Abstract
Abstract A woven material of inorganic fiber, and a process for making the same, are disclosed in which exposed surfaces of warps and wefts constituting the woven material are opened as a result of being impinged by jets of pressurized water, whereby the fibers on the surface of the woven material are uniformly raised.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
In a woven material of inorganic fiber used for reinforcing various kinds of resin and obtained by weaving inorganic fibers, wherein each of the warps and wefts constituting said woven material is band-like and comprises a continuous filament yarn, having a number of twisted continuous filaments, said warps and wefts having been substantially uniformly loosened and opened widthwise relative to their originally woven form at the exposed surface of said woven material by the effect of pressurized jets of water, from a plurality of nozzles, having been impinged on the woven material, so that the distance between said filaments has been widened to facilitate uniform impregnation of said woven material with resin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
112 words
In a woven material of inorganic fiber used for reinforcing various kinds of resin and obtained by weaving inorganic fibers, wherein each of the warps and wefts constituting said woven material is band-like and comprises a continuous filament yarn, having a number of twisted continuous filaments, said warps and wefts having been substantially uniformly loosened and opened widthwise relative to their originally woven form at the exposed surface of said woven material by the effect of pressurized jets of water, from a plurality of nozzles, having been impinged on the woven material, so that the distance between said filaments has been widened to facilitate uniform impregnation of said woven material with resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
132 words
In a woven material of inorganic fiber used for reinforcing various kinds of resin and obtained by weaving inorganic fibers, wherein each of the warps and wefts constituting said woven material are band-like and comprises a continuous filament yarn, having a number of twisted continuous filaments, said warps and wefts having been substantially uniformly loosened and opened widthwise relative to their originally woven form at the exposed surface of said woven material by the effect of pressurized jets of water, from a plurality of nozzles, having been impinged on the woven material, so that the distance between said filaments has been widened to facilitate uniform impregnation of said woven material with resin, and wherein said warps and wefts are raised due to some of said continuous filaments having been broken and damaged.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
132 words
In a woven material of inorganic fiber used for reinforcing various kinds of resin and obtained by weaving inorganic fibers, wherein each of the warps and wefts constituting said woven material are band-like and comprises a continuous filament yarn, having a number of twisted continuous filaments, said warps and wefts having been substantially uniformly loosened and opened widthwise relative to their originally woven form at the exposed surface of said woven material by the effect of pressurized jets of water, from a plurality of nozzles, having been impinged on the woven material, so that the distance between said filaments has been widened to facilitate uniform impregnation of said woven material with resin, and wherein said warps and wefts are raised due to some of said continuous filaments having been broken and damaged.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
32 words
A woven material according to claim 1, wherein each of the warps and wefts is formed of approximately several hundred filaments, each filament having a diameter in a range of 5-9 microns.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
17 words
A woven material according to claim 1, wherein said woven material is used as printed circuit boards.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
14 words
A woven material according to claim 1, wherein said inorganic fibers are glass fibers.
