Study on the Structure and Performances of Kapok Textiles

Abstract:

Kapok fiber has many excellent Performances. the surface and cross section of the kapok fiber were observed. These performances of the distribution of length and fineness, moisture regain, acid and alkali properties, and dyeing property were tested and compared for the kapok fiber, colored cotton fiber and white cotton fiber. The fabrics of same weave structure paramater were developed and the warmth retention property wewe tested. The results show that the surface of the kapok fiber is smooth，Cross section of the kapok fiber is round with hollow-structure. The length and fineness of the kapok fiber was lower than white cotton fiber and colored cotton fiber. The hygroscopicity and moisture guide properties of the kapok fiber was better than white cotton fiber and colored cotton fiber, the dyeing property of the kapok fiber was worse than white cotton fiber, the kapok fiber is alkali-resistance and non acid-resistant. The fabrics of the kapok fiber has better warmth retention property.
