SORONA fiber is derived from glucose from corn, which is fermented by genetically modified bacteria to produce PDO. The PDO is purified by distillation and dehydrated. At this point, pdo appears to be a clear, slightly viscous liquid. Then add appropriate amount of terephthalic acid, after the reaction, SORONA slice obtained.
SORONA fabric has many advantages over ordinary fabrics.
Soft:
Thermal cotton containing SORONA fiber can be made in a variety of sizes, from 40 g/m2 to more than 180 g/m2, and Sorona fiber is particularly soft, can help designers better create a slimmer look for cotton clothing.
Heat retention:
Thermal cotton with Sorona fiber The properties of the Sorona fiber, combined with the special thermal technology of the thermal cotton manufacturer, can achieve excellent heat retention.
Has strong recovery performance:
Sorona's unique molecular structure and crystalline morphology allow stress deformation to occur in the crystalline zone, allowing the fiber to fully recover. Sorona flake can be stretched and shrunk with fabric. Compared with traditional thermal materials, it will not tear under extreme conditions such as stretching and bending. It can be stretched freely, has strong recovery ability, and is not easy to cause wrinkles and deformation of the fabric.
Washable resistance:
Thermal cottons containing SORONA fibers can meet the standards of 3.5 to 4 according to test method AATCC135, according to different drying methods, after 3 rounds of washing.
Breathability and quick drying:
SORONA is a very breathable material because it has very low water absorption. This allows fillings containing Sorona fibres to dry quickly after washing, or in less time, when making garments.
