Regarding the difference between filaments and staple fibers, peers who may have been in the textile industry for a long time will know more about it, but for the newcomers who are new to the industry, they are somewhat confused. In fact, I don't know much about it at the beginning, but I just remember that fabrics made from filaments are shiny and smooth, similar to nylon fabrics; staple fibers are used to blend with other fibers such as cotton. However, the gap is more than this.


The difference between polyester yarn and polyester staple fiber:


Polyester staple fiber cotton staple fiber and wool type.


Cotton type is mostly used for spinning, such as wool, weaving, etc.; Polyester filament can be generally divided into POY (pre-oriented silk) FDY (all-drawing wire) DTY (low-elastic wire) and other three categories.


POY is mainly used in post-processing production such as production of DTY, DT, ATY, can also be directly applied to the silk textile industry;


FDY is mainly used in clothing, textile industry;


DTY is an ideal raw material for knitting (weft knitting, warp knitting) or woven processing. It is suitable for making apparel fabrics (such as suits and shirts), beddings (such as quilts, bedspreads, mosquito nets) and decorative items (such as curtain fabrics and sofa fabrics). , wall coverings, automotive interior fabrics, etc.)


I believe that through the above introduction, we can understand the biggest difference between polyester staple fiber and yarn.
