What is ice linen fabric?
Ice linen is a type of knitted clothing fabric. It is usually made of viscose filament and nylon yarn in a ratio of 7:3. During the processing, the viscose is covered on the surface. In this case, there will be traces on the outside of the fabric. It is very hydrophilic, but the inside of the fabric lacks the opposite, which is hydrophobic. Also because the ice linen fabric has these properties, the fabric will be very cool after being worn, and ice linen is named after it.
Ice linen fabric advantages:
1. Ice Linen fabric absorbs moisture and is cool. The key is that the fabric does not irritate the skin, so ice linen is often used to produce underwear.
2. The fabric is very good in terms of fastness and elasticity, and the inner and outer fabrics of the clothes are smooth. Many summer ultra-thin clothes on the market are made of ice linen fabric.
3. The ice linen fabric has a natural color after dyeing and will not flash or aurora under any light.
4. Excellent anti-wrinkle performance is also one of the advantages of ice linen. There will be no creases after folding or washing.
Disadvantages of ice linen fabrics:
The feel and comfort of ice linen fabrics are not as good as cotton, so many clothing processing manufacturers give fabrics Adding soft finishing agents will also increase the cost of clothing production. Even if these agents are used, the comfort and feel are still average.
Ice linen processing matters needing attention
1. In the ice linen processing process, the later finishing process is more important than the early stage. Reactive dyes must be used for dyeing. The viscose is then over-dyed with weakly acidic dyes. The factory will not use the nylon dyeing process because the nylon may be exposed after the fabric is processed and stretched.
2. In the blending process, nylon and viscose are not in a parallel relationship. In order to achieve the dyeing effect of the viscose on the outside, more fibers are needed. For long dyeing times, reactive dyes are generally used in dye selection, which is one of the reasons why ice linen fabrics are easy to wash.
3. Because nylon components will remain in the yarn, in order to avoid the phenomenon of nylon competition dyeing, a nylon dye inhibitor must be added during the process. Otherwise, the colors of viscose and nylon will be inconsistent.
