Abstract: An improved ultraviolet (UV) blocking fabric that has an ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) rating of at least 49 in accordance with AATCC 183. The fabric does not require ultraviolet protecting coating(s) or finish(es) or such other treatment for achieving the desired ultraviolet protecting efficiency. Further, the fabric affords maintenance of the UPF rating even after the fabric has been subjected to several laundering cycles.
