The weather is getting colder. Are you ready with your thermal underwear?
When it comes to thermal underwear, we have to say this year’s most popular “DeRong underwear”. It has a layer of very soft plush on the surface, both in terms of visual temperature and temperature. The actual temperature of DeRong underwear is really several degrees higher than that of ordinary underwear, and the feel is also super soft and waxy.
Therefore, for any fabric with a bit of velvet, merchants can’t help but add “De Velvet” in the title Not only that, but all kinds of German underwear of varying quality have also come out to join in the fun.
So much so that some netizens mistakenly mistake “polyester fiber” chemical fiber underwear for German velvet underwear, and there are various complaints. DeRong underwear is “airtight” and “generates static electricity”. Sure enough, the more popular something is, the greater the controversy!
Today I want to talk to you about Delong. What exactly is Delong? Does DeRong generate static electricity? Is the DeRong underwear worth buying from a certain brand that sells tens of thousands of dollars at a time?
What is DeRong?
What DeRong is, we have to start with the German company Bayer. They previously produced and developed a high-tech fabric called “Acrylic”, its scientific name is Bayer acrylic, and its English name is Dralon, which translates as “German velvet”, so “acrylic fiber ≠ German velvet underwear”, it is very important to understand this!
Nowadays, in order to make fabrics into clothes, they need to go through the process of blending with other fabrics. The same is true for DeRong underwear. The clothes made by blending it with other fabrics are traceless, invisible and not bloated. In addition, the air layer generated by the fluff fibers on the surface of the acrylic fiber can lock in the temperature and prevent cold air from entering. It is naturally more durable than other fabrics. Keep warm.
Does DeRong underwear generate static electricity? These 3 ingredients are the key!
Many people say that German velvet is prone to static electricity. First of all, you have to check whether the German velvet underwear you buy contains acrylic fiber! A textile engineer previously gave 3 must-see ingredient recommendations when choosing German velvet underwear!
1. Acrylic fiber (German fiber): about 30% is appropriate, which can achieve better thermal insulation effect.
2. Viscose component (regenerated cellulose fiber): more than 20%, which can neutralize the stinky problem of acrylic fibers causing static electricity, and can also improve hygroscopicity and make it easier to wear. Comfortable.
3. Spandex (elastic fabric): more than 5% is appropriate. Only clothes that are close to the body can ensure that they do not catch wind and better help keep warm.
According to the composition and fabric data given by the “Textile Chemical Engineer”, we also targeted 3 products with high sales volume on a certain website. We did a comparison of the ingredient data of German velvet underwear and found that there were not only fake German velvet with 0% acrylic added, but also low-quality German velvet with substandard content. Only a very small number of stores complied with this.
In addition, the remaining 45% of the ingredients are not limited. Although they can be added at will, the quality of the fabric blended with them The height also determines the quality of the entire piece of clothing. The ones with average quality include polyester, cotton, and modal, while those with high quality include mulberry silk, cashmere protein, and wool that are very popular nowadays.
So when buying clothes with this kind of functional fabric, it is crucial to learn to read the ingredient list! Okay, without further ado, those friends who complain about the German velvet underwear that is not warm and prone to static electricity should quickly check the ingredient list.
