Plain weaving

Metal Fabrics or Screens These are available in several types of weave in nickel, copper, brass, bronze, aluminum, steel, stainless steel. Monel, and other alloys. In the plain weave, 400 mesh is the closest... 

Plain weave Another name for square weaves. See weave patterns. 

Fabric, Cloth or Mat Woven strands of filament. The weave pattern used depends on the flexibility and balance of strength properties required in the warp and fill directions. Fig. 4.65 shows a plain weave in which the strength is uniform in both directions. The warp direction refers to the direction parallel to... 

Plain Weave—In this construction, one warp end is repetitively woven over one fill yam and under the next. It is the firmest, most stable construction, which provides for porosity and minimum slippage. Strength is uniform in both directions. 

A plain weave cotton fabric filled with a starchy substance to give it a glossy, non-adherent surface. It was formerly much used to preserve a fresh tacky surface on unvulcanised mbber (tyre, tube and belt repair patches) but has been almost completely superseded by polyethylene film. Holofol...

As noted earlier, CVl is nsed primarily to form ceramic-fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites. The most common of these combinations is SiC fiber/SiC matrix composites. One commercially available product has a two-dimensional 0/90 layup of plain weave fabric and fiber volume fraction of about 40%. This same composite can be fabricated with unidirectional fibers and with 45° architectures. The most commonly used SiC fiber for the preforms is Nicalon , the mechanical properties for which were provided earlier in Section 5.4.2.7. A number of other carbide and nitride fibers are also available, including Si3N4, BN, and TiC. Preform geometries can be tailored to the application in order to maximize strength and toughness in the direction of maximnm stresses. The reactions used to form the matrix are similar to those used in CVD processes (cf. Section 7.2.4) and those described previously in Eq. (3.105).

Duvet covers, sheets, and pillow covers can have a range of fabric compositions. Most are either cotton or, more commonly, cotton-polyester mixtures of different percentages. Table 7.12 illustrates some currently available in the U.K. through major outlets. Though they can be of fancy weaves (e.g., damask), most are plain weave. Fitted sheets will contain elastic at the corners, whereas duvet covers usually have plastic button or press stud fasteners. 

Raw wool fabric samples of a plain-weave (155 g/m2), supplied by the Wool Company 9 May S.A., Lodz, Poland, were used in this research. These wool samples were thoroughly extracted with a mixture of ethanol/ben-zene (32.4/67.6 wt%) for 8 hours using Soxhlet apparatus. The extracted wool fabrics were washed twice with 96% ethanol and rinsed twice with deionised water. Finally, the wool fabrics were dried in an oven at 50 °C for 1 hour and were then air dried. 

Like cotton, there are many different linen fabrics made from the basic flax fiber. Most of these are defined only by the type of weave and the fineness of the fiber, such as cambric and damask. The word linen is usually applied only to unbleached plain weave material. Some names are applied to similar fabrics made of cotton and linen. An example of this is canvas, a plainly woven fabric of varying weight made from hard-twisted yam. Canvas may be made from hemp, cotton, jute, or flax (linen). Most fine fabrics, particularly of European or American manufacture, are made from flax. Since its invention in the 1600s, most lace has also been made of flax thread.

Repp is warp-faced plain weave fabric. 

The objective of the study is to determine the nature and extent of pseudomorphs on Spl by mapping, with photomicrography and statistical sampling techniques. The population to be studied consisted of all pseudomorphs after fabric located on the spearpoint. A survey previously conducted with microscopy identified the general location of the mineralized fabrics. A research hypothesis, derived from the survey of evidence, governed the study and is as follows Pseudomorphs after fabric located on Spl are fragments of an unbalanced plain-weave type of fabric. 

Of the 13 available attributes, three have direct relevance to the research hypothesis concerning incidence of unbalanced plain-weave fabric. These attributes are the presence of float in one set of yarns of a fabric structure, the presence of a plain weave (defined as a repeated simple alternating) interworking pattern (1/1), and the presence of layers of fabric. If all three are present, there are at least three possible interpretations ... 

Strong evidence suggests that only one type of fabric was present it was an unbalanced plain weave. The evidence also indicates there were areas of float interworking that would support the possibility of structural patterning. The mineralized fabric identified as an unbalanced plain weave located on the spearpoint should be considered a variant with areas of float. 

If the attribute analysis had revealed that the pseudomorphs after fabric located upon the spearpoint indicated only an unbalanced plain weave, then... 

The presence of layers of mineralized fabric suggests that the silk fabric may have been wrapped around the blade, but the fabric was altered in the diagenetic context. All evidence of fabric was destroyed on the reverse side of the spearpoint. Furthermore, the shift in the geometric relation of the layers with the same attributes, as indicated in the mapped area, tends to support the wrapping of one fabric rather than the possibility of double cloth or some other compound fabric variant. The Han warp-faced compound tabby (unbalanced plain weave) has two sets of warp that are integrated into one layer and may be considered a compound fabric with complementary warp (16, 17), The reason for the placement of fabric and weapon in the burial context remains a crucial question for reconstruction of past decision making. 

In Chinese silks of both plain weave and satin weave, the selvedges were observed to contrast in color, and at times in weave, from the ground color of the fabric. (White Chinese silks often had yellow or green selvedges.) Such a contrast was not regularly found on Western silks. 

Materials. The wool fabric was a plain-weave worsted wool, style 6561, from Burlington Industries. The silk fabric was a degummed silk crepe, style 601, from Testfabrics, Inc. The dyes were >95% pure and were from the following sources alizarin (C. I. Mordant Red 8) from Aldrich Chemical Co. brazilin (C. I. Natural Red 24) from J. T. Baker Chemical Co. and carminic acid (C. I. Natural Red 4) from H. Kohnstamm Co., Inc. The five reagent grade metal salts used were aluminum potassium sulfate, stannous chloride, cupric sulfate, ferrous sulfate, and potassium dichromate from J. T. Baker Chemical Co. 

Treatment Sequence. The textile used for the experiments was unbleached and undyed cotton. The fragment was plain weave and had a thread count of 17 X 12/cm (warp X weft), and the yams were spun with a Z twist. The textile was dated from about A.D. 1100 to A.D. 1350 and was attributed to the Peruvian central coast. It was only moderately dirty and was in excellent condition. 

Fabric. The fabric used in this work was a plain weave, 80 X 80 cotton print cloth weighing about 100 g/m2 (Testfabrics, No. 400). The fabric was twice laundered and dried according to the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (AATCC) Test Method No. 124-1978.
