Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, fabrics for airbags are usually coated, so there is a problem of lack of softness and lower storage properties.
In addition, if the fineness of the threads constituting the fabric is reduced in order to improve softness, there is a problem that the tear strength decreases

Embodiment 1~4

[0060] Using the polyester multifilaments shown in Table 1, fabrics were woven with a plain weave structure using a water-jet loom in a non-twisted state so that the cover factors in Table 1 were obtained to obtain gray fabrics. Emulsion-based silicone resin (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) was coated and processed on the gray fabric by the floating knife method while the doctor blade was in contact with the back surface of the fabric.

[0061] These airbag fabrics are excellent in softness, have small seams and good airtightness when the airbag is inflated, and are particularly suitable for curtain-shaped side airbags.

Embodiment 5

[0063] Using the polyester multifilaments shown in Table 1, fabrics were woven with a plain weave structure using a water-jet loom in a non-twisted state so that the cover factors in Table 1 were obtained to obtain gray fabrics. Next, on the surface to be coated, the plain woven fabric was pressurized (calendered) with a heating roll at 150° C., and the emulsion-based silicone resin ( Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) was coated and processed on this gray fabric so that the solid content resin weight was as shown in Table 1.

[0064] The fabric for an airbag is excellent in flexibility, has a small seam gap and good airtightness when the airbag is inflated, and is particularly suitable for a curtain-shaped side airbag.

Embodiment 6

[0068] The warp and weft are polyester multifilaments with untwisted 566dtex / 140 filaments (single fiber fineness 4.0dtex), tensile strength 7.6g / dtex, and boiling water shrinkage rate 1.9%. , make it pass through a hot water tank (preparation layer, first layer, second layer), and then use a suction tumble dryer to perform drying, setting and finishing, thereby obtaining a non-coated airbag fabric. Table 1 shows the physical property evaluation results of the uncoated airbag fabric.

[0069] The fabric for an airbag is excellent in flexibility, has a small seam gap and good airtightness when the airbag is inflated, and is particularly suitable for a curtain-shaped side airbag.

Abstract

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a woven fabric which is for airbags for protecting an occupant in an automobile or the like and which has excellent flexibility, excellent tearstrength, and excellent tear elongation. The solution therefor is to provide a woven fabric for airbags, which contains a polyester multifilament wherein the total fineness of the polyester multifilament is set in the range of 140-580 dtex, the number of the filaments is set in the range of 96-192, the difference in total fineness between warp yarns and weft yarns constituting the woven fabric isset to 5 dtex or less, and the weave density of the warp yarns is set lower than the weave density of the weft yarns.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an airbag fabric for protecting occupants of automobiles and the like, which is excellent in flexibility, tear strength, and tear elongation. Background technique [0002] In recent years, fabrics made of synthetic fibers have been widely used as airbag fabrics for protecting the occupants of automobiles. In particular, fabrics made of nylon threads, polyester threads, etc. are often sewn into bags and used (for example, Patent Documents 1 to 4). [0003] However, fabrics for airbags are generally coated, and thus have problems of lack of flexibility and reduced storage properties. In addition, if the fineness of the yarn constituting the woven fabric is reduced in order to improve flexibility, there is a problem that the tear strength decreases.
