What is coated textiles
Coated fabric is a kind of textile, and the coated bonding material forms a single layer or multiple layers in situ on one side of the fabric or both sides. It consists of two or more layers of materials, at least one of which is a textile and the other is a fully continuous polymer coating.
Manufacturing process can be divided into:
1.Direct coating
Direct coating is to flatten the fabric to form a uniform plane, and then pass under a stationary scraper. Direct coating is mainly used to process fabrics such as nylon or polyester filament yarn.
2.Transfer coating
The transfer coating is to coat the polymer on the release paper to form a film, and then press the film on the fabric. In this method, the polymer does not contact the fabric before forming a real film.
Transfer coating is mainly used for knitted fabrics. Compared with woven fabrics, knitted fabrics have a looser structure and are easier to stretch, and direct coating technology cannot be used. Unlike direct coating, transfer coating is often used as the surface of the material.
3.Solidified coating
Solidified coating, also known as wet coating, is to dissolve polyurethane in a solvent, and then remove the solvent under certain conditions to form a solidified body. This material is very soft and has a porous structure, which is the basis for imitating leather.
4.Foam coating
Foam coating is to add a foaming agent (usually a surfactant) to a higher concentration of finishing working fluid and then use foaming equipment to mix it with air. A processing technology that forms a certain quality of foam, and then uniformly applies the foam to the surface of the fabric through a foam applicator. The surface of the fabric is coated with a foam adhesive layer, and the coating film layer is used to produce flame retardant, antifouling and other properties, and the fabric has a unique style, feel and appearance, and has good air permeability and low cost.
Ruico produces flame retardant for textiles coating, suitable for foam coating, direct coating, dip and roll, knife over roll etc. We always provide good support to fabric manufacturers. Contact us if needed.
