A process is described wherein pile yarn is woven with cotton weft and warp yarns to produce terry fabrics, such as towels. The fabric is then washed in warm water to dissolve the PVA fibers. The amount of fibers dissolved, depends upon the count of the yarn or yarns used. By dissolving the PVA fibers, a hollow air space is produced throughout the pile yarn, corresponding to an increase in the air space in the pile yarn. By increasing the air space in the pile yarn, the resulting towels are softer and bulkier than standard cotton towels. The present invention further relates to pile yarn in terry woven fabric (warp yarn), or weft yarn, in the case of flat fabrics.

The present invention relates to a pile fabric including an acrylic synthetic fiber at a napped portion, the acrylic synthetic fiber is obtained by spinning a spinning solution including 90 to 99 parts by weight of a polymer A and 1 to 10 parts by weight of a polymer B. The polymer A is a polymer obtained by polymerizing a composition A including 40 to 97 wt % of acrylonitrile, 0 to 5 wt % of a sulfonic acid-containing monomer and 3 to 60 wt % of another copolymerizable monomer. The polymer B is obtained by polymerizing a composition B including 0 to 70 wt % of acrylonitrile, 20 to 90 wt % of acrylic ester and 10 to 40 wt % of a sulfonic acid-containing monomer, and the polymer B is a polymer to be dissolved in a mixed solvent composed of water and at least one organic solvent selected from the group consisting of N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide and acetone. The acrylic synthetic fiber forming the napped portion is dyed or discharge-printed at least partially, and the dyed or discharge-printed acrylic synthetic fiber has an apparent specific gravity in a range of 0.8 to 1.1.

The present invention provides fabrics with cut loop pile comprising a core yarn of a synthetic multifilament yarn and covering yarn of a split microfiber yarn and a manufacturing method thereof. The core yarn at the section where said loops are cut is outwardly protruded from the covering yarn, wherein the synthetic multifilament core yarn has been separated into multiple filaments to function as hooks. The fabrics with cut loop pile show superior characteristics in polishing properties, sliding properties, water absorption properties, rapid drying properties and feeling of touch since polishing can be performed while easily catching foreign substances such as extremely minute dust particles or human hairs and the like by the hook-shaped multifilaments of the core yarn. Thus the fabrics with cut loop pile according to the present invention can be used usefully in products such as various kind of mats, towels, bathroom products, and the like including dishcloths and mops.

A precoat composition, a carpet composition comprising the inventive precoat composition layer and methods of making same are disclosed. The inventive precoat composition comprises a thermoplastic dispersion and a filler. The carpet composition comprising the inventive precoat layer exhibits exceptional wet delamination strength.

A process is described wherein pile yarn is woven with cotton weft and warp yarns to produce terry fabrics, such as towels. The fabric is then washed in warm water to dissolve the PVA fiber. The amount of fibers dissolved, depends upon the count of the yarn or yarns used. By dissolving the PVA fibers, a hollow air space is produced throughout the pile yarn, corresponding to an increase in the air space in the pile yarn. By increasing the in space in the pile yarn, the resulting towels are softer and bulkier than standard cotton towels. The present invention further relates to pile yarn in terry woven fabric (warp yarn), or weft yarn, in the case of flat fabrics.
