The Cost Of "Corn Clothes" Is Only Four To 1/5 Of Mulberry Silk.

High temperature of 38 degrees Celsius.

Honghe Town, Xiuzhou District, Jiaxing.

Gao Xiaohua stood outside the window of the office and looked out. The road in the town was white with a layer of white light on the scorching sun. In such hot weather, few people went out. Gao Xiaohua looked at the time and decided to go to an appointment.

Honghe town is famous throughout the country. Cardigan Hometown. Gao Xiaohua also runs a sweater company with nearly 30 years of history. Unlike the sweater boss here, he founded his own in 1998. Men's wear brand 。

Jiaxing City Central Plaza, general manager of Jiaxing new fashion eco Textile Technology Co., Ltd. has already made tea in the office. 2 minutes later, Gao Xiaohua knocked on the door of the office. This is the gathering of two old friends who have not seen in ten years, but not only that.

Tackling two major injuries for 8 years successfully declared more than 10 national patents

Why do we want to develop corn fiber products? We still use the four words of "coincidence". It turns out that a few years ago, Shang's father suffered from senile skin itching. In order to alleviate his father's symptoms, he used to search for ecological non sensitive fabrics and found corn fiber.

So, Shang began to ponder: many people with allergy in life can develop this material into clothes suitable for infants, old people and so on.

The idea is not easy to achieve. In order to overcome the two fatal injuries of corn fiber made of clothes, they are afraid of high temperature and hard feeling. In recent years, their company has carried out extensive cooperation with domestic research institutes such as Donghua University, Soochow University and Zhejiang Sci-Tech University, and has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in improving fabric softness and durability, and overcome a series of technical problems. Finally, after 8 years of research and development, more than 10 new products of national patent began to be put on the market.

The invention relates to a pure polylactic acid fiber underwear underpants fabric, which solves the problem that the polylactic acid fiber in the prior art can not achieve 100% pure spinning. This pure polylactic acid fiber underwear underwear fabric is made of 100% pure polylactic acid fiber. In the good offices, there are many certificates of invention, as well as new products developed by the company using corn fiber.

The cost of "corn clothes" is only four to 1/5 of mulberry silk.

"Now that the technology of corn fiber is mature, we can do 100% without adding." In addition to developing clothing, the company has applied corn fiber to socks, quilts, underwear and other home textiles and daily necessities.

"Besides the renewable and degradable environmental benefits, what advantages do corn fiber clothes have compared with ordinary clothes?" asked Gao Xiaohua.

"The clothes made of corn fiber are hygroscopic and sweating. They are easy to clean, feel good and are not easy to deform." SHANG Jia said, "corn clothes" sweating is 3 to 4 times higher than cotton clothing, but also has the natural luster and drape of silk. Moreover, compared with the garments produced by petroleum products, the colors are bright and pleasing to the eye. Because the production process has not undergone any special treatment, "corn clothing" does not generate static electricity, has no stimulation to the skin, is soft and comfortable and can play the role of anti ultraviolet.

In order to verify the permeability of corn fiber, he had taken off his sneakers. "My corn socks will not wear strange smell for three or four consecutive days." SHANG Jia said that the good extension of corn fiber made the socks that he wore on his feet for several years to take off and remained the same as new ones.

"Last year, we participated in the third China Corn Industry Expo. The first day of the corn fiber stockings were sold out." SHANG Jia said with pride.

When it comes to the cost of materials that Gao Xiaohua is concerned about, he also said that the cost of corn fiber is slightly higher than that of pure cotton. So compared with ordinary cotton clothes, the cost of corn fiber clothing is higher than that of ordinary clothes, but it is only four to 1/5 of the cost of mulberry silk.

"We are the first and only one in China to produce 100% corn fiber garments. Judging from the current sales situation of the products, I am quite optimistic about the prospect of corn fiber clothing. After listening to the good introduction, Gao Xiaohua was somewhat excited. In his view, the development of traditional textile enterprises mainly lies in upgrading and upgrading, embracing new technologies, enhancing product added value and market competitiveness.

Finally, the commitment of the two companies to cooperate with each other is as follows: as the saying goes, with the increasing awareness of the global ecological environment, the use of new eco recyclable fabrics will be more and more extensive.

Corn makes clothes, environmental protection is the highlight.

After greeting and chatting for ten years, he picked up a male POLO white T-shirt from his desk: "look, this is made of corn fiber."

The appearance is not the same as the ordinary T-shirt, and the touch feels slightly "coarse" than cotton clothing. Gao Xiaohua, who has been in the clothing business for decades, is curious: "can corn really wear?"

Shang said that corn can "create" fashionable and beautiful clothes because the starch material is extracted from it. "This is a green and environment-friendly polymer material called polylactic acid.

For many years dealing with clothes, Gao Xiaohua has always had his own interpretation of clothing materials: cotton, wool, linen, silk and man-made fibers have all been coquettish, but they all have limitations. For example, although cotton clothing is comfortable to wear, it is not visually attractive; silk is light and soft, but wrinkles easily; although linen is cool, it has a prickle sensation; though chemical fiber is crisp, it is hard to skin affinity. What to wear in the future is also a problem he has been thinking and urgent to solve.

"The clothes I wear are made of corn." SHANG Jia points to the yellow T-shirt he wears, saying that the biggest feature of this "corn garment" is green environmental protection. "The corn fiber clothing buried in the soil will be degraded in a few months and become a fertilizer for the plants to absorb and utilize. The fertilizer can be converted into the starting material of polylactic acid through photosynthesis after being absorbed by plants," he said. In this process of recycling, emissions have been greatly reduced.

All the plants that contain starch, such as corn and cassava, can extract polylactic acid fibers from them. At present, only the two companies in the United States and Holland can produce polylactic acid fiber raw materials. However, due to the fear of high temperature and hard handle, the fiber has been in a blank state in the field of clothing and home textiles for more than 10 years.
