A textile material comprises a plurality of yarns, the yarns containing an intimate blend of dyed polyphenylene sulfide fibers and cellulosic fibers. The dyed polyphenylene sulfide fibers comprising a disperse dye that is distributed substantially evenly across the cross-sectional area of the fibers. A method for dyeing textile materials containing polyphenylene sulfide fibers comprises the steps of (a) providing a textile material comprising yarns which contain an intimate blend of polyphenylene sulfide fibers and cellulosic fibers, (b) providing a dye liquor comprising a liquid medium and a disperse dye, (c) applying the dye liquor to the textile material, (d) heating the textile material under ambient atmosphere to a temperature sufficient to evaporate substantially all of the liquid medium from the textile material, and (e) heating the textile material under ambient atmosphere to a temperature of about 180° C. or more to fix the disperse dye to the polyphenylene sulfide fibers.

The present invention relates to a light shielding net, which can improve productivity by facilitating a weaving process, can be wound by a winding device due to a high winding strength, and can express various colors, thereby adjusting a light shielding amount and improving a design aesthetic sense. To this end, a warp yarn is made of a PE monofilament, the weft yarn is made of a PE film, and the two warp yarns are repeatedly woven in a Leno weave form surrounding each weft yarn.

Flame resistant fabrics formed with a combination of body yarns and stretch yarns that exhibit excellent physical and thermal properties. The body yarns are formed at least in part with flame resistant materials. The stretch yarns are corespun yarns having an elastic core surrounded by a fiber sheath formed at least in part with flame resistant materials. The fiber sheath protects the elastic core from direct exposure to heat and flame that would otherwise cause the core to degrade or melt.

Wool fabrics are disclosed that have improved stretch properties. The wool fabrics can be used in numerous and diverse applications, such as to make uniforms. The fabric can be designed to have greater than 15%, such as greater than about 20% stretch in one or more directions, such as in the fill direction. In one aspect, longer wool fibers are used in the fabric in order to increase durability.

A method of loading a carding machine for the manufacture of yarn. The method includes deriving a component load schedule with a plurality of discrete loading steps. The series of discrete loading steps comprise at least a first load amount and a second load amount, wherein the sum of the first load amount and the second load amount is a first overall load amount. The method includes loading a first amount of a first component equal to the first load amount of a discrete loading step, loading a second amount of a second component equal to the second load amount of the discrete loading step and repeating the steps of loading a first amount and loading a second amount for each of the discrete loading steps.
