A "fabric" is defined as any thin, flexible material made from yarn, directly from fibers, polymeric film, foam, or any combination of these techniques. Fabric has a broader application than cloth. [15]: 207 [16] Fabric is synonymous with cloth, material, goods, or piece goods.
1928 – International Bureau of Standardization of Man Made Fibers founded. [24] 1939 – US passes Wool Products Labeling Act, requiring truthful labeling of wool products according to origin. [25] 1940 – Spectrophotometer invented, with impact on commercial textile dye processes. 1942 – First patent for fabric singeing awarded in US. [26]
It can be assumed that the animal skins were used for clothing throughout the human history, although in the ways that are primitive when compared to the modern processing, the earliest known samples come from Ötzi the Iceman (late 4th millennium BC) with his goatskin clothes made from leather strips put together using sinews, bearskin hat, and shoes using the deerskin for the uppers and ...

Tissue is a thin, transparent, and lightweight material. [1] [2] Tissue fabric is a suitable material for designing various types of garments, including saris. [3] Tissue is characterized by the use of metallic yarns for decorative purposes. [4] The tissue sari is composed of silk threads in the warp and zari in the weft. [5] [6]
The comfort of the human body's pressure receptors' (present in the skin) sensory response towards clothing. Fabric with lycra feels more comfortable because of this response and superior pressure comfort. The sensation response is influenced by the material's structure: snugging, looseness, heavy, light, soft, or stiff structuring. [28] [29] [30]
reinforcement of composite materials (glass-reinforced plastic, glass fiber reinforced concrete) specialty papers in battery separators and filtration; Metallic fiber (1946) is used for: adding metallic properties to clothing for the purpose of fashion (usually made with composite plastic and metal foils) elimination and prevention of static ...
UD fabric for composite reinforcement. Metal fiber can be used as reinforcement fiber for composite materials, improving breaking behavior upon impact and electrical conductivity. Traditional carbon or glass fiber reinforcement fibers have very limited elongation possibilities, which results in a brittle and explosive breaking behavior.
