A method of preparing a ceramic fabric and ceramic matrix composite components constructed from the ceramic fabric include transforming ceramic tows, or ceramic fabrics, to varying degrees from a first tow geometry to a second tow geometry, thereby reducing a first dimension of the ceramic tows and increasing a second dimension of the ceramic tows orthogonal to the first dimension. Plies constructed with flattened tows, or as-received tows, have various inter-tow pore sizes that are arranged with increasing inter-tow pore size towards exterior surfaces of the preform structure.

A method of preparing a ceramic fabric for use in a ceramic matrix composite includes transforming a ceramic tow from a first tow geometry to a second tow geometry, thereby reducing a first dimension of the ceramic tow and increasing a second dimension of the ceramic tow orthogonal to the first dimension to produce a flattened tow. The method includes weaving or braiding the flattened ceramic tow to form a ceramic fabric.

A wrapping material having three distinct polymeric layers interfaced with a woven polymeric scrim is disclosed. A first polymeric layer is formed by extruding a first polymeric coating onto the scrim. A second polymeric layer and a third polymeric layer are simultaneously formed by co-extruding a second polymeric coating onto the scrim and a third polymeric coating onto the second polymeric coating.

Woven irrigation tubing comprises a woven, extrusion coated & laminated tube formed of a high density polyethylene (HDPE) outer layer, a low density polyethylene (LDPE) middle layer and a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) inner layer. The finished tubing is treated for ultraviolet resistance. The tubing is tied off at a distal end with a proximal end connected to a pressurized irrigation source. Watering holes are created in the tubing at spaced intervals and the resulting water streams are directed into parallel plowed furrows. The tubing is completely recyclable. The tubing is formed by manufacturing tape for the woven outer tubing cover, stretching the tape along its length to strengthen it, weaving the outer layer from the tape, flattening the woven outer layer, extrusion coating each surface of the outer layer with LDPE, laminating the LLDPE inner layer to the LDPE, reversing and winding the tubing for storage and distribution.

A fiber structure can be used as a cell scaffold material, which fiber structure includes a multifilament formed by bundling monofilaments having an average fiber diameter of 1 to 15 μm, wherein each of the monofilaments satisfies Formula (1): (Y/X)×100>50 . . . (1) wherein, in Formula (1), X represents the number of monofilaments for which the average crossing angle is investigated, and Y represents the number of monofilaments having an average crossing angle of not more than 25° in X.

A moisture absorbent core sheath composite yarn has a sheath portion polymer that is a polyamide and a core portion that is a thermoplastic polymer, and has a moisture absorbance/desorbance (ΔMR) of 5.0%, wherein the ΔMR maintenance rate after 20 washes is 90%-100%. The core sheath composite fiber has high moisture absorbance, is more comfortable than natural fibers, and has wash resistance with moisture absorbance that stands up to real use and color fastness.
