The difference between viscose, modal and lyocell


1 Fiber characteristics


Viscose fiber


It has good hygroscopicity and meets the physiological requirements of human skin. The fabric is soft, smooth, and has good air permeability. It is not easy to generate static electricity, has UV protection, is comfortable to wear, and is easy to dye. spinning performance. The wet modulus is low, the shrinkage rate is high and it is easy to deform.


Modal fiber


Soft touch, smooth, bright color, good color fastness, especially smooth fabric hand, bright cloth surface, better drape than existing cotton, polyester, viscose fiber, with the strength and toughness of synthetic fiber, with silk The same luster and hand feel, the fabric has wrinkle resistance and easy ironing, good water absorption and air permeability, but the fabric has poor stiffness.


Lyocell fiber


It has a variety of excellent properties of natural fibers and synthetic fibers, natural luster, smooth hand feeling, high strength, basically no shrinkage, and good moisture permeability, good air permeability, soft, comfortable, smooth and cool, good drape, durable and durable.


2 Scope of application


Viscose fiber


Short fibers can be spun purely or blended with other textile fibers, suitable for making underwear, outerwear and various decorative items. Filament fabrics are light in texture and can be used for quilt cover and decorative fabrics in addition to being suitable for clothing.


Modal fiber


Modal knitted fabrics are mainly used to make underwear, but also used in sportswear, casual wear, shirts, advanced ready-to-wear fabrics, etc. Blending with other fibers can improve the poor stiffness of pure modal products


Lyocell fiber


Covering all fields of textile, whether it is cotton, wool, silk, hemp products, or knitting or weaving, it can produce high-quality high-end products
