| abstract |
More than 40 wt. % of the yarns forming this textile are single fibers having a single-fiber degree of 1.1 denier or less. The same or different long fiber threads having a total fiber degree of 120 denier or less are arranged as the warps and woofs. The coefficients Wp and Wf of sectional superposition of the warps and wefts, satisfy both the conditions (a) 1.30 » Wp » 1.10 and (b) 1.20 » Wf » 0.85. This high density textile has a great tear strength despite it is thin and light. The textile also has an excellent water-proofness. Therefore, it can be used not only for a ski wear, a windbreaker, an outdoor wear, a coat, a working cloth, and a surgical operating gown, but also widely used for a shower curtain, a table cloth, a cloth for umbrella, and others. |
