01
Empower fiber with technology and design
With the rising temperature, cool functional textiles will enter the best selling period. In recent years, with the continuous progress of science and technology, cool fiber is also constantly upgrading.
Among the cool fibers released by Tongkun · China Fiber Fashion Trend 2024/2025, a profiled antibacterial polyamide 56 fiber was evaluated by experts as challenging the cool feeling limit. Heilongjiang Yipin New Material Co., Ltd. and Aseptic Era Composite New Material (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. have developed such fibers with their own unique technologies.
Cool feeling mainly refers to the "cool feeling at the moment of contact". The definition of the cool feeling property of textiles in the standard is that when the skin contacts with the fabric below its temperature, it causes the rapid loss of heat on the skin surface, the temperature drops instantly, and then reflects the cool feeling to the brain through the temperature sensing nerve endings in the skin. Cool sense fiber is generally made by adding mica, jade and other materials with heat conduction and heat dissipation functions, which are micronized after special processing, and then added into the spinning solution in a certain proportion for spinning.
The cool fiber released this time is an innovative use of aluminum nitride nano powder and modified zinc oxide nano powder. Aluminum nitride is the material with the highest thermal conductivity known at present, which is more conducive to heat transmission. In addition, the raw material used for this product is bio based polyamide. Its unique molecular structure makes the fiber cross section, which is conducive to moisture absorption and quick drying, creating a cool, fast drying, continuous cool, bacteriostatic, green and environmentally friendly "close fitting" polyamide 56 fiber.
Zheng Wenchang, General Manager of New Materials Business Department of Ningxia Yipin Biotechnology Co., Ltd., introduced that Yipin New Materials Co., Ltd. has been working in the field of bio based polyamide fiber for many years. The Qmax value (cooling sensitivity value) of the cool shaped antibacterial polyamide 56 fiber developed this time can reach 0.2-0.3, far exceeding the national standard of 0.15 or more. At present, this product has been widely used in sunscreen clothing and highly recognized by the market. Moreover, the product has good spinnability and dyeability, which solves the pain point of single functionality of similar products in the past. ?
The cool profiled antibacterial polyamide 56 fiber developed in the sterile era, with the brand name of "jelly cool", gives people a cool feeling. Yan Jun, the founder and chairman of the Aseptic Age, said that 48% of the raw materials of jelly cold fiber are derived from biomass materials, which have natural affinity for skin, and also have excellent functions such as cooling, bacteriostasis, and UV resistance. It is a new type of functional fiber that integrates high-performance, multi-function, and high value.
Zhejiang Huilong New Material Co., Ltd.'s cool sense solution dyed polyethylene fiber was also selected for this release.

In this release, in addition to cool functional fiber, multi-functional composite fiber is also very interesting. The ginger animal protein composite modified cellulose fiber developed by Yibin Huimei Fiber New Materials Co., Ltd. has created a precedent for dual bacteriostasis of animals and plants. Huang Jinhong, R&D director of the company, said that curcumin in the product has excellent antibacterial effect, can also regulate the activity of phagocytes, and has a strong inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The NH+in collagen is positively charged and can be adsorbed on the fiber surface to form a polymer film, which plays a role in bacteriostasis and sterilization. It is understood that this product has established cooperation with Luolai Home Textile, Lansiyu Home Textile, Mercury Home Textile and other terminal brands.
Suzhou Jiahai Special Fiber Co., Ltd. has developed a multifunctional polyester fiber with antibacterial, flame retardant, anti-static, anti ultraviolet and other composite functions. Yin Wei, the relevant person in charge of the company, said that the product contains environmentally safe natural ores, and the compatibility between inorganic materials and polymers was solved through in-situ polymerization technology. Next, the company will plan to develop functional fibers that can be recycled to meet a broader range of consumer needs.

Polyamide can also play and has more green value
Among many functional fibers, elastic fibers can give the human body a good sense of contact, playing an irreplaceable role in clothing comfort, bulky warmth and other aspects. "No bullet, no cloth" has almost become the industry consensus. When it comes to elastic fibers, the most familiar ones in the industry are polyurethane elastic fibers, polyolefin elastic fibers and polyester elastic composite fibers. Their use performance and application range are different. Among the elastic fibers released by Tongkun ? China Fiber Fashion Trend 2024/2025, polyamide fibers appear.
