Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0853152A1] In the method for producing a fabric that is extendible in both the warp and weft directions and which exhibits colour effects, the warp and weft yarns being synthetic yarns that have been subjected a false twist type texturing treatment to render them both voluminous and extendible, the textured yarns forming the warp and/or the weft are dyed prior to forming into the fabric under conditions such that the yarns can contract during the dyeing operation. The weave of the fabric is designed such that the raw fabric is decontextured in the warp and the weft with respect to the desired density in the finished fabric. It then involves carrying out a weaving operation while maintaining the warp and weft yarns under tension. After the weaving operation, the raw fabric is washed at a temperature of below 100 degrees C to avoid washing out of the colourants, then subjected to a thermal finishing treatment by passage on a tenter frame, these operations being carried out under conditions which cause a contraction of the crimp of the yarn which in turn causes a retraction of the fabric in both the warp and the weft directions.
