A broad term for fabrics with a fancy-type weave made on a Jacquard or dobby loom.
Industry:Textiles
Laboratory device used to determine the fastness of a colored fabric to exposure to light. The test pieces are rotated around a light source simulating the sun’s rays at 45°N latitude in July between the hours of 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Fabrics are rated by visual comparison with a gray scale according to degree of fading.
Industry:Textiles
Resin or latex treatment for scrims used in coated fabric manufacture to stabilize the scrim for further processing.
Industry:Textiles
The angulation induced between a yarn and woven fabric via the weaving or braiding process.
Industry:Textiles
The maximum acute angle of a single weaving yarn’s direction measured from a plane parallel to the surface of the fabric.
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
Fabrics used in the stabilization of embankments and the containment of silt run-off from erodible slopes. In embankment stabilization, the fabric functions as a filter medium behind stabilizing rip-rap revetments. In siltation control, the fabric acts as a filter to contain silt while allowing excess water to drain freely. In turf reinforcement, the mat is used to retain soil while allowing roots and stems to grow through. In fabric-forming systems for the construction of revetments, a double-layer, water-permeable fabricis positioned, then pumped full of structural grout. These systems are alternatives to rip-rap.
Industry:Textiles
In this test for flame resistance, a specimen is mounted at a 45° angle and exposed to an open flame for a specific time. This test measures the ease of ignition and rate of burning of the samples.
