What is wood pulp fiber?
Wood pulp fiber is different from the plant fiber we usually mention. Its main raw material is wood pulp, and the original fiber Therefore, it is classified as secondary fiber. Wood pulp fiber can be divided into two categories: softwood pulp fiber and hardwood pulp fiber according to the type of tree.
The length and width of softwood fibers are 2.5-4 mm and 41-55 mm respectively. Between microns, while the length of hardwood fiber is about 1mm, the width will be shorter, which is 1/60 of the length. The tight tissue structure is the characteristic of softwood fiber. Its slurry quality is particularly good and the sugar content is low. Therefore, the fiber will not absorb water and swell and will not be difficult to beat. The tissue of hardwood is denser than that of softwood, but it has a lower sugar content. Contained in miscellaneous cells, its polypentose content is high and the fiber is easy to beat.
Advantages of wood pulp fiber cloth ：
1. The production and finishing of wood pulp fibers are all physical processes, so no chemicals harmful to the human body or the air will be produced. Pulp fiber fabric has moisture absorption and breathability comparable to pure cotton, and the fiber itself will not irritate the skin. The fabric has higher strength and is more durable.
2. Wood pulp fiber has particularly good anti-wrinkle and anti-pilling properties, and the fabric is not prone to shrinkage after washing. .
3. The surface of wood pulp fiber fabric is smooth and soft to the touch, especially similar to silk fabric.
4. Wood pulp fiber performs particularly well in color-fixing printing and dyeing, and generally does not fade after coloring.
5. Wood pulp fiber has very good resistance to insects and mildew, which is lacking in cotton fiber.
Disadvantages of wood pulp fiber fabrics ：
Because it is difficult to extract wood pulp fibers, the cost of fabrics will also increase, and the price of natural garments will also increase. It will be on the high side.
