Parameters for Fabric SelectionIn selecting a woven fabric for industrial applications, a number of design parameters may be considered. These are broken down into four basic variables: Yarn Weight, Thread Count, Weave Pattern, and Fabric Finish. The wide range of fiber glass weights, as well as yarn counts available in aramid and polymer fibers, provide the base for fabric design. Yarn weight, combined with thread count (the number of warp ends (lengthwise) and filling picks (width wise) per inch determines the strength, weight and thickness of the fabric.

Basic weaving concepts are utilized in the manufacture of fiber glass and high performance fabrics. The technology, however, is advanced to incorporate specialized precision equipment to meet the exacting demands of modern applications. Almost any weave can be woven, however for industrial there are seven basic patterns including: Plain, Basket, Leno, Four Harness Satin (Crowfoot), Eight Harness Satin, High Modulus, and Twill.

YarnFiberglass is glass in fiber form. All forms of glass fibers begin with similar manufacturing processes. The various ingredients are mixed in a batch to make a specific formulation and then high temperatures convert the mix into molten glass. Continuous filaments are attenuated (drawn or pulled rapidly) from the molten glass through a precision multihole bushing. A strand is produced by combining many individual continuous filaments (from 51 to 1632) depending on bushing size and end-use requirement. The filaments are coated with a lubricant or binder to protect them from damage during processing and weaving.

FormulationsGlass fibers are made from different formulations: “E” (electrical) being the most common all-purpose glass, while “S” (high-strength) is made for special applications. Astroquartz ® II and III quartz fiber products are the purest form of silica. The chemical composition of these glass formulations is shown on the next page.

Filament/Yarn NomenclatureAn exact system for identifying fiberglass textile yarns is required because of the wide variety of types which are produced. The nomenclature is used for filament and yarn identification consists of two basic parts - one alphabetical, the other numerical.

A typical example and the of its letters and numerals follow:

Glass Number ofComposition Single StrandsE=Electrical Filament in ContinuousS=High Strength Diameter Filament Yarns

E C G 150 2/2

Type of Yarn Strand Number of C=Continuous Count Strands Plied Filament Yardage/Lb Together (in Hundreds)

As shown, the letters describe the basic strand by composition, type and diameter. Numbers identify strand weight and yarn construction.

The strand count is the first series of numbers following the letters and indicates approximate yardage per pound, in hundreds (i.e. to compute the number of yards in a pound of strand, multiply the strand count by 100).

4

Page 9: JPS Composite · PDF fileJPS Composite Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of JPS Industries Inc., is the world’s leading manufacturer of high strength fiberglass, Astroquartz ®,

The second series of numbers designates the number of plies in continuous filament yarns.

The first digit indicates the number of single strands twisted together (untwisted single strands are commonly referred to as “singles” yarn and are designated as 1/0).

The second digit, separated from the first digit by a diagonal line, designates the number of strands that are plied together. To find the total number of strands, multiply the two numbers (0 multiplied as 1). A typical nomenclature for a continuous yarn: ECG 150-2/2 Where: E = Electrical Glass

C = Continuous Filament

G = Average Filament Diameter (see table, page 6)

150 = 15,000 Yd/Lb (Nominal) of Basic Strand

2/2 = Four Strands in the Twisted and Plied Yarn (2x2)

Approximate yards per pound of fabricated yarn can be computed by dividing the strand count, multiplied by 100, by the number of strands.

Therefore: 150 x 100 2 x 2The results of this computation must always be considered approximate because yards per pound are reduced slightly in the twisting and plying operations.

= 3750 yds/lb for fabricated yarn

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR GLASS FABRIC SELECTIONThere are five basic design variables toconsider when choosing fabric for industrial use:

ThicknessGlass fabrics are available in thicknesses ranging from 0.0010” to 0.060”.

6

Page 11: JPS Composite · PDF fileJPS Composite Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of JPS Industries Inc., is the world’s leading manufacturer of high strength fiberglass, Astroquartz ®,

WeightThe weight range begins at less than 1 ounce per square yard to over 50 ounces per square yard.

ConstructionThis is determined by the number of warp yarns (machine direction) and fill yarns (cross-machine direction) per inch of the fabric.

Yarn SizeYarn size determines the weight and thickness of the fabric. For specific applications, one yarn may be selected over another to the advantage of the fabric’s performance characteristics.

FinishMost industrial applications require that fabric be used with another material. For compatibility with other materials, a finish or after treatment is often applied to the fabric. See the finish sections for descriptions of various treatments.

YARN CONSTRUCTION

Twisting/PlyingThis process serves to control the yarn strength, diameter, weight, and flexibility. The filaments are twisted to a predetermined specification, and the twisted threads are then combined or plied, to balance and avoid any stresses in the yarn that can may cause processing difficulties. Many glass fabrics are woven from single yarns as received from the yarn producers. The filament diameter and the number of filaments in the base strand will also affect the yarn strength, diameter and flexibility.

WarpingThe warping operation in producing woven fabric is accomplished by laying the fibers in parallel order. A specified number of threads per inch are drawn from a creel and wound on a warp beam. Several warp beams are then combined to provide the designated number of threads per inch required in the fabric specification. This entire system of parallel threads is wound on one loom beam to become the “warp” or lengthwise system of threads in the fabric.

7

Page 12: JPS Composite · PDF fileJPS Composite Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of JPS Industries Inc., is the world’s leading manufacturer of high strength fiberglass, Astroquartz ®,

SlashingSlashing is employed when non twisted yarn is used. Warp sizing is applied to the yarns to facilitate handling and to provide protection during the weaving process. This operation involves (1) sizing single-fiberglass warp yarnswith a specially compounded chemical formulation, (2) drying the yarns, and (3) winding the desired number of ends on the loom beam.

EnteringThe entering operation arranges yarn for weaving in the warp direction. In this process, the warp yarns are threaded from the loom beam through the needle eyes on the proper harnesses to achieve the desired pattern or design in the fabric. The warp yarn is then drawn through a reed that is the final coating of the warp thread count. The reed is also to place the filling yarns in their proper position.

WeavingWeaving consists of interlacing a series of fiberglass filling yarns with a series of warp yarns at right angles. The filling yarns are inserted by an air jet, rapier or shuttle that traverses the yarns from one side of the warp to the other, interlacing the two systems of threads, “warp” and “filling”, in a prearranged weave plan.

WeavesThe matching of yarn, weave and finish for a particular requirement is an exacting science. Because fiberglass fabrics are highly engineered, the right combination of fabric weight, thickness and construction is essential in selecting the proper fabric for a particular application.

Selecting the right reinforcement fabric for any requirement can simplified by calling our technicians, design engineers and technical representatives. Their specialized experiencecan aid in selecting a reinforcement fabric suited to your requirements.

The weaving of reinforcement fabrics is a highly complex function that combines the latest in modern machine technology with the art of weaving, which is as old as

civilization. All standard fabric weaves can be produced withfiberglass, aramid, Astroquartz ®, polymer and carbon yarns.

Plain Weave

The plain weave consists of yarns interlaced in an alternating fashion, one over and one under every other yarn. The plain weave provides good fabric stability. It is the primary fabric used in the electronics and coating industries.

Basket Weave

The basket weave is similar to the plain weave, except that two or more filling yarns are alternately interlaced over and under each other. The basket weave is more pliable, flatter, and stronger than the plain weave, but is not as stable.

Leno

The leno weave is used where relatively low numbers of yarns are involved. The leno weave locks the yarns in place by crossing two or more warp threads over each other and interlacing with one or more fill threads. Light weight membrane Applications use the leno weave.

Four-Harness Satin (Crowfoot)

The four-harness satin weave is more pliable than the plain weave and is easier to conform to curved surfaces typical inreinforced plastics. In this weave pattern there is a three byone interlacing, where a fill yarn floats over three warp andunder one.

Page 15: JPS Composite · PDF fileJPS Composite Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of JPS Industries Inc., is the world’s leading manufacturer of high strength fiberglass, Astroquartz ®,

Eight-Harness Satin

The eight-harness satin is similar to the four-harness satin except than one filling yarn floats over seven warp yarns andunder one. This is a very pliable weave and is used for forming curved surfaces. It is generally produced in the6 oz/sqyd to 18 oz/sqyd weight range.

High Modulus Weave

The high modulus weave is used where high impact resistance and high strength are required. The weave eliminates the interlacing of structural yarns, thereby reducing crimp and shear factors. This special weave is the most pliable and conforms most readily to highly contoured planes.

11

Page 16: JPS Composite · PDF fileJPS Composite Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of JPS Industries Inc., is the world’s leading manufacturer of high strength fiberglass, Astroquartz ®,

2x2 Twill

The twill is used where tightly woven fabric with high density is required. The twill weave is characterized by a diagonal rib or twill line. The warp yarn floats over at least two consecutive picks, permitting more yarns per unit area.

The Manufacturing Process:Yarn to Fabric

1. WarpingInput yarn is transferred from the bobbin creel to section beams. The section beams constitute the machine direction or thread sheet segment of yarn in the loom. Several section beams are produced and consolidated into a “set”, which provides the input for slashing.

12

Page 17: JPS Composite · PDF fileJPS Composite Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of JPS Industries Inc., is the world’s leading manufacturer of high strength fiberglass, Astroquartz ®,

2. SlashingSlashing combines the warp ends of the set’s multiple section beams in a single warp or loom beam for weaving. Sizing is applied to the individual warp ends to minimize filament damage during handling and weaving.

3. EnteringIn the entering state the warp beam is setup for installation on the loom. A warp can containover 4,500 individual ends, depending on the design of thestyle. Each warp end is drawn through a drop wire, heddles and areed by hand or by machine. The drop wire, heddles and reed work tomechanically arrange and control thewarp yarn during weaving on the loom.

4. WeavingThe warp beam is installed on the loom, then either rapier technology for heavy fabrics or air jet technology for lighter weight fabrics is used to interlace the filling yarns at 90º angles to the warp ends. Once woven the fabric, called “greige fabric”, is then wound onto a roll ready for heat cleaning for glass or scouring for organic fabrics.

5. Heat CleaningGlass fabrics are processed through a caramelizer or coronizer to oxidize the organic binders and sizings from prior steps. The fabric then wound onto a porous steel drum, called a mandrel, and placed in a large batch oven and exposed to high heat. The heat flows around the exterior of the fabric, as well as through the mandrels to ensure complete exposure. The heat removes

all organics, leaving pure clean glass fabric. Organic, polymer based, fabrics are not heat cleaned.

6. FinishingCoupling agents are applied to the fabric during finishing.The coupling, or finishing, agents act to provide optimum adhesion between the reinforcement fabric and the polymermatrix. Ballistic fabrics may undergo scouring and water repellent treatment in the finishing stage.

ElectricalFiberglass fabrics offer outstanding performance to the electrical industry. Fiberglass fabrics are used in electrical laminates, antennas and printed circuit boards because they offer high strength, dimensional stability, temperature resistance and excellent electrical properties for low cost. Fiberglass fabrics may be coated with epoxies, silicones, rubber, PTFE, polyimides, neoprene and many other polymers. Fiberglass fabrics can be found in printed circuit boards, antennas, high voltage generators, transformers, switches, cables and many other electrical applications.

Structural ApplicationsDue to their high strength, dimensional stability and low cost, fiberglass fabrics are often used in the aerospace, automotive industries for structural applications. Fiberglass fabrics areused as reinforcements in highly engineered composite materials in many of the worlds leading aircraft, automobiles, buildings, bridges, roadways and sporting goods, among countless other applications.

Thermal InsulationStrength retention at high temperatures, corrosion and fire resistance and ease of handling make fiberglass fabrics an important material for thermal insulation. The U.S. Navy and commercial shipyards use fiberglass almost exclusively for pipe lagging and for thermal pad cover applications.

Astroquartz ® ApplicationsAstroquartz ® fabrics offer better solutions to high heat, highstrength problems.

The aerospace industry relies on Astroquarz fiber productsmade from pure fused silica (99.99% SiO ). An outstandingreinforcement for high temperature and ablative space andmissile applications. Astroquartz products are recommended when low dielectric loss properties are required, such as microwave transmission in radome and antenna applications.

Other applications include insulation for the space shuttle,cable tray insulation for nuclear power plants, and laminatedfabric for circuit boards.

Conform formable Astroquartz fabrics are recommended for use in preforms for resin transfer molding (RTM), pressmolding, and tooling applications.

Design Considerations for Astroquartz ® Fabric SelectionThere are five basic design variables to consider when choosing Astroquartz ® fabrics:

ThicknessQuartz and composite fabrics are available in thicknessesranging from 0.003” to 0.027”.

WeightThe weight for Astroquartz fabrics range from two to twelveounces per square inch.

Page 56: JPS Composite · PDF fileJPS Composite Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of JPS Industries Inc., is the world’s leading manufacturer of high strength fiberglass, Astroquartz ®,

Design Considerations for Astroquartz ® Fabric Selection (cont.)ConstructionThis is determined by the number of warp yarns/denier (in themachine direction) and filling yarns/denier (in the cross-machine direction) per inch of the fabric.

Yarn SizeYarn size determines the weight and thickness of the fabric.For specific applications, one yarn may be selected over another to take advantage of the fabric’s performancecharacteristics.

FinishMost industrial applications require that Astroquartz fabric beused along with another material. For compatibility a finish or after treatment is often applied to the fabric.

ADVANCED MATERIALS PRODUCTSPhysical Properties of Aramid FibersAramids - Kevlar ®*, Twaron ®**High StrengthAramid fibers are 43% lighter than E-glass fibers, with adensity of 1.44 g/cc compared to 2.55 g/cc. Aramids are twiceas strong as E-glass, ten times as strong as Aluminum and approach the strength of carbon fiber on a specific tensilestrength basis.

Dimensional StabilityAramids display excellent dimensional stability, with a slightlynegative coefficient of thermal expansion (-2.4 µm/ºC).

Chemical ResistanceAramids show minimal to no embrittlement and strength lossat temperatures as low as -320ºF. Aramids do not melt or combust, but will carbonize at approximately 800ºF.* Kevlar ® is a registered trademark of the E.I. DuPont du Nemours** Twaron ® is a registered trademaerk of Teijin Twaron USA, Inc.

Physical Properties of SelectedAdvanced Performance FibersUltra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene - Spectra ®High StrengthUHMWPE has a density of 0.97 g/cc making it one of thelightest high performance fibers, with a high strength toweight ratio. This fiber can be up to fifteen times as strong as steel.

Chemical ResistanceUHMWPE has excellent resistance to water, acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, ammonium hydroxide, kerosene, toluene, trichloromethane and microorganisms.This fiber is slightly affected by strong base.

Thermal StabilityThe melting point of UHMWPE is 150ºC. The tenacity andmodulus decrease at higher temperatures but increase insub-zero temperatures. They show essentially no embrittlement at temperatures as low as -150ºC.* Spectra ® is a registered trademark of Honeywell International Corp.

Advanced Materials ApplicationsBallistics and Protection ProductsJPS manufactures high performance fabrics for use in ballistic resistant applications. High performance fabrics areused extensively in bullet, fragment, and stab resistant bodyarmor for militaries, federal agencies, police, and correctionaldepartments. They are also used in the manufacture of helmets for both military and civilian agencies.

Marine, Tooling, and Recreational ProductsJPS high performance fabrics, exhibiting the properties ofhigh strength and durability, are used in a variety ofapplications ranging from boating to skiing. Applications aredriven by strength, weight durability, clarity, and cost. Applications include kayaks, boats, hydroplanes, safetyequipment, and other sporting goods.

Advanced Materials Fiber NomenclatureHigh performance fibers are typically designated by denier,tex, or decitex (dtex). Each is described below.

DenierThe denier system is used internationally to measure the sizeof silk and synthetic filaments and yarns. Denier number indicates the weight in grams of 9,000 meters of filament orfilament yarn. For example, if 9,000 meters weighs 100 grams, it is a 100-denier yarn. The smaller the denier number, the finer the yarn.

Denier = dtex X 0.9

TexThe tex system is also applicable to the measurement of filament yarns. It is based on the weight in grams of onekilometer (3,300 feet) of yarn. Decitex (dtex) is defined as tentimes tex.

Tex = dtex/10

For example, 840 denier yarn may also be designated as 933 dtex or 93.3 Tex.
