Shoe size "Footwear - Sizing - Vocabulary and terminology"; currently in development are companion standards ISO/TS 19409 "Footwear - Sizing - Measurement of last dimensions" and ISO/TS 19410 "Footwear - Sizing - Inshoe measurement". The adult shoe sizes are calculated from typical last length, which is converted from foot length in mm by adding an allowance of two shoe sizes: where formula_13 is foot length in mm. Direct conversion between adult UK, European and Mondopoint shoe size systems is derived as follows: Exact foot lengths may contain repeating decimals because the formulas include division by 3; in practice, approximate interval steps of
Sizing sizing; the Ancient Egyptians sometimes used blood. Other commonly used traditional materials for gold leaf sizing are rabbit skin glue diluted and heated in water (water gilding), and boiled linseed oil (oil gilding); modern materials include polyvinyl acetate. Textile warp sizing, also known as tape sizing, of the warp yarn is essential to reduce breakage of the yarn and thus production stops on the weaving machine. On the weaving machine, the warp yarns are subjected to several types of actions i.e. cyclic strain, flexing, abrasion at various loom parts and inter yarn friction. With sizing, the strength — abrasion resistance
