REGENERATED FIBERS

Polynosic Fibers

The manufacturing process of polynosic fibers is nearly the same as that of rayon fibers. However, the wet tenacity is improved and has both similar characteristics of cotton fibers and excellence of silk fibers.

1. END-USES
  • [FOR CLOTHING]
    Fabrics for Women's Wear, Interlinings, Shirts, Blouses, Sport Pants, Working Wear, Towel, Sheets, etc.
  • [FOR HOME FURNISHINGS AND BEDDING]
    Carpets, Cover for Home Furnishings, Blankets, Sheets, Bedclothes, etc.
  • [FOR INDUSTRIAL USES]
    Cover of Electric Wire, Canvas, etc.
  • [FOR OTHER USES]
    Handicraft Yarns, Bags, Cloth for Textile Shoes, Substrate Cloth for Rubber Coated Fabrics, etc.
2. FEATURES
  1. Fabrics of fine count/denier yarn is possible thanks to the high tenacity. Thus, polynosic fabrics have excellent luster as the silk fabric and dry tactile feeling. In addition, because polynosic fibers are friendly with other types of fibers, they are suitable for blended and union cloth.
  2. Laundering will make little shrinkage and shape deformation.
  3. Resistant to acid and alkali. Fabrics blended with cotton may be mercerized or sanforized.
