Definitions
- the present invention relates to a woven fabric and articles made of the same. More specifically, it relates to a woven fabric for use as covers such as a building material cover, etc., sheets such as a waterproof sheet, etc., or sheet-shaped materials such as a tent, a packaging bag, a flexible container, etc., and articles made of the same.
- a sheet-shaped woven fabric is produced by weaving fiber bundles obtained by sizing multifilaments, and for the weaving, the treatment of the multifilaments to cause an oil (antistatic agent) to adhere to their surfaces and the twisting of the multifilaments are essential.
- the twisting is carried out, however, fiber bundles in a woven fabric are liable to be non-uniform, and as a result, it has been difficult to obtain a woven fabric having excellent properties, in particular, high tensile strength and a low elongation percentage.
- the woven fabric surface is treated to impart it with water repellency.
- the thus-obtained waterproofing woven fabric has a problem that it suffers absorption of water into between monofilaments and infiltration of water into end surfaces or damaged portions of the woven fabric.
- each multifilament is treated to impart it with water repellency as is found, for example, in a base fabric formed of polyethylene terephthalate (PTE) fibers obtained by using a fluorine-containing water repellent as a spinning oil (for example, see JP-A-6-136622) or in the treatment of a fiber bundle formed of polyester-based fibers constituting a base fabric of tarpaulin with an emulsion that mainly contains a fluorine-containing water repellent and a polyester-based urethane (for example, see JP-A-7-173774).
- PTE polyethylene terephthalate
