What is Acrylic Yarn
Acrylic yarn is a kind of fiber with dense structure, uniform internal structure and bright dyeing. It is mainly used for clothing. High-grade knitted sweaters made of acrylic filament have many advantages: silk-like feel and luster, light weight, good air permeability and foldability, strong color fastness, uniform dyeing, good qualitativeness, good retention, etc. After further processing and weaving, the yarn has the appearance of pear skin, giving people a refreshing, elegant luster and color, and excellent color fastness and abrasion resistance make the knitted fashion more beautiful. The high-end woven garments made of acrylic filaments have bright colors, strong wool texture, good sag, and bright and dark reflective spots, which are very gorgeous and incomparable to other chemical fiber materials.
Characteristics of acrylic yarn
1. High elasticity and high bulkiness. The elasticity and bulkiness of acrylic fiber are similar to natural wool, and the elasticity is better. The resilience rate can still be maintained at 65% when elongation is 20%. It is fluffy and soft. It is known as artificial wool.
2. Good warmth retention Acrylic fiber has good thermoelasticity (processable bulked yarn), acrylic fiber has a low density, which is smaller than wool, and the fabric has good warmth retention, which is 15% higher than wool.
3. Acrylic fabric is dyed brightly
4. High light fastness Acrylic fabric has excellent light fastness. According to the first of various fiber fabrics, the strength is only reduced by 20% when exposed to the open air for one year. It is suitable for outdoor clothing, swimwear, and children’s clothing. Curtains, curtains, tarpaulins, gun clothing, etc.
