Abstract
The process of treatment according to this invention is applied to a textile piece--weave, knit or finished article--constituted wholly or partly by yarns of continuous filaments with adherent microfilaments, obtained by star--or lamellar spinning, for example comprising six to eight unitary microfilaments of 0.2 to 0.4 dtex. It consists in subjecting said piece, resting on a support screen, to the action of jets of water at a pressure of at least 4.multidot.10.sup.6 Pa, whereby the structure of the piece is modified and the unitary microfilaments are separated.
