calendering

I did some quick calendering in my head.

Calendering is an operation carried out on a fabric to improve its aesthetics.

The surface is often made smoother by light calendering.

Calendering is a finishing process used on cloth where fabric is folded in half and passed under rollers at high temperatures and pressures.

End-on-end is almost identical to cambric (also known as chambray), lacking only the calendering which gives this fabric its glossy appearance.

In response, Emperor Wen joyously proclaimed an empire-wide festival and also restarted the calendering for his reign.

Compared to conventional calendering, metal belt calendering produces a smoother finish on paper and board.

Calendering is used on fabrics such as moire to produce its watered effect and also on cambric and some types of sateens.

Calendering is the third important mechanical process, in which the fabric is passed between heated rollers to generate smooth, polished or embossed effects depending on roller surface properties and relative speeds.

Calendering is also used in the production of certain types of secondary battery cells (such as spirally-wound or prismatic Lithium-ion cells) where it is used to achieve uniform thickness of electrode material coatings on current collector foils.
