TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a knitted fabric, in particular to a knitted fabric with anti-linting effect. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, in the process of sewing into clothes, in order to prevent the lints of collar, cuff and foot from being scattered, generally, double-locking edge treatment is carried out on these parts. However, for some thicker fabrics, double-locking edge sewing is more difficult, the production efficiency is low, and the sewing thread will produce strong friction and irritation to the skin, affecting the wearability.
[0003] In order to overcome the above problems, people have carried out a lot of research. For example, Chinese patent document CN105133162A discloses a low-temperature Lycra double-sided knitted fabric, which feeds low-temperature Lycra yarn and textile fiber yarn into a mixed yarn at the same time, knits rib or double-rib structure, and the mixed yarns are mutually soluble and bonded, so that the fabric can be cut arbitrarily, the edge will not be scattered, the manufacturing cost is low, and the whole is flat and beautiful. However, after being washed and exposed to sunlight for many times, the performance of low-temperature Lycra decreases, the bonding points are easy to fall off, and the anti-linting durability needs to be further improved.
[0004] For example, Chinese patent document CN108866777A discloses a double-layer air layer pure separation random cutting fabric, which is knitted by 20D Japanese Asahi Kasei spandex and 40S / 1 Japanese Toyobo acrylic yarn on the upper and lower layers. The upper and lower layers are connected by spandex yarn, and the unique lock eye structure can not only achieve random cutting, but also solve the problem of edge curling after cutting. It is environmentally friendly and hygienic, but the loops in the upper and lower layers still have the possibility of falling off.
[0005] For example, Japanese patent document WO2009 / 011440 discloses a double-sided knitted fabric with anti-linting and anti-curling effect and a preparation method thereof. Non-elastic yarn and elastic yarn (polyurethane fiber) with a thermal deformation starting temperature of 150-190℃ are fed into a double-sided machine to knit together. The fineness ratio between the elastic yarn and the non-elastic yarn is 1:0.3-1:3.0, the warp density and weft density of the double-sided knitted fabric with elongation of 180% or more and elongation recovery rate of 92% or more are 5000 / inch2 or more, no edge sewing is needed, and the occurrence of linting and curling can be prevented. However, after being washed and exposed to sunlight for many times, the polyurethane fiber ages, and the anti-linting effect is weakened. SUMMARY
[0006] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the present application is to provide a knitted fabric which can be cut freely without using low-temperature melting spandex and has excellent anti-linting effect.
[0007] The technical solution of the present application is:
[0008] The present invention is a run-resistant knitted fabric comprising yarn A and yarn B, wherein yarn A is a non-polyurethane fiber, and the stitch length of yarn A and yarn B is La and Lb, respectively, characterized in that when yarn B is a high-temperature polyurethane fiber, La and Lb satisfy the following relationship: 2.0 < La / Lb < 3.0; and when yarn B is a non-polyurethane fiber, La and Lb satisfy the following relationship: La / Lb < 1.00.
[0009] The present invention controls the stitch length between yarn A and yarn B, so that the stitches of yarn B are locked and tightened by yarn A, and excellent run resistance is achieved even without using low-temperature spandex. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0010] The present invention is a run-resistant knitted fabric comprising yarn A and yarn B. Yarn A is a non-polyurethane fiber, and the type is not particularly limited, such as a polyester fiber, a polyamide fiber, or the like. Among them, the polyester fiber can be exemplified by polyethylene terephthalate fiber (PET), polybutylene terephthalate elastic fiber (PBT), polytrimethylene terephthalate elastic fiber (PTT), polybutylene terephthalate / polyethylene terephthalate composite fiber (PBT / PET), or polytrimethylene terephthalate / polyethylene terephthalate (PTT / PET) composite fiber, or the like. The polyamide fiber can be exemplified by polyamide 6 (NY6), polyamide 66 (NY66), or the like. In consideration of the dimensional stability of the knitted fabric, yarn A is preferably a yarn having a boiling water shrinkage of 20% or more or a yarn having a stretch recovery rate of 20% or more, so that the stitches of yarn B can be locked by yarn A, and the dimensional stability of the knitted fabric can be improved. Yarn A is more preferably a yarn having a boiling water shrinkage of 25% to 45% or a yarn having a stretch recovery rate of 25% to 50%.
[0011] The stitch length in the present invention refers to the length of 100 stitches in the transverse direction of the knitted fabric in a free and tension-free state, and the yarn A and yarn B are pulled out and gently straightened until the stitch shape formed by knitting is no longer visible.
[0012] The run resistance in the present invention refers to the phenomenon that the knitted fabric is longitudinally deknitted after cutting and washing and drying in the transverse direction (90°) and the diagonal direction (45°) of the knitted fabric in the knitting direction and the reverse knitting direction, respectively.
[0013] In the present invention, the ratio between the stitch length La of yarn A and the stitch length Lb of yarn B is crucial to the run resistance of the knitted fabric.
[0014] When the yarn B is a high-temperature polyurethane fiber (high-temperature PU) and La / Lb is less than or equal to 2.0, the space between the loops formed by the yarn A is large, and when a slight tension is applied to both sides in the width direction, the loops between the non-polyurethane fibers will be off the hook; when La / Lb is greater than or equal to 3.0, the length of the yarn B is too short, and at this time, problems such as knitting difficulty and holes will occur. Therefore, when the yarn B is a high-temperature polyurethane fiber, the present application requires that La and Lb satisfy the following relationship: 2.0 < La / Lb < 3.0, so that the loops formed by the yarn A can lock the yarn B and achieve the purpose of preventing the yarn from being scattered, and at the same time, problems such as knitting difficulty caused by the shortness of the yarn B will not occur. Preferably, 2.0 < La / Lb < 2.5; more preferably, 2.1 ≤ La / Lb ≤ 2.4.
[0015] In the present application, the high-temperature PU fiber refers to a PU fiber that melts at a temperature exceeding 190°C; and the low-temperature PU fiber refers to a PU fiber that melts at a temperature greater than or equal to 130°C and less than or equal to 190°C.
[0016] When the yarn B is a non-polyurethane fiber, La / Lb < 1.00, that is, the length of the loop A is less than that of the yarn B, and when there is a tension in the transverse direction, the loop A is stretched to a nearly straight state, and the loop B is not easy to escape from the yarn A, thereby realizing that the fabric does not scatter. When the length of the loop A is greater than or equal to that of the yarn B, the space between the yarn A and the loop B is large, and when a slight tension is applied in the transverse direction, the fabric will scatter. Preferably, La / Lb < 0.90; more preferably, La / Lb ≤ 0.70. The non-polyurethane fiber herein is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include cotton, modal, ordinary polyester, ordinary polyamide, etc. Of course, the same type of yarn as the yarn A can also be selected, such as a yarn having a boiling water shrinkage of more than 20% or a yarn having a stretch recovery rate of more than 20%.
[0017] As preferred, the total denier of the yarn A in the present application is 10-100 denier (D). More preferably, the total denier of the yarn A is 20-75 D.
[0018] In the present application, the weave is not particularly limited and can be single-sided or double-sided. Examples of the single-sided weave include single jersey and rib, and examples of the double-sided weave include cotton wool weave.
[0019] When the fabric is a single-sided weave, the yarn A and the yarn B are 1:1 full loops, or the yarn A is a loop-float and the yarn B is a full loop, the course row where the yarn A is located is adjacent to the course row where the yarn B is located, and the loop formed by the yarn A locks the yarn B adjacent thereto to achieve the purpose of not scattering. When the yarn A and the yarn B are fed in at the same time, the yarn A can lock the loop hooked with it, and the purpose of not scattering can also be achieved.
[0020] In the present application, when the yarn A is knitted with other yarns, not only the position of the single loop of the yarn A is considered, but also the position of the yarn A in the whole knitted fabric is considered. In the present application, it is preferred that at least one course of the 5 courses of loops of the knitted fabric is formed by the yarn A.
[0021] In the present application, in addition to the yarn A and the yarn B, a yarn C can be selected as needed, and the type of the yarn C is not particularly limited and can be selected as needed.
[0022] The knitted fabric of the present application can be used to make T-shirts, underwear, trousers, coats, and the like.
