Blended fabrics, as fabrics that combine the characteristics of multiple fibers, are widely used and popular in the market. However, the complex fiber composition of blended fabrics may lead to unsatisfactory properties such as hand feel, glossiness, and wear resistance. In order to improve the overall quality of blended fabrics, the application of silicone softeners is particularly important.
First, silicone softeners can significantly improve the feel of blended fabrics. Through physical or chemical effects, silicone softeners can form a lubricating film on the fiber surface, reduce the friction coefficient between fibers, and make the fabric feel softer and smoother. This is crucial to improve wearing comfort.
Secondly, silicone softeners can also enhance the wear resistance and elasticity of blended fabrics. The combination of silicone oil molecules and fibers can enhance the toughness of fibers to a certain extent and improve the wear resistance of fabrics. At the same time, it can also make the fabric more elastic and fit the body better when worn.
In addition, silicone softeners also give blended fabrics a variety of additional properties. Such as waterproof, anti-fouling, anti-static, etc., the improvement of these properties makes blended fabrics more widely used and suitable for more scenarios.
It is worth noting that the application of silicone softener also meets the requirements of green environmental protection. It is non-toxic, harmless, easily degradable, and will not cause harm to the environment and human body. While pursuing high quality, it also reflects the sense of responsibility for environmental protection.
In summary, the application of silicone softener in blended fabrics has multiple advantages. It can not only improve the feel, wear resistance and elasticity of the fabric, but also give the fabric a variety of additional properties, while meeting the requirements of green environmental protection. Therefore, in the finishing process of blended fabrics, silicone softener has become an indispensable and important auxiliary agent.
