Oxford cloth mainly includes polyester and nylon (nylon). What I want to share with you today is polyester Oxford cloth. The color points of polyester Oxford cloth have a clear effect. The fabric is light, waterproof, bending resistant, anti-static, anti-tear, and also fire-resistant.
Polyester is divided into filament yarn and stretch yarn. Elastic fibers are divided into high, medium and low elastic fibers. Polyester low elastic fibers are curly and polyester high elastic fibers are straight.
Characteristics of polyester filament
- Strength: The strength of polyester fiber is nearly 1 times higher than cotton and 3 times higher than wool, so polyester fabric is strong and durable.
- Heat resistance: It can be used at -70℃~170℃, and has the best heat resistance and thermal stability among synthetic fibers.
- Elasticity: The elasticity of polyester is close to that of wool, and its wrinkle resistance exceeds that of other fibers. The fabric does not wrinkle and has good shape retention.
- Abrasion resistance: The abrasion resistance of polyester is second only to nylon, ranking second among synthetic fibers.
- Water absorption: Polyester has low water absorption and moisture regain and good insulation properties. However, due to low water absorption, large static electricity generated by friction, and poor natural adsorption of dyes, polyester is generally dyed using high-temperature and high-pressure dyeing methods.
Elastic silk can be divided They are high, medium and low elastic yarns. High elastic elongation means high elastic yarns, and vice versa means low elastic yarns. In terms of materials, high elastic yarns are generally nylon and polypropylene, while low elastic yarns are generally polyester, nylon, etc. The specific difference between high-elastic yarn and low-elastic yarn is that compared with low-elastic yarn, the fluffy and bending state of the yarn is larger and more curved than that of low-elastic yarn. You can clearly feel the elasticity when pulling both ends of high-elastic yarn. .
Some people often don’t know what the specifications of Oxford cloth mean. Usually we are used to using “D” as the representative, such as 1800D, 1680D, 1200D, 900D, 600D , 420D, 300D, 210D, 150D Oxford cloth. The larger the number in front of “D”, the thicker, wear-resistant and durable the Oxford cloth fabric is.
When Oxford cloth is a white embryo, it does not have any characteristics or uses, but a powerful finishing process that transforms Oxford cloth into something waterproof, fireproof, Anti-static, sun protection, UV protection, mildew resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, etc., are these simple to mention, all must be professionally tested and qualified.
Applications of polyester Oxford cloth:
- Outdoor series : Beach chairs, tents, carports, awnings, mobile tents, camping, pergola, etc.;
- Luggage series: trolley cases, backpacks, computer bags, business bags, backpacks, tool bags, cosmetic bags, handbags Bags, etc.;
- Children series: strollers, slings, waist stools, baby seats, etc.;
- Home series: wardrobes, storage boxes, suit bags, aprons, etc.) and shoes Material fabrics, rehabilitation equipment fabrics, etc.;
- Special fabrics: such as fire-retardant polyester Oxford cloth are also used in passenger car sunshades, motor vehicle seats, coverings, ships, aviation and other fields.
