Reference number : GC-2017-Q2-00530, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Morris, Denis (Université de Sherbrooke), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : Quebec|Québec, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Engage Grants for Universities, program name french : Subventions d'engagement partenarial pour les universités, program purpose english : This project, conducted in partnership with FilSpec Inc., aims to characterize the optical properties and the_x000D_
heating power, under optical illumination, of a series of textile fabrics made from a blend of specialized yarns._x000D_
These specialized yarns contain a certain proportion of carbon black and mineral nanoparticles, which are_x000D_
responsible for their optical absorption in the visible and near infrared. Textiles with different combinations of_x000D_
regular and near-infrared sensitive fibers will be tested to assess the impact of these mixtures on their heating_x000D_
power._x000D_
Optical studies include measurements of transmittance and absorbance spectra in the 400 to 1500 nm range,_x000D_
under different illumination conditions. These measurements will be correlated with measurements of_x000D_
temperature change under illumination. An exploratory study of the dynamics of the self-heating phenomenon_x000D_
will be carried out using transient absorption measurements., program purpose french : This project, conducted in partnership with FilSpec Inc., aims to characterize the optical properties and the_x000D_
