NYLON

Nylon 6 is extensively applied in both cleaning and industrial sectors, owing to its remarkable versatility and streamlined processing capabilities. In contrast, Nylon 66 stands out with elevated specifications, particularly excelling in wear resistance, abrasion resistance, and bend recovery. This positions Nylon 66 as the material of choice for crafting industrial brushes, paintbrushes, personal hygiene brushes, and a range of other applications. Meanwhile, the filaments derived from Nylon 610/612 exhibit peak specifications, showcasing impressive prowess in bend recovery and abrasion resistance. Notably, their limited water absorption, influencing elasticity, renders them indispensable for the production of toothbrushes, makeup brushes, and a diverse spectrum of industrial uses.

POLYESTER

Polyester monofilaments find their primary application in the creation of brooms and brushes, particularly when specific attributes take precedence. These attributes include excellent resistance to elevated temperatures, the capacity for effective flagging, and a soft texture in thinner diameters. The inherent durability and resistance to wear and abrasion further position Polyester as a valuable choice for crafting industrial brushes and paintbrushes. This alternative material offers a compelling option, rivaling traditional materials like Nylon or natural fibers, ensuring reliability and performance across various applications.
