"Super Imitation" Presents A Craze In Quanzhou Textiles.

Coarse texture, rough appearance, looks like a piece of linen material, but feels soft touch.

Tai Lung holding group's imitation linen fabric has puzzled many people.

Because pure linen fabrics are more expensive, many textile companies including Tai Lung try to use polyester as raw material to make fabrics with similar appearance and linen.

In the past two months, this kind of imitation linen fabric has begun to have more and more companions, such as wool like and wool like fabrics, like silk and cotton imitation fabrics.

In the era of rising prices of raw materials, driven by cost considerations,

Textile enterprises have launched a "super imitation" R & D boom.

On the basis of ensuring the simulation effect of appearance and handle, the use of differential fiber can also give fabric higher comfort and functionality.

"Super imitation" textiles frequently appear

The same is superfine fiber, Tai Lung.

It is made of 100% polyester, which is made of splash and calender.

In addition to its simple style, exquisite style and so on, it can not be compared with the high-end hemp products, but more importantly, the cost and the selling price are much lower.

"In the production of more energy saving and emission reduction, the entire energy consumption reduced by 40%, saving a lot of costs.

In terms of price, compared with nylon fabrics, the price is nearly 50% lower and more competitive.

Liu Zhishun, deputy general manager of Taiwan long, has calculated a cost account.

After the success of the imitation linen fabric, Tai Lung is optimistic about the market space of the super imitation products, and has invested more and more in research and development.

At the same time, the whole industry's pursuit of super imitated fabrics also broke out this year.

At the fabric exhibition in Beijing, Sheng Hong fabrics introduced a series of imitation fabrics, such as imitation wool, Imitation cotton, imitation silk, and so on, and launched T/R+ silk and T/R+ high elastic two wool like fabrics.

Many textile enterprises have obtained the feel and appearance of imitation linen, Imitation cotton and silk like fabric through blending, interweaving or finishing process of raw materials.

It is worth mentioning that in a large number of "super imitation" textiles, "super Imitation cotton" can be said to be the most concerned category.

As a representative of Bai Hong poly fiber, many textile enterprises are investing in it.

The "super Imitation cotton polyester filament" jointly developed by polyhong and Donghua University has been put into mass production by the end of last year.

The fabric made of this polyester filament is almost the same as cotton fabric in both hand sense and visual sense.

Ambitious group, Tianhong textile, Fuhua company and other enterprises are also using chemical fiber super Imitation cotton technology instead of raw cotton fiber, increase the technology research and development and publicity of Imitation cotton products, in order to replace cotton products with frequent price fluctuations.

"Because cotton resources are limited, cotton products in the future may become high-grade products or even luxury goods, so the development and application of chemical fiber super Imitation cotton will become more and more important."

Du Yuzhou, honorary chairman of China Textile Industry Federation, and many other textile industry personages have made many public statements.

Better functionality

"Super parody, of course, is to surpass the original product on the basis of imitation."

A joke in the industry, in a word, points out that the super imitation products must have an alternative advantage -- better functionality.

Compared with the rough appearance of pure hemp, Tai Lung's imitation hemp fabric feels softer, can not stab hands, wear resistance and wrinkle resistance is better, and the good properties of polyester fiber are integrated into the product, which makes the product better.

Similarly, the super Imitation cotton, which looks like cotton and feels like cotton, greatly outperforms pure cotton in its sweat absorption, speed, dry matter, dye uptake, color fastness, abrasion resistance and anti fuzzing.

According to the relevant person in charge of the company, with the continuous improvement of technology, the 100 super Imitation cotton series products are launched this year by generation, such as the production of super cotton imitation filaments that are resistant to ultraviolet and cold in summer according to the requirements of warm winter and cool summer. The bamboo charcoal antibacterial and far-infrared hollow thermal insulation super cotton imitation filaments are used in winter. In addition, the three in one multi-functional cotton imitation products can be customized according to the special needs of customers.

The chemical fiber products are suitable for the characteristics of the diversified finishing process, and also enable many super imitation textiles to have antistatic, antibacterial, flame retardant, far-infrared, UV resistant and other additional functions.

"Many finishing processes cannot be added to cotton or linen fibers, which will change their original properties while chemical fibers can be accepted.

Therefore, we can give super imitation products more functional changes. "

Liu Zhishun said.

"

Development needs three stages.

The appearance is similar to that of changing the size and shape of the cross section; the performance is imitated: improving the fiber characteristics and approaching the ecological fabric from appearance and handle; functional imitation not only has the performance of the ecological fabric, but also surpasses the ecological fabric in the functions of water absorption, breathability, moisture absorption, moisture emission, antistatic, thermal stability, mechanical performance and so on.

In the first two stages, the original advantages of ecological fabrics are obvious, chemical fiber is the same, and can only surpass in the final functional stage.

This is not just the development of single differentiated technology or single functional products, which puts forward higher requirements for R & D technology of enterprises. The technology of super imitation pays more attention to the integration of various differentiation and functional technologies, and emphasizes the integration of polymerization, spinning, weaving and dyeing and finishing technology.

Industry insiders believe.

Still pay attention to green and low carbon

The strength is higher than that of cotton yarn 30%~50%, the production speed of the circular knitting machine can be increased by 20%~30% per day, and the dye uptake rate of the super Imitation cotton polyester filament is higher than that of the ordinary polyester yarn by 10%~20%, so the dyeing and finishing loss rate is 10% lower than that of the pure cotton.

The dyeing cost per ton of cotton is as high as 12000 yuan, while the dyeing cost per ton of polyester is only 6000 yuan.

The super Imitation cotton has successfully achieved energy saving and emission reduction.

While researching and developing new products of super imitation, green, low carbon, energy saving and environmental protection are still the focus of textile enterprises.

The textile enterprises in Quanzhou adopt the recyclable and recyclable environment-friendly fiber materials such as bamboo fiber, corn fiber, seaweed fiber and recycled polyester, so as to realize the green environment protection of super imitation products.

Haixing Mstar Technology Ltd this year's main push on the new biomass shrex, is a green alternative to new products.

Schwartz is a kind of industrial production of biomass elastic short fiber. The fabric made of this fabric has comfortable elasticity, natural and soft handle and is not easy to wrinkle and is not easy to deform.

It is a bio environmental friendly fiber made from plant renewable resources through special production methods. It helps to reduce the dependence on petroleum and petrochemical products. Compared with the nylon 6 fiber produced by petro chemical method, producing the same amount of TM can reduce 63% of carbon dioxide emissions and reduce energy consumption by 30%.

"Shose silk can be blended with cotton, wool, silk, linen, viscose, Tencel, polyester and other textile materials. It not only preserves the properties of the original material, but also adds soft and elastic experience, and can adapt to all kinds of clothing fields."

Ouyang Wenxian, chairman of Haixing, said.

In addition, many enterprises, including Xin Hua share, have devoted themselves to recycling economy, which is mainly recycled from waste polyester.

After rolling the recycled Coke bottles into pieces, they are processed into regenerated Recycle filament yarn, and then woven into textiles after twisting.

The recycled fiber did not reduce the durability, strength and wear resistance of the original polyester, but it was more than conventional production.

Nearly 80% of energy was saved.
