Glass fiber expanding yarn is a high-performance material designed for enhanced thermal insulation, flexibility, and mechanical durability. Engineered from continuous fiberglass filaments with an expandable structure, it provides excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, and environmental stress. This material is widely used in industrial sealing, thermal barriers, fireproof fabrics, and composite reinforcement, ensuring optimal performance in demanding applications requiring heat resistance and structural stability.
Product Overview
Glass fiber expanding yarn is a special fiber made by mixing various raw materials and spinning, offering excellent expansion, softness, and elasticity. During the production process, wool fibers are pretreated, sheared, and blended with other raw materials to ensure uniformity and optimal performance of the expanding yarn. Typically woven and then subjected to post-finishing processes such as dyeing and shearing, expanding yarn forms soft, fluffy, and elastic fabrics, which are widely used in applications requiring specific tactile qualities and softness.
Key Features
- Excellent Expansion: The expansion rate of expanding yarn is typically over 22%, ensuring the fabric’s fluffiness, softness, and elasticity.
- Soft and Elastic: After wet heat treatment, the expanding yarn exhibits good elasticity and softness, ideal for products requiring high tactile sensitivity.
- Uniform Blending: A specific process ensures even mixing of various raw materials, optimizing yarn performance.
- Dyeing Consistency: The uniform blending of raw materials contributes to even dyeing, avoiding color inconsistencies.
- Shrinkage Control: After shrinkage testing, the expansion yarn's shrinkage is controlled within 18%-19.5%, ensuring fabric softness and elasticity.
Applications
- Textile Industry: Primarily used to produce soft, fluffy, and elastic fabrics, suitable for high-quality home textiles, apparel, and other products.
- Automotive and Industrial Sectors: Used to make industrial fabrics with special tactile properties and durability, widely applied in automotive seats, interior decoration, etc.
- Furniture and Household Goods: Suitable for manufacturing comfortable and durable fabrics for home decor and comfort needs.
- Environmental and Medical Fields: Can be used to produce medical supplies and environmentally friendly materials that require elasticity and comfort.
- High-End Fabrics: Widely used in premium fabrics that require high elasticity, fluffiness, and soft tactile sensations.
