An Introduction to Milk Fiber-A Review

Introduction

MilkFiber was first introduced in 1930 in Italy & America to compete with wool. It is a new generation of innovative Fiber & a kind of synthetic Fiber made of milk casein Fiber through a bio-engineering method with biological health, which has passed international ecological certification of Oeko-Tex standard 100. There are also some different brands for the same fiber manufactured from milk casein known as Aralac, Lanatil, and Merinova.

Milk Yarn

Cyarn milk protein fiber dewaters and skims milk and manufactures the protein spinning fluid suitable for the wet spinning process by means of new bio-engineering technique, and new high-grade textile fiber is made by combining them.

Cyarn milk protein fiber is healthy for the skin, comfortable, with bright colors due to good dyeability, etc. The milk protein fiber can be spun purely or spun with cashmere, silk, spun silk, cotton, wool, ramie, and other fibers to weave fabrics with the features of milk protein fiber. It can also be used to create top-grade underwear, shirts, T-shirts, loungewear, etc. to satisfy people's pursuit of comfortable, healthy, superior, and fashionable garments.

General Features

Light, soft, comfortable, colorful, and Elegant Colorful - Keeping a tender hand-touch and the right color after several washings. Easy Care - Being resistant to fungus, good moisture absorption & conduction, insects, and aging.

Advantages

Today's Milk Fiber is environmentally friendly, high strength & much more superior compared to man-made fibers. Some of the benefits of having Milk Fiber are as given below:

• As it has continuous graft polymerization technique, it is totally eco-friendly in nature.
• It can be considered as a "Green Product" as no formaldehyde is present in the product.
• Milk fiber is made from milk casein instead of fresh milk. We may use acid, reactive, or cationic dyes for this kind of specialty fiber.
• The pH of milk fiber is 6.8, which is the same as that of human skin. Hence the products made from them are more compatible with human skin.
• Milk Fiber contains seventeen amino acids, and the natural anti-bacterial rate is above eighty percent. Hence milk fiber has a sanitarian function.
• It is a new synthetic Fiber having milk protein as the main material based on a high technical process. Milk Fiber has the advantages of natural Fiber combined with synthetic Fiber.
• These are more comfortable, with excellent water transportation & air permeability.
