Presentation Transcript

  1. Acetate!

  2. What is Acetate? • A silk like cellulose fabric with superb drape, comfort, color, lustre and resistance to moths. • Basically, its an acid that almost always is turned into a fabric by combining it with cellulose. • It is also blended with silk, cotton, wool, nylon and other fibres to provide the resultant fabric with wrinkle recovery properties.

  3. Blends Silk Cotton Nylon Wool

  4. How its made! • Fabrication : This fibre is obtained by deconstructing wood or cotton pulp into a purified white cellulose liquid

  5. Acetate Chemical Structure • The molecular formula for the acetate anion is C2H2O2-.

  6. Acetate Physical Properties • Hand: soft, smooth, dry, crisp, resilient • Comfort: breathes, wicks, dries quickly, no static cling • Drape: linings move with the body linings conform to the garment • Color: deep brilliant shades with atmospheric dyeing meet colorfastness requirements • Performance: colorfast to perspiration staining, colorfast to dry cleaning, air and vapor permeable • Tenacity: weak fiber with breaking tenacity of 1.2 to 1.4 g/d; rapidly loses strength when wet; must be dry cleaned • Abrasion: poor resistance • Heat retention: poor thermal retention; no allergenic potential (hypoallergenic)

  7. Why is Acetate so different? • Acetate is different because its uses aren't only for fabrics, but for a film base in photography, as a component in some adhesives, and as a frame material for eyeglasses. • It is also used as a synthetic fiber and in the manufacture of cigarette filters and playing cards.

  8. Orientation • Acetate originally was introduced as early as 1865, this semi-synthetic fibre was developed at the beginning of the 20th century by two young Swiss chemists, Camille Dreyfus and his brother Henri.

  9. Subtypes • Some subtypes of acetate included Different variants exist, including Aceta, Albene, Fortisan, Rhodia and Setilose.
