He aha ka mea i hana ʻia ai ʻo Lyocell?

E like me nā lole ʻē aʻe he nui,lyocellhana ʻia ia mai kahi fiber cellulose.

Hoʻopuka ʻia ia ma ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana i ka pulp lāʻau me kahi mea hoʻoheheʻe NMMO (N-Methylmorpholine N-oxide), kahi mea ʻawahia iki ma mua o nā mea hoʻoheheʻe sodium hydroxide kuʻuna.

Hoʻoheheʻe kēia i ka pulp i loko o kahi wai maopopo, i ka wā e hoʻokomo ʻia ai i loko o nā lua liʻiliʻi i kapa ʻia ʻo spinarettes, e lilo i mau olonā lōʻihi a lahilahi.

A laila pono e holoi ʻia, hoʻomaloʻo ʻia, kāwele ʻia (a i ʻole hoʻokaʻawale ʻia), a ʻokiʻoki! Inā kani huikau kēlā, e noʻonoʻo i kēia ʻano: he lāʻau ka lyocell.

ʻO ka mea maʻamau, hana ʻia ka lyocell mai nā lāʻau eucalyptus. I kekahi mau hihia, hoʻohana ʻia nō hoʻi ka ʻohe, ka ʻoka, a me nā lāʻau birch.

ʻO ke ʻano kēianā lole lyocellhiki ke palaho maoli ʻia!

Pehea ka hoʻomau ʻana o Lyocell?

Lawe kēia iā mākou i kā mākou manaʻo aʻe: no ke ahalyocellmanaʻo ʻia he lole hoʻomau?

ʻĀ, no ka poʻe i ʻike i kekahi mea e pili ana i nā lāʻau eucalyptus, e ʻike ʻoe e ulu koke ana lākou. ʻAʻole hoʻi lākou e koi i ka nui o ka hoʻoinu ʻana, ʻaʻole pono i nā pesticides, a hiki ke ulu ʻia ma ka ʻāina i maikaʻi ʻole i ka ulu ʻana i kekahi mea ʻē aʻe.

I ke ʻano o TENCEL, loaʻa ka pulp wahie mai nā ululāʻau i mālama pono ʻia.

I ke kaʻina hana ʻana, ʻaʻole pono nā kemika ʻawahia loa a me nā metala kaumaha. ʻO kēlā mau mea, hoʻohana hou ʻia i loko o ka mea i kapa ʻia he "kaʻina hana pani ʻia" i ʻole e hoʻolei ʻia i ke kaiapuni.
