Cloqué

Cloqué (from the French cloqué = blister, a blister -forming) is one of the crepe fabrics and is also known as bubble crepe, because the typical crepe fabric warped appearance is achieved by bubbling the surface.

The fabric is used because of its interesting structure for fashionable evening dresses and blazers. Cloquégewebe and materials should not iron it, if it would be necessary, then only weak and from the left ( located inside page ).

Production

In manufacturing, there are three methods:

• Real cloqué with a fabric of two warp and weft systems, the latter with smooth and creped yarns.
• Half - cloqué with only one chain, but two weft yarns (smooth and creped )
• Shrink - cloqué using shrinkable and non-shrinkable fibers. The cloqué effect is achieved in the equipment.

When real Cloquégewebe the warp threads to the outer fabric is loose, the tense of the goods ( Georgette ) taut. The sub-chain binds to certain repeats in the top shot, between the attachment sites of the upper fabric is loose it. In the finish run through the wet treatment, the crepe yarns or high shrink yarns of the lower fabric together, become shorter and arching the upper fabric, bubble -like high. The resulting relief is permanent.
