AIRBAG FABRIC AND AIRBAG

An object of the invention is to provide an airbag fabric excellent in slippage amount and strength in sewing portion against a burden onto a sewing portion of the airbag; and an airbag made of this airbag fabric. The invention provides an airbag fabric made of a synthetic fiber, the fabric having a constant (load of 98 N/30 mm) elongation of 1 to 5% and having a residual strain rate of 0.1 to 1.5%, the residual strain rate being obtained when the fabric is allowed to stand still for 10 minutes from the removal of the 98 N/30 mm load after the retention of the fabric for 10 minutes while the 98 N/30 mm load is applied to the fabric. The strength in sewing portion is preferably 1200 N or more in each of the warp and the weft.
