    A blend is a mixture of two or more fibers.In yarn spinning, different compositions, lengths, diameters, or colors may be combined to create a blend. [1] Blended textiles are fabrics or yarns produced with a combination of two or more types of different fibers, or yarns to obtain desired traits and aesthetics.

  3. Polymer blend - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_blend

    The first technique of modification developed was the polymerization, in other words, the joint polymerization of more than one kind of polymer. A new polymers modification process, based on a simple mechanical mixture of two polymers first appeared when Thomas Hancock created a mixture of natural rubber with gutta-percha. This process ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_ladder

    Word ladder (also known as Doublets, [1] word-links, change-the-word puzzles, paragrams, laddergrams, [2] or word golf) is a word game invented by Lewis Carroll. A word ladder puzzle begins with two words, and to solve the puzzle one must find a chain of other words to link the two, in which two adjacent words (that is, words in successive ...

    The solver is given a grid and a list of words. To solve the puzzle correctly, the solver must find a solution that fits all of the available words into the grid. [1] [2] [8] [9] Generally, these words are listed by number of letters, and further alphabetically. [2] [8] Many times, one word is filled in for the solver to help them begin the ...

  8. Hybrid material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_material

    For example, low temperature derived inorganic materials are often amorphous or crystallinity is only observed on a very small length scale, i.e. the nanometer range. An example of the latter is the formation of metal nanoparticles in organic or inorganic matrices by reduction of metal salts or organometallic precursors.

  9. Superabsorbent polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superabsorbent_polymer

    Other materials are also used to make a superabsorbent polymer, such as polyacrylamide copolymer, ethylene maleic anhydride copolymer, cross-linked carboxymethylcellulose, polyvinyl alcohol copolymers, cross-linked polyethylene oxide, and starch grafted copolymer of polyacrylonitrile to name a few. The latter is one of the oldest SAP forms created.
