Abstract

As a kind of new sustainable biopolymer fiber, seaweed fiber boasts a wide development and application space. The fabric made from that fiber drew a great attention in the textile field as soon as it came into being due to its strong biocompatibility and completely degradable absorbability. The new textile fabrics produced by extracting natural seaweeds (Ecklonia Kurome, kelp, Sargassum, etc.) are high in keeping warm, air permeability and very light in weight, with a promising application prospect for the elderly crowd (older than 60) involved in this paper. It perfectly meets the requirements of that crowd for daily clothing fabric performance.
