Super Absorbent Fiber

Speaking of innovative SAF technology, David Hill, manager of TAL business development company, thinks that super absorbent fiber has broad application prospects in the field of technical fabrics.

It has unique application potential both in outdoor functional clothing and sportswear.

The innovative company that develops this product is the United Kingdom and China LAN-STAR group co founded LAN-STAR Fiber Co., Ltd.

They succeeded in adopting art level production methods and control protocols.

SAF is an odorless white appearance with good appearance and can improve the quality of textile fibers and fabrics.

It has high absorbability, strong toughness, and can adapt to different needs and different regions of fiber products.

It can even be used for wire rope and rope.

Its production technology was originally developed by a technology water absorbing material Co., Ltd.

As a super absorbent material, it can pform the structure of different yarns of different properties, allowing simple structural changes within the scope of its own structure, so that the fabric and yarn profile structure can be changed.

Since 90s, many fiber development enterprises in the world have begun to seek cooperation widely, and develop new products with fiber structural change technical experts and end product manufacturers.

Today, they have been developing new products in the field of non spinning, yarn products, mechanism fabric market and consumer goods, leading in the field of technology.

Asian market potential

There are three manufacturers of polymer absorbent fiber in the United States, Japan and the United Kingdom.

TAL is one of the best in Britain.

This kind of polymer absorbent fiber is called SAF for short. It has been widely used in the world, such as fiber optic cable, water blocking, paper making, textile, horticulture, building, machine oil filtration, food packaging and hygiene.

The most important functions of SAF are strong water absorption, physiological salt absorption and moisture absorption and sweat absorption.

The maximum water absorption of SAF is two hundred times that of raw fiber, and the maximum absorption of normal saline is 60 times that of itself.

SAF is a pure white, tasteless and high tensile fiber material. Its application is second to none in the world.

The uses of SAF mainly include the following aspects: (1).SAF can be spun into yarn and woven into cloth, which is used for moisture absorption and sweat absorption in sportswear and underwear.

(2) SAF can be used in non-woven fabrics for use in medical and construction industries.

(3) SAF can be used in water blocking yarn and water blocking zone to make water more convenient and safer than SAP.

The water resistant yarn / ribbon made of this material has been widely used in Europe and America, but it is still a relatively new product in China.

(4).SAF can be used in the papermaking industry, especially in women's health products and surgical treatment.

SAF can also be used in gardening, architecture, food packaging and other fields.

Nowadays, the largest application market of SAF is the field of food packaging, especially in Europe and America, which has been widely applied.

In the field of textiles, SAF has been widely used in technical textiles and is growing.

The market of this product is regarded as the most potential market in Asia.

International experts believe that this product should have a good market in China and India.

Why? Because this technology requires highly skilled manual skills and high level of textile technology.

But it also means that they must have a good understanding of SAF technology before they can get new product application and development.

For example, there are a large number of potential technical fabrics in the SAF super absorbent field in India market.

Woven mesh products and linked processing materials are most suitable for this type of weaving industry.

Therefore, the corresponding mechanical equipment can also be easily developed in these fields.

According to the BCH Research Institute of TAL company, the growth rate of protective textiles in India in 2008 was 25%.

The main reason is the active adoption of TAL based technology.

Strong and powerful development of SAF in the world

In the field of textile and clothing, the application of SAF has been in the ascendant.

In the past few years, despite the economic turmoil, the launch of functional clothing new products has not stopped one day.

Its main fiber textile products are multi-layer fabric, variable material composite and fabric with heat and moisture absorption management.

Among them, the three tier composite products are the most common.

In 2005, SAF nonwoven heat dissipation technology was made of super absorbent materials.

The application field of multi-layer composite cooling textile materials is far beyond the scope of people's vision.

Because it has taken a new step in the field of refrigeration and insulation, making people get more applications in both water absorption and waterproof, and even in the field of nonwoven soft packing.

This is because it also has the functions of quick drying, breathing, heat preservation and so on.

In dyeing water, it also has water activity, that is, cooling function, creating an ideal evaporation environment.

The outer layer of this fabric material has respiratory function, fast drying, rapid moisture pfer, and the inner layer will soon be heated and exported.

Therefore, wearing on the body makes people feel cool and comfortable without feeling damp.

Its terminal products are very suitable for wearing in desert.

Evaporative cooling can make thermoregulation to meet the needs of people, which works like sweating.

When water evaporates from the surface, heat is absorbed and the liquid is changed into gas. This is the most natural way of mechanical cooling.

Once the thermal system is activated, heat reaches the inner layer through the head, and the body and the cooling system interact to achieve the purpose of regulation.

At this point, the binding function of the fiber ensures slow humidity control.

In this way, he can keep cool and comfortable for several hours.

Therefore, the evaporation mode is so effective that it is equivalent to 7 times the efficiency of heat melting ice.

When heat becomes directly from the body to active water molecules, it is like a radiator.

Mechanical heat conduction, which is driven entirely by temperature difference, makes the fiber the most natural air conditioner, but it will not last longer.

Use of pformation materials

The development of the three layer composite cooling fabric is inseparable from the fiber cooling technology.

This disguised material can provide a cap and protective armor on the surface of the fabric, limit the temperature rise and limit the sweat to a minimum.

The disguised technology of this product continuously produces unparalleled human microclimate, which makes extreme temperatures (extremely hot or extremely cold) relaxed.

This material from head to toe has been patented.

And the first product is to produce baseball caps for teams and fans.

The endothermic function of heterogeneous materials must be the most appropriate.

If it exceeds the needs of the human body, it may be overheated or undercooled.

However, the intervention of SAF means that human beings can achieve some degree of their needs.

This is equivalent to the cooling cap.

And it carries out thermal pformation continuously.

At this time, human beings are continuing to explore new ways. They need to further develop and further optimize SAF to meet human needs.

Technology for yarn thermal and humidity management

Of course, in addition to TAL, the latest development of fiber cooling technology can also be enduring heat and durability.

Before that, they made various attempts to maintain the moisture and temperature required for the textile yarns.

Because of the continuous pformation effect of human body activities, the clothes can achieve sweat and constant temperature, and the air circulation in clothing can be achieved.

However, woven fabrics made of such yarns can absorb sweat quickly, while the surface contacted with skin keeps relatively dry and conducts heat and humidity.

This ideal fabric can be made into close fitting underwear, especially for military and personal emergency needs.

The yarn itself contains many fiber technologies combined with SAF, which have some special functions respectively.

The most important functions are heat dissipation and moisture removal.

Prior to this, TAL had developed comfort tests in order to avoid wearing the authors' discomfort while developing bulletproof vests and diving suits.

The extra sweat will soon be absorbed from the skin. When the clothes are wet, it will also increase the heat conduction speed of hot spots through heat conduction to make them suitable for human beings.

The structure of this yarn ensures its high durability.

This opens wider and wider space for the development of textile technology.

It needs to be pointed out that this project is still under development.

Fiber technology organizations like TAL also plan to make the best choice on materials to achieve the best effect of dissipating heat.

The company's R & D team has begun to develop products in the field of outdoor and sportswear.

As a functional garment, the growth rate of sportswear has been rising.

The market numbers of its research and statistics are very exciting.

Therefore, such development needs cooperation with many fiber textile companies.

Because they also need to solve fabric structure such as fabric thickness and washable yarn.

All in all, the development of world-class innovative heat absorbing textile fiber products needs to predict the market and demand, so that these companies can be at the forefront of the times.
