Hemp Fibre - the Crown Jewel of the Ancient Chinese Textile World.

Hemp fibre was the first   textile materia l used by man for clothing, dating back as far as 5,000 years ago. The source of hemp fibre is the hemp plant, which is diverse, and hemp fabrics are also   varied and different .   What hemp plants do you know?   Cannabis sativa Cannabis sativa L. is native to Sikkim, Bhutan, India and Central Asia. Cannabis is a dioecious plant and is usually used for different purposes depending on the differences in its vegetative characteristics. Generally speaking, male cannabis uses its fibres mainly for weaving, making hemp rope, twine, hemp paper, etc. Female cannabis is mainly used to extract its seeds to oil, used for oil or burning lamps for lighting. Cannabis fibres are fine and strong, so in addition to being used directly for weaving, they can also be used as padding for winter clothing.     Boehmeria nivea Boehmeria nivea (L.) Gaudich. is a perennial ramie herb of the genus Urticaceae, and can be harvested three tim...

Features: Polypropylene Rope VS Nylon Rope

图片
Polypropylene  and polyamides (often called nylon) are two common plastics used in the manufacture of end-use parts. Plastics are made from bonded polymers and can be naturally occurring or synthetic. Designers and engineers should understand the key differences between polypropylene and  nylon  to determine which synthetic polymer is best for a given project.   Nylon trimmer line   Structure Although polypropylene and nylon are both synthetic polymers, their chemical structures differ in several important ways. These factors contribute to their differences in quality, properties and use cases. Polypropylene is an addition polymer, which means that it is the result of joining monomers together through a simple addition reaction that produces no by-products. Nylon, on the other hand, is a condensation polymer in which water molecules are expelled as the polyamide monomers are bound together. Nylon and polypropylene are very similar, but due to the differences in ...

Advantages of Using Nylon Ropes

图片
Since the introduction of synthetic fibers to the rope industry in the 1950s, customers have had many different options for rope materials. Each rope fiber is unique in its characteristics and has its own advantages and disadvantages. Today, we would like to talk about the advantages of using   nylon rope. Advantages of nylon Strength If you are looking for high strength ropes, nylon ropes are a good choice. Nylon is the strongest of the most common rope fibers, much stronger than polypropylene, polyethylene or organic fibers, and barely beating out polyester.   Elasticity Nylon has a high tensile coefficient, which provides a degree of elasticity that comes in handy in some applications. Nylon rope has a stretch at break of about 15-28%, which means that at the high end it is almost twice as strong as polyester. Nylon rope is well suited for shock absorption and dynamic load applications because of its elasticity, making it a clear choice for mooring and towing activities as ...
