Abstract

Abstract A fabric woven from a synthetic yarn for an airbag is described. The synthetic yarn consists of a high-tenacity polyester filament yarn having a filament linear density of less than 4 dtex and a yarn linear density in the range from 250 to 550 dtex. Unlike conventional polyamide fabrics, the fabric itself is uncoated and is preferably woven from unsized yarns. The fabric does not have to be calendered. As has been found, this fabric made of fine-filament high-tenacity polyester yarn, despite not being coated, meets the demands to be made on an airbag fabric, such as low air permeability, low fabric weight and small fabric thickness and high fabric strength.
