The fabrics of handbags and bags that we commonly see are different from polyester and nylon.

1. Polyester --- polyester fiber

Also known as POLYESTER, it is characterized by good air permeability and moisture removal. It also has strong anti-acid and alkali resistance and anti-ultraviolet ability. Generally, the fabrics with multiples of 75D are polyester, such as 75D, 150D, 300D, 600D, 1200D, 1800D are polyester, the appearance of the fabric is darker and rougher than nylon.

2. Nylon --- Nylon

Also known as Nylon, polyamide fiber. The advantages are high strength, high wear resistance, high chemical resistance and good resistance to deformation and aging.

The disadvantage is that it feels hard. The more famous ones are PERTEX and CORDURA. Generally, the fabric with a multiple of 70D is nylon, such as 70D, 210D, 420D, 840D, and 1680D, which are all nylon materials. The gloss of the fabric is brighter and the hand feel is smoother. Generally speaking, nylon oxford cloth is used for bags. The simplest difference between nylon and polyester is the burning method! Polyester emits very strong black smoke, while nylon emits white smoke.

Also, look at the residue after burning, the polyester will be broken when pinched, and the nylon will become plastic! The price of nylon is twice that of polyester.

Nylon: Near the flame, it quickly curls and melts into a white gelatinous shape. It melts and drips and foams in the flame. There is no flame when burning. It is difficult to continue to burn when it leaves the flame. .

Polyester: It is easy to ignite, and it melts near the flame. When burning, it melts and emits black smoke, showing a yellow flame and giving off a fragrant smell. After burning, the ashes are black-brown hard lumps, which can be broken with fingers.

In addition, the hand feel will be different. Polyester feels rougher, and nylon feels smoother. In addition, you can use your fingernails to scrape. After the nails are scraped, the obvious traces are nylon, and the less obvious traces are nylon, but this method is not as intuitive and easy to understand as the first method.
