Synthetic Fiber

In 1989, with the purchase of fiber carding machines and product diversity, more innovative products began to be produced.

The share of artificial fibers in world fiber production is gradually increasing. World fiber production in 1998 increased by 2.840 thousand tons compared to the previous year and reached 47.8 million tons.

The share of artificial fibers increased from 53% to 58%. Man-made fiber production in the world increased by 1% in 1998 and reached 27.8 million tons. While the production of artificial fiber with cellulosic structure decreased by 3% to 2.8 million tons, the production of synthetic artificial fiber increased by 1% to 25 million tons.

The regional distribution of manmade fiber production around the world has changed a lot: Asia and especially the Far East have a 65% share of world production, an indication of the dominance of this field. The share of the USA is 16%, Western Europe 13%, Japan 6%.

In addition to traditional consumer products, artificial fibers; It is widely used in many areas such as ready-to-wear, carpet, upholstery, bedding and window applications.

Ribbons made of polyester, nylon, aramid or rayon add the necessary strength to tires to withstand a wide variety of road techniques and to operate at high speeds.

Reinforced nylon, aramid, glass and other high-tech fibers provide the rigidity and strength needed in composite materials used in all kinds of fields, from car chassis and bathroom goods to sports equipment.

Even electronic circuit boards use fiber compounds. The list seems endless and new applications are constantly increasing.

Fabrics used for engineering and construction structures are a highly developing field. Highly sophisticated medical devices, from artificial arteries to antibacterial dressings, are made from artificial fibers.
