Abstract
The present invention is directed to a scrim comprised of a plurality of warp and weft tapes, and more specifically to a woven scrim comprised of warp tapes and weft tapes, wherein the warp tapes are positioned in first and second planes to increase the warp coverage by at least 150% such that the resulting scrim material is impervious to light and further deters bunching of the warp tapes.
Claims5
A woven scrim comprising a plurality of warp tapes oriented parallel to one another, arranged in a first plane and a second plane, wherein said first plane is offset from said second plane, and a plurality of weft tapes that intersect perpendicular to said first and second planes of said warp tapes;
- said weft tapes intersect every third warp tape, crossing over three tapes and then crossing under three tapes successively across the scrim, wherein said first plane of warp tapes and said second plane of warp tapes are offset from each other by at least 5% based on a width of the tapes.
