“Breathing” bamboo charcoal fiber, a touch of green among textile materials!

Bamboo charcoal is another new environmentally friendly material with excellent performance developed from bamboo resources. Bamboo charcoal is formed by drying and carbonizing bamboo at a high temperature of 800 degrees. Bamboo charcoal has strong adsorption and decomposition capabilities, can absorb moisture, dry, deodorize and antibacterial, and has negative ion penetration and other properties.

Bamboo charcoal fiber uses nanotechnology. Bamboo charcoal is micronized, and then the nano-sized bamboo charcoal powder is processed through high-tech technology, and then the traditional chemical fiber preparation process is used to spin and shape it to prepare qualified bamboo charcoal fiber.

The cross-section of bamboo charcoal fiber is covered with large and small oval pores, which can be instantly Absorbs and evaporates large amounts of water. The high degree of hollowness of the natural cross-section has led industry experts to call bamboo charcoal fiber a “breathing” fiber, and also called it the “Queen of Fibers.”

Currently, there are two main types of popular bamboo charcoal fibers on the market:

One ​​type is (viscose-based) bamboo charcoal fiber. This fiber is bamboo charcoal made from high-quality mountain and wild moso bamboo in southern my country. It is crushed into nano-scale ultra-fine powder through special processing technology, and then added Into viscose, functional fibers are spun.

The other category belongs to (polyester-based) bamboo charcoal fiber , the fiber production method is to add ultrafine bamboo charcoal powder into polyester chips and make it through a melt spinning process.

Although (polyester-based) bamboo charcoal fiber has a stronger strength than ( Viscose-based) bamboo charcoal fiber has high fiber content. Bamboo charcoal fiber has some characteristics of bamboo charcoal. In terms of adsorption and antibacterial properties, (viscose-based) bamboo charcoal fiber is far superior to (polyester-based) bamboo charcoal fiber. The main reasons areViscose fiber is a regenerated cellulose fiber, and (viscose-based) bamboo charcoal fiber uses bamboo charcoal powder dispersed in cellulose with a hollow and groove structure to embody the characteristics of bamboo charcoal.

Xinxiang Chemical Fiber Co., Ltd. was the first to successfully develop it in China Bamboo charcoal viscose fiber was invented and obtained the national invention patent (Patent No.: 200310110113.9). At present, the bamboo charcoal viscose long and short yarns successfully developed by the company have formed a mass production scale, and the products are exported to Europe, the United States, the Middle East, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Southeast Asian markets; this product has also formed a large-scale domestic market in recent years. industrial chain.

Bamboo charcoal fiber has excellent physical properties

Bamboo charcoal viscose fiber contains bamboo charcoal micro powder, because bamboo charcoal has the characteristics of ultra-large specific surface area and ultra-high adsorption Therefore, the fiber fully embodies the functions of bamboo charcoal in adsorbing odors, emitting elegant fragrance, preventing bacteria and inhibiting bacteria, blocking electromagnetic radiation, emitting far-infrared rays, regulating temperature and humidity, and beautifying skin care.

Bamboo charcoal fiber has a wide range of uses

Bamboo charcoal fiber has a wide range of applications. From the perspective of end uses, it can be roughly divided into the following categories:

1) Bedding: mattresses, pillows, bedspreads, sheets And other fabrics, bamboo charcoal viscose short fiber can also be used as bedding filler.

2) wristband , socks, towels, insoles and other products, because of their far-infrared emission and electromagnetic radiation shielding functions, they are very suitable for health and protective clothing for the elderly, infants and pregnant women.

3) Medical Mine Protection: This fiber has the functions of adsorption, conductivity, and resistance to electromagnetic radiation. It can be used for medical protective clothing and work clothing at mining, oil, and natural gas operations..

4) Military aerospace: Bamboo charcoal viscose fiber can be used for protective clothing for missile and rocket launch operators.

5) Transportation and tourism : Bamboo charcoal viscose fiber is suitable for making seat fabrics and interior decoration items for vehicles such as cars, boats, and airplanes, as well as decoration items for hotels, auditoriums, etc.

6) Environmental protection and Life: Bamboo charcoal viscose fiber can also be used as anti-electromagnetic radiation masks for household appliances, such as protective covers for mobile phones, TVs, computers, microwave ovens and other supplies, bed curtains, tablecloths and other home decoration supplies; it can also be used as air filter materials, such as air conditioners, Air supply equipment, etc.
