Their common characteristics are elasticity but low mechanical resistance. They are very absorbent, heat resistant up to 135\u00b0C before yellowing, burn easily, resistant to organic solvents and acids. <\/p>\n

In the field of technical textiles, they are used for their thermoregulatory characteristics, mainly for the equipment of individuals, in the field of sports, safety, but also in furniture and insulation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t
