How Bamboo Charcoal Fiber Boosts Fabric Function
Date: 2025/4/7 By: Winnie
Bamboo charcoal fiber takes moso bamboo as raw material, through the pure oxygen high temperature and nitrogen barrier delayed calcination of new technology and new technology production, its unique fiber structure design, with moisture absorption and breathable, anti-bacterial, and antibacterial, warm in winter and cool in summer, green environmental protection and other characteristics.
Bamboo charcoal is known as the “black diamond” and is internationally recognized as “the new guardian of environmental protection in the 21st century.” Bamboo charcoal is made by melting and spinning modified polyester slices that tend to form a honeycomb microporous structure. Afterward, the microporosity of the bamboo charcoal is further refined and enhanced. The biggest difference among these fibers is that each bamboo charcoal fiber has a honeycomb microporous structure that runs inside and outside. This unique fiber structure is designed to bring out 100% of the functions that bamboo charcoal has to offer. The birth of this all-in-one bamboo charcoal fiber is a revolutionary innovation in textile multifunctional raw materials.
The Production of Bamboo Charcoal Fiber
Bamboo charcoal is another brand new environmentally friendly material with excellent performance developed from bamboo resources. Bamboo charcoal is formed after the bamboo is dried and carbonized at a high temperature of 800 degrees. Bamboo charcoal has strong adsorption and decomposition ability, moisture absorption and drying, anti-odor and antibacterial, and has negative ion penetration and other properties. Bamboo charcoal fiber the use of nanotechnology, bamboo charcoal micronization, and then nanoscale bamboo charcoal micro powder through high-tech technology processing, and then use the traditional chemical fiber preparation process, can be spun molding, the preparation of qualified bamboo charcoal fiber.
The Characteristics of bamboo charcoal fiber
Bamboo charcoal fiber has the following characteristics, which can improve the function of textile fabrics.
1. Smooth, Soft and Warm
Bamboo fiber has a unit of fine fineness fine, soft touch; whiteness is good, bright colors; toughness and abrasion resistance has a unique resilience; strong longitudinal and transverse strength, stability and uniformity, good drape; soft and smooth without sticking to the body, softer than cotton, with a unique sense of velvet.
2. Absorbent and Breathable
Bamboo charcoal fiber cross-section is covered with large and small oval-shaped pores, and can instantly absorb and evaporate a large amount of water. The natural cross-section of the highly hollow, called bamboo charcoal fiber for “breathing” fiber. Bamboo charcoal fiber moisture absorption, moisture release, and breathability of the major textile fibers in the first. Warm in winter and cool in summer by the hollow characteristics of bamboo charcoal fiber decision, bamboo charcoal fiber textiles are used in summer and autumn so that people feel particularly cool, and breathable; winter and spring use of fluffy and comfortable and can exclude excess heat and water in the body, do not let a person feel irritable fire.
3. Antibacterial and Antimicrobial
After testing, the same number of bacteria under the microscope, bacteria in cotton, and wood fiber products can be a large number reproduction, while bacteria in bamboo charcoal bamboo fiber fabric after 24 hours is reduced by 94.5%. This result also makes it the choice for bacteria-protective clothing, which is incomparable to other textile materials.
4. Eco-friendly, UV Resistant
Bamboo charcoal fiber is a green material extracted from raw bamboo, which has the natural anti-mite, anti-odor, anti-insect, and negative ion-generating properties of bamboo. Tests have proved that bamboo charcoal fiber fabrics have almost zero transmission rate of ultraviolet rays of 200-400nm, which is the most harmful to the human body.
The Performance of Bamboo Charcoal Fiber
Bamboo charcoal fiber not only has natural and environmental protection characteristics, but also has a variety of functions such as far-infrared rays, negative ions, heat storage, and warmth, and these functions are permanent.
1. Ultra-Strong Adsorption
The adsorption capacity of bamboo charcoal is more than 5 times that of charcoal, and it can play the role of absorption, decomposition of odor, and deodorization for formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, ammonia, and other harmful substances and dust. For example, the ammonia removal rate of ordinary viscose fiber is only 17.4%, while the ammonia removal rate of bamboo charcoal viscose fiber reaches 54%.
2. Thermal Storage and Warmth
Far-infrared emissivity is up to 0.87, which can store heat and keep warm, and the speed of temperature rise is faster than ordinary cotton fabrics. Moisturizing, to achieve the effect of dehumidification and drying: high balance of moisture return rate and water retention rate, endowed with the bamboo charcoal fiber’s ability to regulate moisture.
3. High Concentration of Negative Ions
Usually, the concentration of negative ions in urban parks is 1,000-2,000 ions/cm3, and the concentration of negative ions in suburban fields is 5,000-50,000 ions/cm3. Bamboo charcoal fiber emits negative ions at a concentration of 6,800 ions/cm3, which is equivalent to the concentration of negative ions in suburban fields, and is therefore good for your health.
4. High Mineral Content
Bamboo charcoal fiber contains potassium, calcium, and other minerals that are beneficial to your health.
Bamboo Charcoal Fiber Application
Bamboo charcoal fiber is very suitable for weaving close-to-wear garments, and its function is permanent and unaffected by the number of times it is washed. Bamboo charcoal fiber fabrics are mainly used in underwear products, jeans, shirts, T-shirts, socks, towels, bedding, and sports and leisure wear, etc. In addition, they can also be used in medical scrubs, bacterial protective clothing, and other medical apparel requiring antibacterial properties. Bamboo charcoal fiber provides a brand-new raw material for textile product development by virtue of its natural, environmentally friendly, and multi-functional characteristics.
