In the textile world, warp knitting fabric has become an indispensable part of the textile industry with its unique structure and wide application fields. This fabric not only integrates the wisdom of modern technology, but also carries the essence of traditional weaving skills. With its unique charm and practicality, it shines in many fields such as clothing, home decoration and industrial textiles.
Warp knitting fabric is a knitted fabric formed by one or several groups of parallel yarns that are looped and connected to each other along the warp direction of the fabric. This weaving method gives warp knitting fabrics good transverse elasticity and extensibility, while maintaining the stability of longitudinal dimensions. Soft texture, low shedding and good breathability make warp knitting fabrics comfortable and close-fitting when worn, making them the first choice of many consumers.
In terms of yarn selection, warp knitting fabrics also show their diversity. Chemical fiber filaments, such as polyester, nylon, vinylon, polypropylene, etc., have become the main raw materials for warp knitting fabrics because of their high strength and good wear resistance. The thread density ranges from 2tex to 800tex, meeting the needs of different thicknesses and textures.
Through the weft insertion technology, warp knitted fabrics can also cleverly integrate special yarns, such as highly elastic spandex yarns and high-strength glass fibers, to change their performance and meet more diversified application needs. The use of this technology allows warp knitted fabrics to increase elasticity, wear resistance or strength while maintaining their original softness and breathability, providing more possibilities for clothing design and industrial applications.
Warp knitted fabrics are divided into single-sided and double-sided structures. Both sides of double-sided warp knitted fabrics show the loop dry, and some double-sided warp knitted fabrics can be cut into two single-sided velvet fabrics along the middle. This structure makes the fabric achieve a perfect balance between warmth retention and breathability. Single-sided warp knitted fabrics show the loop dry on one side and the extension line on the other side. This structure makes the fabric fit the body curve better when worn, showing a good shaping effect.
In terms of pattern and texture, warp knitted fabrics also show their rich changes. Ordinary warp knitted fabrics use 2 to 4 groups of yarns, woven in chain weave, plain weave, satin weave or diagonal weave to form simple and practical fabrics. Fancy warp knitted fabrics, on the other hand, use complex weaving techniques and yarn combinations to create a variety of textures and patterns such as mesh fabrics, longitudinal embroidery fabrics, pleated fabrics, single-sided terry fabrics, double-sided terry fabrics, plush fabrics, etc., to meet the needs of different occasions and styles.
In terms of application areas, the performance of warp knitted fabrics is also remarkable. Warp knitted fabrics with good dimensional stability can be used as outerwear, thin and patterned warp knitted fabrics can be used as underwear, and warp knitted fabrics lined with spandex can be used as tights such as swimsuits. Double needle bed warp knitted fabrics can be made into shaped seamless socks, terry warp knitted fabrics can be made into towel shirts and bath towels, and partially weft-lined warp knitted fabrics can be made into lace, curtains, tablecloths and furniture fabrics. In addition, warp knitted fabrics are also widely used in car seat cushions, medical elastic bandages, high-strength industrial fabrics and other fields, demonstrating their strong practicality and adaptability.
