New Optical Functional Materials To Dress Up Textiles And Garments

Environmentally friendly, innocuous and harmless organic light.

It is a new type of optical functional material gradually recognized by people in recent years.

When exposed to sunlight or other light sources, the material changes from colorless or light to red, green, blue and violet.

When it is irradiated or avoided by another light source, it returns to its original state and can be changed repeatedly.

This new material was first used in the field of high technology such as optical information storage. In recent years, it has become a prominent figure in the field of civil service, especially in clothing, plastics and coatings.

This year, fashionable camouflage clothes, discoloured shirts and color changing shoes on the market show the magic effect of organic light and color changing materials, making fashion textiles and garments more colorful.

China's organic photochromic materials started in the 80s of last century.

Nankai University student graduation certificate anti-counterfeiting seal is the earliest anti-counterfeit recognition application of domestic university diploma, and is also the earliest application of the technology in anti-counterfeiting recognition technology.

Subsequently, the technology has been applied in clothing decoration, ink, paint, plastics and other fields, producing color changing clothes.

It has also been developed successfully in military concealed camouflage materials, and the gradual application of chameleon camouflage clothing has matured.

In 2010, Tianjin Fuxin Technology Co., Ltd. carried out industrial upgrading of the technology, enabling the technology of organic photochromic materials to enter the industrialization stage from the laboratory, producing more than 10 new photochromic materials with national invention patent technology protection, and successfully entering the market application, especially in the clothing industry.

At present, the applications of photochromic materials are mainly in the direction of functional textile materials, optical information storage materials, self developing photographic films and hologram materials, anti-counterfeiting recognition technology, and military concealed camouflage materials.

Among them, the textile industry is the most mature.

In recent years, photochromic garments, textiles, clothing accessories, children's clothing, T-Shirts, military camouflage clothes have been facing the market, entering the homes of the people and improving people's consumption experience.

In the field, the organic photochromic material is added to the textile printing and dyeing mucilage, which is applied to the printing and dyeing of clothing and cloth, and produces clothing with different color effects with the change of light inside and outside the room, or the fabric of special clothing is produced.

At present, Fuxin Company has developed a discoloring glue that can be applied to all kinds of textiles. It can increase differentiation competitiveness and enhance brand recognition for textiles or clothing, and bring a fresh breeze to the serious clothing market.

These discolored mucilages can also be added functional materials, such as fluorescent agents, so that textiles or clothing with anti-counterfeiting, noctilucent and other functions, used in specific circumstances, such as policemen working at night, or sanitation workers at night and so on.

The famous Internet clothing brand customers use discolouration glue to successfully launch the magic T-shirt to the market, which can be changed from one pattern to another in the sunlight, or the pattern is changed from colorless to consumer favorite color. After returning to the interior, the design of the T-shirt is restored to the original and is favored by consumers.

Many consumers say that discolourful clothing brings them a unique and distinctive feeling. This is a pleasant experience, and through the function of discoloration, it can express consumers' taste and personalize their fashion personality.

Some consumers even joke that color changing clothing can be rendered different colors in different environments. Buying a piece of clothing can be worn as two items.

It is these interesting characteristics that make the color changing material more and more widely used in clothing.
