Nylon filament is a continuous and long filament. During the production process of nylon, the spinning fluid is continuously extruded from the nozzle, cooled by air or condensed into a continuous filament in a coagulation bath, and then subjected to post-processing such as stretching, twisting, or deformation for further processing. Nylon filament is commonly used in knitting and silk industry, such as weaving various wear-resistant nylon socks such as single stockings and elastic stockings, nylon scarves, mosquito nets, nylon lace, elastic nylon outerwear, various nylon fabrics or interlaced silk products.

Nylon filament is a synthetic fiber, and its most outstanding advantage is its wear resistance, which is higher than all other fibers, 10 times higher than cotton wear resistance and 20 times higher than wool wear resistance. Adding a little nylon fiber to blended fabrics can greatly improve its wear resistance; The new polyamide fibers of nylon-3 and nylon-4 are considered to have great development prospects due to their lightweight, excellent wrinkle resistance, good breathability, outstanding durability, dyeability, and heat setting properties.
