8、 one of a series of standards for textiles of a quality suitable for aerospace purposes. This British Standard supersedes BS 4F 120:1993 which is withdrawn. This new edition incorporates technical changes but it does not reflect a full review or revision of the standard, which will be undertaken in

9、due course. The primary difference between the fourth edition and the third edition of this British Standard was the introduction of three alternative constructions for 312, 950 and 1160 dtex yarns to allow the use of modern manufacturing methods to improve freedom from faults. This new edition inco

10、rporates all earlier amendments, updates references to other standards, revises the reference to BS F 100 and improves nomenclature in line with other standards.
