TEXTILE



A textile or cloth is a flexible material consisting of a network of natural or artificial fibres (yarn or thread). Yarn is produced by spinning raw fibres of wool, flax, cotton, hemp, or other material to produce long strands.Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting, or felting.


The words fabric and cloth are used in textile assembly trades (such as tailoring and dressmaking) as synonyms for textile. However, there are subtle differences in these terms in specialized usage. Textile refers to any material made of interlacing fibres. A fabric is a material made through weaving, knitting, spreading, crocheting, or bonding that may be used in production of further goods (garments, etc.). Cloth may be used synonymously with fabric but is often a finished piece of fabric used for a specific purpose (e.g., table cloth).

TEXTILE INDUSTRY The  textile industry  is primally concerned with the design and production of  yarn ,  cloth ,  clothing , and their distribution. The raw material may be natural, or synthetic using products of the  chemical industry . Cotton Manufacturing Cotton  is the world's most important natural fibre. In the year 2007, the global yield was 25 million tons from 35 million hectares cultivated in more than 50 countries. Synthetic Fibres Artificial fibres  can be made by extruding a polymer, through a spinneret into a medium where it hardens. Wet spinning (rayon) uses a coagulating medium. In dry spinning (acetate and triacetate), the polymer is contained in a solvent that evaporates in the heated exit chamber. In melt spinning (nylons and polyesters) the extruded polymer is cooled in gas or air and then sets.All these fibres will be of great length, often kilometers long. Artificial fibres can be processe...

        RAYMOND Raymond  is a male  given name . It was borrowed into English from French (older French spellings were Reimund  and  Raimund , whereas the modern English and French spellings are identical). It originated as the  Germanic   Raginmund  or  Reginmund.  "Ragin" ( Old German ) and "regin" ( Gothic ) meant "counsel."  The  Old High German  "mund" originally meant "hand,"   but came to mean "protection." This etymology suggests that the name originated in the  Early Middle Ages , possibly from Latin. Despite the German and French origins of the English name, some of its early uses in English documents appear in Latinized form. As a surname, its first recorded appearance in Britain appeared in 1086, during the reign of  William the Conqueror , in the  Domesday Book , with a reference to Giraldus Reimundus. The most commonly used names for baby boys...
