Nylon is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional tensile strength, making it resistant to stretching and breaking.

Spinning is the process of twisting fibers together to form a continuous yarn, which is a fundamental step in yarn manufacturing.

Plain weave is the simplest and most common weave pattern, where warp and weft yarns interlace at right angles, creating a basic and balanced fabric structure.

Singeing is a process that involves passing a fabric through a flame to remove surface fibers, impurities, and protruding yarns, resulting in a smoother and cleaner fabric surface.

The Colorfastness to Light Test is specifically designed to assess the resistance of textiles to fading or color change when exposed to light, ensuring the durability of colors in various lighting conditions.

Sizing agents are applied to yarns or fabrics to increase their strength, improve weaving or knitting efficiency, and reduce yarn breakage during weaving or knitting processes.

Yarn count, typically expressed in units like Ne or Tex, is primarily determined by the fiber diameter, as finer fibers result in higher yarn counts.

The reed in a weaving loom is responsible for separating the warp yarns and maintaining the desired spacing between them, ensuring the proper interlacing of warp and weft yarns.

Screen printing is a widely used method for printing designs onto fabrics, involving the transfer of ink through a mesh screen onto the fabric surface.

A tenter frame is used in textile finishing to stretch fabrics in both warp and weft directions, ensuring dimensional stability and preventing fabric distortion.

The Martindale Abrasion Test is widely used to assess the resistance of textiles to wear and abrasion, simulating the effects of repeated rubbing and friction.

A loom is a machine used in textile manufacturing to weave fabrics by interlacing warp and weft yarns, creating a structured and durable fabric.

The Tensile Strength Test is commonly used to determine the resistance of textiles to breaking under tension, measuring the maximum force a fabric can withstand before breaking.

Back-coating is a process in which a coating material is applied to the back of a fabric to provide a barrier against moisture, making it water-resistant or waterproof.

The Pilling Resistance Test is specifically designed to assess the resistance of textiles to the formation of pills or small balls of fibers on the fabric surface.
