Why is PP yarn suitable for making sportswear?
PP yarn is suitable for making sportswear mainly because it has the following characteristics:
Quick-drying property:PP yarn has low moisture absorption and can quickly transfer sweat from the skin surface to the outer layer of the fabric, accelerating water evaporation and keeping the wearer dry. During exercise, the human body sweats profusely. The quick-drying property of PP yarn can prevent athletes from experiencing discomfort caused by sweat soaking their clothes and reduce the risk of catching a cold.
Breathability: PP yarn has excellent breathability, allowing air to flow freely among the fabric fibers. When exercising, the human body generates heat. Good breathability helps dissipate heat, maintains the body's thermal balance, makes the wearer feel comfortable, and does not affect exercise performance due to stuffiness.
Lightweight and comfortable: PP yarn has a low density and is light in weight. The sportswear made from it will not impose excessive burden on the athlete when worn, allowing them to feel more relaxed and at ease during exercise. It is especially suitable for long-duration and high-intensity sports.
Strength and wear resistance: PP yarn is of high strength and wear resistance. Sportswear is prone to friction and stretching during daily wear and exercise. Clothing made of PP yarn can withstand these external forces, is not easy to break, and extends the service life of the clothing. Even after multiple wears and washes, it can still maintain good performance and appearance.
Anti-wrinkle property: PP yarn has good elastic recovery performance and is not prone to wrinkling. Sportswear is easy to remain smooth after wearing and washing, does not require frequent ironing, is convenient for daily maintenance by athletes, and can also keep the clothing in good appearance all the time.
