What kind of fabric is Tencel brocade?
The advantages and disadvantages of Tencel brocade fabrics. Tencel brocade fabrics are various fabrics made by interweaving nylon and Tencel and changing the tissue specifications. There is no blended Tencel brocade fabric yet. Tencel brocade fabrics The overall design innovation principle of fabrics is to highlight the wearability and ecological functions of Tencel, while nylon is used to improve texture and practicality.
Tencel brocade fabric is an interwoven product of nylon yarn and Tencel. Currently, there are two main ways of interweaving Tencel brocade fabric:
One is Tencel as warp, The biggest advantage of using nylon yarn in the weft direction, including nylon elastic yarn, and interweaving Tencel and nylon fabrics is that Tencel can still maintain With high content, wearing comfort is guaranteed. Regardless of appearance or internal function, Tencel is still dominant, 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.
Second, nylon yarn is used in the warp directionand 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.
In monofilament Tencel What role does nylon monofilament play in nylon fabrics?
Mainly to maintain the texture of silk, but also to have a certain degree of strength and strength, to ensure stiffness, and not to let the chemical fiber components affect the skin-friendly feel and air permeability. This kind of interwoven Tencel brocade fabric is generally designed as a thin fabric , very suitable for summer wear, and 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.
The two intertwined Tencel brocade fabrics introduced above represent the two current innovative ideas for Tencel brocade fabrics, 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.
