At present, the sales volume of global functional textile market is 50 billion US dollars per year, and the demand of domestic textile is about 50 billion RMB. It is reported that in the future, the sales volume of functional textile market will increase by 3.8% every year, new technology and new products will be continuously updated, and the market prospect will be bright. The functional textiles with great market potential refer to one or more of the numerous effects of textiles, including antibacterial, acarid, mildew, antiviral, mosquito, moth, flame retardant, wrinkle and iron resistant, water and oil repellent, UV, electromagnetic radiation, fragrance, magnetic therapy, infrared line therapy, negative ion health care, etc., which can be used in the military All aspects of industry and life. With the development of China's economy and the improvement of people's living standards, people's demand for textile functionality is growing and higher.

Especially in recent years, environmental problems are particularly acute. People's functional requirements for masks are not limited to keeping warm, but are more inclined to professional masks with haze prevention function. Professional masks are often sold out of stock. Zhao Danqing, chairman of Shanghai Xingnuo Kanglun Fiber Technology Co., Ltd., said: "now is the golden age of mask demand. Our company has received continuous orders and is often in short supply."

At the same time, with the gradual improvement of people's health requirements, antibacterial textiles are becoming more and more popular and various. From underwear to insole, antibacterial function penetrates into every corner of textiles.

Not only in life, but also in industry, with the enrichment of people's cultural knowledge, safety and protection textiles are widely used in industry. "Nowadays, the hazards caused by static electricity are widespread and serious, such as the sparks generated by static electricity are easy to explode with inflammable and explosive gases or articles, and cause the loss of state, enterprise property and people's life and property." Chen Mingqing, chairman of Zhejiang lantianhai textile and Apparel Technology Co., Ltd., said that the harm of static electricity to electronic products can not be ignored, it can lead to dysfunction of electronic products and equipment and even damage of components.

According to the different use environment, the protective textiles have the functions of anti cutting, anti stabbing, anti bullet, explosion-proof, fire-proof, dust-proof, anti biochemical, anti radiation, etc. The personnel working on the high-voltage electric tower shall wear anti arc suits, the personnel working in some areas of the nuclear power station shall wear anti radiation suits, the personnel spraying pesticides and disinfectants shall wear anti chemical pollution suits, the astronauts shall wear space suits for spacewalk, and the firefighters shall wear fire suits, that is, the cleaners on the road shall also wear dust suits with warning signs. These protective equipment and clothing are widely used in oil, metallurgy, power generation, water conservancy, mining, shipping, fire fighting, life saving and other aspects. With the state's attention to the safety of workers, the research and development of this kind of textiles are more and more intensive.

"The importance of healthy life has made the functional textile industry rise rapidly, which has played an increasingly important role in the development of our national economy." Chen Mingqing said that the development of functional textiles in foreign countries has taken on a large scale, especially in Europe and the United States, where people attach great importance to health, so that the market of functional textiles continues to expand. Although our country started late, its overall development momentum is strong and its market potential is large.

New achievements emerge in endlessly

With the rapid development of functional textiles in China, the research and development of functional textiles shows a rising trend. With the increasing consumer demand for some special functional textiles, the research and development of functional textiles has been greatly concerned and widely participated by many domestic scientific research institutions, colleges and universities, and textile and clothing enterprises. A batch of research results of functional textiles are emerging, and China's functional textiles have formed a certain scale, relatively complete varieties and functional days A relatively stable industrial pattern will be developed. The R & D and application of functional textiles are developing towards the direction of multi fields, multi industries, multi disciplines, industrialization and industry university research collaboration, with endless new achievements.

In recent years, the research and industrialization of functional textiles in China has developed rapidly. New textile products with the functions of antibiosis and deodorization, far-infrared, UV, antistatic, electromagnetic radiation, oil and water repellent, negative ion, fire and flame retardant, water and moisture permeable, high moisture absorption, oil and mosquito repellent have been successfully developed and come out, and are attracting the attention and favor of consumers.

Shanghai Xingnuo Kanglun Fiber Technology Co., Ltd. is an outstanding representative of the development of functional textile enterprises. The Green Shield PM2.5 mask under Kanglun has been on sale since September 2012. Last year, Conlon space underwear entered the market again. This underwear is developed for the needs of the general public. It uses Conlon fiber with invention patent, which can remove the function of space underwear that is not needed by ordinary people, such as UV protection and flame retardant. We have developed a new generation of aerospace underwear, Kanglun Aerospace underwear, which has the functions of self-cleaning, antibacterial, deodorant, moisture absorption and perspiration, and greatly reduced the production cost, met the needs of ordinary people to wear Aerospace underwear, and enjoyed the results of safe and healthy life brought by this high technology. Once this kind of underwear comes out, it has been widely praised in the industry. "What the public needs is what we are striving for," Zhao said

When it comes to technology innovation, Chen Mingqing said that Zhejiang lantianhai textile and Apparel Technology Co., Ltd. cooperated with Jiangnan Branch of China Academy of Textile Sciences in 2010, and successively developed functional fabrics such as moisture absorption and quick drying, UV protection, PTFE film coating, warmth preservation, etc., and obtained a number of national invention patents. In 2012, Zhejiang blue sky sea cooperated with Tsinghua University to design international safety protection tooling with industrial characteristics and corporate image for industrial workers based on Tsinghua University's advantages in clothing design. In 2013, Professor Song Guowen, a global thermal protection expert and professor of the school of human ecology, University of Alberta, Canada, was hired as a senior technical consultant, mainly responsible for the research and development and application of thermal cooling fabrics. At present, "Lanxiang elsett" thermal cooling fabrics have reached the international leading level. The blue sky sea makes the functional textiles change to beautiful and comfortable on the basis of maintaining the anti-static safety and protection function, which is also the beginning of the internationalization of functional professional clothing.

As the largest and most professional supplier of anti-static safety protective fabric in China, blue sky sea has developed from a single anti-static fabric to a series of anti-static safety protective fabric of Lanxiang brand with independent intellectual property rights, from a fabric production base to five production bases throughout the country, from small-scale product marketing to global marketing. It can be said that this is the result of paying attention to the construction of independent innovation capacity and continuously launching new technologies and products.
