Analysis:

Lycra is a registered trademark of an artificial elastic fiber successfully developed by DuPont. It is a polyester spandex produced by dry spinning. Its fiber is composed of flexible segments and rigid segments. It is this molecular structure that gives Lycra excellent extensibility and elastic recovery properties. Lycra can be stretched to 4-7 times its original length, with a recovery rate of 100%. Compared with rubber, its elasticity is longer and more durable, and it is 1/3 lighter in weight. At present, Lycra has been widely used in various fields of textile product production, and its application in the clothing industry is also very broad; from light and thin underwear to heavy outerwear, from sportswear to fashion suits, etc.
