How are nylon fibers different from polypropylene fibers?
There are three principle differences between the two fibers: • Superior Mesh “66” nylon fibers have a specific gravity of 1.14, whereas polypropylene fibers have a specific gravity of 0.91. This means that volume displaced and fiber count can be different for the two materials. In general the fiber count for Superior Mesh “66” are much higher than the polypropylene fibers both monofilament and fibrillated. Superior Mesh “66” has a fiber count of approximately 47 million long fibers in one, water soluble bag. Read more…
