The main styles of swimsuit fabrics include nylon, polyester, polyester, nylon and spandex. These fabrics each have their own unique characteristics and applicable scenarios.
Nylon: It has excellent abrasion resistance, wrinkle resistance and elasticity, suitable for frequent swimming activities. In addition, nylon swimsuits have a certain degree of UV resistance, but they are highly absorbent and may feel heavy after soaking for a long time, and may generate static electricity during the drying process.
Polyester: Known for its excellent wrinkle resistance, quick drying and washability, it is not easy to deform and is suitable for long-term use. Although it is slightly less elastic than nylon, it has good UV resistance.
Polyester: Commonly used in swimsuits, it has good wrinkle resistance and deformation resistance, and is suitable for daily leisure swimming.
Nylon: Its high elasticity and wear resistance make it excellent in reducing movement resistance and improving swimming efficiency, and it is especially suitable for indoor swimming venues.
Spandex/Lycra: A highly elastic fiber, often used in blending to improve the stretchability and fit of swimsuits, reduce water resistance, and increase swimming speed. But it has weaker wear resistance and higher price.
In addition, polyester-spandex fabric combines the durability and lightness of polyester with the elasticity of spandex, making it suitable for consumers who pursue cost-effectiveness and easy care.
