UV-protective polyester filament that uses proprietary fine particle kneading and core-sheath spinning technologies to highly suppress the transmission of ultraviolet rays.
Compared to ordinary full-dull yarns, a higher UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) can be obtained with the same fabric weight.
It also suppresses the transmission of infrared rays and provides a high heat shielding effect.
Features
Unique fine particle kneading technology
A large amount of special ceramics is kneaded into the core of the core-sheath structure.
Ultraviolet shielding performance
Compared to ordinary full-dull yarns, UV-protective filament has superior UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) and higher UV shielding performance.
UPF/UV protection factor
| sample | basis weight (g/㎡) | UPF | UV Protection Classification | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| UV-protective filament | 105 | 30 | Very Good | |||
| General full-dull yarn | 105 | 20 | Good | |||

Opacity performance
Compared to ordinary polyester yarns, UV-protective filament exhibits particularly high anti-transparency performance when wet.
