental Knowledge and Personality Traits}, volume={16}, ISSN={["2071-1050"]}, DOI={10.3390/su16020512}, abstractNote={Environmental sustainability, a pivotal facet of sustainable development, is explicitly emphasized and advocated. The textile and apparel (T&A) industry, which is resource-intensive, faces challenges in transitioning toward an ecologically friendly market. The shift toward sustainability is causing significant changes in consumer lifestyles and cultural practices, resulting in increased uncertainty in pro-environmental behaviors. This study adapts the environmentally responsible behavior (ERB) model to investigate how consumers’ subjective and objective domain-specific environmental knowledge (SUEK and OBEK) and personality traits—including personal environmental responsibility (PER), eco-centric and anthropocentric environmental beliefs (EEBs and AEBs), and internal and external environmental loci of control (IN-ELOC and EX-ELOC)—influence sustainable consumption intention (SCI) for T&A products. The data from 212 completed online survey questionnaires were analyzed using a two-stage partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach. The findings reveal that participants’ SUEK related to the T&A industry, and their PER and EEBs positively influence their SCI for T&A products. This research contributes to the literature on consumer SCI in the T&A industry and adds value to the existing ERB model, providing insights for brands, retailers, educators, policymakers, and stakeholders striving for a more sustainable industry.}, number={2}, journal={SUSTAINABILITY}, author={Zeng, Lian and Moore, Marguerite and Rothenberg, Lori}, year={2024}, month={Jan} } @article{chakraborty_moore_parrillo-chapman_2022, title={Automatic defect detection for fabric printing using a deep convolutional neural network}, volume={15}, ISSN={["1754-3274"]}, DOI={10.1080/17543266.2021.1925355}, abstractNote={ABSTRACT Defect detection is a crucial step in textile and apparel quality control. An efficient defect detection system can ensure the overall quality of the processes and products that are acceptable to consumers. Existing techniques for real-time defect detection tend to vary according to unique manufacturing processes, focal defects and computational algorithms. Although the need is high, research related to automatic printed fabric defect detection processes is not prevalent in academic literatures. This research proposes a novel methodology that demonstrates the application of convolutional neural network (CNN) to classify printing defects based on the fabric images collected from industries. The research also integrated visual geometric group (VGG), DenseNet, Inception and Xception deep learning networks to compare model performance. The results exhibit that the VGG-based models perform better compared to a simple CNN model, suggesting promise for automatic defect detection (ADD) of printed fabrics that can improve profitability in fashion supply chains.}, number={2}, journal={INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FASHION DESIGN TECHNOLOGY AND EDUCATION}, author={Chakraborty, Samit and Moore, Marguerite and Parrillo-Chapman, Lisa}, year={2022}, pages={142–157} } @article{cho_moore_2022, title={The effect of technology driven mergers and acquisitions on firm performance in the US textile industry}, ISSN={["1754-2340"]}, DOI={10.1080/00405000.2022.2124654}, abstractNote={Abstract To maintain the pace of innovation and survive in today’s competitive global market, a growing number of textile companies are acquiring technology assets strategically through mergers and acquisitions (M&A). This study examines how technology-driven M&A affects firm performance in the U.S. textile industry using U.S. patent and stock market data spanning a 35-year timeframe (1980–2015). The study primarily compares technology-driven M&A stock performance with its non-technology-driven counterpart. The results suggest that technology-driven M&A lead to significantly improved stock performance immediately following the M&A announcement, whereas non-technology-driven M&A negatively impact acquiring firms’ stock market performance in both the short and long terms.

However, low-cost apparel production is often accompanied by labor rights violations. A persistent pattern of labor rights violations exists in the global apparel supply chains, including minimum wage violations, unpaid overtime, forced overtime, worker abuse, restricting workers’ unions, and many other violations. Research suggests that low-cost pressures restrict factory level resources, which often leads to labor rights violations in global apparel supply chains. To date, academics and practitioners remain unaware of the actual cost of implementing labor rights standards in factories. We sought to establish a baseline taxonomy of the fundamental cost-bearing activities required to provide a safe and ethical factory workplace. A Delphi survey was adopted to capture data from an expert group of experienced factory compliance auditors in Asian apparel production.

However, the fundamental understanding of the emerging DPT market remains unexplored due to its novelty. This study aims to identify DPT diffusion patterns over the past decade in the U.S. market and establish a predictive user profile employing social media-based analytics along with data mining and traditional statistical modeling. A proxy variable is used to measure likely adoption which reflects an S-shaped diffusion curve consistent with Diffusion of Innovations Theory. Additionally, the outcome profile suggests that likely DPT adopters reside in locations that reflect higher levels of education (bachelor’s degrees or higher), relatively young populations (i.e. between 19–34 years of age), proportionately higher incomes generated from art and design occupations, but with lower household annual incomes.}, journal={INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT}, author={Yu, Yanan and Chapman, Lisa Parrillo and Moore, Marguerite M.}, year={2021}, month={Dec} } @article{yu_moore_chapman_2021, title={Social network analysis of an emerging innovation: direct-to-garment printing technology}, volume={25}, ISSN={["1758-7433"]}, DOI={10.1108/JFMM-03-2020-0053}, abstractNote={PurposeThe study primarily aims to examine an emerging fashion technology, direct-to-garment (DTG) printing, using data mining-driven social network analysis (SNA).

Despite widely publicized factory safety failures, reactionary regulatory efforts remain inadequate. This situation is commonly attributed to unyielding downward price pressure imposed on factories by Western brands. To address this problem, this research develops a comprehensive cost model for low‐cost apparel production following a total cost of ownership approach. Comprehensive production data for cotton T‐shirts from nine Bangladeshi factories provide the basis for model construction. The model reveals that materials generate the bulk of production costs (77%) for a T‐shirt, in contrast to worker wages which generate only 2 percent of the total production cost per unit (e.g., 16 cents out of a $8USD retail price). The TCO provides fundamental insights, grounded in real data, to guide policy and regulation among stakeholders in high‐risk, low‐cost supply chains.

The workflow included determination of the colorant and substrate combination, color calibration, CAD file, and the necessity of pretreatment. In Stage Two, a visual assessment instrument and protocol were established to evaluate the acceptance of replicated ink-jet printed fabric. The visual assessment and protocol were designed to evaluate the acceptance of the ink-jet printed sample to fully replicate the screen-printed sample via seven measured aspects. These seven aspects include: perceived color difference, lightness difference, overall color, scale, line quality, visual texture, and overall appearance.
