What is nylon?

It is the general name of polyamide fiber produced in China.

1, definition

Nylon is the Chinese name of synthetic fiber nylon, which is also translated as "nylon" and "nylon". The scientific name is polyamide fiber, that is, polyamide fiber. Jinzhou Chemical Fiber Factory is the first factory in China to synthesize polyamide fiber, hence the name "nylon". It is the earliest synthetic fiber variety in the world, and is widely used because of its excellent performance and rich raw material resources.

Step 2 perform

(1) has good strength and wear resistance, ranking first among all fibers. Its wear resistance is 10 times of cotton fiber, 10 times of dry viscose fiber and 140 times of wet fiber. Therefore, its durability is very good.

(2) Nylon fabric has excellent elasticity and elastic recovery, but it is easy to deform under a small external force, so its fabric is easy to wrinkle during wearing.

(3) poor ventilation and permeability, easy to generate static electricity.

(4) The hygroscopicity of nylon fabric is a good variety in synthetic fiber fabric, so clothing made of nylon is more comfortable than polyester clothing.

(5) Good moth resistance and corrosion resistance.
