Characteristics of silk fibre
Physical Properties of Silk Fiber: Tenacity - The silk filament is strong. This strength is due to its linear, beta configuration polymers and very crystalline polymer system. These two factors permit many more hydrogen bonds to be formed in a much more regular manner. Silk loses strength on wetting. This is due to water molecules hydrolyzing a significant number of hydrogen…

Muslin fabric characteristics
The definitions of muslin vary greatly across the world, so I am going to do a whole post on the history and terminology of muslin. Lawn : Plain weave sheer fabric, originally of linen, but now also describes cotton fabrics. Lawn is made from very fine (thin) high thread count carded (prepared with a brush) yarns. Lawn is always made with an even weave using even yarns to produce…

Satin fabric characteristics
By Jyoung When talking about composites, it is important to remember that the material you are working with is fiber dominant. This means that when combining the fiber material and resin, the resulting composite part will largely take on the properties of the fiber material. So what does this mean for fabricators? In the simplest terms, the fiber you decide to use will have…

Characteristics of calico fabric
Calico Overview Calico is a fabric designed from unbleached cotton, using a plain weave and a low thread count. Calico is often not fully processed and can sometimes contain unseparated husk parts. Although calico is not as heavy or dense as denim or canvas, for instance, it is still a relatively cheap fabric because of its unfinished and undyed appearance. Calico Characteristics…

Characteristics of Spandex
– Samples of the above fabrics underwent dry, wet and full relaxation treatments and were subjected to standard atmospheric conditions prior to take the measurements. Washing was done in a front loading machine under normal agitation with machine 56 RPM. Each washing regime includes wash, rinse, spin, tumble dry steps. Washing temperature was set at 40°C and water intake for…

Rayon fibers characteristics
Most everyone is familiar with rayon. Fewer people are familiar with modal and lyocell. All three are called “cellulosic fibers, ” since the natural material that makes up the fiber is cellulose, a component of all plants. The cellulose is often derived from wood pulp, which has an average cellulose content of forty percent, and sometimes from bamboo. Hence, these fibers are…

Cotton characteristics
Cotton Classification Cotton classification, or classing, is the process of describing the quality of cotton in terms of such properties as grade, staple length and micronaire. In the past the classing of grade and staple was done by hand and eye. Now, all cotton quality characteristics are measured by instruments. Classification is essential to the cotton pricing systems and…

Plain weave characteristics
Plain weave is the most common and tightest of basic weave structures in which the filling threads pass over and under successive warp threads and repeat the same pattern with alternate threads in the following row, producing a chequered surface. They do not ravel easily but tend to wrinkle and have less absorbency than other weaves. The plain weave is variously known as ?calico?…

Characteristics of polyester
The objective of the present study was to investigate the engineering characteristics of polyester-reinforced cement-stabilized macadam (PETCSM). Shrinkage and mechanical tests were performed to analyze the water loss rate, shrinkage coefficient, compressive strength, cleavage strength, and compression rebound modulus of PETCSM as functions of the age and fiber content of the…
