The filament and suture products disclosed are to be implanted in the body, having non re sorbable ingredients with absorbent qualities to disperse an antibiotic and strong enough to hold tissue securely but flexible enough to be printed or knotted. The products are biocompatible and consist of two dissimilar polymers having unmelted cellulose fiber. These dissimilar polymers and the unmelted fibers are densified by compression and the removal of moisture having fiber orientation and alignment, showing low levels of radiopacity. These products will have radiopacity in household units (HU) ranging from −200 to 200 HU and produce meshes, bone grafts, scaffolds or wound care products where bone bridging can be observed.

Methods of producing a graphic mesh for a solar module are described in which mesh parameters such as warp fiber thickness, weft fiber thickness, and open area size are determined to meet a target energetic efficiency and a chromatic effectiveness. In some embodiments, chromatic effectiveness is based on mesh count, where the mesh count is set according to a distance at which the mesh will be viewed when assembled into the solar module. The mesh has a plurality of warp fibers having the warp fiber thickness and a plurality of weft fibers having the weft fiber thickness, that are interlaced to form a plurality of mesh unit cells. A graphic appearance is printed into the mesh using a coloring substance, where the coloring substance is absorbed by the fiber material to form the graphic mesh.
