一、About PLA Fiber
As a thermoplastic fiber-grade resin, fiber-grade polylactic acid PLA, in pellet form, is used to extrude it into mechanically drawn short fibers using conventional fiber spinning and drawing equipment; it has excellent colorability, mechanical properties and good physical properties, can adapt to a variety of printing methods, used in a variety of occasions.
PLA fiber combines the advantages of natural fibers and chemical synthetic fibers, and at the same time has biodegradable properties. It has good drapability, smoothness, air permeability, natural bacteriostatic properties, weak acidity that reassures the skin, and UV resistance.
（Examples of eSUN PLA Fiber Products）
As the only biodegradable plastic with excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties, PLA fiber can be widely used in clothing, home textiles, medical and hygiene products, etc., and give full play to its green, environmental protection and low-carbon advantages in these application fields.
Today, we will mainly introduce the advantages, characteristics and applications of eSUN PLA fiber in the papermaking direction.
二、Characteristics of PLA fiber wet-laid papermaking applications
1. During the whole production process, no dust and harmful gas are generated, and no waste liquid is discharged;
2. Conducive to resource regeneration and inhibit white pollution;
3.The development and production of polylactic acid fiber wet papermaking is in line with the national industrial policy and in line with the sustainable development plan. It helps to improve overall labor productivity, reduce production costs, and has important economic and social benefits in controlling environmental pollution and rationally utilizing resources.
Note: Products made by wet papermaking process using PLA fiber can be used as air filter paper（The picture comes from the Internet, if there is any infringement, please contact us to delete it）
PLA fiber is a biomass fiber that can save petroleum resources. It can reduce carbon dioxide emissions during the entire life cycle from raw material manufacturing to disposal, and has biodegradable properties, which is in line with the current development trend of green and intelligent manufacturing.
In addition to the application expansion in the papermaking direction, eSUN has also actively deployed the application of PLA fibers in the field of home textiles, such as comforters.
Everyone spends about one-third of their life sleeping, and the quality of home textiles such as quilts and pillows cannot be ignored. The excellent characteristics of PLA fiber determine that its application in the direction of home spinning will have broad prospects and development space. In the near future, eSUN will launch application examples of PLA fibers in the home textile field, so stay tuned!
Finally, eSUN has a stable supply capacity of PLA modified material and PLA fiber, welcome to inquire.
