Halo everyone. For a while already i am working as a technolog in factory which is producing mostly a synthetic fur. The material we are producing is (80-90)% acrylic and the rest is PES. Anyway we would like to reduce one of our biggest problem and that is plucking out of the fibers from the material which is knitted already. If i remove the physical side from the production, which is the knitting process, than something have to be wrong with the chemistry we are using in the process (the antistatic and the adhesive for thermal finishing of the product). Recently i was thinking of using a some kind of thermoplastic yarn with low melting point beside the standard one, which latter (after exposing on the right temperature) will provide better interlink between the base and the fibers which will stop the streaching out the fibers. But at this moment i am not sure if this kind of yarn is existing or if someone is producing the same. Any advice or link will be welcomed and i am grateful or it.
Best Regards
