To develop a new generation of environment-friendly and healthy textiles, it is necessary to comprehensively consider such factors as material selection, scientific and technological innovation, social responsibility and sustainable production, so as to reduce the impact on the environment and improve product performance and social responsibility.

There are many kinds of renewable and degradable fibers, some of which are as follows:

Recycled fiber:

Natural regenerated fiber: the reprocessed fiber obtained from natural fibers (such as cotton, linen, wool, etc.) through carding, spinning and other processing processes.

Chemical regenerated fiber: regenerated fiber is obtained from chemical raw materials (such as petroleum coke, wood tar, coal tar, etc.) through heating, distillation and other processes.

Electronic regenerative fiber: the reprocessed fiber obtained from the cleaning, impurity removal, carding and other processes of electronic components (such as cables, electromagnetic wires, resistors, etc.).

Bioregenerative fiber: It is the re processed fiber obtained from the hair or tissue of plants (such as flax, cotton, silk, etc.) or animals (such as wool, pig hair, etc.) through carding, spinning and other processing processes.

Each type of recycled fiber has its own characteristics and uses, and different types can be selected according to needs.

Degradable polymer fiber: degradable polymer fiber is a kind of fiber made of biodegradable polymer. These polymers will decompose into water and carbon dioxide with the increase of service time, so they will not pollute the environment.

Natural degradable fiber: some natural fibers, such as nylon and wool, can also be decomposed into water and carbon dioxide after a period of time through special treatment and spinning methods, so as to achieve the purpose of degradation.

Biodegradable fiber: Biodegradable fiber is made of biodegradable polymers, which can be decomposed into water and carbon dioxide in a certain time through biotechnology. This kind of fiber is important in health and environmental protection, but the corresponding production cost is high.

The above are some common renewable and degradable fibers. The choice of which fiber should be based on your own needs and environmental awareness.
