Waterproof fabric is a new type of fabric and a composite fabric. Among them, waterproof and breathable fabrics have more functional features than ordinary waterproof fabrics, thus meeting higher technical requirements. Waterproof fabrics are very common in our daily lives. They are generally used in coat fabrics with windproof and waterproof capabilities, or in fabrics for backpacks and other items. Specialized outdoor activity clothing has higher requirements for this. Outdoor clothing made of high-grade waterproof fabrics, such as jackets, etc., are really not cheap. How to clean and maintain them to maintain their characteristics?
Waterproof fabric is a new type of textile fabric
Waterproof fabric is a new type of textile fabric. Its composition is made of polymer waterproof and breathable material (PTFE membrane) Made of fabric composite fabric.
The main functions of waterproof and breathable fabrics are: waterproof, moisture-permeable, breathable, insulating, windproof, and warm. In terms of production technology, the technical requirements of waterproof and breathable fabrics are much higher than that of ordinary waterproof fabrics; at the same time, from a quality point of view, waterproof and breathable fabrics also have functional characteristics that other waterproof fabrics do not have. Waterproof and breathable fabrics not only enhance the air-tightness and water-tightness of the fabric, but also have unique breathable properties that can quickly discharge water vapor inside the structure, avoid mold breeding in the structure, and keep the human body always dry. It perfectly solves the problem of breathability, windproof, waterproof, It is a new type of fabric that is healthy and environmentally friendly.
True waterproof fabrics can withstand water seepage pressure and do not seep water even if they are in a humid climate environment for a long time. . For example, if you walk outdoors in windy and rainy conditions for a long time, or kneel or sit on wet ground, there will be no water leakage.
How to wash clothes made of waterproof fabrics
All E-PTFE membrane clothes can be machine washed. There is no permanent loss of waterproof performance after washing, and the DWR water-repellent function on the surface is lost and can be easily repaired.
Main notes:
1. You need to zip up all the zippers, fasten the buttons, fasten the Velcro, and restore and stretch the windcord on the hat – otherwise Will cause fabric distortion.
2. Do not add softener – softener may cause the separation between the adhesive strip, the fitting film and the lining, and the clothes will be scrapped. Even if it is not so serious, the bubbles will The occurrence is inevitable.
3. There is no need to use hot or warm water – jackets are afraid of high temperatures.
4. Usually the roller is better than the pulsator, causing less wear and entanglement on the clothes, but it is not necessary.
5. Do not spin dry. The waterproof fabric lining of the jacket itself is quick-drying and does not absorb a lot of water. Hanging it to dry does not take much effort. Do not use strong centrifugal force to damage it. .
6. If you are not sure whether the laundry detergent used contains softener (most do), please use washing powder, detergent and other substances for washing.
