Abstract:
The inventive method provides highly desirable hand to various different types of fabrics through the initial immobilization of individual fibers within target fabrics and subsequent treatment through abrasion, sanding, or napping of at least a portion of the target fabric. Such a procedure includes nullnickingnull the immobilized fibers thereby permitting the fibers to produce a substantially balanced strength of the target fabric in the fill and warp directions while also providing the same degree of hand improvements as obtained with previous methods. Furthermore, this process also provides the unexpected improvement of non-pilling to synthetic fibers as the nullnickingnull of the immobilized fibers results in the lack of unraveling of fibers and thus the near impossibility of such fibers balling together to form unwanted pills on the fabric surface. Fabrics treated by this process are also contemplated within this invention.

The inventive method provides highly desirable hand to various different types of fabrics through the initial immobilization of individual fibers within target fabrics and subsequent treatment through abrasion, sanding, or napping of at least a portion of the target fabric. Such a procedure includes “nicking” the immobilized fibers thereby permitting the fibers to produce a substantially balanced strength of the target fabric in the fill and warp directions while also providing the same degree of hand improvements as obtained with previous methods. Furthermore, this process also provides the unexpected improvement of non-pilling to synthetic fibers as the “nicking” of the immobilized fibers results in the lack of unraveling of fibers and thus the near impossibility of such fibers balling together to form unwanted pills on the fabric surface. Fabrics treated by this process are also contemplated within this invention.
Abstract:
A textile substrate for seat covers that may be woven or knit fabric, especially weft raschel fabric, or Malimo fabric contains 45 to 65% in weight of natural fibers at least 40% in weight of which is wool and 5 to 25% in weight ramie. It contains 35 to 55% in weight of synthetic fibers such as polypropylene, polyamide, polyacrylic, aramide, and especially polyester. In a woven or knit fabric the warp may consist of synthetic fiber and the weft of a mixture of wool and ramie fiber, or vice versa, or in both warp and weft threads of wool and ramie as well as threads of synthetic fiber may be used.
Abstract:
This invention relates to an elastic yarn an elastomeric core, and a substantially inextensible yarn made of linen and/or ramie and/or hemp helically wound about the elastomeric core at a predetermined number of windings per length unit of elastic yarn, wherein, for each metric count Nm, the number of windings is set between two values indicated by two curves (12, 13) which can be expressed according to exponential laws, for example, with the same exponent, i.e. according to equations of the form T=K (1000Nm) 0,327 with K between 20 and 50. In particular, an intermediate curve 11 is such that, by choosing for a given metric count a number of windings proximate to curve 11, this best feature balance is obtained. The elastic yarn according to the invention provides elasticized fabrics a better surface regularity than well -know elasticized fabrics.
Abstract:
A process for manufacturing ramie fabric and the fabric. The process comprising the following step: making blended yarn from ramie fiber with Nm>2500 and its carrier water- soluble fiber, weaving the yarn into fabric after sizing in lower temperature, then removing the water-soluble fiber from the fabric by alkali deweighting in printing and dyeing finishing process, obtaining the fabric formed by the yarn with Nm>160.
Abstract:
Ein Gewebe zur Herstellung von Arbeitsschutzkleidung weist einen Zwirn auf, der zumindest einen ersten Schenkel aufweist, der einen Kern aus einer ausgeschrumpften, hochfesten, synthetischen Faser und einen Mantel aus einer flammhemmend ausgerüsteten cellulosischen Naturfaser aufweist.
Abstract:
Dyed fabric compositions have now been discovered that often have a balanced combination of desirable properties. The dyed fabric comprises one or more elastic fibers wherein the elastic fibers comprise the reaction product of at least one ethylene olefin block polymer and at least one crosslinking agent. Often the fabrics are characterized by a color change of greater than or equal to about 3.0 according to AATCC evaluation after a first wash by AATCC61-2003-2A.
