Chicken Feather Fiber

It can be used not only for weaving and clothing, but also for hydrogen storage materials, advanced air filter paper and lightweight high-strength synthetic materials.


At the International Symposium on new functional textile materials and low carbon economy held jointly by the Chinese Academy of Textile Sciences and the Beijing Textile Engineering Society in Changzhou, Jiangsu, a new field of vision on the development and application of low carbon economy and chicken hair fiber has been brought to the attention of the delegates.

The international trend of low carbon economy and green environmental protection should be combined with China's abundant chicken feather resources.

The development and utilization has become a new hot spot for researchers.


The development and application of feather, especially feather down, such as duck down and goose down, has been widely applied to clothing, home textiles and other fields in China.

But for the development and application of poultry plumes, especially

Chicken feather fiber

At present, China is still in the initial stage of research and development.


According to Zhu Baoyu, vice president of the northwest Textile Technology Institute (now Xi'an Polytechnic University), the development of chicken feather fiber is a research field related to new energy development technology, full utilization of resources and protection of the environment.


In recent years, the scale of chicken raising in China has increased rapidly, and the output of chicken feather is considerable.

However, due to the problem of chicken feather collection in China, a large part of chicken feather is treated as garbage.

According to Zhu Baoyu, at present, the development and application of chicken feather fiber has been involved in national defense, clothing and clothing.

Poultry feather contains more than 85% keratin, and is rich in 18 amino acids and various mineral elements. It is a valuable natural resource, and its thermal insulation performance is far higher than that of cotton.

But at present, it has not been well utilized, resulting in serious waste and environmental pollution.


Zhu Baoyu told reporters, in fact,

Chicken feather fiber

The development of it has a good development prospect.

Carbonized chicken feather fibers can be used as hydrogen storage materials.

Hydrogen is the preferred fuel for future vehicles, and the biggest obstacle to the realization of hydrogen energy economy is hydrogen production and storage.

In order to solve the problem of hydrogen storage, the most important thing is to find a cheap and environment-friendly material that can act as hydrogen adsorbent in fuel cells. Foreign scientists have studied various kinds of nanostructured materials but have no results. The research and development of carbonized chicken feather fibers in the United States is expected to solve this problem.

Experiments show that storing hydrogen with carbonized chicken feather fiber will greatly improve the existing hydrogen storage technology, which can absorb even more hydrogen than carbon nanotubes and hydrogen storage alloys. It may overcome the obstacles existing in the use of hydrogen materials in automobiles, trucks and other machinery, so that hydrogen energy economy can be truly realized.

In particular, carbonized chicken feather storage hydrogen is green and environmental friendly, and protein natural fiber can be degraded.


Pheasant feather can be used as a new generation of bulletproof vest.

The pheasant feathers are unique and of high value. They can make high-grade robe, satin, brocade and silk garments, and also make feather fans, feather paintings, toys and crafts.

In recent years, the British Ministry of defense has made the pheasant feather the most effective bulletproof vest. This new bulletproof vest made of pheasant feather is lighter and cheaper than the bulletproof vest made by Kevlar.

Scientists: Using Wool Resources To Develop Chicken Feather Fiber 2

According to Zhu Baoyu, chicken feather is also used to make high-grade air filter paper. At present, chicken feather fibers are used to replace some wood pulp components in paper products. Chicken feather fiber can play a supporting role in the framework. The filter paper and decorative paper products developed with chicken feather fiber have begun commercial application. In the paper containing chicken feather fiber, chicken feather fiber accounted for 51%, wood pulp accounted for 49%, and env
