What is the Difference Between Nylon Lanyard and Polyester Lanyard?

The difference between nylon and polyester materials can be found simply by the burning method: the polyester lanyard emits very strong black smoke, and the residue after burning is easy to crush. Besides, the polyester lanyard is easy to ignite, and it melts when it burns with black smoke, yellow flame, and aromatic odour, and the ashes after burning are dark brown lumps, which can be crushed with fingers. In terms of hand feel: Polyester has a rough hand feel, and there are obvious traces after scraping it with fingers.

The nylon lanyard burns and emits white smoke. It quickly curls and melts into a white gel near the flame. It melts and drops and foams in the flame. There is no flame when burning. It is difficult to continue burning when it is away from the flame, and it will emit an unpleasant smell. After the burning, the residue is light brown after cooling and not easy to be crushed. The nylon lanyard feels relatively smooth, and there is no trace after scratching it with your fingers. To order bulk promotional items, please call YP Promotion first.
