 Each filament contains two polymer
types.
The different polymers run separately along the
length of the filament.
Virtually any thermoplastic polymer can be incorporated
into the design. Common
 choices
include:
Nylon 6
PET
Copolyesters
Polypropylene
Random Copolymers
Thermoplastic Rubbers
Polyethylene (HDPE, LLDPE, LDPE)
Compounded Products
Design of cross-sections and choice of polymers
allow tailoring of yarn and fabric
properties for demanding applications.
Cross-section designs include:
Concentric or Eccentric Sheath-Core
Side-by-Side
Hollow Sheath-Core
Hollow Side-by-Side
Keyhole
Tipped Trilobal
Splittable Sections for Microdenier
Yarn deniers from 20 to 1500
Filament deniers from <1 to >50
