Technology of multilayer and spacer knitted fabrics. Monograph

      Аннотация: This book presents the concept of producing distance weft-knitted fabrics of relatively high thickness in regard to the needle pitch and distance between the beds of a knitting machine. Such construction was obtained by linking external layers of the knitted fabric with different reports and a number of knitted-in monofilament threads, and also by the modification of external layers using elastomeric threads. Distance knitted fabrics designed for the potential use as preforms for composites and elements protecting against the impact were analised with regard to the structural parameters.
