Elasticity

fibre properties return to the primitive length after being stretched or compressed. It is measured by calculating the initial "elastic modulus", which depends on the voltage of the fibre, calculating the "recovery angle", that is, the fold that remains to the fabric after being bent under weight for a determined time, and examining The "elongation to break", that is, the maximum elongation that the fibre under tension can reach without breaking.
