Let’s first take a look at the characteristics of vinylon fabrics. In addition to the hygroscopicity mentioned above, vinylon also has good chemical stability and good sun resistance. Its strength It will be better than cotton but not as good as other chemical fiber fabrics. However, because vinylon has low thermal conductivity, this type of fabric has strong warmth retention properties.

The vinylon products we generally see, such as towels, bath towels, etc., are not dyed, because vinylon itself has poor dyeability and is prone to wrinkles. The product is heat-resistant but not hot water, so do not soak such products in hot water.

The raw materials for vinylon production are easy to obtain and the acquisition cost is low, so the price of vinylon products is generally not high. The prices of vinylon towels and vinylon tops are very cheap. This is the market competitive advantage of vinylon. But vinylon also has many shortcomings. For example, it is basically inelastic, which is also the reason why vinylon fabric wrinkles.

From the overall performance point of view, vinylon is still slightly inferior to cotton. Cotton fabric is better than vinylon fabric in terms of comfort and warmth. Obviously, the price of cotton fabric on the market is higher than vinylon, and Natural fabrics are generally more skin-friendly than chemical fibers.
