Manufacturing method of filament corduroy fabric |
(57) The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a corduroy fabric using
a microfiber or ultrafine microfiber filament yarn, which has the drapability and
elasticity and soft handle feel peculiar to the filament. This method comprises the
steps of weaving a cotton or synthetic yarn into a corduroy texture and cutting the
pile warp of the corduroy texture to form wales, the method being characterized in
that either filament yarns as a warp and a weft, or a filament yarn as the warp and
a cotton yarn as the weft, are used, and after the weaving step but before the cutting
step, a shrinking step of a grey fabric is additionally performed such that the space
between a bottom yarn and a pile yarn is formed. Thus, the filament corduroy fabric
of the present invention can be used in a far wider range of applications than the
existing staple corduroy fabric.
