Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2500455A1] Provided are a pile fabric whose pile fibers are inhibited from falling off without impairing the texture by fusing only a specific area of the pile fabric, and a method of producing the same. A pile fabric of the present invention is a pile fabric 5, including: a ground structure; and pile fibers 2 that are intertwined with ground yarns 1 constituting the ground structure and napped on a front surface of the ground structure, wherein the pile fibers 2 comprise at least one selected from the group consisting of acrylic fibers and acrylic-based fibers and have a softening point lower than a softening point of fibers constituting the ground structure. Among the pile fibers 2 intertwined with the ground yarns 1 constituting the ground structure, at least part of the pile fibers 2 located outside of the ground yarns 1 constituting the ground structure are fused but the pile fibers 2 napped on the front surface of the ground structure are not fused. Further, a method of producing a pile fabric of the present invention includes a process of performing a contact heating/pressurization at a temperature equal to or higher than the softening point of the pile fibers 2 and lower than the softening point of the fibers constituting the ground structure from a back surface side of the ground structure.
