  2. Polypropylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypropylene

    It is produced via chain-growth polymerization from the monomer propylene. Polypropylene belongs to the group of polyolefins and is partially crystalline and non-polar. Its properties are similar to polyethylene, but it is slightly harder and more heat-resistant. It is a white, mechanically rugged material and has a high chemical resistance. [1]

  3. Liquid crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal

    Liquid crystal (LC) is a state of matter whose properties are between those of conventional liquids and those of solid crystals.For example, a liquid crystal can flow like a liquid, but its molecules may be oriented in a common direction as in a solid.

  5. Moiré pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moiré_pattern

    One of the most important properties of shape moiré is its ability to magnify tiny shapes along either one or both axes, that is, stretching. A common 2D example of moiré magnification occurs when viewing a chain-link fence through a second chain-link fence of identical design. The fine structure of the design is visible even at great distances.

  6. Intellisample - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellisample

    These methods are designed to improve anti-aliasing quality of scenes with partially transparent textures (such as chain link fences) and textures at oblique angles to the viewing screen. Intellisample 4.0 support was enabled, unannounced, for GeForce 6 series cards in Nvidia's display driver (Forceware), version 91.45.

  7. Alpha mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_mapping

    Alpha mapping is used when the given object's transparency is not consistent: when the transparency amount is not the same for the entire object and/or when the object is not entirely transparent. If the object has the same level of transparency everywhere, one can either use a solid-color alpha texture or an integer value.

  8. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    A texture map [5] [6] is an image applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape or polygon. [7] This may be a bitmap image or a procedural texture.They may be stored in common image file formats, referenced by 3D model formats or material definitions, and assembled into resource bundles.

  9. Sheer fabric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheer_fabric

    The sheerness of a fabric is expressed as a numerical denier which ranges from 3 (extremely rare, very thin, barely visible) to 15 (standard sheer for stockings) up to 30 (semi opaque) until 100 ().
