What kind of fabric is Tencel brocade?
The advantages and disadvantages of Tencel brocade fabric. Tencel brocade fabric is a variety of fabrics made by interweaving nylon and Tencel through changes in organizational specifications. There is no blended Tencel brocade fabric yet. The general design innovation principle of Tencel brocade fabric is to highlight the wearing performance and ecological function of Tencel, while nylon is used to improve texture and practicality.
Tencel brocade fabric is an interwoven product of nylon silk and Tencel. The current interweaving method of Tencel brocade fabric There are two main types:
One is Tencel as warp, The weft direction uses nylon yarn, including nylon elastic yarn, and interwoven Tencel nylon fabric. The biggest advantage of this design idea is that Tencel can still maintain a high content and is comfortable to wear. Guaranteed, both appearance and inner function are still dominated by Tencel, which also allows Tencel brocade fabrics to maintain high-quality attributes. The reason why Tencel is very popular in the fashion industry is that Tencel can maintain excellent comfort and is eco-friendly. Compared with traditional textile raw materials, it has more innovative features. These are very popular elements in fashion. Therefore, Tencel is used as warp yarn and nylon yarn is interwoven. This kind of interwoven Tencel brocade fabric has excellent comfort and also has ecological functions. Compared with traditional interwoven fabrics, it has outstanding characteristics. In addition, interwoven Tencel brocade fabric has a large space for innovation and a wide range of functions. , and not easy to be homogenized, this is the advantage of Tencel brocade fabric.
The second is to use nylon yarn in the warp direction, Tencel is used in the weft direction. This kind of interwoven Tencel brocade fabric is also called brocade Tencel fabric. In order to reduce the impact of nylon yarn on wearing comfort, currently nylon yarn is mainly 20D monofilament, which we call monofilament Tencel nylon fabric. 20D nylon monofilament is very thin. Although it is used as a warp, the nylon content is still very low, generally less than 20%, and the Tencel content can reach more than 80%. It can also highlight the comfort, softness and ecological functions of Tencel to the greatest extent possible. The quality is very high.
What role does nylon monofilament play in monofilament Tencel nylon fabric?
It is mainly to maintain the silk texture, but also has certain muscles and bones to ensure stiffness, and will not let the chemical fiber ingredients affect the skin-friendly feel and breathability With excellent moisture permeability, this kind of intertwined Tencel fabric is generally designed as a thin fabric and is very suitable for summer wear. There are currently a wide range of categories on the market. But it is undeniable that no matter how innovative ideas are improved on interwoven Tencel and brocade fabrics, as long as nylon filaments exist, its chemical fiber properties will affect the wearing comfort and ecological properties. This is also an insurmountable shortcoming of interwoven Tencel and brocade fabrics. What we have to do is to minimize the negative impact of nylon yarn, highlight the selling points of Tencel, and create new value.
Above The two interwoven Tencel brocade fabrics introduced represent two innovative ideas for Tencel brocade fabrics at present, and both have become mainstream design solutions. These two designs of Tencel brocade fabrics have completely different requirements for the weaving process. Using Tencel as the warp yarn, you can use the warp beam of pure Tencel fabric, which is more flexible and can be designed to be thicker; using nylon monofilament as the warp yarn, this kind of Tencel brocade fabric can only rely on professional weaving technology, and is not suitable Make heavy fabrics.
