Abstract
Fibers of square cross sections are presented in the invention. The square fiber leads to higher packing density and results in higher wind resistance in fabrics as compared to the conventional round fibers and other polygonal fibers. Therefore, the square fiber is more suitable for manufacture of the windproof clothing. In addition, the square fibers exhibit higher luster than the round fibers and other polygonal fibers due to the flat and shiny fiber surface.
Claims16
A fabric of high wind resistance, made of melt-spinning fibers having square cross-section, wherein each side of the square cross-section has approximately equal length.
