Composite Wadding of Down Fibers Encapsulated in Fabrics
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Composite wadding of down fibers was developed in the study by encapsulating in MB nonwovens. This study has a value to be published in the Materials journal, however, I recommend its publication after considering the following recommendations:
- It is mentioned in the heading melt-blown nonwovens were studied. However, in the text, woven fabrics are also used. the heading should be rewritten.
- Line 13, 190, 192: The "and" should not be used as the first word of the sentence.
- Line21: The reference style should be corrected.
- The introduction should be reorganized.
- The novelty should be clearly mentioned in the last paragraph of the introduction.
- There should be a space between values and units. The manuscript should be checked and corrected.
- Line 75: The name of the lab or device should be written. The words like our, their, we should not be used.
- The meltblowing procedure and parameters should be written clearly.
- In table 2: what is the unit of density? What is the meaning of 150x150?
- Figure 1: It should be drawn again, should be more clear and more compact.
- Line 110: What is the cross-sectional area of the test samples.
- The number of the equations should be corrected.
- The air permeability of woven fabric is better than the meltblown sample of N2 (Figure 2). In this study, the authors focused on the meltblown one. What is the advantage of using a meltblown sample?
- Line 182: What is the full name of CLO. It should be written.
- Figure 6: The parameters for SEM are not given. They should be written in the materials and method section.
- The difference in fractal dimension is just 1.5% higher (table 4) for the meltblown sample. Is it meaningful to say it is higher? In conclusion, the following sentence "The number of fibers drilling 233 out of melt blown nonwovens is only about 1/4 of that of the woven cloth" was written. The 1/4 is not given in the result part. The calculation should be shown clearly.
- For the results section, the obtained results should be supported with literature.
