Polyester twisted yarn is polyester yarn made by twisting process, this process can improve the strength and elasticity of yarn. Polyester (polyester fiber) is a synthetic fiber with many excellent physical and chemical properties, such as high strength, high modulus, low water absorption, light resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, etc.
Characteristics of polyester twisted yarn
Polyester twisted yarn is a yarn made by twisting polyester fiber, this process significantly improves the strength and elasticity of the yarn. Polyester itself is a synthetic fiber with many excellent characteristics:
- Weather resistance: Polyester fabric can maintain its performance and maintain its durability even in various weather conditions.
- Waterproofness: Although polyester is not completely waterproof, it has a waterproof coating on its surface, which can effectively extend the time that water enters the fabric.
- Quick drying: Polyester does not absorb water, so it dries faster than other materials, which is an important feature for outdoor activities.
- Tear resistance: Polyester fabric is very tough and not easy to tear, suitable for outdoor use.
The light resistance of polyester twisted yarn is quite good, second only to acrylic, and its light resistance is better than most natural fiber fabrics. The light resistance of polyester is related to its molecular structure. It has a strong absorption band in the 315 nm light wave region, so it can maintain stability for a long time under sunlight and has less strength loss. This means that polyester twisted yarn is suitable for outdoor use, especially for items that need to be exposed to sunlight for a long time, such as awnings, outdoor furniture covers, tents, etc.
Outdoor scene applications
Awnings and parasols
Awnings and parasols are an important part of outdoor life. They need to be able to withstand strong sunlight and changeable weather. Polyester twisted yarn is an ideal material for making awnings and parasols because of its light resistance and weather resistance.
Outdoor furniture
Outdoor furniture needs to withstand wind and rain, and the wear resistance and tear resistance of polyester twisted yarn make it the preferred material for making outdoor furniture fabrics.
Tents
Tents need to be light, durable and easy to set up. The high strength and quick drying of polyester twisted yarn make it an ideal choice for making tents.
Sportswear
Outdoor sportswear needs to be lightweight, breathable and wear-resistant. The quick-drying and wear-resistant properties of polyester twisted yarn make it an ideal material for sportswear.
Gardening supplies
Gardening supplies such as sunshade nets, insect nets, etc. need to be able to withstand bad weather. The weather resistance and light resistance of polyester twisted yarn make it an ideal choice for these supplies.
