Fabric For Three-Dimensional Design Preparation

Abstract

A fabric for three-dimensional design preparation which can afford sharp and extremely fine line-like concaves of 1 mm or less in width or smooth curvilinear concaves is provided by a three-dimensional design preparing process using ink jet printing for example. The fabric is a pile fabric comprising a pile portion and a ground weave portion, wherein a single fiber size of pile yarn which constitutes the pile portion is 0.05 to 3.5 dtex, the pile is distributed uniformly at a proportion of 2% to 20% per unit area on the pile surface side, and in a vertical section of the pile fabric, the ratio of the area of the pile yarn relative to the sectional area of a 50% portion of an average entire pile height from the pile surface side is 40% to 60%.
