Toray commercializes Ecodear N510100 plant-based nylon fiber

摘要

Toray Industries has developed a nylon 510 (N510) fiber that incorporates 100% bio-based synthetic polymer content as defined under section 3.1.5 of ISO 16620-1: 2015, the international standard for the bio-based content of plastics. Ecodear N510 will be the first 100% plant-based nylon fiber in Toray's Ecodear lineup. While primarily for sports and outdoor fabrics, potential applications also include lightweights, cut-and-sew fabrics and innerwear lace materials.
