What's the difference between interfolded and interlock?
Interfolded
Definition:
(p. a.) Intertwined; interlocked; clasped together.
Example Sentences:

Interlock
Definition:
(v. i.) To unite, embrace, communicate with, or flow into, one another; to be connected in one system; to lock into one another; to interlace firmly.
(v. t.) To unite by locking or linking together; to secure in place by mutual fastening.
