SUEDE WOVEN FABRIC AND A PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

ABSTRACTA suede woven fabric and a process for its manu-facture are described. The fabric has a warp yarn ofpolyester textured, polyester filament or polyester spunyarn and a unique weft yarn, the surface portions of whichare cut to form piles. For making the fabric, the weftyarn used is a single ply made from two kinds of compositefilaments, each composite filament consisting of a pluralityof island monofilaments randomly distributed in a polymericsea component having a solubility different from the islandmonofilaments. After the fabric is woven, the polymericsea component is removed to leave the monofilaments. Thenportions of these monofilaments on a surface of the fabricare cut and raised to form the piles.
