A woven fabric for a mop cloth contains: at least one wrap yarn broadwise woven by a plurality of fibers, plural first fiber yarns, and plural second fiber yarns. Each second fiber yarn is a textured yarn, and each first fiber yarn is a grey yarn. A length of each first fiber yarn is equal to or is more than that of each second fiber yarn, such that two thread ends of each first fiber yarn extends out two sides of each at least one wrap yarn. Thereby, the woven fabric contains a single material or plural materials (such as the grey yarn with a predetermined hardness and the textured yarn with a predetermined flexibility) to absorb fluids and to scrape objects on the floor, thus enhancing cleaning capacity.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a commingled yarn that is capable of keeping a high level of dispersion of the continuous reinforcing fiber and the continuous resin fiber, moderately flexible, and less likely to cause fiber separation, and a commingled yarn a wind-up article and a woven fabric. The method for manufacturing a commingled yarn includes commingling a thermoplastic resin fiber having a treatment agent for the thermoplastic resin fiber on a surface thereof, and a continuous reinforcing fiber having a treatment agent for the continuous reinforcing fiber on a surface thereof, and heating the commingled fibers at a temperature in a range from a melting point of the thermoplastic resin composing the thermoplastic resin fiber, up to 30K higher than the melting point, wherein the thermoplastic resin has a product of the melting point thereof and a thermal conductivity thereof of 100 to 150, where the thermal conductivity is measured in compliance with ASTM D177, the continuous reinforcing fiber has an amount of the treatment agent therefore of 0.01 to 2.0% by weight thereof, and the thermoplastic resin fiber has an amount of the treatment agent therefor of 0.1 to 2.0% by weight thereof; where the melting point is given in Kelvins (K), and the thermal conductivity is given in W/m.Math.K.

A fabric comprising a warp component and a weft component. The warp component is made of a spun yarn that is 100% polyester fiber. The 100% polyester fiber spun yarn may be combined with one or more other yarns to form the warp component, such as a texturized polyester yarn but not limited thereto. Alternatively, the warp component is made of a spun yarn that is 100% acrylic fiber. The 100% acrylic fiber spun yarn may be combined with one or more other yarns to form the warp component, such as a texturized polyester yarn but not limited thereto. The weft component of the fabric may be formed of using one or more of manmade fibers and/or natural fibers. The fabric may be used to make bedding products.

A method and a system disclosed include drawing each of multiple synthetic yarns from a corresponding supply package to form an oriented yarn. Filaments within the oriented yarn are twisted and detwisted to provide texture thereto, to provide a low stability interlacing during weaving, and to intermingle the filaments, and a uniform air pressure is applied to the oriented yarn to provide a counter-twist. Also, a multi-pick yarn package is formed based on winding all formed oriented yarns, which serve as weft yarns forming adjacent substantially parallel yarns wound together, onto a spool. These weft yarns are simultaneously inserted in a single pick insertion event of a loom apparatus, and conveyed across a warp shed of the loom apparatus through a set of warp yarns. The set of warp yarns and the conveyed weft yarns are interlaced to produce an incremental length of a woven textile fabric.

A task is to provide a cloth which is excellent not only in tear strength but also in snagging resistance and wear resistance, and which preferably has design properties and stretchability, and a garment obtained using the cloth, and a solution to problem is a woven fabric containing two or more types of yarns, the woven fabric comprising a high strength yarn A having a yarn strength of 4.3 cN/dtex or more and a yarn B having a yarn strength which is smaller than that of the high strength yarn A, wherein the difference in total fineness between the high strength yarn A and the yarn B is 20 dtex or less.

Light-permeable multilayer composite film made of plastic as the surface coating of an article, wherein the composite film comprises at least one outer, at least partially light-permeable top layer optionally provided with a lacquer and at least one further layer arranged on the back of the top layer, wherein arranged on the back side of the top layer is at least one sheetlike, optically active textile layer, preferably a textile layer comprising threads made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and/or made of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), wherein the textile layer has light-transmitting, light-refracting and light-reflecting properties or a combination thereof and the transmission, refraction and reflection properties are such that illumination of the textile layer, in particular back side illumination of the textile layer, results in preferably uniformized light transmission through the top layer.

An article of apparel is disclosed that includes zones with a textile having a structure than changes or is otherwise modified by a physical stimulus, such as the presence of water or a temperature change, to modify a property of the textile. The zones may be along a center back area and/or side areas of the apparel, and the textile may increase in air permeability when exposed to water. In some embodiments, slits are formed in the textile.
