Fabric structure on deterioration by atmospheric agents, both accelerated and outdoors (weathering test). The result is a coating that gives the fabric the following advantages: With these additional advantages, the fabrics coated with TITAN W lacquering will offer better durability compared to the existing coatings used.

When discussing fabric properties for use on a structure, there are several terms that are commonly used: When deciding on a fabric it is imperative to keep certain fabric properties in mind. These include stress versus strain (unit
