Resin button is the abbreviation of unsaturated polyester resin button. Resin buttons are one of the best quality synthetic buttons, and have the characteristics of wear resistance, heat resistance, chemical resistance, complexity, dyeability, and electroplating.
Abrasion resistance
Unsaturated resin belongs to thermosetting cross-linking resin, which has high strength and scratch resistance than thermoplastic plexiglass button surface. Therefore, it can generally withstand the continuous friction of the washing machine without breaking. Even if it is applied to stone-washed clothing, the resin button can also withstand the test.
Heat resistance
Generally, resin buttons can be treated with hot water at 100°C for about 1 hour. When the garment is ironed, it is not necessary to remove the buttons, which is also not available in other ordinary thermoplastic buttons.
Chemical resistance
Resin shirt buttons can be corroded by various inorganic acids with a concentration of 30% and ordinary hydrogen peroxide, but cannot be soaked in ketones, esters, banana water and alkaline water for a long time.
Complexity
This feature is the most critical difference between resin buttons and other buttons. It is also for this reason that resin buttons have become the overlord of the button industry in the world today and are enduring. Resin buttons of any color and shape can be produced as long as required. Due to the easy processing, fast production speed and high degree of mechanization, the price of resin buttons is very low. The imitation of resin buttons is world-class, and various shell textures, colors, woods, animal bone horns, marble, granite, agate, ivory, flower and grass patterns can be imitated with unsaturated resin.
Dyeability
Resin buttons have good dyeability, and the method is simple and the effect is good. The dyed buttons have bright color and good color fastness. The dyes commonly used in resin button dyeing include all low temperature and medium temperature disperse dyes, some high temperature disperse dyes, some basic dyes and cationic dyes such as basic magenta green and basic rhodopsin.
Electroplatability
Large resin buttons can be electroplated after special chemical treatment.
Resin buttons are especially suitable for casual clothing due to their rich shapes, colors, cheap prices and other factors. It can be predicted that the 21st century will still be dominated by unsaturated resin buttons.
