A tubular woven fabric is useful as a transport hose for a fluid or a powder, as a protective hose for linear bodies such as wires, cables and conduits, as a tubular filter, or as a base material of a vascular prosthesis. The tubular woven fabric includes warp yarns and weft yarns interwoven with each other, the tubular woven fabric having an outer diameter with a variation of within 10% along the warp direction and satisfying the formula:
(L2−L1)/L1≤0.1.

Techniques for producing an article having hollow structures are described herein. The disclosed techniques include weaving a plurality of yarns to form a woven fabric, wherein the plurality of yarns each comprise a dissolvable core, and the dissolvable core comprises polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) having a water solubility; neutralizing an alkaline before drying the woven fabric to maintain the water solubility of the PVA; and washing the woven fabric or a garment made by the woven fabric to at least partially remove the dissolvable core.

Described herein is a method for making fibrous water-soluble unit doses utilizing a repeating nested pattern.

In one aspect, the present disclosure provides an article formed of a knitted component. The article may be an upper for an article of footwear. The knitted component may have a first portion and a second portion, where the first portion of the knitted component at least partially forms a foot-receiving portion of the upper, where the second portion of the knitted component at least partially forms a strap of the upper, where the strap includes a first edge and a second edge secured to the first portion of the knitted component, and where the strap includes a third edge that extends from the first edge to the second edge.

Aspects herein are directed to a spacer textile comprising a first layer, a second layer, and a plurality of tie yarns that interconnect the first layer and the second layer. The spacer textile further comprises one or more discrete areas from which the first layer is absent along with a portion of the length of the tie yarns in those areas.

Provided is a beauty care pack including: a support; and a membrane that is laminated on the support so as to be separated by moisture, formed by electrospinning a polymer material, a water-soluble polymer material and a functional material, and a dry type, in which the functional material is dissolved by moisture, to thereby enable an easy and convenient storage and package, and enable a convenient use since a dry sheet is attached to the face.

A water dispersible sulfopolyester is provided wherein the sulfopolyester comprises: (a) residues of one or more dicarboxylic acids; (b) at least 10 mole percent of residues of at least one sulfomonomer; and (c) residues of two or more diols, wherein said diols comprise ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol, and wherein the sulfopolyester exhibits a glass transition temperature of at least 58° C., wherein the sulfopolyester comprises a diethylene glycol to ethylene glycol molar ratio of less than 0.65, wherein the sulfopolyester contains substantially equimolar proportions of acid moiety repeating units (100 mole percent) to hydroxy moiety repeating units (100 mole percent), and wherein all stated mole percentages are based on the total of all acid and hydroxy moiety repeating units being equal to 200 mole percent. Woven and nonwoven articles comprising the water dispersible sulfopolyester are also provided.

This disclosure relates generally to the preparation of eco-friendly engineered fabric, and more particularly to terry fabric and variations thereof. In one embodiment, a terry fabric is comprised of a soluble fiber blend, blended with cotton fibers, where the soluble fibers are dissolved in a caustic or enzyme solution to create highly porous yarns.

A water dispersible sulfopolyester is provided wherein the sulfopolyester comprises: (a) residues of one or more dicarboxylic acids; (b) at least 10 mole percent of residues of at least one sulfomonomer; and (c) residues of two or more diols, wherein the diols comprise 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol and diethylene glycol, wherein the sulfopolyester exhibits a glass transition temperature of at least 57° C., wherein the sulfopolyester contains substantially equimolar proportions of acid moiety repeating units (100 mole percent) to hydroxy moiety repeating units (100 mole percent), and wherein all stated mole percentages are based on the total of all acid and hydroxy moiety repeating units being equal to 200 mole percent. Woven articles and nonwoven articles are also provided.

In one aspect, the present disclosure provides an article formed of a knitted component. The article may be an upper for an article of footwear. The knitted component may have a first portion and a second portion, where the first portion of the knitted component at least partially forms a foot-receiving portion of the upper, where the second portion of the knitted component at least partially forms a strap of the upper, where the strap includes a first edge and a second edge secured to the first portion of the knitted component, and where the strap includes a third edge that extends from the first edge to the second edge.
