With the progress of science and technology and the improvement of people's living standards, fluorescent fabrics have attracted more and more attention. So how much do we know about fluorescent fabrics? Now let's take a brief look at the basic situation of fluorescent fabrics.
1、 Overview of fluorescent fabric: fluorescent fabric is called fluorescent fabric because of its bright color and full luster. The main colors of fluorescent fabrics include fluorescent yellow, fluorescent orange and fluorescent red. The most common is polyester/cotton fluorescent fabric, which is made of high-grade FDY or DTY filament and combed pure cotton sand thread. Due to the use of 3/1 or 4/1 twill weave, the polyester floating point on the cloth surface is far more than cotton, and the cotton floating point is concentrated on the back, as if the polyester covered the cotton, so it is also called polyester covered cotton. The front side of the fabric is easy to dye bright colors, with full luster, and the back side is high strength cotton, with great strength and very comfortable fit. In addition, there are all cotton fluorescent fabrics, cotton brocade fluorescent fabrics, etc.
2、 Function of fluorescent fabrics: As mentioned in the overview, fluorescent fabrics are mainly used for warning safety, such as traffic police clothing, environmental sanitation clothing, marine life-saving appliances, etc., due to their bright color and full luster.
3、 The process of fluorescent fabric: the dyeing of cotton fluorescent fabric has always been the difficulty of fluorescent fabric dyeing. In order to improve the brightness of cotton woven fluorescent fabric, mercerize and whiten the fabric in the pretreatment process to improve the chemical activity and brightness of the fabric; Before dyeing, the fabric was pretreated with mixed rare earth chloride to improve the dye uptake; During the finishing process, control the setting temperature and calender the fabric to improve the dyeing depth and brightness of the cotton fluorescent yellow fabric, and meet the requirements of EN471 standard for brightness.
4、 Prospects of fluorescent fabrics: fluorescent fabrics with individual functions have gradually failed to meet people's needs in this regard. Multi-functional fluorescent fabrics emerging in the market are more and more popular and loved by people. For example, anti-static, waterproof, flame-retardant and other functions have been developed on this fabric. There is a very broad market demand for fluorescent fabrics with single function or multiple functions. Textile has unique advantages in fluorescent fabrics. From dyeing to finishing, it has a complete set of professional equipment and mature technology to ensure quality and delivery time and provide high-quality services for customers.
