What are environmentally friendly fibers?
Chitin fibers were originally H. Braconnot, Professor, obtained from mushrooms fiber, and this fiber from mushroom is called Fungine, which means fungal cellulose. In 1823, another French scientist, A. Odier, isolated the same substance from the wings of crustacean insects. He thought the substance was a new type of cellulose, which was named Chitin. In 1843, A. Payen of France found that Chitin was not quite the same as cellulose. In the same year, the French J. L. Lassaigne found that Chitin contained nitrogen, which proved that Chitin is not cellulose, but a new, fibrous compound.
Bamboo fiber is a kind of cellulose fiber extracted from natural bamboo. It is the fifth natural fiber after cotton, hemp, wool and silk. Bamboo fiber has the characteristics of good air permeability, instant water absorption, strong abrasion resistance and good dyeing property. Meanwhile, it has the functions of natural antibacterial, bacteriostasis, mite removal, deodorization and anti ultraviolet. Experts point out that bamboo fiber is a kind of natural environmental friendly green fiber in the true sense. Bamboo fiber textiles are popular with consumers because they completely replicate the inherent characteristics of bamboo fibers, and their demand for products increases year by year.
Flax is one of the earliest natural fibers used in human life. It is more than ten thousand years old. Flax fiber is a rare natural fiber, accounting for only 1.5% of the total natural fiber. Because of its natural, ancient, rare, natural and noble color, it is known as "fiber Queen in natural fiber"".
Acetic acid fiber, also known as cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate. Cellulose acetate was synthesized from acetic acid and cellulose by esterification.
