What is the difference between viscose fiber and polyester fiber?

In fact, they all belong to chemical fiber, there is no difference between good and bad, and each has its own performance characteristics. Viscose fiber is a widely used chemical fiber. Viscose fiber fabric, also known as Tencel, is a kind of sports and environmental protection fabric. Because of the special molecular structure of its nanowires, it is like a pipe for air circulation on the surface of the fabric, which ensures the full circulation of oxygen and locks the moisture, so it has a quite good humidity control effect.

Polyester fiber is a synthetic fiber spun from polyester condensed by organic diacid and diol. According to the research report of polyester chain, a large number of polyester fibers produced in industry are made of polyethylene terephthalate, and the trade name in China is polyester, which is the most variety of synthetic fibers at present.

The full name of viscose fiber is viscose fiber, which is obtained by extracting fiber molecules from natural lignocellulose with "wood" as raw material and modifying it.

Its preparation process is as follows: Alkaline cellulose takes plant cellulose as raw material, and then reacts with carbon disulfide to generate cellulose xanthate, which is dissolved in dilute alkali solution to obtain viscous solution called viscose, and is made into viscose fiber through wet spinning and a series of treatment procedures.

The hygroscopicity of viscose fiber meets the physiological requirements of human skin, and it has the characteristics of smoothness, coolness, breathability, antistatic, ultraviolet protection, bright color and good dyeing fastness? . It has the essence of cotton and the quality of silk. It is an authentic plant fiber, which comes from nature and is superior to nature. At present, it is widely used in all kinds of underwear, textiles, clothing, nonwovens and other fields.
