A manufacturing method of a silicone-coated glove, comprises: a knitting step (S100) of forming a glove; a water-repellency treatment solution preparation step (S200) of forming a water-repellency treatment solution by diluting a silicone-containing water-repellent agent for fabrics with water; a water-repellency treatment solution dipping step (S300) of dipping the knitted glove in the water-repellency treatment solution; a water-repellent coating formation step (S400) of forming, on a fabric layer (10) of the glove, a water-repellent coating (20) containing silicone by dehydrating the glove dipped in the water-repellency treatment solution and then drying the glove at 80-180 C.; a dipping step (S500) of forming a silicone coating (30) by dipping the glove having the water-repellent coating (20) in a silicone coating solution; and a drying step of hardening the glove having the silicone coating (30).

A seat assembly includes a fabric component having a seat surface and a carrier attached to the fabric component. The carrier includes a variable thickness along the perimeter of the carrier. The fabric component includes two or more tension zones.

Provided is a covered stent manufacturing method including: disposing an inner cover inside a stent body having a mesh structure formed by knitting wires, the stent body having engagement portions, each of which is formed by hooking two bent portions of the wires with each other; disposing an outer cover outside the stent body; forming a slack portion that expands in a radial direction of the stent body in at least one of the covers, the slack portion creating slack that allows movements of the two bent portions in a longitudinal direction and the radial direction of the stent body in at least one of the covers; and joining the covers with each other in regions on an inner side of the mesh of the mesh structure.

A frictional transmission belt according to the present disclosure has a belt body wound around a pulley to transmit power. The belt includes a water absorptive fabric covering at least one side of the belt body that contacts with the pulley.

A garment material comprising: a first layer, wherein the first layer is a shaped polymer; a second layer, wherein the second layer is a shaped polymer that is provided at one or more locations on the first layer, the second layer taking the shape of the first layer at said one or more locations; and a textile layer; wherein the second layer is located between the first layer and the textile layer; wherein the second layer comprises a liner embedded in the shaped polymer of the second layer, the liner being formed of yarn and there are interstices through the liner, and wherein: the yarn of the liner has a weight per length of 10 to 60 Dernier; and the liner has a weight per area in the garment material or in a region of the garment material that is from 5 to 35 g/m.sup.2.

The invention provides a composite material comprising a fibre material, a resin and an array comprising a conductive yarn, wherein the spatial configuration of the array is configured to change in response to a load applied to the composite material such that the resistance of the conductive yarn changes. The invention also provides a method of making a composite material. The method comprises: providing a fibre material; arranging an array comprising conductive yarns around the fibre material; and setting the fibre material and the array in place using a polymer matrix.
