Disclosed is a camouflage fabric which simplifies a preparation process of warps and wefts so as to assure convenience in warp and weft preparation and acquires combinations of various patterns and colors using a three-ply fabric structure so as to satisfy aesthetics, i.e., one of functions of clothing, and to have an excellent camouflaging effect. Dyed yarns of a dark color and dyed yarns of a light color are alternately arranged as the warps, dyed yarns of three colors differing from the colors of the warps are used as the wefts, the warps and the wefts are woven into the camouflage fabric of a three-ply jacquard texture using a jacquard loom and, thus, the camouflage fabric may have combinations of various patterns and colors.

A metalized fabric and method for metallization of fabric. The fabric is formed using two threads with different affinities for metallization, but which threads are not metalized prior to forming into the fabric. The threads will typically be woven using an unbalanced weave to provide one side of the fabric with a resultant greater amount of metallization than the other but this is not required. Once the resultant fabric is metalized, it will typically be more suitable for consistent color dying than fabric which was formed from both metalized and unmetallized threads.

A mesh material for fabricating hunting blinds, tents, and other similar flexible structures. The material is durable, water-resistant, and partially light-transmissive such that persons or objects inside or behind the structures are not easily seen from outside the structures. The material is also semi-permeable to air flow for ventilation purposes. The mesh material is fabricated from an interwoven polyester fabric that is coated with acrylic and a mixture of silicone and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). Patterns and/or colors are printed on both sides of the fabric with a heat transfer paper printing process to provide a desired level of light transmissivity.

A fabric includes a first flexible fabric layer, having fabric emissivity properties in a visible radiation range that are selected so as to mimic ambient emissivity properties of a deployment environment of the fabric, and at least one second flexible fabric layer, which is joined to the first flexible fabric layer, and which is configured to scatter long-wave radiation that is incident on the fabric. The first and second flexible fabric layers are perforated by a non-uniform pattern of perforations extending over at least a part of the fabric.

An enhanced char integrity fabric containing a plurality of warp yarns in the warp direction and a plurality of weft yarns in the weft direction. The warp yarns and the weft yarns contain thermoplastic fibers having a melting temperature less than about 300 C. The enhanced char integrity fabric also contains a plurality of char reinforcing yarns in at least the warp direction. The char reinforcing yarns have a different composition than the warp yarns and the weft yarns and contain non-melting fibers having a decomposition temperature greater than 300 C. The char reinforcing yarns are in an amount of less than about 30% wt of the warp yarns and the tensile strength of the char reinforcing yarns is about equal or less than the tensile strength of the warp yarns.

A method of manufacturing camouflage clothing worn by soldiers is provided. The optimum camouflage clothing satisfying clothing functionality, aesthetics, and camouflaging effect, which is an important function for military uniforms, is provided while the optimum camouflage clothing is economical. The camouflage clothing is formed by dyeing threads i.e. row material, using the dyed threads as warp threads and weft threads, and weaving the camouflage clothing using a jacquard weaving machine. Herein, the warp threads and the weft threads are gradationally arranged to form a delicate-colored checked pattern while a three-dimensional pattern is displayed by the jacquard weaving machine.

Electronic-ink-based colorful patterned color-changing fabrics and preparation methods thereof are provided. The fabric includes a conductive fabric microstrip formed by weaving using conductive yarn and insulating yarn. The conductive yarn forms a conductive region, and the insulating yarn form an insulating region. An electronic ink microencapsule layer is arranged on the conductive region. A flexible transparent conductive layer is arranged on the electronic ink microencapsule layer. A transparent polymer layer is arranged on the flexible transparent conductive layer. A surface layer of the microstrip is a conductive layer, and a bottom layer of the microstrip is an insulating layer. An electrophoretic color-changing microencapsule, a conductive one-dimensional nanomaterial, and a transparent polymer are uniformly coated on a surface of the microstrip, and a voltage output by a drive circuit is respectively applied to the conductive microstrip and the transparent conductive layer to achieve selective flip and color rendering of centimeter-scale micro-region on the surface of the microstrip. Upper and lower electrodes are connected with a control circuit to achieve centimeter-scale pixel control and large-size graphic display and make a conductive-fabric-substrate-based foldable, high-environmental tolerant low-cost large-area color display and adaptive visible light camouflage fabric.

A shading device for a greenhouse includes a shading element and at least one lighting element, wherein the shading element comprises an outer side and an inner side. The shading element is formed from interwoven electrically conductive first thread elements and electrically insulating second thread elements. The first and/or second thread elements each may be adapted for reflecting an ambient light. The lighting element(s) may be arranged at the inner side of the shading element and connected with the first thread elements, and the lighting element(s) may be driven by an electrical current, conducted by the first thread elements, resulting in the emission of an artificial light, which may illuminate a plant growing in the greenhouse.
