Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Spandex production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.
Spandex is a synthetic polymer that is widely known for its lightweight, abrasion resistance, and excellent durability. It is widely used in a variety of clothing and apparel because of its ability to maintain shape and provide comfort. It is mainly used in swimwear, cycling jerseys, wetsuits, yoga pants, gloves, and various compression garments, such as foundation garments and motion capture suits. It is also used in the production of various household products, including fitted sheets, table coverings, and microbead pillows. It is also used in athletic wear and other form-fitting clothing because of its excellent elasticity.
The market for Spandex is largely directed by its application in manufacturing a wide range of clothing and apparel due to its ability to stretch and provide comfort, which promotes its demand. Its application in the production of garments, such as hosiery, swimsuits, wrestling suits, surgical suits, etc., further enhances its demand in the sports apparel and medical industries. Its usage in making bras, lingerie straps, bathing suits, upholstery, and certain medical products to enhance stretchability largely propels its demand in the apparel, furniture, and medical supplies industries. Additionally, its application in the sports apparel industry, the availability of raw materials (Polyester/Polyether, etc.), its cost, distribution, logistics, quality standards, and supplier relationships are some crucial factors that influence industrial Spandex procurement to a great extent.
Raw Material for Spandex Production
According to the Spandex manufacturing plant project report, the major raw material for Spandex production includes Macro-glycol (Polyester/Polyether/Polycarbonate/polycaprolactone).
Manufacturing Process of Spandex
The extensive Spandex production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:
- Production via Dry Spinning Method: This method of production involves the process of addition polymerization of macroglycols for producing spandex fiber. The synthesis begins with the reaction of the (-OH) group on the macroglycols with the isocyanates in the presence of diazobicyclo octane, which facilitates the addition of each molecule on the end of another molecule to obtain spandex as the desired product.
Spandex or Elastane Fiber is a synthetic polymer comprising a long-chain polyglycol paired with a short di-isocyanate, containing a minimum of 85% polyurethane. The molecular formula of the compound is C2H6, and it is insoluble in water. Spandex is an elastomer with great stretchability (it can stretch over 500% without breaking) and recoils after being released. They are better than rubber since they offer qualities like being lighter, stronger, and more versatile. It is abrasion-resistant, smooth, and resistant to sweat, body oils, lotions, or detergents. It has a density between 1.15 to 1.32 g/cc, a heat resistance up to over 300 F, and a breaking tenacity of 0.6 to 0.9 grams/denier. It can be of any length in a white or nearly white color with a dull luster. The melting point of the compound is 240°C. However, it can be dyed in different colors. It has low electrical conductivity. It has great resistance against acids, alkalies, dry cleaning solvents, and bleaches. The flash point of this compound is around 23°C.
