We know that reflective fabrics can also be divided into ordinary light reflection, bright reflection and bright silver reflection according to brightness.
The ordinary bright reflective fabric is gray, its glass beads are not aluminized, and the reflective brightness is generally 5 (CD / LX. M) ²) - 20 (cd/lx.m ²) It is suitable for sewing safety protection products with low requirements for reflective brightness. The bright reflective fabric is silver gray in the daytime, and the aluminum plated glass beads on the surface can be clearly seen, with a reflective brightness of 250 (CD / LX. M) ²) To 420 (CD / LX. M) ²)， Wash more than 15-25 times (iso6330). It is suitable for sewing safety protection products with certain requirements. For example, various reflective vests and other light fabrics. Bright silver reflective fabrics are displayed as metallic silver in the daytime. Aluminized glass beads are used, and the reflective brightness is greater than 420 (CD / LX. M) ²)， Washing for more than 50-100 times (iso6330), dry cleaning for more than 50 times (iso6330), industrial washing for more than 50 times (iso6330). It is suitable for sewing safety protection products with high reflective brightness and high washing resistance requirements, such as high-quality reflective vest or reflective raincoat.
In addition to reflective fabrics, conventional reflective materials include reflective thermal film, reflective flame retardant cloth, reflective elastic cloth, soft fabric reflective cloth, etc.
The chemical fiber reflective fabric uses 100% chemical fiber as the base cloth, which is composed of wide-angle and exposed high refractive index glass beads adhered to the fabric liner. The TC reflective fabric uses 70% polyester 30% cotton as the base cloth, which is composed of wide-angle and exposed high refractive index glass beads adhered to the fabric liner. The chemical fiber reflective fabric is lighter and thinner than the TC reflective fabric. Some reflective thermal films use PES as the base material , a reflective material formed by wide-angle and exposed retroreflective glass beads adhered to hot-melt adhesive. It is an elastic multi-functional product. It is suitable for safety, sports and leisure, outdoor lamps and clothing. It can also be made into piping, placket, computer engraving into various graphics, silk screen signs, etc. the surface of reflective flame retardant cloth is made of wide-angle and exposed glass beads with high refractive index It is composed of beads and adheres to the durable cotton back shirt, with high flame retardant and heat resistance. It is suitable for safety protection in fire fighting, petroleum and petrochemical, electric power and other operation fields. The reflective elastic cloth adopts polyester ammonia or polyamide ammonia as the base material, which can be divided into single-sided elastic and double-sided elastic, with certain ductility. It is suitable for all kinds of clothing surfaces with elastic fabrics. In addition to sewing, it can also be processed by high-frequency pressure welding. Soft The base material of soft fabric reflective cloth is not spun with nylon, which feels soft and can be directly used as clothing fabric.
According to en 71-3 European standard and ANSI / 2004 American Standard, the brightness of reflective cloth must reach 330 (CD / LX. M ²)， Water washing shall be more than 25 times and pass a series of physical tests. Therefore, for reflective clothes with standard requirements, standard reflective fabrics must be used.
