Not to be underestimated - Revealing the properties and characteristics of nylon

2024-09-10

Nylon is a synthetic fiber variety produced industrially, belonging to aliphatic polyamide fibers. Nylon has good performance, high yield, and wide applications. Nylon is corrosion-resistant, not afraid of mold, and not afraid of insect infestation.
The main physical and chemical properties of nylon are as follows:
1. Form - The longitudinal surface of nylon is straight and smooth, with a circular cross-section. Nylon is alkali resistant but not acid resistant. In inorganic acids, the amide bonds on nylon macromolecules will break.
2. Light and heat resistance, etc. - Due to the sensitivity of the end groups of nylon macromolecules to light and heat, nylon turns yellow and becomes brittle. Therefore, nylon has poor light and heat resistance and is not suitable for making outdoor fabrics.
3. Moisture absorption and dyeing properties - Nylon has good moisture absorption among common synthetic fibers, with a moisture regain of about 4-5% under general atmospheric conditions.
4. Stretching and Wear Resistance - Nylon has high strength, large elongation, and excellent elasticity.

Is nylon so versatile? After reading it, I believe it
