Description

Products Description

Cellulose diacetate tow is a semi-synthetic cellulose-based fiber known for its outstanding hygroscopicity and absorbent qualities.

The fibers feature a "Y"-shaped cross-section, providing a high surface area-to-volume ratio, which enhances their efficiency in trapping and retaining harmful compounds present in cigarette smoke.

Tow specifications like 2.4Y/34000 denote the filament linear density (2.4 denier) and total denier count (34,000), both measured in denier. The "Y" indicates the filament's Y-shaped profile.
