Modal fiber is a trademarked name for a high wet modulus viscose fiber. It differs from regular viscose fiber by improving the low strength and modulus of regular viscose fibers when wet, thus having higher strength and modulus in a wet state as well. Hence, it is often referred to as high wet modulus viscose fiber.

Similar products from different fiber manufacturers have various names, such as Lenzing ModalTM brand fiber from the Austrian company Lenzing, Polynosic, Fortrel, Tencel, and Newal, among others.

Preparation Method

The achievement of high moisture modulus performance is attributed to the special process employed in the production process. Different from the general production process of viscose fibers:

Cellulose should have a high average degree of polymerization (about 450).

(2) The prepared spinning stock solution has a high concentration.

(3) Adjust the composition of the suitable solidification bath (such as increasing the content of zinc sulfate) and lower the temperature of the solidification bath, which slows down the molding speed and is beneficial for obtaining fibers with dense structures and high crystallinity. The resulting fibers have a more uniform inner and outer layer structure, with the skin-core structure in the cross-section not as pronounced as in conventional viscose fibers. The cross-sectional shape tends to be circular or oval, and the longitudinal surface is also smoother. These fibers exhibit high strength and modulus in the wet state and have excellent moisture absorption properties, making them suitable for use in underwear.

The inner and outer layers of the fiber are more uniformly structured. The skin-core structure of the cross-section of the fiber is not as distinct as that of conventional rayon fibers. The cross-sectional shape tends to be circular or oval, with a smooth longitudinal surface. The fiber exhibits high strength and modulus in wet conditions, and excellent moisture-absorbing properties.

High tenacity, low tenacity, untwisted, high strength yarn, vortex spun, reverse twisted, and bamboo yarn varieties. Offer superior cotton (BCI), organic cotton (GOTS, OCS), recycled cotton, polyester (GRS), African cotton, Pima cotton yarns, and certificates. Hard-to-find yarns, we have in stock.
