Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fabric technology, specifically to an environmentally friendly fabric with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions and its preparation process. Background Technology

[0002] As living standards improve, people's demands for clothing comfort are constantly increasing. Especially during exercise or in high-temperature environments, the human body sweats easily, thus requiring clothing with higher performance in moisture absorption and temperature regulation. However, traditional synthetic fiber fabric production not only consumes large amounts of petroleum raw materials but also generates significant amounts of waste gas, wastewater, and waste during the production process, causing environmental pollution. Therefore, developing a fabric that is both environmentally friendly and possesses temperature regulation and quick-drying functions has become an urgent need in the industry. Currently, recycled polyester fabric technology is widely used. This fabric is made from recycled polyester plastic products through processing, eliminating the need for new petroleum raw materials, thus achieving environmental friendliness. Recycled polyester fabric not only reduces the environmental pollution caused by traditional synthetic fiber fabric production but also has good durability and practicality. Furthermore, recycled polyester yarn exhibits excellent physical properties. Its yarn strength and tensile breaking elongation are both outstanding, making garments made from it highly durable. At the same time, this yarn also possesses excellent wrinkle resistance and colorfastness, so garments can maintain their original shape and color even after multiple washes. It is of positive significance to find a new type of yarn that is both environmentally friendly and practical, such as recycled polyester yarn, and combine it with the functions of temperature regulation and quick drying to meet the needs of consumers in actual sports application scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects or problems in the background art and provide an environmentally friendly fabric with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions and its preparation process. The fabric is soft and skin-friendly, has a certain physical elasticity in the weft direction, and has breathable and moisture-wicking properties, which meet the needs of use in sports scenarios.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the various embodiments of the present invention employ the following technical solutions, but are not limited to the following solutions:

[0005] The first technical solution relates to a preparation process for an environmentally friendly fabric with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions, including the following steps: selecting polyester DTY yarn as warp yarn, selecting recycled polyester yarn with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions as weft yarn and imparting elasticity, and preparing a fabric with a three-dimensional structure and small jacquard effect through warping, weaving, dyeing, drying and moisture-wicking finishing processes. The finished fabric has a weight of 135g-185g / m² and a width of 125cm-150cm.

[0006] The second technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein the warp yarn is polyester DTY yarn or elastic yarn with DTY yarn covered with spandex; the weft yarn is composed of a first weft yarn and a second weft yarn, wherein the first weft yarn is ordinary polyester yarn or yarn with polyester recycled temperature control yarn covered with spandex, and the second weft yarn is polyester recycled temperature control yarn.

[0007] The third technical solution is based on the second technical solution, wherein the warping process adopts a batch-by-batch full-warping method.

[0008] The fourth technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein in the weaving process, the weaving machine is a water-jet multi-arm loom with two nozzles, so as to realize the combination of various yarn materials in the weft direction.

[0009] The fifth technical solution is based on the fourth technical solution, wherein, in the weaving process, the loom controls the up and down movement of the heald frame, the warp yarns form orderly openings, and the weft yarns interweave with the warp yarns through the openings to form a fabric surface with a small jacquard effect.

[0010] The sixth technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein in the dyeing process, an overflow dyeing machine and disperse dyes are used to dye the fabric.

[0011] The seventh technical solution is based on the first technical solution. In the drying process, a setting machine is used to dry the fabric. The setting machine is set to a temperature of 160°C, a running speed of 50 m / min, and an overfeed rate of 8%. The fabric is heat-set in the drying oven for a duration of 1.5 min.

[0012] The eighth technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein the moisture-wicking finishing process uses an environmentally friendly moisture-wicking agent and is finished and shaped using a setting machine.

[0013] The ninth technical solution is based on the eighth technical solution, wherein, after completing the moisture-wicking finishing process, phase change microcapsules can be further introduced for post-treatment impregnation finishing and shaping.

[0014] The tenth technical solution is based on any one of the first to ninth technical solutions, wherein a fabric is prepared using the above-mentioned preparation process of an environmentally friendly fabric with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions.

[0015] As can be seen from the above description of the various embodiments of the present invention, compared with the prior art, the various embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0016] In the first technical solution and related embodiments, the fabric, through the interlacing of warp and weft yarns combined with warping and weaving processes, creates a three-dimensional structure with a small jacquard effect. This design not only increases the fabric's warmth retention by trapping more still air, but the small jacquard design also enhances the fabric's aesthetics and texture. When human skin comes into contact with this fabric, the jacquard effect helps increase the surface area for air circulation, thereby promoting heat exchange between the skin and the air, and simultaneously forming a microclimate layer between the skin to further enhance the warmth retention. For the material selection, polyester DTY yarn is chosen as the warp yarn. Due to its excellent physical properties, such as high elasticity and good abrasion resistance, as well as its good softness, polyester DTY yarn ensures that the fabric is durable yet soft and comfortable to the touch. The weft yarn is made of recycled polyester yarn with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions. This yarn not only reduces reliance on native resources and minimizes environmental pollution during production, aligning with sustainable development principles, but also contains hydrophilic active particles that effectively absorb moisture evaporated from the body through electrostatic interactions and accelerate evaporation by utilizing its increased surface area (up to 1000 square meters larger than ordinary yarn). Furthermore, the yarn absorbs infrared energy naturally emitted by the human body to regulate temperature, providing a consistently comfortable experience for the wearer. The recycled polyester yarn is endowed with a certain degree of physical elasticity, ensuring excellent stretch and comfort during exercise, meeting the needs of sports activities. Simultaneously, both polyester DTY yarn and recycled polyester yarn possess good breathability and moisture-wicking properties. After a specialized moisture-wicking finishing process, the fabric can more effectively absorb and wick away sweat, keeping it dry. This breathable and moisture-wicking performance allows wearers to feel cool, dry, and comfortable during exercise or in high-temperature environments.

[0017] In the second technical solution and related embodiments, the warp yarns are selected from polyester DTY yarn or elastic yarns made of DTY yarn covered with spandex, providing the fabric with good elasticity and stretch. This design allows the fabric to adapt to the wearer's body movements, providing better wearing comfort. The weft yarns use recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn, which, whether combined with ordinary polyester yarn or with polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn covered with spandex, provides the fabric with excellent temperature regulation capabilities, absorbing or releasing heat when the external temperature changes, helping the wearer maintain a comfortable body temperature. Polyester itself has good quick-drying properties, and the use of recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn further enhances the fabric's quick-drying ability. This allows the fabric to quickly wick away sweat when sweating, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. Using recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn for the weft yarns not only achieves resource reuse but also reduces environmental pollution. This environmentally friendly fabric manufacturing process meets the requirements of sustainable development and has positive significance for environmental protection.

[0018] In the third technical solution and related embodiments, the batch-based warping method allows the total number of warp yarns to be divided into several batches according to the maximum capacity of the warp bobbin, thus effectively utilizing the equipment and improving production efficiency. Each batch of warp yarns can be warped independently, thereby shortening the overall production cycle. Batch-based warping ensures that each batch of warp yarns receives uniform tension during the warping process, avoiding yarn quality problems caused by uneven tension. Through batch-based warping, each batch of warp yarns can be precisely controlled during warping, ensuring that the yarns are neatly and orderly arranged on the warp beam. This helps maintain the uniformity and stability of the fabric in subsequent weaving processes.

[0019] In the fourth technical solution and related embodiments, the loom employs a water-jet multi-arm loom with two nozzles to combine multiple yarns in the weft direction, which can produce fabrics with multiple functions such as temperature regulation and quick drying. The design of the two nozzles allows for the flexible introduction of different yarns in the weft direction, thereby achieving various complex textures and patterns.

[0020] In the fifth technical solution and related embodiments, the operation of the loom and the control of the heald frames are used to interweave the weft and warp yarns, forming a fabric with a small jacquard effect. During this process, the heald frames control the up-and-down movement of the warp yarns to create warp openings. The formation of these openings relies on precise computer program control, enabling the heald frames to move up and down according to a preset pattern and rhythm, ensuring that the warp yarns form openings in the correct positions, providing a passage for the weft yarns. Guided by the loom, the weft yarns pass through the warp openings sequentially, tightly interweaving with the warp yarns. This interweaving method not only enhances the structural stability of the fabric but also endows it with unique properties.

[0021] In the sixth technical solution and related embodiments, the overflow dyeing machine ensures the natural relaxation and stretching of the fabric during the dyeing process, avoiding damage to the fabric structure caused by excessive stretching or compression. Through the overflow dyeing machine, the fabric can be fully relaxed and stretched within the dyeing vat, allowing dye molecules to better penetrate the fibers, thus achieving a uniform and vibrant dyeing effect. During the dyeing process, the fabric naturally relaxes and shrinks within the dyeing vat, with the weft yarns fully contracting. This treatment effectively improves the fabric's mechanical elasticity, making it more elastic and comfortable to wear and use.

[0022] In the seventh technical solution and related embodiments, a setting machine is used in the drying process. This equipment dries the fabric with specific process parameters, so that the fabric is appropriately stretched during the drying process, which helps to optimize the internal structure of the fabric, improve the mechanical properties and stability of the fabric, and ensure that the fabric maintains its excellent temperature regulation and quick-drying function during the drying process.

[0023] In the eighth technical solution and related embodiments, the use of environmentally friendly moisture-wicking agents ensures that the fabric, while improving its moisture-wicking performance, also meets environmental standards, reducing potential harm to the environment and human body. This agent can quickly absorb sweat produced on the skin's surface and rapidly wick it away through the fabric's fiber structure, thus keeping the fabric dry and ensuring the wearer's comfort. The high-temperature environment of the setting machine accelerates the bonding of the agent with the fibers, allowing the agent to be more evenly distributed within the fabric fibers, thereby ensuring the fabric's performance durability.

[0024] In the ninth technical solution and related embodiments, the fabric undergoes a specialized moisture-wicking finish, enhancing its ability to absorb and expel sweat. Furthermore, this fabric exhibits excellent compatibility with various additives or finishing agents, allowing for the addition of additional performance advantages based on specific needs. In particular, the addition of phase change microcapsules (PCMs) imparts a lasting temperature control effect to the fabric and improves its thermodynamic properties. Phase change microcapsules, derived from the cold storage technology of phase change material microcapsules, are finishing agents with intelligent temperature regulation functions. When the ambient temperature changes, the phase change material undergoes a solid-liquid transformation. Specifically, when the ambient temperature rises, the phase change material absorbs heat, changing from a solid to a liquid state, and in this process, absorbs heat, creating a cooling sensation in the fabric; conversely, when the ambient temperature decreases, the phase change material gradually solidifies, releasing the stored heat, thereby achieving a heat-insulating effect. During the post-processing padding and finishing, the phase change microcapsules are evenly distributed on the fabric and firmly bonded to the fabric fibers through appropriate hot pressing or heat treatment processes. In this way, phase change microcapsules can effectively regulate the temperature of the fabric through the phase change process, thus enhancing the fabric's temperature regulation function.

[0025] In the tenth technical solution and related embodiments, the fabric produced by the above-mentioned preparation process achieves the effects of soft and skin-friendly fabric texture, certain physical elasticity in the weft direction, and breathable moisture-wicking properties, making the fabric more suitable for the use needs in sports scenarios and providing wearers with a more comfortable and healthy wearing experience.

[0038] A process for preparing an environmentally friendly fabric with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions includes the following steps: selecting polyester DTY yarn as warp yarn, selecting recycled polyester yarn with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions as weft yarn and imparting elasticity, and then performing warping, weaving, dyeing, drying and moisture-wicking finishing processes to prepare a fabric with a three-dimensional structure and a small jacquard effect. The finished fabric has a weight of 135g-185g / m² and a width of 125cm-150cm.

[0039] Specifically, the warp yarn is polyester DTY yarn or elastic yarn made of DTY yarn covered with spandex; the weft yarn consists of a first weft yarn and a second weft yarn, wherein the first weft yarn is ordinary polyester yarn or polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn covered with spandex, and the second weft yarn is polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn. In this embodiment, the polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn is used... The fabric is made with recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn. The warp yarns are selected from polyester DTY yarn or DTY yarn coated with spandex, providing excellent elasticity and stretch. This design allows the fabric to adapt to the wearer's movements, offering greater comfort. The weft yarns are made from recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn, which, whether combined with regular polyester yarn or with polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn coated with spandex, provides excellent temperature regulation capabilities. It absorbs or releases heat when the external temperature changes, helping the wearer maintain a comfortable body temperature. Polyester itself has good quick-drying properties, and the use of recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn further enhances the fabric's quick-drying ability. This allows the fabric to quickly wick away sweat, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. Using recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn in the weft yarns not only achieves resource reuse but also reduces environmental pollution. This environmentally friendly fabric manufacturing process meets the requirements of sustainable development and has positive significance for environmental protection.

[0040] The warping process employs a batch-based full-warping method. This method allows the total number of warp yarns to be divided into several batches based on the maximum capacity of the warp bobbin, effectively utilizing the equipment and improving production efficiency. Each batch of warp yarns can be warped independently, thus shortening the overall production cycle. Batch-based full-warping ensures that each batch of warp yarns achieves uniform tension during warping, avoiding yarn quality problems caused by uneven tension. Through batch-based full-warping, each batch of warp yarns can be precisely controlled during warping, ensuring a neat and orderly arrangement of the yarns on the warp beam. This helps maintain the uniformity and stability of the fabric during subsequent weaving processes.

[0041] In the weaving process, a water-jet multi-arm loom with two nozzles is used to allow for the combination of various yarns in the weft direction. This two-nozzle design enables the production of fabrics with multiple functions, such as temperature regulation and quick-drying properties. The two-nozzle design allows for the flexible introduction of different yarns in the weft direction, thus achieving a variety of complex textures and patterns.

[0042] In the weaving process, the loom controls the up-and-down movement of the heald frames to create warp openings, which then interweave with the weft yarns to form a fabric with a small jacquard effect. Utilizing the operation of the loom and the control of the heald frames, the weft yarns are interwoven with the warp yarns, creating a small jacquard effect. In this process, the heald frames create warp openings by controlling the up-and-down movement of the warp yarns. The formation of these openings relies on precise computer program control, ensuring that the heald frames move up and down according to a preset pattern and rhythm, ensuring that the warp yarns form openings in the correct positions, providing a passage for the weft yarns to pass through. Guided by the loom, the weft yarns pass through the warp openings sequentially, tightly interweaving with the warp yarns. This interweaving method not only enhances the structural stability of the fabric but also endows the fabric with unique properties.

[0043] In the dyeing process, an overflow dyeing machine and disperse dyes are used to dye the fabric. The overflow dyeing machine ensures the fabric's natural relaxation and stretching during the dyeing process, avoiding structural damage caused by excessive stretching or compression. Through the overflow dyeing machine, the fabric can fully relax and stretch within the dye vat, allowing dye molecules to better penetrate the fibers, resulting in a uniform and vibrant dyeing effect. During the dyeing process, the fabric naturally relaxes and shrinks within the vat, with the weft yarns fully contracting. This treatment effectively improves the fabric's mechanical elasticity, making it more elastic and comfortable to wear and use.

[0044] In the drying process, a setting machine is used to dry the fabric. The setting machine is set at a temperature of 160℃, a running speed of 50m / min, and an overfeed rate of 8%. The fabric undergoes heat setting in the drying oven for 1.5 minutes. In this embodiment, the setting machine is a Motofuji setting machine. The Motofuji setting machine is used in the drying process. This equipment dries the fabric with specific process parameters, allowing the fabric to undergo appropriate stretching during the drying process. This helps optimize the internal structure of the fabric, improves its mechanical properties and stability, and ensures that the fabric maintains its excellent temperature regulation and quick-drying functions during the drying process.

[0045] The moisture-wicking finishing process uses an environmentally friendly moisture-wicking agent, followed by drying and setting using a setting machine. In this embodiment, the moisture-wicking agent used is CHS from Tona, Netherlands, and the drying and setting are performed using a Monfuji setting machine. The Monfuji setting machine is set to a temperature of 160℃, a speed of 50m / min, and an overfeed rate of 8%. The fabric undergoes heat setting in the oven for 1.5 minutes. The use of the environmentally friendly moisture-wicking agent ensures that the fabric meets environmental standards while improving its moisture-wicking performance, reducing potential harm to the environment and human health. This agent can quickly absorb sweat produced on the skin surface and rapidly expel it through the fabric's fiber structure, thus keeping the fabric dry and providing comfort to the wearer. The high-temperature environment of the setting machine accelerates the bonding between the agent and the fibers, allowing the agent to be more evenly distributed throughout the fabric fibers, thereby ensuring the fabric's performance durability.

[0046] After completing the moisture-wicking finishing process, phase change microcapsules (PCMs) can be further introduced for post-treatment finishing and shaping. This fabric, after specialized moisture-wicking finishing, enhances its ability to absorb and wick away sweat. Furthermore, this fabric exhibits excellent compatibility with various additives or finishing agents, allowing for the addition of more performance advantages based on specific needs. In particular, the addition of PCMs imparts a lasting temperature control effect to the fabric and improves its thermodynamic properties. PCMs, derived from the cooling technology of phase change material microcapsules, are finishing agents with intelligent temperature regulation functions. When the ambient temperature changes, the phase change material undergoes a solid-liquid transformation. Specifically, when the ambient temperature rises, the phase change material absorbs heat, changing from a solid to a liquid state, and in this process, absorbs heat, creating a cooling sensation in the fabric; conversely, when the ambient temperature decreases, the phase change material gradually solidifies, releasing the stored heat, thereby achieving a heat-insulating effect. During the post-treatment padding and finishing process, the PCMs are evenly distributed on the fabric and firmly bonded to the fabric fibers through appropriate hot pressing or heat treatment processes. In this way, phase change microcapsules can effectively regulate the temperature of the fabric through the phase change process, thus enhancing the fabric's temperature regulation function.

[0047] In this embodiment, the fabric utilizes the interlacing of warp and weft yarns, combined with warping and weaving processes, to create a three-dimensional structure with a small jacquard effect. This design not only increases the fabric's warmth retention by trapping more still air, but the jacquard pattern also enhances its aesthetics and texture. When human skin comes into contact with this fabric, the jacquard effect helps increase the surface area for air circulation, thereby promoting heat exchange between the skin and the air, and simultaneously forming a microclimate layer between the skin to further enhance the warmth retention. For the warp yarn, polyester DTY yarn was selected. Due to its excellent physical properties, such as high elasticity and good abrasion resistance, as well as its good softness, polyester DTY yarn ensures that the fabric is durable yet soft and comfortable to the touch. The weft yarn is made of recycled polyester yarn with temperature regulation and quick-drying functions. This yarn not only reduces reliance on native resources and minimizes environmental pollution during production, aligning with sustainable development principles, but also contains hydrophilic active particles that effectively absorb moisture evaporated from the body through electrostatic interactions and accelerate evaporation by utilizing its increased surface area (up to 1000 square meters larger than ordinary yarn). Furthermore, the yarn absorbs infrared energy naturally emitted by the human body to regulate temperature, providing a consistently comfortable experience for the wearer. The recycled polyester yarn is endowed with a certain degree of physical elasticity, ensuring excellent stretch and comfort during exercise, meeting the needs of sports activities. Simultaneously, both polyester DTY yarn and recycled polyester yarn possess good breathability and moisture-wicking properties. After a specialized moisture-wicking finishing process, the fabric can more effectively absorb and wick away sweat, keeping it dry. This breathable and moisture-wicking performance allows wearers to feel cool, dry, and comfortable during exercise or in high-temperature environments.

[0048] A fabric is produced using the aforementioned manufacturing process. Fabrics produced using this process achieve a soft, skin-friendly texture, a certain degree of physical elasticity in the weft direction, and breathable, moisture-wicking properties, making them more suitable for use in sports settings and providing wearers with a more comfortable and healthy wearing experience.

[0051] The warping process is carried out in batches. Specifically, at a speed of 350 m / min, the warp yarns are evenly arranged together by the warping machine to form 1223 warp beams. Subsequently, these 1223 warp beams are further merged, with 7 warp beams forming a weaving beam.

[0052] In the weaving process, a loom equipped with two nozzles was selected, each capable of producing two different weft yarns. The first weft yarn, a 100D / 96F semi-dull mechanical elastic yarn, was hung on the first creel; while the second weft yarn, a 75D / 72F yarn, was hung on the second creel. Polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn. During the weaving process, the loom runs at a speed of 450 rpm. The up and down movement of the upper heddle frame on the loom is controlled by a preset small jacquard computer heddle lifting program, so that the warp yarns can form orderly openings, and the weft yarns interweave with the warp yarns through these openings, ultimately forming a fabric with a unique small jacquard effect.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the smallest structural unit of the fabric consists of 8 weft yarns and 6 warp yarns. Weft yarns 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 are the second weft yarns, and weft yarns 4 and 8 are the first weft yarns. Specifically, as... Figure 2 As shown, the warp threads are passed through six different heddles (which can be understood as six different positions or holes) in a front-to-back sequence using the heddle threading method. This process is repeated after every six warp threads are threaded, like a cycle. Then, the heddle raising method is used, which is like controlling the up-and-down movement of these heddles. Again starting from front to back, every eight weft threads are woven in, and these heddles rise and fall in a specific order, thus creating a specific texture or pattern on the fabric.

[0054] In the dyeing process, an overflow dyeing machine and disperse dyes are used to dye the fabric.

[0055] In the drying process, the fabric is dried using a Monfuji setting machine. The Monfuji setting machine is set to a temperature of 160℃, a running speed of 50m / min, and an overfeed rate of 8%. The fabric is heat-set in the oven for 1.5 minutes.

[0056] The moisture-wicking finishing process uses CHS moisture-wicking agent from Tona in the Netherlands, followed by drying and setting using a Monfus setting machine. The Monfus setting machine is set to a temperature of 160℃, a speed of 50m / min, and an overfeed rate of 8%. The fabric undergoes heat setting in the oven for 1.5 minutes.

[0057] The finished fabric has a warp density of 153 threads / inch, a weft density of 140 threads / inch, a finished weight of 135g-140g / m², and a width of 145cm-150cm.

[0058] Example 2

[0059] The warp yarn is made of 75D / 72F DTY yarn covered with 40D spandex bare yarn, and the covering yarn process is open-face covering; the first weft yarn is... Recycled polyester 75D / 72F DTY yarn overlays 40D spandex bare yarn, with the second weft yarn being 75D / 72F. Recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn.

[0060] The warping process is carried out in batches. Specifically, at a speed of 350 m / min, the warp yarns are evenly arranged together by the warping machine to form 1100 warp beams. Subsequently, these 1100 warp beams are further merged, with 7 warp beams forming a weaving beam.

[0061] In the weaving process, the loom used is equipped with two nozzles, which can respectively produce two different weft yarns. The first weft yarn is hung on the first yarn creel. 75D / 72F recycled polyester DTY yarn is wrapped around 40D spandex bare yarn; while on the second yarn rack, the second weft yarn of 75D / 72F is hung. Polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn. During the weaving process, the loom runs at a speed of 450 rpm. The up and down movement of the upper heddle frame on the loom is controlled by a preset small jacquard computer heddle lifting program, so that the warp yarns can form orderly openings, and the weft yarns interweave with the warp yarns through these openings, ultimately forming a fabric with a unique small jacquard effect.

[0062] like Figure 3 As shown, the smallest structural unit of the fabric consists of 10 weft threads and 8 warp threads, with the weft direction providing temperature regulation and quick-drying functions. Recycled polyester yarn. Specifically, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the warp threads are passed through eight different heddles in a front-to-back sequence using the heddle threading method. This process is repeated after every eight warp threads have been threaded, like a cycle. Then, the heddle raising method is used, which is like a way to control the up and down movement of these heddles. Again, starting from front to back, every ten weft threads are woven in, and these heddles will rise and fall in a specific order, thus creating a specific texture or pattern on the fabric.

[0063] The subsequent dyeing, drying, and moisture-wicking finishing processes are the same as in Example 1, and will not be described again.

[0064] The finished fabric has a warp density of 136 threads / inch, a weft density of 145 threads / inch, a finished weight of 160g-170g / m², and a width of 138cm-142cm.

[0065] Example 3

[0066] The warp yarn is 75D / 72F polyester DTY yarn; the first weft yarn is 75D / 48F semi-dull mechanical elastic yarn, and the second weft yarn is 150D / 144F. Recycled polyester temperature-controlled yarn.

[0067] The warping process is carried out in batches. Specifically, at a speed of 350 m / min, the warp yarns are evenly arranged together by the warping machine to form 1052 warp beams. Subsequently, these 1052 warp beams are further merged, with 11 warp beams forming a single warp beam.

[0068] In the weaving process, a loom equipped with two nozzles was selected, each capable of producing two different weft yarns. The first weft yarn, 75D / 48F semi-dull mechanical elastic yarn, was hung on the first yarn creel; while the second weft yarn, 150D / 144F, was hung on the second yarn creel. Polyester recycled temperature-controlled yarn. During the weaving process, the loom runs at a speed of 450 rpm. The up and down movement of the upper heddle frame on the loom is controlled by a preset small jacquard computer heddle lifting program, so that the warp yarns can form orderly openings, and the weft yarns interweave with the warp yarns through these openings, ultimately forming a fabric with a unique small jacquard effect.

[0069] like Figure 5 As shown, the smallest structural unit of the fabric consists of 12 weft yarns and 8 warp yarns. Weft yarns 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, and 12 are the second weft yarns, and weft yarns 1, 2, 7, and 8 are the first weft yarns. Specifically, as... Figure 6 As shown, the warp threads are passed through eight different heddles in a front-to-back sequence using the heddle threading method. This process is repeated after every eight warp threads have been threaded, like a cycle. Then, the heddle raising method is used, which is like a way to control the up and down movement of these heddles. Again, starting from front to back, every 12 weft threads are woven in, and these heddles will rise and fall once in a specific order, thus creating a specific texture or pattern on the fabric.

[0070] The subsequent dyeing, drying, and moisture-wicking finishing processes are the same as in Example 1, and will not be described again.

[0071] The finished fabric has a warp density of 214 threads / inch, a weft density of 178 threads / inch, a finished weight of 175g-182g / m², and a width of 132cm-138cm.

[0072] Example 4

[0073] Based on the fabric prepared in Example 1, phase change microcapsules can be further introduced for post-treatment padding and finishing. The finished fabric in this example has a weight of approximately 140 g / m².

[0074] The formulation, preparation, and post-treatment process of the microcapsule finishing working solution are as follows:

[0075] formula:

[0076] RUCO-THERM PCM 28: 50 G / L

[0077] Isocyanate crosslinking agent: 10g / L

[0078] Preparation process:

[0079] Before using RUCO-THERM PCM 28, it must be thoroughly stirred. A propeller-type agitator should be used. Pre-dissolve RUCO-THERM PCM 28 in cold or warm water, keeping the stirring speed below 250 rpm to avoid microcapsule demulsification due to excessive stirring speed. During stirring, pay special attention to the shear force of the agitator blades to prevent damage to the capsule shell layer due to excessive shear force. Let RUCO-THERM PCM 28 stir for 5 minutes until completely dissolved, then add the cross-linking agent and continue mixing for another 5 minutes until the solution is fully homogeneous. Add the mixed working solution to the mixing tank, maintaining continuous low-speed stirring to ensure the working solution remains homogeneous. The prepared solution should be used immediately to avoid precipitation or stratification due to prolonged standing.

[0080] Post-finishing process:

[0081] Ensure the pick-up pressure is greater than 60%, and set the padder pressure to 4 kg / cm². 2 The pH value of the working solution needs to be controlled between 6.5 and 7.5. Use a Fuji needle plate setting machine for drying and setting, setting the temperature between 130-150℃. The fabric is then baked at high temperature for 1.5 minutes to ensure complete drying.

[0082] The fabrics prepared in the above embodiments were subjected to performance tests, and the test results are shown in Table 1:

[0084] As shown in Table 1, all four schemes meet the Class II requirements of the latest national standard GB / T 21655.1—2023 "Evaluation of the moisture absorption and quick-drying properties of textiles - Part 1: Single combination test method", and perform well in terms of thermal insulation performance.
