Compactor n. A machine developed by Fabric Research Laboratories which is used to compact fabrics or to produce warp-stretch fabrics by means of forced crimp and/or shrinkage of the warp yarn. 

A three dimensional fabric drape representation was necessary for making appropriate evaluation of drape characteristics quantitatively. To overcome the limitations of two dimensional measurement of stifihess as the estimating parameter of drape, Chu et al. [22] in Fabric Research Laboratories developed the F.R.L Drapemeter and introduced dimensionless drape coefficient as a measure of drape. Later Cusick [23] developed a drapemeter based on similar principles to quantify drape of the fabric. This Cusick Drapemeter became a standard instrument for the drape measurement.

In this research study an ordered, mesoporous hybrid organosilica material incorporating a biphei rl moiety was fabricated. The polymerization process was surfactant-mediated to ensure uniform pore pattern and narrow pore size distribution. The synthesis of the organosilica precursor was done and investigated by the research group of the Inorganic Synthesis and Computational Research Laboratory of Institute of Chemistry, Diliman, Quezon City. 

Optical gene chips dense arrays of oligonucleotides have been successfully applied to detect transcriptional profiling and SNP discovery, where massively parallel analysis is required. However, the fluorescence-based readout of these chips involves not only highly precise and expensive instrumentation but also sophisticated numerical algorithms to interpret the data, and therefore these methods have been commonly limited to use in research laboratories. In this way, thin-film arrays of 14, 20, 25, 48 and 64 electrodes have already been fabricated [12,15,39,40,44,48], using lithographic techniques. Readout systems for these arrays based on electrical detection have also been developed.

In order to address the needs of field sensing of explosives, it is necessary to move away from traditional bulky electrodes and cells (commonly used in research laboratories). The exploitation of advanced microfabrication techniques allows the replacement of conventional ( beaker-type ) electrochemical cells and electrodes with easy-to-use sensor strips. Both thick-film (screen-printing) and thin-film (lithographic) fabrication processes have thus been used for high-volume production of highly reproducible, effective and inexpensive electrochemical sensor strips. Such strips rely on... 

Our results on the wettability of surfaces covered with highly fluorine-substituted alkyl groups stimulated several research laboratories to apply these surface properties to polymeric coating materials for textile fibers and fabrics as a means of imparting to them nonstaining, oil-, and water-resistant properties. Such products are becoming very prominent today and the contact angle is used for product control and trade specifications [1]. 

The compositions of the alloys employed in this investigation are shown in Table I. With the exception of X7005, the alloys were fabricated in Alcoa plants as 0.063-in. sheets and (in one case) 0.125 in. thick the X7005 was produced at the Alcoa Research Laboratories. 

The Polymer industry embraces the total spectrum of activities from petrochemical cracking, monomer preparation, polymer production and the fabrication of all manner of plastics and rubber products. In addition there is an increasing number of technical. service and or research laboratories being established by local and multi-national companies to support their efforts in Singapore and or throughout the Asia Pacific Region. 

A number of new cotton like rayons shown in Figure 10.91 was introduced to the textile market during the 1970s. One of these developments in HWM technology was the result of research at ITT Rayonier Research Laboratories in Whippany, New Jersey [284-287]. A chemically crimped fiber called Prima, with an unusual lobed cross section, HWM properties, low 56 5, and more than adequate strength gives more bulk and cover to fabrics. It can be blended with cotton or polyester or in heavier denier with wool. It is also used 100% in the tube-sock hosiery business in direct competition with cotton [288].
