Definisie
Fiber is inartificial or synthetic filament. Textile fiber is the fiber which is the raw material of cloth.

Characteristics of textile fiber
Textile fiber has good physical characteristics including length, fineness, elastisiteit, brute force, ens. It also has good chemical stability. For example cotton, feather, kant, hemp and other natural fibers are ideal textile fibers.

Category of textile fiber
Textile fiber is classified into natural fiber and chemical fiber.

Natural fiber contains vegetable fiber, animal fiber and mineral fiber.
Vegetable fiber: katoen, hennep, fruit fiber, ens.
Animal fiber: wool, rabbit hair, kant, ens.
Mineral fiber: asbestos.

Chemical fiber includes regenerated fiber, synthetic fiber and inorganic fiber.
Regenerated fiber: viscose fiber, cellulose acetate fiber.
Synthetic fiber: nylon, polyester, acrylic, spandex, vinylon, polypropylene, ens.
Inorganic fiber: fiberglass, metal fiber, ens.

Textile performance of common textile fiber
wol: Wool has good absorption of moisture and elasticity. It is suitable for acidic dyes and metal binding dyes.
Silk: Silk has good absorption of moisture, breathability and high glossiness. It is suitable for acidic dyes.
katoen: Cotton has good breathability, absorption of moisture. It is suitable for basic dyes, sulfide dyes and reactive dyes.
Viscose fiber: Viscose fiber has good breathability, absorption of moisture, various colors, lae koste. The properties of viscose fiber are similar to natural fiber. It is suitable for dyes.
polyester: Polyester has good wearing resistance. It is suitable for disperse dyes, diazonium disperse dyes. Polyester can dissolve in vat dyes.
nylon: Nylon has good wearing resistance and bad breathability. It is suitable for acetic dyes and disperse dyes.
Polyacrylonitrile fiber: Polyacrylonitrile fiber is suitable for disperse dyes and cationic dyes.

How to distinguish fibers
The ways to distinguish fibers include feelings, visualization, combustion, microscope, dissolution, drug coloring and infrared spectroscopy.

Distinguishing procedures:
Uses combustion to distinguish natural fiber and chemical fiber.
If it is natural fiber, using microscope can distinguish vegetable fibers and animal fibers. If it is chemical fiber, distinguish it by combining with its melting point, proportion, refractive index and solubility.
When distinguishing mixed fiber and mixed yarn, use microscope to confirm various fibers. Then use other methods to distinguish in further.
For colored fibers, dyes should be peeled in advance to guarantee reliability.

Mexico government enforced new law of the label for textiles and clothing. The new law is applied for garments, garment accessaries, textiles and home textile products whose textile ingredients accounting for more than 50% of the whole weight. Many products are not restrained by the rules, such as fabric-made toys, suit, furniture, badges, flags, zippers, buttons, buckles, gloves, cosmetic bags etc.

The label rules are very detailed and contain a series of requirement and exception. In die algemeen, garments and garment accessaries must carry permanent, clear labels on the collar, waist or other obvious parts.

Home textiles labels must also include the above information, except that using dimensions instead of Sizes. The following products must be labeled with permanent labels containing this information: sheets, blankets, bed sheet, bedspread, table cloth, eat mat, napkin, finished curtains, towels, mattresses and mattress with textile materials. Except bedspreads and blankets, the sizes, manufacturers and importers information must be listed on temporary labels.

For handbags, luggage boxes, beursies, suitcases, backpacks, umbrellas, seat cover, cushion, cleaning supplies, diapers, oil painting canvas, daily necessities, bathroom furniture, some retail fabric and other various products, the name and address of manufacturer or importer must be labeled. For disposable items, this information can be displayed on the product packaging.

Moroccan Ambassador to China Jafar Hakim expressed that Morocco embassy will issue a one-year long term visa to Chinese businessmen who are interested to invest in Morocco and is willing to provide necessary assistance. This shows that economic cooperation between the two countries is rising up, including textile clothing industry. Textile and apparel industry is the second pillar industry in Morocco. Local Textile and Garment Industry Association hopes to find a Chinese partner to develop the European and American market jointly.

As one of Morocco government’s prior developing industries, textile industry in Morocco has a history of more than 100 jaar. Tans, the number of textile industry employees accounts for 200,000, which is the largest scale of industry employment. Due to close geography and culture, Europe has become the main market of Morocco textile industry.

According to the introduction of Morocco’s Textile and Garment Industry Association chairman Mohamed Tazi, currently, Moroccan textile industry annual output value reaches about 6 billion Euros, of which about 4 billion Euros exported to the European market, en 2 billion Euros sold in local market. It is expected that in the next 10 jaar, textile product consumption of local market will increase to 4 billion Euros.

In order to promote the rapid development of textile industry, Morocco new trade and industry department released the 2025 textile industry planning last year. The main contents include: to increase the scale of production; to improve and update production technology; to enhance regional and international competitiveness. Mohamed Tazi said: “China will become a good partner of Morocco, especially in spinning, weef, accessories and other fields, and will urge us to complete the export target.”

Daarbenewens, he believes in the aspect of enterprise operation cost, China and Morocco are equally matched. “It is also an opportunity for Morocco. Chinese companies can help us improve the industrial chain. Morocco textile industry is full of opportunities, both in production and design fields”
