  • Fabric having balanced elongation
    Patent number: 7732356
    Abstract: A fabric having balanced stress-strain characteristics in the warp and weft directions. A method of processing the fabric includes overfeeding a woven fabric web along a first direction at one or more steps of a treatment process to facilitate crimping of the woven fabric web in the first direction. The overfeeding is indicative of a predetermined differential between a feed rate and a process rate at the one or more steps. The differential is adapted to cause the crimping in the first direction to substantially match a the level of crimping in a second direction.
