Performance and characteristics of quick-drying towel

Ⅰ. Introduction of quick-drying towel products

Quick drying towels are generally made of 100% polyester fiber. A special weaving process was adopted to make it dry faster.

The origin of quick drying: it is literally translated from English words such as QUICK-DRY or DRY-EASY, and quick drying means that clothes made of this fabric are easier to volatilize water and dry faster than clothes made of wool or cotton under the same external conditions.

Quick-drying principle of fabric:

This is a very professional problem, and the principles adopted by different fabrics are different, including the characteristic principles of using similar shape memory polymers; There is also the principle of using microporous films; There is also the principle of using the difference between the molecular diameter of water droplets and water molecules and air molecules, etc. Here, the principle of using microporous films will be emphatically introduced. Quick-drying fabrics based on the principle of microporous film are very common in the market. The principle of quick drying is to use a layer of film whose pore size is between the maximum diameter of water molecules, air molecules and the minimum diameter of water droplets, and then compound the film with the outer fabric, so the fabric has waterproof and breathable effects. This is similar to the principle of GORE---TEX. The fabric with this principle plays a role in the film with micropores, which not only plays a role in preventing water splashing, but also plays a role in ventilation. Whether using the principle of microporous film or other principles, it is actually a chemical fiber fabric with different fibers.

Ⅱ. The performance of quick-drying towel

What we call a quick dry towel, first of all, has a function of quickly absorbing moisture from the hair. Usually, the quick-drying towel adopts the same technology as orange petals, and the filament is divided into eight petals. This division is to increase the surface area of the fiber, increase the pores of the fabric in the quick-drying towel, and then enhance the absorption of the capillary core, so as to achieve high-efficiency water absorption of the quick-drying towel. A remarkable feature of quick-drying towel is that it absorbs water quickly and dries quickly.

Ⅲ. The common quick-drying towels in the market are mainly microfiber, which is a composite yarn of polyester and nylon. The main features of quick-drying towel are as follows:

1. Easy to clean: When ordinary towels are used, especially natural fiber towels, dust, grease and dirt on the surface of the object to be wiped are directly absorbed into the fiber, and remain in the fiber after use, which is not easy to remove, and even becomes hard and loses elasticity after a long time of use, affecting use. The quick-drying towel absorbs dirt between fibers (not inside fibers), and the fibers have high fineness and density, so it has strong adsorption ability, and it can be cleaned with clean water or a little detergent after use.

2. High water absorption: the best quick drying towel for gym uses orange petal technology to divide the filament into eight petals.

The surface area of fiber is increased, the pores in fabric are increased, and the water absorption effect is enhanced by capillary wicking effect. Quick water absorption and quick drying become the remarkable characteristics of quick-drying towels.

3. Strong detergency: The fineness of microfiber with a diameter of 0.4μm is only 1/10 of that of silk, and its special cross section can capture dust particles as small as several microns more effectively, and the effect of decontamination and oil removal is very obvious.

4. Lint-free: high-strength synthetic filament is not easy to break, and the fiber is not easy to fall off the surface of the towel quickly.

5. Long service life: Because the quick-drying towel has high strength and toughness, its service life is more than four times that of ordinary towels, and it will remain unchanged after repeated washing. At the same time, polymer fibers will not produce protein hydrolysis like cotton fibers, and even if the quick-drying towel is not aired after use, it will not be moldy and rotten, and it has a long service life.

6. No fading: TF-215 and other dyes for superfine fiber materials are used in the dyeing process of sand free quick dry towels, and their indexes of slow dyeing, transfer dyeing, high-temperature dispersibility and decoloration all meet the strict standards for export to the international market, especially the advantages of fast-drying towels that do not fade, so that the quick-drying towels will not bring any trouble of decoloration and pollution when cleaning the surfaces of articles.

7. Disadvantages: However, the quick-drying towel is not particularly good for washing your face. Because the material of the quick-drying towel is commonly used for washing your face, it will damage your skin a little. Because the skin is very delicate after all, the applicability of the quick-drying towel is not suitable for washing your face.
