Lecture Polyamide

Polyamide

This oil-based synthetic fiber is produced from oil, a finite resource. It is very strong, resists water and tear, and blends well with other fibers.

Polyamide can be engineered to suit specific purposes, such as wicking properties for underwear and active sports, and UV resisance.

Branded Cordura & Keviar fibres have excellent abrasion resistance, durability and high tensile strenghth.

A polyamide is a polymer containing monomers of amides joined by peptide bonds. They can occur both naturally and artificially, examples being proteins, such as wool and silk, and can be made artificially through step-growth polymerization or solid-phase synthesis, examples being nylons, aramids, and sodium poly. Polyamides are commonly used in textiles, automotives, carpet and sportswear due to their extreme durability and strength.



100% polyamide is high-tenacity, durable, with the effect of twill in both face and back sides. This kind of fabric is suitable for sportswear, down-resistant garments and apparel. Fabric printing or coating can be customized. Breathable, anti-moisture if coated bounded or laminated.
