What are the advantages and functions of nylon?

Definition: Nylon is the Chinese name of synthetic fiber nylon, the translation name is also called "nylon", "nylon", the scientific name is polyamide fibre, that is, polyamide fiber.
Properties: High surface hardness, tensile strength, impact resistance, fatigue resistance, and folding resistance. Resistant to chemicals and oil corrosion. Stress crack resistant. Easy to print, easy to dye, excellent electrical properties.
Disadvantages: poor dimensional accuracy, thermal expansion and water absorption have a great influence on its size; alkali resistance, strong acid resistance, strong oxidant resistance, cannot be used as acid-resistant materials, and cannot be exposed to too many acidic substances. Poor light resistance and poor pollution resistance.



Advantages: strong, good abrasion resistance, ranking first among all fibers. Its abrasion resistance is 10 times that of cotton fibers, 10 times that of dry viscose fibers and 140 times that of wet fibers. Therefore, its durability is excellent.
Uses: It can be used to make sweaters, nylon yarns, nylon belts, nylon bags, nylon films, which are some grades of brushed and extruded films. There are also injection-molded structural parts used in automobiles, temperature-resistant parts, extruded grade nylon tubes, and more. Because nylon has high strength and abrasion resistance, it is the most suitable for making socks. It turns out that the cotton socks that people wear are not durable due to their low strength and poor abrasion resistance. So in the 1930s, mending socks was a regular housework for mothers. The stockings made of nylon filament have good elasticity and high transparency. Later, in order to improve the wearing comfort, the socks are woven with curled nylon elastic silk, which can be stretched freely. Since the moisture absorption rate of nylon is between 3.5% and 5%, consumers always feel that the comfort is slightly insufficient after long-term wear comparison. Nylon and cotton interwoven products on the market are designed to improve this deficiency.
