What are the common chemical fiber fabrics?

Lead: When it comes to chemical fiber, many people will think of words such as "unhealthy, airtight and low-end fabrics". But in fact, our life can not be separated from chemical fiber, whether it is clothing or household items, chemical fiber will be used. Chemical fiber fabric is also a new type of clothing developed in modern times, and there are many kinds. So, what are the common chemical fiber fabrics? The following is a detailed introduction of Bian Xiao chemical fiber fabrics.

What are the chemical fiber fabrics?

Chemical fiber fabrics mainly include polyamide 6 fiber (called nylon or nylon 6 in China), polyacrylonitrile fiber (called acrylic fiber in China), polyester fiber (called polyester fiber in China), polypropylene fiber (called polypropylene fiber in China), polyvinyl formal fiber (called vinylon in China) and special fiber.

Fibers made of natural or synthetic polymers. Common textiles, such as viscose cloth, polyester khaki, nylon stockings, acrylic wool and polypropylene carpet, are all made of chemical fiber. According to the different sources of raw materials, chemical fibers can be divided into: ① man-made fibers, made of natural high molecular substances (such as cellulose) and viscose fibers; (2) synthetic fibers, which take synthetic polymers as raw materials, such as polyester; (3) Inorganic fiber, taking inorganic materials as raw materials, such as glass fiber.

Synthetic fibers are made of synthetic polymer compounds. Commonly used synthetic fibers are polyester, nylon, acrylic fiber, polyvinyl chloride, vinylon, spandex and so on.

dacron

The scientific name of polyester is polyethylene terephthalate, short for polyester fiber. Polyester is a trade name in China, and it is called polyester, polyester and Tetron abroad. Polyester fiber ranks first in chemical fiber production because of its easily available raw materials, excellent performance, wide application and rapid development. The biggest feature of polyester is that its elasticity is stronger than any fiber; Good strength and wear resistance, the fabric woven from it is not only 3 ~ 4 times higher than other fibers, but also stiff and not easy to deform, and has the reputation of "no ironing"; The heat resistance of polyester is also strong; Good chemical stability, no reaction with weak acids, weak bases and oxidants at room temperature.

The disadvantage is that the hygroscopicity is extremely poor, and the fabric woven with it is stuffy when worn on the body. In addition, due to the smooth surface of the fibers and the poor cohesion between fibers, it is easy to pilling where there is frequent friction.

nylon

Nylon is the commodity name of our country, and the scientific name is polyamide fiber; There are different varieties such as nylon -66, nylon-10 10 and nylon -6. The trade names of nylon abroad are also called "Nylon", "Nylon", "Kaplan" and "Ahmilon". Nylon is the earliest synthetic fiber variety in the world. Because of its excellent performance and rich raw material resources, it has always been the highest synthetic fiber variety. It was not until after 1970 that polyester fiber retreated to the second place of synthetic fiber because of its rapid development. The biggest feature of nylon is its high strength and good wear resistance, ranking first among all fibers.

Nylon has the same disadvantages as polyester, such as poor hygroscopicity and air permeability. In dry environment, nylon is easy to generate static electricity, and short fiber fabric is also easy to pilling. The heat resistance and light resistance of nylon are not good enough, and the ironing temperature should be controlled below 140℃. In addition, the shape retention of nylon is poor, and the clothes made of nylon are not as stiff as polyester and are easy to deform. But it can be attached with you. It is a good material for making shirts of various shapes.

Acrylic fiber

Acrylic fiber is a domestic commodity name, and its scientific name is polyacrylonitrile fiber. It is also called "Oren", "Court" and "Delaren" abroad. Acrylic fiber is white, curly and fluffy, and it feels soft, similar to wool. Often blended with wool or used as a substitute for wool, it is also called "synthetic wool".
