On the Application of Bamboo Fiber in Home Furnishing Design

In this paper, the application of bamboo fiber material in home furnishing design was studied with the intention of providing solutions for defects of traditional material in terms of its air pollution, ineffective modeling and destructive power over environment. With proper application of properties of bamboo fiber material based on its highlighted superiority, the environmentally-friendly and healthy interior space will be created.

Nano Materials Used in Industrial Design

This article introduces Nano materials exploitation and application, especially about achievements of Nano materials in industrial design field and forecast for its developing trend and market prospect in the future.

The Research of the Application of Smart Coatings on Architectural Ornaments

The understanding of the coating material is the premise and guarantee of conducting architectural ornaments. However, the traditional ornaments have the disadvantages of high pollution, monotonouscolor, weak functionality and poor formative nature. The paper is aimed at researching about smart coatings and its application on architecture ornaments and trying to solve these problems. As an important material, it has great significance for improving people’s living environment and protecting environment.

Analysis of the Textile Materials and Art Forms of Minorities in Yunnan

The minorities in Yunnan are quite skilled at weaving and embroidering techniques, and they boast the unique materials and special textile art form. With the plant material resources in Yunnan, they are able to create numerous kinds of patterns and drawings on the textile fabric, surrounded by the local rural flavor and intense ethnic characteristics. However, with the social and economic development, together with the opening to the outside world, this ethnic textile activity which reserves much of the primitive style and national characteristics has shrunk and stalled at this moment, turning into the modern manufacturing of commercialization. It is a necessity for the textile art design to embody distinctive nationality and local characteristics before opening to the world. At present, it is of great value to study the textile materials and art forms of the minorities in depth and figure out the whole process from the acquisition and preliminary processing of textile raw material to spinning, weaving, printing and dyeing.

Study on Application of Intelligent Chromic Material to the Interior Design

Continuous research and innovation on intelligent material in recent years have greatly contributed to it applied into in every field and holding an irreplaceable position. The intelligent chromic material, one kind of intelligent materials, can make a reaction contingent on its located environment factors, besides, having abundant colors and abilities of dynamic changes with a strong decoration and innovation. The paper mainly focuses on study and analysis on application of intelligent material to the interior design, and attempts to bring new functions and stronger adaptive capacity to environment to the interior space, which is devoid for the traditional decorative materials, for the purpose of amelioration of peoples life quality.

Application and Research on Luminescent Coating in Interior Design

As a new-type material, luminescent coating has received increasingly extensive application in modern life. The varieties of luminescent coatings gradually increase with the progress of science and technology, of which each kind of them shows its own unique property. This thesis researched on the different properties of various luminescent coatings so as to make them into rational use on the interior interface, thus achieving the more appropriate and safer use in interior design for the sake of beautification space, economizing and environmental protection.

Application Study of Costume Materials in Interior Decoration

Through the successful application of the home improvement materials like ceramics and PVC materials in the costume design, the thesis analyzed costume materials’ adhibition in the interior decoration and introduced the nanofiber materials, milk fiber, phase-change materials as well as high-tech fabrics into the home fabric decorations so as to improve the comfortableness, health and security of home lives; and it also accorded with the green initiative and organic theme of the social development in the future.

The Use of Super Absorbent Polymer for Interior Decoration Materials

This paper is mainly about the use of super absorbent polymer for interior decoration materials. It introduces the super absorbent polymer and interior decoration materials. The structural properties make super absorbent polymer have an excellent ability to absorb water and keep it inside the materials. The analysis of technology, market, operation and cost show that super absorbent polymer is the best waterproof /dampproof materials in the interior decoration.

Application Study on Biological Materials in Interior Design

The recognition for materials is the prerequisite and guarantee of Interior design, but traditional materials in the Interior have high pollution, flat colors, disadvantages such as poor functionality and styling, in the paper, we mainly study on biomaterials and its application in interior design, and try to solve these problems, it has important significance for improving peoples living conditions and environmental protection as an important material.

Preparation and Characterization of Novel Self-Cleaning Glasses with TiO2 Coatings

Common glass for architecture had only one function, i.e., transparency and the requirement for indoor health made “environmental protection type” novel glass necessary. In the present study, a novel self-cleaning glass was prepared by sol-gel method. To form self-cleaning glass, common glass was adopted as the foundation base and TiO2 coatings were cover its outside surfaces. The novel glass had little change in shape but alteration to slightly white compared to common glass, thanks to white TiO2. The self-cleaning glass could reduce formaldehyde concentration of air from more than 160 mg•m3 to 0.4 mg•m3 within 60 h, while the common glass could cut down to ca. 30 mg•m3 and reaching equilibrium before 24 h. The removal of formaldehyde by common glass could be owing to adsorption action and slightly gradation by ultraviolet light, and the removal by self-cleaning glass could be mostly assigned to photodegradation by TiO2 when ultraviolet light irradiation. Besides, the self-cleaning glass exhibit 74.99% and 91.60% anti-bacteria rate to Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, respectively, when common glass was chosen as control. In brief, the self-cleaning glass was proved excellent to remove formaldehyde and inhibit bacteria. As a result of the non-preference of the photodegradtion and anti-bacteria by TiO2, it was believed the self-cleaning glass could remove almost all the kinds of indoor organic gases and inhibit almost all the kinds of bacteria, including some pathogens. The self-cleaning glass had great potential in interior finish application meeting the challenge for environmental protection.
