Polyester staple fiber has potential uses in the household
The concept of staple fibers may not be so widely known as a filament today Xiaobian introduce staple fiber staple fiber family of large family, polyester staple fiber and natural fiber strength, more durable, therefore, her application far more than Natural fiber to a wide range.
Polyester fiber sub-filament and short fiber two types. The so-called polyester filament, a length of more than 1000 meters of silk, filament winding into a group. polyester staple fiber is a few centimeters to ten centimeters of staple fiber.
Polyester fiber features and uses:
Strength: Polyester fiber strength nearly 1 times higher than cotton, wool 3 times higher, so strong and durable polyester fabric.
Heat resistance: can be used in 70 ~ 1700C, synthetic fiber is the best heat resistance and thermal stability.
Elastic: Polyester is close to the flexibility of the wool, wrinkle resistance than other fibers, the fabric is not wrinkle, good security.
Wear resistance: Polyester wear resistance second only to nylon, the second highest in synthetic fibers.
Water absorption: Polyester absorbent moisture regain low, good insulation properties, but due to low water absorption, friction generated static electricity, poor dyeing performance.
Polyester as clothing fibers, the fabric after washing to achieve non-wrinkle, no scalding effect. Often polyester and various fibers blended or intertwined, such as cotton polyester, wool and polyester, widely used in various clothing and decorative materials.
Although polyester staple fiber itself superior performance, but by blending with other fibers, can achieve special effects, the most common use is for apparel fabrics, bedding and other home.
