Product type
Viscose is a type of regenerated cellulose fiber made from wood pulp, primarily sourced from beech, pine, or eucalyptus trees. The production process involves dissolving the cellulose in a chemical solution and then extruding it to form fibers. Viscose is known for its silk-like feel, breathability, and ability to absorb moisture, making it a popular choice in the textile industry.
| Fiber type | Regenerated cellulose fiber |
| Common denier | 1.5 to 3.0 |
| Moisture regain | 11% to 13% |
| Tensile strength | 3.5 to 5.0 g/d |
| Elongation at break | 15% to 30% |
When choosing viscose fibers, consider the intended application and required properties such as fiber denier, strength, and moisture absorption. It's essential to specify the desired quality grade and any relevant certifications. Additionally, provide information on the quantity needed for accurate pricing and availability.
