Title:

WOVEN/KNIT FABRIC INCLUDING CRIMPED FIBER AND BECOMING RUGGED UPON HUMIDIFICATION, PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME, AND TEXTILE PRODUCT

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2006/041200

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

A woven/knit fabric which becomes rugged upon humidification and loses the ruggedness upon drying. The fabric comprises: crimped fibers (A) whose percentage crimp decreases upon humidification; and fibers (B) comprising non-crimped fibers and/or crimped fibers whose percentage crimp does not substantially change upon humidification. The percentage change in ruggedness of this woven/knit fabric as calculated from the thickness of the dry fabric (TD) and the thickness of the humidified fabric (TW) using the following equation: Percentage change in ruggedness (%) = ((TW-TD)/TD)×100 is 5% or higher.
