 Introduction.
Merged products arrived in America 25 years ago,
as an alternative for saving in the tasks, eliminating the
sewing of the interlinings to the outer fabric. Until about 15 years,
that which was achieved with the name of interfacing was
quite close to the definition of canvas, or another fabric
stiffener that is placed between the fabric and lining to give rigidity to the

the need of the market.

The main input for the fusion process is the

industrial machines.

Variables that influence the process of
merged.
 Thermal Adhesion.

Thermal adhesion consumes much less energy, it is better

with the environment and more economical. A wide range of
Products can be made with thermal adhesion, depending
from the options used in the process. The adhesion method
thermal has a significant effect on the characteristics of
product. Depending on the adhesion method, the
product characteristics can vary from non-porous,
very thin, inextensible, and non-absorbent even,
bulky or thick, extensible and absorbent. All the
thermal adhesion methods provide certain points of
strong links that are resistant to the hostile environment and also
to many solvents.

It is now known that pressure depends on the

If the pressure system does not work evenly across the entire width

conditions to achieve a good result.
Only the exact balance of temperature,
pressure and time can guarantee a
perfect adherence. For this reason the
temperature across the pressure surface
must be carefully evaluated every day,
the same as when there is any interruption.

or lighter than the main fabric.
Double the sample after the fused test. If

 What is a braid.
The interfacing is the hidden element that provides shape and
support in certain areas of any type of garment,
such as collars, pockets, waists, and eyelets. It adds body
to the light fabrics and prevents the heavy ones from bending over themselves
the same. It is used for both flat and knitted fabrics,
for tailoring and corsetry. There are light and dark ones
depending on the color of the fabric to be interfaced.
The key to choosing the right one is to know the type of
interfacing and what type of garments we are going to fuse.
 CLASSIFICATION OF INTERFACES.

WOVEN INTERFACINGS
Made from woven or knitted fabrics, they have
transverse and longitudinal threads. It must be
cut along the same thread as the part of the garment that
it will be reinforced. Otherwise, if we cut it off
biceps will provide elasticity.
 NOTESHAKES

They are made from Polyester, Rayon fibers, or

Acrylics, arranged in layers on top of each other,
joined together by means of different processes
chemicals. Therefore, they do not have thread, they can be cut into
any direction, and they do not fray. They result
perfect in knitted genres.
 Thermoplastics.
Thermofusible interlinings are faster and easier.
to use, they adhere to the fabric through heat, and provide greater
stiffness to the fabric or body, depending on the item.
They have been in the market for forty years. The decision to
use interfacing.
Thermofusibles or sewing is a matter of preference.
personal. The interlinings
Thermofusibles are suitable for almost all types of fabrics.
But some fabrics do not react well with the
combination of heat, steam, and pressure required for the
application of a thermofusible fabric.
 TYPES OF INTERFACES.

 PREPARATION OF THE INTERFACES

In the case of fusible interlinings, it is recommended

always test on a scrap of fabric to
to ensure that their properties are not altered,
put a clean cloth on the ironing board to
prevent part of the adhesive from sticking to it, and iron
with care without moving the iron from side to side, since
this will cause the appearance of air bubbles between the
the fabric and the interfacing will not be well secured.
