    R&D background

    01.
    R&D background

    Of course, "SOLOTEX ECO-Hybrid" was not only born for Teijin's goals, but also because in recent years, the clothing market has increasingly demanded fabrics that are soft, ductile, and more environmentally friendly


    .


    Based on this premise, the market demand for Teijin's original high-stretch fiber product "SOLOTEX®" is also increasing


    .


    However, the side-by-side composite fibers of PTT and recycled PET used in "SOLOTEX®" have the problem of the change of the crimp structure and the slight deficiency in environmental protection, making it still not perfect


    .


    Therefore, on the one hand, based on the idea of ​​solving the problem of the change of the curl structure and increasing the environmental protection, the accumulated polymer pasting technology has been improved, and the "SOLOTEX ECO- Hybrid" came into being


    .


    On the other hand, based on the idea of ​​super environmental protection
