What is the importance of nylon fishing net for modern fishing industry?

The impact of nylon materil on modern Fishing Nets

Three days of fishing and two days of drying nets is a criticism of laziness in doing things in our habits, but in the past fishermen had to fish for three days and two days of drying nets. Because the fishing nets in the past were made of hemp fiber, which is easy to swell when it absorbs water, and is easy to rot and tear when it is wet. Therefore, after two or three days of using the fishing net, it was repaired in the sun for two days to prolong the life of the fishing net. Fish drying nets on fishermen for two days means that if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools.

But now fishermen don’t have to fish for three days and dry their nets for two days. Modern fishing nets are no longer made of hemp fiber. The material used to make fishing nets is a polymer material—nylon.

The nylon 6 used to make fishing nets has changed the water absorption characteristics of cotton and linen, so there is no such thing as "drying the net". Moreover, the fishing net made of nylon 6 material has very high strength, has strong corrosion resistance no matter in fresh water or sea water, and the service life can reach 5-8 years. It does not absorb water and is not easy to tear. Nylon will completely end fishing for three days and drying the net for two days.

Since it is a polymer material that is resistant to corrosion and difficult to degrade, the fate of these fishing nets after 5-8 years has become a big problem. Since the advent of plastic products, fishing nets that cannot be treated scientifically have opened a net of death to marine life, which is distressing. So where are these fishing nets going? There are marine organizations that recycle discarded fishing nets recovered from the ocean and make them into ball nets. However, picking up marine debris cannot really solve the problem. The most important thing is not to throw away fishing nets at the source. Recycling waste fishing nets is not only made into ball nets, but also made into nylon particles or nylon after scientific processing. Silk can continue to be put into the manufacturing industry as a material for suitable product manufacturing.

In fact, it is not only the terminator of fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, nylon is also indispensable in our life. From nylon ropes and nylon clothing that we have heard of, to various home appliances, automobiles, medical parts and so on that we don't have a deep understanding of, nylon is involved. You may not know that these are nylon products. Through the pictures, we can roughly understand the wide application of nylon in life. Many plastic products are made of nylon resin.

How did nylon, which was born less than a hundred years ago, quickly occupy the manufacturing industry and become an important engineering plastic? This is because of the excellent properties of nylon. Nylon has high mechanical strength, heat resistance, wear resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance... These good properties allow nylon to have a lot of space for use and great possibilities for development.

For example, although the initial nylon resin has good high temperature resistance, it is not satisfactory in a low temperature environment, and the toughness of the product drops sharply at low temperature, and low temperature embrittlement occurs. In response to this shortcoming, there is a new development. Through modification, the nylon resin has low temperature resistance. This achievement allows nylon to be easily used in the production of skates and sleds. There are also flame retardant properties for product needs. By adding phosphorus, halogen, etc. to nylon resin to form flame retardant nylon, the flame retardant performance of nylon is enhanced, and it can be more widely and safely used in the manufacturing industry.

In response to various higher requirements and challenges, based on the original excellent foundation, nylon materials can be easily solved by modifying them. Now we have developed reinforced flame-retardant nylon, glass fiber reinforced nylon, cold-resistant super-tough grade PA66, etc. , can meet the needs of various production processes. For example, our EP6020 product is powerful and can meet your various needs for nylon additives.

Of course, from the painful lessons of discarded fishing nets, we should do a good job of recycling these nylon products, instead of only being aware of them after the environmental damage. Do not discard plastic products at will in life. In fact, many nylon products have a long service life. Increasing the use time is not only economical but also environmentally friendly. Secondly, we should do a good job in garbage classification, so as to recycle nylon products. Environmental protection is in every detail of life. With a little thought, environmental protection is not difficult to do.
