A high-density hollow weave fabric for an air bag is provided, wherein an
inflatable double-layer hollow weave portion is encircled on the outer
periphery thereof with a seam zone including a reversible figured weave
pattern and a basket weave pattern. In the seam zone, the reversible
figured weave pattern is closest to the boundary of the inflatable
double-layer hollow weave portion, and a first weave portion including
the basket weave pattern, a narrow width hollow weave portion and a
second basket weave patterns continue in this order. The inventive fabric
is woven without the generation of fluffs and wrinkles, and the
wrinkle-free coating is provided in the boundary between the double-layer
hollow weave portion and the seam zone encircling the former. By using
this high-density hollow weave fabric, it is possible to make the
curtain-shaped air bag deployable at a high speed while preventing gas
from leaking.
