Decorative Metal Zippers is a kind of zipper, which refers to the zipper whose teeth are made of copper, cupronickel or aluminum. Compared with polyester zipper and epoxy zipper, it is stronger and is mostly used on jeans, coats and satchels.
Metal zipper selection
Cloth tape: Because the raw materials of the Custom Zipper Metal tape are polyester thread, suture thread, medium copper thread and other different types of thread, the weight and coloring properties are different, so it is very easy to install on the same zipper. If there is a color cast, at this time, when choosing a cloth tape, you should choose a cloth with uniform dyeing and no cloudy spots. The cloth tapes made of different fabrics are mainly soft to the touch.
Teeth: The teeth of the Golden Metal Zipper are also colored by electroplating, so when purchasing, you must pay attention to whether the stainless steel plating on the surface is uniform, whether there are colored spots, and whether the zipper can be driven smoothly from side to side. After the zipper is closed, it is necessary to observe whether the upper and lower teeth are engaged with each other. Asymmetrical zipper teeth will inevitably affect the use of the zipper.
Slider: Gun Metal Zipper sliders have many shapes and designs, and the finished products can be exquisite and delicate, but also rough and bold. But no matter what kind of slider it is, you need to feel whether it is easy to open the slider, and whether the zipper cannot be pulled or closed. At present, the sliders sold on the market all contain self-locking mechanisms, so after the zipper is closed, it is necessary to check whether the zipper will slide down after the lock cylinder is fixed.
When cleaning or producing clothing, keep in mind:
1. After the woolen fabric is ironed, it is necessary to ensure that the zipper is sufficiently cooled before it can be packaged. Otherwise, the heavy duty metal zipper will react with water vapor and it will easily fade. Second, after the production of clothing products, it is easy to leave some chemicals, and it is easy to react with the metal zipper at this time. Therefore, before installing metal zippers, it is necessary to ensure that the leather products have been sufficiently cleaned and neutralized.
2.Zippers have different adaptability in different conditions, so in the process of selecting and purchasing zippers, be sure to inform the manufacturer what kind of product the zipper you purchased will be used on, and you also need to inform the manufacturer Your requirements on the chemical composition of the zipper, such as whether it can pass the inspection needle and so on. In addition, it is strictly forbidden to use formamide in general dyes, because the dyed zipper will cause some symptoms after touching the body.
Scientific application of metal zippers:
1. When driving the Metal Gold Teeth Zipper, the teeth on both sides must be close first, and the top must be aligned, and then hold the metal zipper head and drive it gently along the rail, and do not pull too hard.
2. When moving the metal zipper head, be careful not to twist clothes or selvage and other sundries into the metal zipper, so as to prevent "teeth tilting", "broken belly" and "teeth falling off" and other situations.
3. If the metal zipper is astringent and difficult to move, do not pull it. You can apply some wax or soap on the metal zipper to move it.
4. If the teeth on one side of the Metal Gold Teeth Zipper head are contradictory and damaged, you can use ordinary tiger pliers to gently clamp the metal zipper head sideways.
Protect metal zippers from moisture, oxidation, rust and discoloration.
1. Avoid contact with humid environment: Because the metal zipper will be contaminated by metal oxidation, some teeth will turn black.
2. Avoid contact with the rubber band: Since the rubber band itself contains sulfate, when the Metal Gold Teeth Zipper is bundled with the rubber band, the metal chain teeth will be vulcanized (blackened).
3. Clean and dry in time after washing: due to the redox reaction between dyes or residual chemicals in the fabric and metal parts, it may cause discoloration of metal parts.
Cause of discoloration
1. Reasons for discoloration of Metal Open End Zipper made of alloy copper (white copper, red copper, red copper):
When applied to metal products or wool products, metal zippers will cause some teeth to turn black due to the chemical action of the metal. This is due to the fact that the leather simmering agent and the processing bleach in wool products, etc., remain on the product during the processing process, and the gas of the product will cause discoloration of the metal zipper.
Examples of chemical changes: oxidative bleach (H2O2) → black (CuO) or red (CuO2);
2. The reason for the discoloration of the Metal Open End Zipper bound by the rubber band:
The rubber band itself contains sulfate, and when the metal zipper is bound with a rubber band, the metal elements will be vulcanized (blackened).
Example of chemical change: standard for excess sulfate or HS2 gas → black [CuS]
3. The cause of discoloration caused by contact with acidic compounds or chromium compounds.
Examples of chemical changes: acidic compounds and chromium compounds [Cr2O3] → black [CuO, red [CuO2] or blue [CuSO4].
