1. Technical data on investigated fabrics and their enlarged photographs


The micrographs of the fabric (Fig. S1, S2, S3) were done with use of scanning electron microscope PHILIPS XL30. The samples were prepared by sputtering a thin layer of platinum to assure the electrical conductivity.

Fabric I: Manufactured by NBC INDUSTRUIES CO., LTD, 2-50-3 Toyoda, Hino, Tokyo 191, Japan.
