Bamboo fiber underwear is a kind of functional fabric underwear that similar with hand feeling of cotton fabric underwear. Its price is only slightly higher than pure cotton undergarments, but most of the characteristics are better than purified cotton.
Therefore, more and more bamboo seamless underwear manufacturers began to use bamboo fiber as a raw material to produce underwear and other underclothes.
Compared with the fiber made of cotton or wood, the bamboo fiber made of bamboo has good air permeability, better dyeing and drape, and it can make the woven clothes feel soft, wear-resistant, shiny and bright, with good spinnability, and has really antibacterial and deodorant properties.
Although bamboo has a slightly lower content of alpha cellulose than wood, it is rich in resources and grows rapidly. Bamboo is a kind of fast-growing and high-yield fibrous raw material which grows widely and can be cut down in 4-5 years after planting. The utilization of bamboo to produce fiber pulp alleviates the contradiction between supply and demand of plant fiber raw materials and is beneficial to the comprehensive protection of forest resources.
In the development of bamboo pulp fiber, the bamboo pulp fiber with a content of about 35% of cellulose can be raised to over 93% by artificial catalysis, so as to meet the requirements of fiber production. In the raw material extraction and production manufacturing process, all the implementation of green production process, so bamboo fiber is environmentally friendly type of green fiber.
Benefits of bamboo fiber material:
1, Anti-microbial
Bamboo contains bamboo quinone with strong antibacterial properties, it has no moth, no decay, no need to use any pesticides in the process of growth. During the process of bamboo fiber production, factories use high-tech processing so that the antibacterial material always combined in cellulose macromolecules, and the antibacterial material is always not destroyed. Therefore, even after repeated washing, bamboo fiber fabric will not lose the antibacterial effect under the sun.
The natural antibacterial property makes bamboo fiber will not cause any allergy or adverse reaction to the skin in the application of clothing making, which is very different from other fibers that need to add antibacterial agent in the later dyeing or packaging process to produce a temporary antibacterial effect.
2, Ultraviolet-proof
According to the research of Shanghai institute of physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), the ultraviolet transmittance of bamboo fiber fabric to 200~400nm is almost “0”. Therefore, it can be seen that natural bamboo fiber fabric has a good anti-ultraviolet effect and can make human body less damaged by UV.
3, Biodegradable
Natural bamboo fibers are stable at normal temperatures. But under certain conditions, it can be broken down into carbon dioxide and water. The decomposition methods are:
1)Waste disposal: Cellulose burns to produce carbon dioxide and water, no pollution to the environment.
2) It degrades when buried in soil: Microbial nutrients in the soil activate the soil, enhance soil strength, and degrade after 8-10 months.
3) Degradation in activated sludge: Mainly cellulose decomposition through the presence of a large number of bacteria.
Bamboo fiber underwear features
The knitted fabrics and seamless underwear made from natural bamboo pulp fibers are different from cotton and wood cellulose fibers.
1, Good wear resistance, high moisture absorption, quick drying, high air permeability and drape.
2, Greasy plump hand-feeling, soft like silk, mildew-proof moth-proofing antibacterial, wearing cool and comfortable, have the effect of beauty and skin care.
3, Its dyeing performance is good, luster bright, and has a better natural antibacterial effect and environmental protection, comply with the modern pursuit of health and comfort trend.
Especially for the blended yarns made with bamboo fiber and other kinds of fiber for a specific proportion, it not only can reflect the performance of other fibers but also give full play to the characteristics of bamboo fiber, knitting fabric to bring new characteristics. Pure and blended yarn (blended with Tencel, Modal, Sweated Dacron, Anoxic Dacron, Corn Fiber, Cotton, Acrylic Fiber and other fibers in different types and different ratios) is the preferred fabric for knit close-fitting textiles and undergarments.
Disadvantage of bamboo fiber undergarments: Not resistant to acid and alkali
In cellulose macromolecules, the glucosinolates, which connect the basic links, are unstable when exposed to acid. With the structural characteristics of natural bamboo fiber, the stability of inorganic acid is smaller than that of viscose fiber.
In the same condition, the permeability of alkali to bamboo fiber is greater than that of common viscose fiber. Therefore, although the crystallinity of bamboo fiber is higher than that of ordinary viscose fiber, its alkaline resistance is poor due to the characteristics of porous glands.
Tag service of bamboo fiber
In order to protect their rights and ensure the steady development of their products in the market, the bamboo fiber manufacturers inspect the readymade garments produced by the manufacturers who use their products. After passing the inspection, they will provide tag service according to the amount of usage.
