Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a tire ply steel fabric having specified weft cords, a rubber covered tire ply comprising the tire ply steel fabric, tires comprising the rubber covered tire ply, and related processes for producing a tire ply steel fabric with specific weft cords and for producing a rubber covered tire ply comprising the tire ply steel fabric. The tire ply steel fabric comprises a plurality of steel warp cords and a plurality of weft cords each weft cord having a core-sheath construction wherein the core comprises at least one filament of a non-metallic material having a specified Eb and the sheath comprises a different non-metallic material having a specified Eb that is lower than the Eb of the core material.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present disclosure is a performance fabric. The performance fabric includes a plurality of warp yarns extending along a warp direction. The warp yarn includes a first warp yarn and a second warp yarn that is directly adjacent to the first warp yarn. The plurality of warp yarns are blended staple warp yarns each of which has cotton fibers and regenerated cellulosic fibers. The performance fabric includes a plurality of weft yarns interwoven with the plurality of warp yarns to define a woven fabric structure. The plurality of weft yarns includes at least one yarn comprising thermoplastic fibers or a blend yarn comprising regenerated cellulosic fibers.

Abstract:
Methods for spinning, weaving, and finishing fabric and/or cloth containing cotton fibers are disclosed. The methods of the invention are performed at lower ambient, solution and/or working temperatures than is previously known in the art. The reduced temperature processing improves various qualities of the resulting textile products and fabrics and lowers costs of operating the processing facility.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fabric which can attach to itself by use of hand pressure, and methods for its manufacture. The invention provides a fabric having at least part of its surface covered with small monofilament loops. The self-attaching fabric having at least part of its surface covered with small monofilament hooks which removably engage each other when the surface is pressed into contact with another similar surface to retain together the two portions of the fabric until they are separated by a peeling action.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a dye scavenging substrate which comprises the steps of: (a) providing an absorbent substrate; (b) passing the substrate through a bath containing an alkaline solution of a dye scavenging compound selected from: (i) a N-trisubstituted ammonium-2-hydroxy-3-halopropyl compound having the general formula (I), or (ii) a salt of epoxy propyl ammonium having the general formula (II), or a combination thereof; (c) subjecting the substrate to a pressure of from about 0.04 MPa to about 0.40 MPa; (d) wrapping the substrate in a water impermeable material and rotating the substrate for a period of from about 12 hours to about 60 hours; (e) removing the water impermeable material and passing the substrate through a bath containing an acid solution; (f) subjecting the substrate to a pressure of from about 0.15 MPa to about 0.40 MPa; and (g) drying the substrate.
Abstract:
La présente invention concerne un tapis présentant des fils brillants, comprenant un tissu présentant une série de fils de trame, insérés de manière principalement perpendiculaire dans et entrelacés avec une série de fils de chaîne principalement parallèles, au moins 0,1% desdits fils de trame étant brillant, les fils brillants présentant une brillance d'au moins 70 unités de brillance, comme mesuré sous un angle d'incidence de 45° selon la norme ASTM D2457, 10% à 40% desdits fils de trame comprennent des polymères brillants et que 60% à 90% desdits fils de trame comprennent une ou plusieurs fibres naturelles. En outre, l'invention concerne un procédé pour la fabrication d'un tapis présentant des fils brillants et une utilisation du procédé pour la fabrication d'un tapis selon la présente invention.
Abstract:
To provide a towel product capable of maintaining features of honeycomb weave of the conventional technique as well as providing improved water absorbency, lightness, and a good touch feeling more than those of the towels produced by the conventional technique. The towel of the present invention basically has a typical honeycomb weave structure. A first feature thereof is to use hollow yarns having a hollow ratio of a range between 30% and 60%. A shape of hollow yarns can be maintained. With the above described structure, the water absorbency, the lightness, the good touch feeling, and a drying property can be improved. A second feature is to use hollow yarns made by twisting fibers of raw cottons having an effective fiber length of a range between 25 mm and 42 mm. This contributes to maintaining of the durability.

A woven fabric with continuous filament, high bulk yarns on the fabric first side is disclosed, and related method and apparatus of manufacturing same.
Abstract:
To provide a pile woven fabric that has both of lightness and thinness almost equivalent to those of a typical clothing fabric and water absorbency property, heat-retaining property, breathability, good touch feeling, etc. of towel cloth. The pile woven fabric has pile height lower than the typical towel cloth (comparison example) (first structure). The pile woven fabric has a pile formed of a cotton yarn that has a yarn count finer than that of the comparison example (second structure). The pile woven fabric has pile density higher than that of the comparison example (third structure). In the pile woven fabric, the cotton yarn is twisted together with a water-soluble yarn such that the water-soluble yarn is twisted in a direction opposite to a twisting direction of the cotton yarn, and, after weaving processing, the water-soluble yarn is removed to induce reverse twisting of the cotton yarn (fourth structure).
