Patent attributes
A protective woven fabric of the present invention includes super fiber yarns. The warp of the woven fabric is a covered yarn (1, 4, 5) composed of two or more twisted inorganic filament yarns as core yarns (2a, 2b) and one or more super fiber yarns (3, 3a, 3b, 3c) as covering yarns that are wound and twisted around the core yarns (2a, 2b), and a weft thereof is a super fiber yarn. Preferably, the covered yarn is a W covered yarn in which a twist coefficient K of the covering yarns with respect to the core yarns is 2000 to 30000. Due to this, it is possible to provide a protective woven fabric that, even when the warp and the weft is squeezed or rubbed by the reed, heddles, etc., of a loom, has few defects such as fluff or fiber aggregates and which has a satisfactory weaving pattern while retaining a high protective function. A force required to cut this woven fabric is 50 N or more, preferably 60 N or more, as measured through a cutting test in accordance with JIS-T8052, even when the fabric is a monolayer woven fabric.
