Fabrican is a patented instant spray-on fabric technology. It was invented by Dr. Manel Torres while investigating ways to speed up conventional methods of constructing garments as part of his PhD research in Fashion at the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London. Dr. Torres founded Fabrican Ltd in 2003. The technology was further developed by Fabrican Ltd while based at Imperial College London. Fabrican is a spray-on material made from polymers and natural or synthetic fibres. The spray is delivered from a compressed air spray gun or aerosol can and dries instantly on contact with the air, creating a non-woven fabric that can be applied to many surfaces (including water).〔(Fabrican Ltd on the Discovery Channel )〕 The material is completely sterile〔(Fabrican's Medical Applications )〕 when it is dispensed from the spray gun or aerosol can. Fabrican has been showcased at London Fashion Week 2010 as well as fashion shows in Milan and Moscow and at numerous TED Talks.〔(Spray-On Fabric: Manel Torres at TEDxImperialCollege )〕〔(From fashion to technology - creating a new material: Manel Torres at TEDxVienna )〕 The technology has been featured in the media by the BBC, the Discovery Channel, CBS News and appeared in the film, Mr. Nobody, starring Jared Leto, and has been the subject of YouTube videos〔(Fabrican's YouTube Channel )〕 attracting millions of hits. In 2014, in conformity with an organisational emphasis on developing biomedical applications, Fabrican occupied new laboratory facilities at the London Bioscience Innovation Centre.〔(Fabrican’s innovative Spray-on Fabric )〕 ==See also== *Spray-on condom *Silly String *Spray-on skin 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fabrican」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
