A single-strand yarn includes a plurality of intimately associated staple fibers made from N strands of multi-filaments by stretching and controlled breaking, and then spun by a spinning process, where N is a natural number. Within the single-strand yarn of a sampling length according to the invention, a ratio of the number of the staple fibers, whose length is equal to or greater than 60% of a setup fiber length to the total number of the staple fibers, is equal to or greater than 60%. The sampling length is equal to or less than 10 meters. The setup fiber length is equal to or larger than 65 mm. The dispersion of the weight distribution in the average length of the single-strand yarn according to the invention is equal to or less than 60%.

A fabric having a first side and a second side and comprising weft yarns and warp yarns woven together in pattern. At least some of the weft, or warp, yarns float over a number of warp yarns, or weft yarns, and below a number of warp yarns, or weft yarns, to provide weft, or warp, over portions on the first side and under portions on the second side. The under portions and/or over portions of the yarns form loops. At least some of the yarns that form the loops are conjugate yarns comprising a plurality of filaments that are separable, i.e., splittable into sub-filaments. The loops of the conjugate yarns extend for a length of at least three adjacent warp, or weft, yarns.

A textile with high weave density which comprises a main-yarn made of a Japanese paper yarn and a sub-yarn thinner than the main-yarn interwoven with each other, wherein the textile has a weave texture structure including warps A and wefts A made of the main-yarn, and warps B and wefts B made of the sub-yarn, wherein in the weave texture structure, warp rows have a repeating row structure where a plurality of warps B are located between two warps A and weft rows have a repeating row structure where a plurality of wefts B are located between two wefts A, and wherein the warps A and the wefts A cross each other in a plain weave texture structure.

A fabric having an improved winding property, and more particularly to a fabric having an improved winding property, which simultaneously has an excellent winding property and excellent mechanical properties and exhibits an effect of preventing dye migration in fabric coating, and a commodity including the same.

A bimorph meta fiber is formed through spinning of two antagonistic polymer melts, one of which contains pre-compounded optical nanostructures, into an eccentric sheath-core configuration or a side-by-side key-lock configuration. The bimorph meta fiber is capable of an adaptive regulation of the infrared radiation responsive to humidity level deviation from a comfort zone or perspiration level of the wearer of the garment fabricated from the meta fibers. The bimorph meta fibers are humidity/heat trained to attain dynamical environmentally responsive behavior to maintain the humidity/thermal comfort zone at various the humidity level fluctuations.
