1, with good elasticity, can stretch the space by 5-8 times, so spandex is the main material for swimsuits, sportswear, tights, elastic pants and so on. And there will be no strong and obvious oppression after making clothes.

2, feel good, spandex feels soft, smooth and comfortable, and the made clothes feel better after being put on, which fits the body curve.

3, not easy to deform, spandex clothes can recover well no matter how they are worn or stretched, and are not easy to deform.

4, high coloring rate, easy to dye, and not easy to fade after dyeing.

5, good chemical stability, wear resistance, aging resistance, long-term wear is not easy to show old.

Second, shortcomings.

1, poor hygroscopicity, unable to absorb water, once wet, it is difficult to automatically dry.

2, you can't make clothes alone, you often have to cooperate with other fabrics to get good comfort and elasticity.

App application

Spandex can be used in garments that can be stretched to meet comfort requirements. Such as: professional sportswear, fitness clothes and sportswear, diving suits, swimming suits, swimsuits for competitions, basketball suits, bras and suspenders, ski pants, discos, jeans, casual pants, socks, leggings, diapers, tights, belts, underwear, jumpsuits, spandex underwear, suspenders for male ballerinas, protective clothing for surgery and protective clothing for logistics forces. Such as: bra, home decoration, bead pillow.

The proportion of spandex used in ordinary clothes is very small. In North America, it is rarely used in men's wear, but more used in women's wear. Because women's clothing requires close fitting. When in use, a large number of other fibers, such as cotton and polyester blends, are added to minimize the gloss.
