A cushion material 10 for hot pressing includes a cushion part 1. The cushion part 1 includes a woven fabric 5, in which a twisted yarn is used for at least one of warp 5a or weft 5b, and a polymer material 6 adhered to a surface of a fiber forming the woven fabric 5. The twisted yarn used for at least one of the warp 5a or the weft 5b of the woven fabric 5 is formed by twisting a plurality of texturized yarns made of glass fiber.

A homogeneous composite substrate includes a woven cloth and at least one fiber membrane. The woven cloth includes a plurality of first fibers. The fiber membrane is disposed on at least one surface of the woven cloth, and the fiber membrane includes a plurality of second fibers, in which a material of the first fibers and a material of the second fibers are the same, a fiber diameter of each first fiber is larger than or equal to 20 ?m and smaller than or equal to 130 ?m, and a fiber diameter of each second fiber is larger than or equal to 3 ?m and smaller than or equal to 10 ?m.

Ticking having excellent flexibility is described. A woven fabric is obtained by using a multifilament having a monofilament fineness of not more than 0.5 dtex, the number of filaments of 100 or more and a total fineness of not more than 50 dtex and used as ticking. The woven fabric can be made of a polyester.

Provided is a medical fabric that is thin, and has both high tear strength and low water permeability. The medical fabric is characterized in that multifilament yarns having a total fineness of 7-80 dtex are disposed in the warp and weft, the single yarn fineness of at least one of the multifilament yarns among the warp and weft is 0.5 dtex or less, the twist factor A of the weft is 50-2,000, the thickness is 10-90 m, and the water permeability both before and after puncture by a needle is 300 cc/min/cm.sup.2 or less.

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.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a hook and loop fastener that not only has excellent engaging properties but is also flexible, generates little ripping noise when the male part and female part are separated, is excellent for sewing to fabric or the like, and is very durable, and a textile product comprising the hook and loop fastener. A hook and loop fastener comprises a fabric A that has a resin layer and a napped fabric B that has a resin layer containing a napped portion and a ground structure portion.

A water-repellent fibre (300) for a yarn and/or a fabric or textile is provided. The fibre (300) comprises a hydrophobic material. The fibre (300) also comprises a shape or configuration comprising one or more micro and/or nano-sized structures (310).
