Graphene Fabrics

Graphene Fabrics

Beta Textiles Co., Limited has launched a sportswear collection with fabrics containing graphene together with a graphene textile material partner in Shangdong Province, China.

As an innovative material with nano technology and derived from graphite, significantly improves performance for the benefits of athletes, professionals and sports enthusiasts. The major characteristics of this smart fabric is its ability to act as a filter between the body and the external environment, ensuring the ideal temperature of the wearer. The warmth produced by the human body is dispersed in warm climates, and preserved and distributed evenly in cold climates.

Further, graphene fabrics are electrostatic and bacteriostatic, sportswear made with such fabrics are able to reduce the friction with air and water to enable top sporting performance.

Functions of Graphene Fabrics:

Far infrared radiation

Graphene fabrics release far infrared rays with a wavelength identical to water molecules in human cells. When such rays radiates on human bodies, resonance occurs with water molecules in human cells. Human surface cells will be activated, and microcirculation of human subcutaneous tissue will be accelerated to generate heat, improve health and immunity.

Graphene fabrics have great effects on improving human microcirculation. Compared with normal fabrics, blood flow rate improves by 141.34%, number of hemocytes increases by 61.73%, velocity increases by 50.07%, termperature increases by 4.21%, i.e. 1.27 °C.

Anti-microbial

Graphene fabrics are intrinsically anti-bacterial without any treatment.

Moisture Managment

Graphene fabrics provide excellent moisture management performance. It absorbs moisture and perspiration rapidly to keep the wearer dry and comfort.

Anti-static

Graphene fabrics provide excellent moisture management performance. It absorbs moisture and perspiration rapidly to keep the wearer dry and comfort.

Anti-UV

Graphene fabrics absorb UV to protect the wearer from UV radiations.

Green and ECO Material

BTEXCO uses a biomass graphene made with corn core cellulose as raw material. There is no chemical pollution in the whole process.

Heat Storage

Graphene fabrics absorb heat from the sun and human body, store it in the fabric to keep the wearer warm.

Based on tests with Kaken, the fabric temperature is 16 °C higher than fabrics made with normal polyester when the fabric is exposed to the sun.
