The present invention relates to a fabric containing a modacrylic fiber A and a cellulosic fiber, wherein the modacrylic fiber A contains an infrared absorber inside the fiber, and the fabric is dyed with at least a yellow cationic dye, a yellow reactive dye, and a yellow disperse dye. The fabric can be produced by dyeing a fabric containing a modacrylic fiber A and a cellulosic fiber with a cationic dye, a reactive dye, and a disperse dye to exhibit a fluorescent yellow color. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a fabric with excellent arc resistance and visibility, a method for producing the same, and a clothing item using the same.

Flame resistant fabrics that comply with applicable thermal requirements (e.g., char length, after flame, thermal shrinkage, etc.) but only include thermally stable fibers in yarns extending in a single fabric direction (warp or weft). The yarns extending in the other direction (warp or weft) are devoid of thermally stable fibers.

Fabrics and garments are disclosed that have dual protection against molten metal splashes and electrical arc flashes. The fabrics can be made from spun yarns containing an intimate blend of fibers. The fibers contained in each yarn can include wool fibers, flame resistant cellulose fibers, and nylon fibers. In one aspect, relatively long wool fibers are incorporated into the yarns.

Disclosed herein is a light transmissive fiber integrated knit textile for use on consumer electronic products. The knit textile is depicted to be constructed with light transmissive fibers integration through a weave-in/inlay knit technique with a flat-bed knitting construction. The light transmissive knitted textile is also tethered to a portable electronic device, allowing for the light transmitting fibers knitted into the fabric to define a lighting display on said fabric.

Woven fabric made of cotton yarn or regenerated cellulose fibers yarn or a combination thereof and polyesters. The woven fabric includes forming 500-1500 thread count per inch of fine textile fabric. The woven textile fabric has 50-89 ENDS PER INCH warp yarns per inch of cotton yarn or regenerated cellulose fiber yarn or a combination thereof (e.g., a combination thereof means cotton and regenerated cellulose fiber blended yarn) and of 20-40 NE (warp yarn count), wherein single yarn per dent may be setup in the reed apparatus of the warp of the loom apparatus. Additionally, the woven textile fabric comprises of 50-91 picks per inch in the weft in which each pick contains atleast 2-24 multifilament polyester yarns. The picks are woven into the fabric using multi-filament weft yarns during a single pick insertion event of a pick insertion apparatus of a loom. Additionally, the warp to weft ratio of the woven fabric is atleast 1:5.

A fabric weaving method and apparatus is disclosed. The method includes forming a fabric where the warp ends of the fabric are made of multifilament polyester yarns and the weft picks are made of cotton or regenerated cellulose fiber or linen fiber or a combination thereof. The woven textile fabric has 50-160 EPI of multifilament polyester yarns of denier within a range of 75 D-200 D with 7-250 filaments in each polyester yarn, and one or more yarns per dent is setup in the reed apparatus of the warp of the loom apparatus. Further, the woven textile fabric includes of 50-91 picks per inch of cotton or regenerated cellulose fibre or linen fiber or a combination thereof and of 20-50 count (NE). Furthermore, the total cover factor of the woven textile fabric is 10-38, and the warp cover factor is 8-19 and the weft cover factor is 10-19.

Provided is a fabric for personal protective equipment to protect a wearer from flame and/or arc flash, the fabric being three-layer fabric for personal protective equipment and including an outer layer, an inner layer, and an intermediate layer, wherein the intermediate layer is an embossed layer having a three-dimensional embossed dot or stripe shape, and is in the form of a woven fabric including a warp yarn and a filling yarn that are interlocked with each other, wherein the warp yarn is a first composite spun yarn including a meta-aramid fiber, a flame retardant cellulose fiber, and an antistatic fiber and includes at least one of a meta-aramid filament yarn and a flame retardant cellulose filling yarn, and the filling yarn is a second composite spun yarn including a meta-aramid fiber, a flame retardant cellulose fiber, and an antistatic fiber, wherein the warp yarn and the filling yarn have different thermal shrinkage rates from each other. Personal protective equipment formed by using these special yarns and fabric structures meet the requirements of HRC levels 2 and 4, thereby not only effectively protecting a wearer from flame and/or arc flash, but also providing excellent durability, lightness, and high activity functions.
