Resin or latex treatment for scrims used in coated fabric manufacture to stabilize the scrim for further processing.
Industry:Textiles
The details of structure of fabric. Includes such information as style, width, type of knit of weave, threads per inch in warp and fill, and weight of goods.
Industry:Textiles
A planar textile structure produces by interlacing yarns, fibers, or filaments.
Industry:Textiles
Glass fiber is incombustible and will tolerate heat up to 1000°F without material damage. Potential strength is not realized in woven fabrics or even in yarns, because the fiber is brittle and fracture points may develop, but nevertheless, very high tensile strength is obtained in woven fabrics, and is retained at elevated temperatures. The fiber originally was difficult to color but methods have been developed to accomplish this. Moisture absorption is low. Electrical and insulation resistance is high.
Industry:Textiles
A process for producing a pattern on yarns, warp, fabric, or carpet by any of a large number of printing methods. The color or other treating material, usually in the form of a paste, is deposited onto the fabric which is then usually treated with steam, heat, or chemicals for fixation.
Industry:Textiles
The relatively low tension applied to remove kinks and crimp when mounting a specimen preparatory to making a test or to a textile processing operation, etc.
Industry:Textiles
1. A decrease in pressure that is caused by friction between a flowing liquid and a constricting container. The pressure drop is increased by a reduction in diameter of the container. 2. The change in pressure across a filter.
Industry:Textiles
Of an insulating material, the ratio of the power in watts dissipated in a capacitor in which the material is dielectric, to the product of the sinusoidal voltage and current expressed in effective volt-amperes.
Industry:Textiles
1. A thin, naturally tan-colored silk fabric with a knotty, rough weave.
2. A cotton fabric made from yarns spun from fine-combed staple and finished with a high luster. This fabric is used for underwear.
3. Fabrics like cotton pongee made from manufactured fibers.
Industry:Textiles
The ratio of the volume of air or void contained within the boundaries of a material to the total volume (solid matter plus air or void) expressed as a percentage.
