Toray Industries has created a new nylon textile using the textile manufacturer’s NanoDesign technology. Despite using a DWR treatment (with lower environmental cost), the latest innovation from the giant delivers high water repellency.
How? The textile’s structure has microscopic slits running lengthwise on the yarn. Water-repelling treatments fill these slits below the outside diameter of the yarn, also making the treatment more abrasion-resistant.
