Linen is one of the earliest natural fibers used by humans, with a history of over 10,000 years. As a rare natural fiber, it accounts for merely 1.5% of the total natural fiber output. Thanks to its natural texture, unique…

Bio-based yarns take renewable biomass as raw materials for fiber spinning. Based on feedstock origins, we split them into three categories: virgin bio-based yarns, regenerated bio-based yarns and synthetic bio-based yarns. First, virgin bio-based yarns adopt natural fibers from plants…

After everyday apparel meets people’s demands for comfort and aesthetics, consumers have gradually raised higher requirements for garment functionality. As one typical functional fiber, anti-UV fiber gains growing market attention. Therefore, this article introduces anti-UV fiber in terms of its…

German researchers recently unveiled a cascade filter made from textile materials, designed to trap microplastics directly from wastewater before these pollutants flow into rivers and oceans. Developed by scientists at Germany’s DITF (German Institute for Textile and Fiber Research Denkendorf),…

What Is Peptide Fiber? Peptide fiber is a new bio-based artificial protein fiber for textiles. First, it is rich in 18 kinds of amino acids and mainly made from bio-based polyvinyl alcohol and collagen. Moreover, the two raw materials are…

1、What Are Staple Fiber & Filament Yarn? You may have come across the terms “staple fiber” and “filament yarn” in fabric guides. To fully tell their differences, we need to start with the basic fiber itself. Staple fibers range in…

Bamboo Pulp Fiber vs Ramie Fiber Bamboo pulp fiber is a new natural fiber developed in recent years. It is made by removing lignin and other impurities from bamboo with extracts of pure natural plants. Moreover, the whole production process…

Solution dyed yarn is made by mixing pigments or dyes into raw materials for coloration. Since color is added directly to the spinning solution, it can be produced in red, blue, black and other colors. Yarn-dyed fabrics may adopt either…

Due to severe plastic pollution around the globe, many countries have raised strict standards for the application of eco‑friendly plastics. Furthermore, even with proper waste management measures for post‑use plastics, a portion of them will still leak into the natural…

Ag+ Silver Ion Functional Yarn Silver fiber embeds silver ions into yarn through nano‑technology and special processing. Metallic silver kills bacteria by disrupting their biological processes. In warm and humid conditions, silver ions show strong biological activity. They easily bond…
