Abstract [eng] The flammability and air permeability of woven fabric are very important properties for upholstery furniture manufacturers. In this study the dependencies of air permeability and flammability on yarn air texturing parameters, such as structure of the yarn and air pressure in the texturing jet were investigated. It was found, that air permeability depends more on yarn structure, than on air pressure in the texturing jet. Difference of air permeability of the fabrics in dependence of different structure yarns is around 17 %, when in dependence of air pressure is just 3 %. The same tendency was stated regarding fabric self extinction time. Self extinction time variation because of structure is around 19 %, and because of pressure in some cases less than 3 %. Also it was noted, that air permeability and self extinction time depends on hairiness of the yarn woven into the fabric.
