<p>A deformable multi-layer fabric for use in forming heat resistant bodies is proposed which comprises a multi-layer fabric formed from carbon yarns, the yarns being provided in plural form in the warp and/or weft directions and preferably in plural form throughout the whole of the fabric. The warp yarns in each group Cl-C12 exist in side-by-side disposition whilst the individual weft yarns of each group W1-W6 are subjected to a small degree of twist. The fabric is capable of ready deformation without cutting and facilitates the creation of complex shapes or profiles without reference to the warp direction thereof. <IMAGE></p> |
