Processing of Tencel Material

With the development in science and technology we have learned to make items that are environmentally and socially responsible. One of the examples of this is Lyocell, made of wood pulp in an amine oxide solvent system. Lyocell have an economically friendly spinning technology. The solvent used can be recovered by more than 99.5% and can be recycled. Beside this it exhibits unique and desirable properties such as good dry and wet strength, drapeability, lusture, shrink, resistant etc. Fabrics made from Lyocell 'breathe' making them very comfortable to wear. Innovative fibres present new options in fabrics marketing opportunities. All the above factor gave it a higher edge over other fibres. Scientist and technologist are using this fibre to engineer new textile products and study the performance and overall success of this break through process.
