In the textile industry, blending technology has become an important means to improve fabric performance and enrich product categories. Polyester yarn, also known as polyester yarn, has become an indispensable component in blends due to its excellent wrinkle resistance, abrasion resistance and good dimensional stability.
1. Blending of Polyester Yarn and natural fibers
Blended polyester yarn and cotton (polyester-cotton blend)
Polyester-cotton blend combines the high strength and wrinkle resistance of polyester with the moisture absorption, breathability, skin-friendly comfort and other advantages of cotton fiber. By adjusting the ratio of polyester to cotton, blended fabrics can be produced to meet different needs. For example, a blended fabric of 65% polyester and 35% cotton not only maintains the wear resistance and wrinkle resistance of polyester, but also increases the softness and breathability of the fabric. It is widely used in daily clothing such as shirts and T-shirts.
Blending of Polyester Yarn and linen (polyester and linen blending)
Flax fiber is famous for its moisture absorption, heat dissipation, health care and antibacterial properties. However, linen fabric is easy to wrinkle and difficult to care for. After blending with Polyester Yarn, the wrinkle resistance of polyester can be used to improve the wrinkle-prone shortcomings of linen fabrics while retaining the moisture absorption and breathability properties of linen. Polyester and linen blended fabrics are particularly suitable for summer clothing. They are cool and easy to care for, making them the first choice for high-end inner and outer clothing fabrics.
Blending of Polyester Yarn and wool (wool-polyester blend)
Wool blends are popular for wool's natural warmth and softness, but wool fabrics are prone to pilling and have poor abrasion resistance. After adding Polyester Yarn, the blended fabric not only improves the wear resistance and wrinkle resistance, but also maintains the warmth and feel of wool. Wool-polyester blended fabrics are widely used in clothing and home textile products in autumn and winter.
2. Blending of Polyester Yarn with other chemical fibers
Blending of Polyester Yarn and Viscose Fiber
Viscose fiber has the characteristics of smoothness, coolness and good breathability, but its wear resistance and wrinkle resistance are poor. After blending with Polyester Yarn, the wear resistance and wrinkle resistance of the fabric can be significantly improved while retaining the comfortable feel of viscose fiber. This blend is suitable for summer clothing and homewares.
Blending of Polyester Yarn and Nylon
Nylon is known for its high strength and wear resistance, but it has poor hygroscopicity. After blending with Polyester Yarn, it can complement each other's advantages and improve the overall performance of the fabric. The addition of nylon makes the blended fabric more durable and suitable for outdoor sports equipment, work clothes and other occasions that require high wear resistance.
Polyester yarn and spandex blend (elastic fabric)
Spandex is a highly elastic fiber that can be blended with Polyester Yarn to produce fabrics with good elasticity. This kind of fabric is widely used in tights, sportswear and other fields. It can not only meet the comfort of wearing, but also show the beauty of the body lines.
3. Summary of blending effects and advantages
Complementary performance: The blending of different fibers can achieve complementary performance. For example, the wrinkle resistance of polyester is combined with the hygroscopicity of linen and the warmth retention of wool to improve the overall performance of the fabric.
Expanding applications: Blending technology has broadened the application fields of fabrics, made textile products more diversified, and met the needs of different consumers.
Reduce costs: Through blending technology, production costs can be reduced to a certain extent and the cost performance of products can be improved.
Improve quality: Reasonable blending ratio and technology can further improve the quality and grade of the fabric while maintaining its original advantages.
