Abstract: The elastic polyester composite filaments are prepared by conventional polyester/modified polyester bi-component spinning. Then selected relatively sparse weave specifications and woven elastic polyester composite filaments into a fabric. After the alkali reduction and setting process, the fabric has a smooth and drapey hand feeling, excellent anti-wrinkle property, as well as good elasticity.

Key words: composite spinning; elastic fiber; fabric design; alkali reduction; elastic effect
