WADDING

摘要

The present invention relates to wadding in which short fibers (A) having a single fiber fineness (a) of 0.001-1.0 dtex make up 5-90 mass% of the total mass of the wadding. Measured in accordance with JIS L 1096 Warmth Retention Method A (Constant-Temperature Method): 2010, a 89% or higher warmth retention ratio is obtained in test items made by stuffing 100g of the wadding substantially evenly into a pouch-shaped cover produced by layering two pieces of 45cm-length 100% cotton fabric squares and thereafter sewing shut the opening of the pouch-shaped cover. By means of the present invention, it is possible to provide wadding which has excellent softness and bulkiness and which is ideal for use in down jackets, duvets or other bedding.
