Polyamide can be obtained by ring-opening polymerization of lactic acid amines, or by polycondensation of diamines and dibasic acids. Nylon is a term for polyamide fiber (nylon), which can be made into long fibers or short fibers.
The emergence of nylon has given textiles a new look, and its synthesis is a major breakthrough in the synthetic fiber industry.
Polyamide (PA, commonly known as nylon) contains many repeated amide groups on its main chain. When used as a plastic, it is called nylon, and when used as a synthetic fiber, it is called nylon.
Summary Of The Characteristics Of Nylon Sewing Thread Fabrics
- The wear resistance of nylon thread fabrics is many times higher than that of other fiber fabrics of the same type.
- The hygroscopicity of nylon thread fabrics is a better variety among synthetic fiber fabrics, so clothing made of nylon is more comfortable to wear than polyester clothing.
- Nylon thread fabrics are light fabrics, suitable for making mountaineering clothes, winter clothing, etc.
- Nylon sewing thread has good elastic recovery, but it is easy to deform under external force, so its fabric is easy to wrinkle during wearing, and the fabric is not stiff. Therefore, nylon is often blended or interwoven with other fibers to improve the strength and fastness of the fabric.
- Nylon thread fabric has poor heat resistance and light resistance. During wearing and use, attention must be paid to the conditions of washing and maintenance to avoid damaging the fabric.
Conclusion
Nylon fiber fabrics can be divided into three categories: pure spinning, blending and interwoven, and each category contains many varieties. Nylon sewing thread fabric has good moisture absorption, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and is light and thin, so it is an ideal choice for sportswear, swimwear, fitness wear, down jackets, and mountaineering clothing.
