"Spandex" is the transliteration of the English word LYCRA. It was successfully researched by Bayer in Germany in 1937 and DuPont began production in 1959. It is a registered trademark of DuPont spandex fiber, which can greatly improve fabrics. The elasticity and extensibility of spandex and the good recovery after stretching are its biggest advantages. Unlike traditional elastic fibers, its stretchability can reach 500% and can be restored to its original shape. In other words, this fiber can be very relaxed The ground is stretched, but it can stick to the surface of the human body after recovery, and has little binding force on the human body. Spandex fiber can be used with any fabric and is called a "friendly" fiber. Its good quality is recognized by its peers. As long as the garments that use Spandex will be hung with a triangle tag, this tag has also become a symbol of high quality.
Spandex is a trade name of INVISTA (formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of DuPont, acquired by Koch Industries for US$4.4 billion in 2004), the world’s largest integrated fiber and polymer company. INVISTA occupies a market monopoly in the spandex field. , Spandex is almost synonymous with all spandex yarns. It completely replaces the traditional elastic elastic cord. Spandex is almost an indispensable element in gym suits and swimming suits with special requirements. It allows you to show your curves and stretch your limbs freely without feeling oppressive. Spandex is not only widely used in daily clothing, but also a pet in the popular kaleidoscope made by fashion designers. Spandex was therefore called a magic fiber by people who were delighted.
Spandex has a wide range of applications and can add extra comfort to all types of ready-to-wear garments, including underwear, customized jackets, suits, skirts, trousers, knitwear, etc. It greatly improves the hand feel, drape and crease recovery ability of the fabric, improves the comfort and fit of various clothes, and makes all kinds of clothes show new vitality.
