  2. Photo-oxidation of polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photo-oxidation_of_polymers

    Depending upon substitution, the UV absorption spectrum is changed to match the application. Concentrations normally range from 0.05% to 2%, with some applications up to 5%. Frequently, glass can be a better alternative to polymers when it comes to UV degradation. Most of the commonly used glass types are highly resistant to UV radiation ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_protective_clothing

    In 2003, chemical company BASF embedded nanoparticles of titanium dioxide into a nylon fabric, which can be used for sun protective clothing that maintains its UV protection when wet. [4] There is some indication that washing fabrics in detergents containing fabric brighteners, which absorb UV radiation, might increase their protective capability.

  4. Technical textile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_textile

    A technical textile is a textile product manufactured for non-aesthetic purposes, where function is the primary criterion. [1] Technical textiles include textiles for automotive applications, medical textiles (e.g., implants), geotextiles (reinforcement of embankments), agrotextiles (textiles for crop protection), and protective clothing (e.g., heat and radiation protection for fire fighter ...

    Depending on the desired property, a nanofabric is either constructed from nanoscopic fibers called nanofibers, or is formed by applying a solution containing nanoparticles to a regular fabric. Nanofabrics research is an interdisciplinary effort involving bioengineering , [ 5 ] molecular chemistry , physics , electrical engineering , computer ...

  6. Garden furniture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_furniture

    Aluminium garden furniture is robust and long-lasting. However, if the protective coating is compromised it will corrode. Plastic garden furniture is naturally waterproof, so it can be left out year-round. Waterproof outdoor furniture pieces are usually made of materials such as Mahogany, Teak, Cast Aluminum, PE Wicker, Plastic and PVC Wicker.

  7. Waterproof fabric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterproof_fabric

    Drop of water on 100% polyester textile. Waterproof/breathable fabrics resist liquid water passing through, but allow water vapour to pass through. Their ability to block out rain and snow while allowing vapour from sweat to evaporate leads to their use in rainwear, waterproof outdoor sports clothing, tents, and other applications.

    Oilskin jacket and sou'wester. Oilskin is a waterproof cloth used for making garments typically worn by sailors and by others in wet areas. The modern oilskin garment was developed by a New Zealander, Edward Le Roy, in 1898.

  9. List of textile fibres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_textile_fibres

    Textile fibres or textile fibers (see spelling differences) can be created from many natural sources (animal hair or fur, cocoons as with silk worm cocoons), as well as semisynthetic methods that use naturally occurring polymers, and synthetic methods that use polymer-based materials, and even minerals such as metals to make foils and wires.
