What are Microfibers ?

1 / What is a microfiber ?

The first microfibers were developed in Japan around 1976. It became economically possible to use microfibers in the 1980s. A Microfiber weight is less than 1 gram per 10 km length. Several different processes can be used to produce these fibers, all involving the splitting of a basic fiber into very many smaller ones.

2 / Properties and Advantages of microfiber technology

Dailytec?s microfibers are made from extremely thin filaments of polyester and polyamide . They are tough, resilient, and can be manufactured to extremely fine tolerances, many times thinner than other synthetics. This strength, precision, absolute sheerness and its phenomenal absorbency that gives rise to so many applications, including an amazing ability to clean up and dry all kind of surfaces.

3 / More about the Microfiber technology

The microfiber technology is the blend of microscopic polyester and polyamide fibers which are split in such a way so as to create microscopic "hooks" which act as claws that scrape up and hold dust, dirt, and grime.
