How much do you know about Metallic fibers?
2022-09-13

Metallic fiber is a special fiber that is different from traditional textile raw materials (cotton, wool, silk, hemp and chemical fiber, etc.), and the fiber diameter can reach 1~80μm, which is thinner than human hair. Metallic fiber have good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, magnetic conductivity and high temperature resistance, and the manufacturing method is relatively simple. Metallized fabrics mixed with Metallic fiber in ordinary textile fibers not only have the wearability of ordinary fabrics, but also have protective properties such as antistatic and anti-electromagnetic radiation.
Application of Metallic fiber in Textiles
Antistatic
Metallic fiber are injected into textiles. Due to the electrical conductivity of Metallic fiber, the ability to dissipate electrostatic charges is strong, and it is not easy to generate static electricity. The generated static electricity is also easier to dissipate, avoiding the accumulation of static electricity.
Anti-static clothing can be used for static work clothes and clean work clothes in professional workplaces, as well as uniforms and training clothes for the army and armed police. Ordinary civilian textiles, such as knitted sweaters and cashmere sweaters, can also add organic conductive fibers to avoid electrostatic interference in work and life.
Radiation protection
Metallic fiber radiation protection fabrics utilize the unique and stable electromagnetic shielding properties of Metallic fiber. At present, there are four types of radiation protection fabrics on the market: Metallic fiber radiation protection fabrics, multi-element (nano) radiation protection fabrics, copper/nickel ion radiation protection fabrics and silver fiber radiation protection fabrics.
Metallic fiber radiation protection fabric has high radiation protection performance, and Metallic fiberradiation protection fabric is more beautiful, washable, easy to color, good in air permeability, stable in shielding performance, and reasonable in manufacturing cost. It is the most commonly used radiation protection fabric at present. .
Antibacterial
Metallic fiber has good antibacterial properties, and its antibacterial effect is obvious and durable. Because of the strong metal ion, Metallic fiber textile fabrics can release 5000-8000 negative ions per square centimeter. It has been proved by the medical community that Metallic fiber products can inhibit and kill a variety of strains, and the antibacterial effect is satisfactory.
wire fabric
Metal wire fabrics refer to fabrics made by combining ordinary cotton, polyester or nylon fabrics with metal wires, of which cotton, polyester or nylon fabrics account for more than 90%, and metal wires account for a small proportion. , but just a little bit of wire makes the whole fabric different. The metal wire is made of high-tech technology to draw the metal wire. The higher the technical level, the better the quality of the metal wire. The greater the proportion of the metal wire, the higher the value of the metal wire fabric.
The uniqueness of metal wire fabrics is that metal wires are added to ordinary fabrics, and it is precisely because of the addition of metal wires that metal wire fabrics have unique characteristics.
1. The fabric has metallic luster, and with the change of the light source, the metallic luster will also change, flashing metallic light, gorgeous and dazzling.
2. The fabric has the memory function of shape change, the shape is easier to shape, and it is more stylish to wear on the body. This feature is also formed because of the bending variability of metal.
3. The fabric can prevent radiation, which is often in line with modern people's pursuit of health and environmental protection.
4. The fabric can eliminate static electricity and avoid the embarrassing situation caused by static electricity in ordinary fabrics.
5. The fabric has a reflective effect, which is extremely bright under the light, and the metallic light of the metal wire itself makes it even more brilliant.
