DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The sheet material in accordance with the first aspect of the invention comprises a fabric base layer which is made of knitted threads of high-density polyethylene (abbreviated "HDPE") and which is coated on both sides thereof with a polymer coating compound of low-density polyethylene (abbreviated "LDPE") which provides the sheet material with water-resistant properties. The Applicant has found that a good bond is achieved between a LDPE and a HDPE.
The fabric base layer is produced on a 16-gauge Raschel-type warp knitting machine. With reference Figure 1 , a 16-gauge Raschel-type warp knitting machine comprises a series of latch needles 10, a trick plate 12 and three guide bars, the first guide bar carrying a series of guide needles 14.1, the second guide bar carrying a series of guide needles 14.2, and the third guide bar carrying a series of needles 14.3. The latch needles of the knitting machine are spaced 1/8 of an inch apart. Hence, the needle gaps are 1/8 of an inch. A knitting fabric 16 made on the knitting machine comprises a single series of monofilament threads M each of which passes through the eye of a corresponding one of the guide needles 14.1 , a second series of threads in the form of monotapes T1 each of which passes through the eye of a corresponding one of the guide needles 14.2, and a third series of threads in the form of monotapes T2 each of which passes through the eye of a corresponding one of the guide needles 14.3.
The monofilament threads M are 400 Denier monofilament threads. The tapes T1 and T2 are each in the form of 350 Denier tape having a width of 1.8mm and a thickness of 0.035mm.
With reference to Figure 2 of the drawings, each of the monofilament threads M are knitted to form a pillar stitch which gives the fabric strength in the longitudinal or warp direction. The monofilament threads are knitted with 11 4 pillar stitches per inch of fabric. The tapes T1 are knitted in a zig-zag fashion to form a binding between adjacent pillar stitches. The tapes T1 are knitted in a closed "Sammt" stitch and traverse the equivalent of four needle gaps in a weft direction per machine cycle. The monotapes T2 are added to the monofilament threads and the monotapes T1 and traverse the equivalent of one needle gap in a weft direction. As such, the configuration of the monotapes T1 and T2, in particular, provide the knitted fabric with its "coverage" properties for shade protection.
Due to the knit configuration of the fabric base layer, the fabric base layer exhibits equal elongation and tensile strength properties in both warp and weft directions. The knit configuration thus provides a knitted fabric having uniform properties in both warp and weft directions. Due to the material properties and stitches used for the monotapes of the second and third series, the monotapes exhibit sufficient tensile strength in the weft direction, thereby obviating the need for monofilament threads in the weft direction.
The "throw" of the monotapes T1 in the knit fabric are relatively long thereby providing a more stable knit fabric. The monofilament threads and the monotapes do not slide over one another. By utilising the Sammt construction to anchor the weft monotapes T1 with the pillar stitches of the monofilament threads, the fabric is provided with stability in both weft and warp directions.
The relatively tight knit configuration of the fabric provides the fabric with a smoother surface texture which allows for coating of the fabric with more precision thereby providing the fabric with enhanced aesthetic appeal.
The following pattern chain is used to set up the knitting machine and defines the knit configuration.

With reference to Figure 4 of the drawings, a method of manufacturing the sheet material in accordance with the invention, is illustrated. The fabric base layer 20 is fed in the direction shown by arrow "A" at a feed rate of approximately 25m/min along feed rollers 22 to a position below an extruder 24 which extrudes pre-heated LDPE film 26 having a thickness of 1 micron, onto the surface of an upper side of the fabric base layer. The coating compound is pre-heated to approximately 250°C. Prior to being coated with the LDPE film, the fabric base layer undergoes corona treatment and is preheated. A corona treatment unit 28 provides a corona discharge which etches the upper surface of the fabric base layer thereby to provide a chemically active surface which enhances bonding of the extruded LDPE film with the fabric base layer. An oil heated roller 30 heated to approximately 90°C, is provided for preheating the fabric base layer to a temperature of approximately 30°C, through contact with roller 30. A water-chilled roller 32 is provided downstream of the extruder for cooling the coating layer and the fabric base layer.
Thereafter, the fabric base layer coated on one side thereof with the LDPE coating layer, is turned over and the other side thereof is similarly coated with a further LDPE coating layer thereby to coat both sides of the fabric base layer with 1 micron thick LDPE coating layers. In coating the fabric base layer with the second coating layer, the process described above is repeated by extruding the second coating layer in the form of a sheet element onto the uncoated side of the fabric base layer which now faces upwardly, thereby to coat it with the coating layer.
The Applicant envisages that the sheet material can be used as a shade cloth having good water-resistant properties.
