Nylon, the scientific name of polyamide fiber, is a general term for polyamide fibers produced in China. Most countries in the world call it nylon. Nylon has high strength, wear resistance, and good resilience. It can be used in pure and blended fabrics and knitted fabrics. The most important types of golden wheels are nylon 6 and nylon 66, and their physical properties are not much different. Nylon has better hygroscopicity and dyeability than polyester. It is very resistant to alkali but not acid. Long-term exposure to sunlight will rapidly reduce its fiber strength. Nylon has heat-setting properties and can maintain the bending deformation formed when heated. The filament of nylon can be made into elastic yarn with good elasticity, and the short yarn can be blended with cotton or acrylic to improve its strength and elasticity. In addition to the application in clothing and accessories, nylon is also widely used in other industries , such as cords, transmission belts, hoses, ropes, fishing nets, etc. Therefore, nylon can be used not only to make clothes, but also to make various products with high strength.
Nylon material has high strength and good wear resistance, ranking first among all man-made fibers. Its abrasion resistance is 10 times that of cotton fibers, 10 times that of dry viscose fibers, and 140 times that of wet fibers. Therefore, it can be said that its durability is excellent. The elasticity and elastic recovery of nylon fabric are extremely good, but it is not easy to deform under small external force, so the fabric made of it is easy to wrinkle during wearing. Poor ventilation and ventilation, easy to generate static electricity. The hygroscopicity of nylon fabrics is a good variety among synthetic fiber
Woven Fabric, but it is not the best, so clothes made of nylon are more comfortable to wear than polyester clothes. It has good moth resistance and corrosion resistance, but the heat and light resistance is not good enough, and the ironing temperature should be controlled below 140 ° C. In the process of wearing and using, you must pay attention to the conditions of washing and maintenance, so as not to damage the fabric. Nylon fabric is a lightweight fabric, after all, it is a civilian material. Nylon is only listed after polypropylene and acrylic fabrics in synthetic fiber fabrics. Therefore, it is suitable for making mountaineering clothes, jackets, etc.
There are really many varieties of nylon, including the aforementioned nylon 6, nylon 66, as well as nylon 11, nylon 610, etc. The most important ones are nylon 66 and nylon 6. But you need to know that the properties of various nylons are not exactly the same. The common feature is that there are amide chains on the main chain of macromolecules, which can absorb water molecules and form a crystalline structure. Therefore, the wear resistance is extremely good, and they are all excellent clothing.
