What should I pay attention to when using microfiber? The following are guidelines for the use of microfiber:
1. Low temperature ironing, temperature control within 100 ° C, because its melting point is low.
2. The optimum temperature for dry heat setting is 70-80 °C, and the steam setting (wet heat state) does not exceed 120 °C.
3. When superfine denier polypropylene is used for weaving, it can be shaped by steam, but the pressure must be lower than that of cotton.
4. Avoid the use of mineral oil-based lubricants, because mineral oil and polypropylene fiber are the products of petroleum refining, which is compatible and can damage polypropylene fiber.
5. Free dry cleaning, although ultra-fine polypropylene fiber is chemically resistant (acid and alkali resistant), the unknown organic solvent used in dry cleaning may still cause damage to polypropylene fiber, unless the type of organic solvent used has no effect on PP. .
6. Carefully choose softener according to the application: When it is required to input hydrophilicity, it is necessary to add hydrophilic softener; when hydrophobicity is required, it is necessary to add hydrophobic softener.
7. Since the microfiber has no polar group, it can bond with the general resin, so the latter stage is not easy to process, the resin is not easy to adhere, and the washing resistance is not good.
8. The static electricity generated by the friction of microfiber is generally negative, which is different from the positive electricity generated by polyester and nylon. If antistatic agent is added, please choose cationic antistatic agent.
9. microfiber is a flammable fiber, and its flame resistance is inferior to that of polyester and nylon (combustible fiber). When the fabric requires flame retardancy, a flame retardant is added.
10. microfibers are more susceptible to light (UV) oxidative cracking than polyester and nylon. If the fabric is required for long-term outdoor use (such as beach umbrellas, beach chairs, golf bags, car seat cushions, etc.), a light stabilizer should be added. Overcome this problem, and the general use of clothing is not such a scruples.
Through the above introduction, do you have any understanding of the matters needing attention in microfiber?
