This invention describes a special two-layer fabric. It combines a base layer, which can be a plastic film or a nonwoven material, with a very lightweight jersey knit fabric. The unique aspect is that the knitted fabric has a precisely controlled stitch density, where the stitches running lengthwise are significantly denser than those running crosswise, specifically within a ratio of 1.5 to 3.0, and a basis weight of 39 g/m2 or less.
Why it matters: Advances in knitting machine precision or lightweight adhesive technologies since 2022 could make achieving this specific, delicate laminate structure more feasible or cost-effective.
