Qiingdao University Has Successfully Developed Environmentally Friendly Clothing From The Sea.

The reporter learned from Qiingdao University that the National Key Laboratory of fiber new material and modern textile of Qiingdao University has been independently developed and drawn from the sea.

The alga fiber produced by alginate is a multi environmental protection function with flame retardancy, radiation protection and antibacterial activity. It has broad market prospects.

The researchers used alginate extracted from kelp as raw material to combine the high tension and alginate formation of alginate polymer, and obtained high strength and good seaweed fiber, and achieved independent intellectual property rights in various production processes of alginate fiber.

China consumes 60 million tons of fiber per year. On the one hand, it is derived from the natural and regenerated fibers such as cotton, linen, wool and silk that occupy the land. On the other hand, it is synthetic fiber derived from petroleum.

With the development of economy and population growth, the acquisition of fiber is more and more restricted by land and oil resources.

At the same time, China is the world's largest seaweed breeding country, and seaweed chemical products are very rich.

Alginate fiber, which is made from alginate, has opened up a vast space for the deep processing of seaweed industry, and has also expanded the field of fiber extraction from China to the ocean.

It is understood that alginate fiber fabrics will have broad application prospects in high-grade health care clothing, children's toys, fire protection, medical treatment, environmental protection and other fields.
