DESCRIZIONE
This invention relates to cut resistant fabrics and articles including gloves, and processes for making cut resistant articles, the fabrics and articles comprising a yarn comprising an intimate blend of staple fibers, the blend comprising 20 to 50 parts by weight of a lubricating fiber; 20 to 40 parts by weight of a first aramid fiber having a linear density of from 3.3 to 6 denier per filament (3.7 to 6.7 dtex per filament); and 20 to 40 parts by weight of a second aramid fiber having a linear density of from 0.50 to 4.5 denier per filament (0.56 to 5.0 dtex per filament); based on the total weight of the lubricating and first and second aramid fibers. The difference in filament linear density of the first aramid fiber to the second aramid fiber is 1 denier per filament (1.1 dtex per filament) or greater.
