Foam is formed by
incorporating air into polymers to create bulk
3 categories of film
Plain
Expanded
Supported
Fiberwebs may be formed by
felting or
bonding
Wool felt is a fiberweb formed by
felting fibers
The thermoplastic nature of manufactured fibers allows the formation of fiberwebs by
Spunbonding? (6)
Methods of Forming fabrics directly from yarn
-Netting
-Lace
-Hand-made Lace
-Braided Fabric
2 ways of creating suede-like fabrics
Flocking
Tufting
Spunbonded
a process of forming a fiberweb as fibers are extruded from a spinneret
3 Methods of creating pile fabrics
Tufting
Needle-Punching
Flocked Pile
Method of forming a multi-component fabric by needle punching yarns into base fabric to form a pile
Needle Punched?
Mulit-Component Fabrics can be composed of a combo of
Knits
Wovens
Fiberweb
Porometric Coating ex:
Goretex
Laminating ex:
Shantung laminated to Jersey knit
Spun Bonded ex:
?

2 compatability factors to be considered in selecting trims for apparel and accessories
Color
Fiber Content
Shrinkage
Other fabrication methods
cannot be categorized as woven or knitted
Other Methods:
-Non- wovens
-Polymer Films and Foams
-Fabric from Yarns
-Multi-components
Fiberwebs made from
fibers without the intermediate step of yarn formation
Structures made directly from fibers are
fastest growing area of textile industry
Other methods advantages over woven or knits
-cheaper
-produced faster
2 ways to form fiberwebs
Felting
Bonding
Felting Fibers
Wool Felting (interlocking fibers)
Fiber entangling
Bonded Fiber web
Adhesive
Fused with heat
Interlocking fibers
-arranged in layer
-subjected to heat, agitation, pressure
Felt
sheet of matted fibers made from wool, hair, fur
Felting
-no bonding adhesive
-most fiber used is wool
Felted Fabrics have
-good resiliency
-low strength & elasticity
-tear/stretch
-good insulation
Felts used on
stereo speakers covers
movie theater walls
Ways of entangling fibers-
-Needle-punching
-Hydro-entangling
Needle-Punching
-barbed needles punched through base
-needle holes visible on surface
Hydro-Entangling
-staple fibers entangled with high velocity water jets
-soft and drapable
Common use for fiberwebs
-Mattress pads and covers
-insulation
-upholstery
Fibers bonded together with
-Adhesive agent
-fusing with heat
Adhesive Agent
-cross layering
-adhesive applied
-set with pressuer and heat
-fabric dried and cured
Cured
add strength with adhesive bonding
Spun bonded
forming web immediately after fibers are extruded from spinneret
-thermoplastic fibers
Films
-thin sheet of extruded polymer
-made from solutions
-formed into flat film
Polymers that form films
-acetate
-polyurethane
Plain film
water and air proof
Expanded film
softer and spongier
Supported film
expanded or plain film laminated to woven or knitted structure
-more durable
Characteristics of films
-waterproof
-soil resistant
-low cost
Use of films
-shower curtains
-plastic bags
-plastic covers
Most common foams
-rubber
-polyeurathane
Characteristics of foams
-bulky
-spongy
-low strength
uses of foam
-pillow filling
-mattress
-carpet padding
When exposed to sunlight it will discolor and disintegrate when exposed to bleach
foam
major ways of forming large fabrics from yarns
knitting
weaving
Narrow width fabrics and trims made by
diagonal and vertical interlacing of yarns
Narrow fabrics and trims manufacturing may involve
weaving
knitting
braiding
non-woven techniques
Narrow fabrics have
-specialized uses
-small production volume

-Cord
Multi-component fabric
made of several layers of material held together by stitching and adhesives
Multi-component fabrics
-stitch-bond
-coated
-laminated
Stitch-bonded fabric
made by machines combine layers by stitching
Coated fabrics
woven, knit, or fiberweb covered with polymer film
Lamination
superimposing and bonding 2 or more layers
Pile fabric
formed by stitching extra yarns into base fabric
Quilted Fabric
-joining 3 layers together
-2nd layer-fiberweb or foam
-stitch or fuse together
2 types of quilting
-stitched
-ultrasonic
Suede
-made using micro-fibers and polyurethane
Flocked Pile
-made by shooting cut fibers at fabric or foam covered in adhesive
