Classification and characteristics of common luggage fabrics
Sep 19, 2022
The classification and characteristics of common luggage fabrics, including 1680D double strand and single strand Oxford fabrics; Double Jacquard Series; Double color jacquard series; Spring wire lattice series; Filament lattice series; Guchi nylon series; Cation Oxford series, etc; All kinds of weaving: jacquard, twill, square, honeycomb, etc; Various processing types: PU, PVC calendering coating, foaming, flocking, printing, pad dyeing, etc. At present, the author has investigated Shengze, Jiaxing, Changxing and other weaving bases, and learned that the trade of luggage fabrics has obviously warmed up, and the sales volume is also rising, with Oxford cloth the most popular.
Common luggage fabrics
1、 PVC/PU leather
In China, people are used to calling the synthetic leather produced with PVC resin as raw material PVC artificial leather (hereinafter referred to as artificial leather); The artificial leather produced with PU resin as raw material is called PU artificial leather (hereinafter referred to as PU leather); the artificial leather produced with PU resin and non-woven fabric as raw material is called PU synthetic leather (hereinafter referred to as synthetic leather).
2、 Nylon/Oxford
Oxford cloth is a new type of fabric with various functions and wide applications. At present, there are mainly varieties on the market, such as jacket, full elastic, nylon, and teat.
3、 Non-woven fabric
Non woven fabrics can be divided into:
1. Spunlaced non-woven fabric: It sprays high pressure micro water onto one or more layers of fiber mesh, making the fibers intertwine with each other, so that the fiber mesh can be reinforced and has a certain strength.
2. Heat bonded non-woven fabric: it refers to adding fibrous or powdery hot-melt bonding reinforcement materials to the fiber mesh, and then heating, melting, cooling and strengthening the fiber mesh into a cloth.
3. Pulp air laid non-woven fabric: also known as dust-free paper, dry papermaking non-woven fabric. It uses the air flow forming technology to open the wood pulp fiberboard into a single fiber state, and then uses the air flow method to make the fiber agglomerate on the net curtain, and then the fiber net is reinforced into cloth.
4. Wet non-woven fabric: the fiber raw materials placed in the water medium are loosened into single fibers, and at the same time, different fiber raw materials are mixed to make fiber suspension slurry. The suspension slurry is transported to the netting mechanism, and the fibers are netted in the wet state and then consolidated into cloth.
5. Spunbonded non-woven fabric: after the polymer has been extruded and stretched to form continuous filament, the filament is laid into a mesh, and then the mesh is turned into non-woven fabric through self bonding, thermal bonding, chemical bonding or mechanical reinforcement.
6. Melt blown non-woven fabric: its technological process: polymer feeding --- melt extrusion --- fiber formation --- fiber cooling --- mesh forming --- reinforcement and cloth forming.
7. Needle punched non-woven fabric: it is a kind of dry non-woven fabric. Needle punched non-woven fabric uses the puncture effect of the needle to reinforce the fluffy fiber mesh into a cloth.
8. Sewing non-woven fabric: it is a kind of dry non-woven fabric. The sewing method is to use the warp knitting coil structure to reinforce the fiber mesh, yarn layer, non-woven materials (such as plastic sheet, plastic thin metal foil, etc.) or their combination to make non-woven fabric.
4、 Denim/Canvas
Denim is made of pure cotton indigo dyed warp yarn and natural weft yarn, which are interwoven with right twill weave of three up and down. It can be generally divided into light, medium and heavy types. The width of the cloth is mostly between 114 cm and 152 cm.
