acetate twisted thread

The acetate yarn is a versatile material with a broad range of possible use, including the fashion industry, household textiles as well as in medicine and many other areas. Acetate yarns are textile fibres made from the cellulose acetate. As in the production of viscose, the raw material here is cellulose. Textiles made of cellulose acetate fibre look very similar to natural silk and are almost as pleasant to touch. This is also why acetate yarn is known as artificial silk. They are usually crease-resistant and easy to care for. Water and swelling resistance makes the acetate yarn suitable for raincoat and umbrella fabrics. The glimmering appearance is nevertheless preserved. Furthermore, acetate yarns are used in the production of fabrics for blouses, shirts, dresses, lining, ties and lingerie.
