The invention provides a knitted functional fabric for wicking moisture away from the body of a user. The fabric comprises a technical face formed from a yarn; a technical back formed from a yarn; and a spacer formed from a yarn that connects the technical face to the technical back. The technical face and the technical back comprise a hydrophilic yarn.

A metalized fabric and method for metallization of fabric. The fabric is formed using two threads with different affinities for metallization, but which threads are not metalized prior to forming into the fabric. The threads will typically be woven using an unbalanced weave to provide one side of the fabric with a resultant greater amount of metallization than the other but this is not required. Once the resultant fabric is metalized, it will typically be more suitable for consistent color dying than fabric which was formed from both metalized and unmetallized threads.

A composite wiping non-woven fabric with a layered structure, having an upper surface layer, a middle fiber layer, and a lower surface layer; the upper surface layer and the lower surface layer of the composite wiping non-woven fabric are formed by melt-blown fibers, and the middle fiber layer is formed at least by viscose fibers: a weight of the middle fiber layer is greater than or equal to 65% of a total weight of the composite wiping non-woven fabric; there are fiber interlacing and intertwining areas between the upper surface layer and the middle fiber layer, as well as between the lower surface layer and the middle fiber layer.

An industrial fabric that includes: an upper surface side fabric including upper surface side warps and upper surface side wefts; a lower surface side fabric including lower surface side warps and lower surface side wefts; and binding warps that bind the upper surface side fabric and the lower surface side fabric and that constitute a portion of the upper surface side fabric and a portion of the lower surface side fabric, includes: first warp pairs that are each formed by a pair of binding warps that are vertically adjacent to each other; and second warp pairs that are formed by the upper surface side warps and the lower surface side warps that are vertically adjacent to each other.
