What is Nyl-Glo? It is a flag made of 100% nylon using
DuPont SolarMax™.
SolarMax™ brand
nylon was introduced by DuPont in 1996 to promote superior ultraviolet
resistance and appearance benefits of a family of nylon yarns for use
in outdoor fabric applications. The product line includes 200- and
400-denier bright and semi-dull luster, and 30- to 210-denier
high-tenacity yarns.
DuPont nylon yarns have
enjoyed excellent performance for many years in applications such as
flags, banners, hot-air balloons, parachutes, sportchutes, life
jackets, and tents. Inherent strength and built-in ultraviolet
resistance, using a base type 6,6 nylon, allows superior performance
over type 6 nylons and polyesters of similar fabric constructions.
For bright color or
sparkling luster applications, the use of the bright or high-tenacity
yarns makes attractive fabrics while maintaining even dye appearance
and good screen printing/dyeing processing. Use of bright-luster yarns
will also provide enhanced brilliance for higher-intensity screening
graphics. |
