What is corduroy fabric?

Corduroy is generally made of cotton as the main raw material, and it is also blended or interwoven with polyester, acrylic, spandex and other fibers. Corduroy is a fabric with longitudinal velvet formed on the surface, which is cut weft fleece and consists of two parts: velvet tissue and ground tissue. After processing such as cutting and brushing, the surface of the fabric presents a wick-shaped and obviously raised pile, hence the name. In the 1950s and 1960s, it belonged to high-end fabrics, and it was generally not the fabric ticket allocated at that time. Corduroy is also called corduroy, corduroy, and velvet.
The corduroy weave adopts a weft double weave in which two sets of weft yarns and one set of warp yarns are interwoven, and the ground weaves include plain weave and twill weave. Corduroy is woven from one set of warp yarns and two sets of weft yarns, one set of weft yarns (called ground weft) interweaves with warp yarns to form a ground fabric with consolidated fluff, and the other set of weft yarns (called pile weft) interweaves with warp yarns to form a regular floating pattern. Weft, cut to form fluff.
Corduroy is woven with weft double weave, and then finished with cut pile. The fabric surface is corduroy, also known as corduroy. Corduroy uses a wide range of yarns. Warp yarns are usually 18-48tex (32-12 British counts) single yarn, or 10tex×2-28tex×2 (60/2-21/2 British counts) strands; weft yarns are commonly used 14.5- 36tex (40-16 British count) single yarn. The weave weave uses two sets of weft yarns interwoven with one set of warp yarns. The ground weave includes plain weave, twill weave, and equal weft weights. Corduroy is a high weft density fabric with a warp tightness of 35%-65% and a weft tightness of 110%-200%. The arrangement ratio of ground weft and cashmere weft is 1:2, 1:3.
