Modal fabric products have the characteristics of poor fabric stiffness because of their good softness and excellent moisture absorption. Now mostly used in the production of underwear. Modal knitted fabrics are mainly used to make underwear. However, the modal has the characteristics of silvery white luster, excellent dyeability, and bright color after dyeing, which is enough to make it suitable for outerwear. Because of this, modal has increasingly become a material for outerwear and its upholstery. In order to improve the shortcoming of poor stiffness of pure modal products, modal can be blended with other fibers, and good results can be achieved. JM/C (50/50) can make up for this shortcoming. Blended fabrics woven with this yarn make the cotton fibers more supple and improve the appearance of the fabric. Modal can also reflect its wearability in the weaving process of woven fabrics, and can also be interwoven with other fiber yarns to form various fabrics. Modal products have broad prospects for development in modern clothing. Modal fibers produced by different companies have slightly different surface characteristics due to different production processes.
Lyocell
Lyocell fiber, commonly known as "Tencel", is made of natural plant fiber. It has many excellent properties of both natural fibers and synthetic fibers. Lyocell is a green fiber. Its raw material is cellulose, which is inexhaustible in nature. There is no chemical reaction in the production process, and the solvent used is non-toxic.
"Lyocell" fiber is a brand-new textile and clothing fabric, which emerged in Europe and the United States in the middle and late 1990s. It not only has the characteristics of comfort, good hand feeling, and easy dyeing that natural fiber cotton has, but also has environmental protection advantages that traditional viscose fiber does not have. In the production process, viscose fiber will release harmful gases such as carbon disulfide and hydrogen sulfide, polluting the environment, so it has been gradually eliminated in developed countries. "Lyocell" fiber is made of pulp formed by mashing renewable bamboo, wood, etc. as raw material. The advanced technology makes its solvent recovery rate as high as 99.7%, which is not only energy-saving, and environmentally friendly, but also sustainable. Clothes made of this fiber not only have natural luster, smooth hand, high strength, and basically no shrinkage, but also have good moisture permeability and air permeability, and the effect of wool-blended fabrics is good.
