From October 16th to 17th, the 2024 International Advanced Fiber Materials Innovation Conference, themed "Improving Quality with Innovation and Empowering with Potential," was grandly held in Shengze, Wujiang, Suzhou. The conference was guided by the China National Textile and Apparel Council (CNTAC), hosted by the Productivity Promotion Department of CNTAC, and jointly organized by the China Textile Information Center and the Textile Product Development Center.

At the conference, the launch event of "Bio-based Antimicrobial and Odor-Suppressing Nylon" was successfully held. Fujian Eversun Jinjiang Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as " EVERSUN JINJIANG") and Nanjing Bioserica Era Antimicrobial Materials Technology Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as " Bioserica Era ") jointly signed a strategic cooperation agreement for "Bio-based Antimicrobial and Odor-Suppressing Nylon," driven by innovation. This marks the beginning of a joint effort to promote the industry diffusion and industrial transformation of bio-based antimicrobial material innovations, creating a new chapter in the bio-based antimicrobial field of the industry.

At the event,Wang Jiangen, General Manager of EVERSUN JINJIANG, andZhou Guomin , Chairman of Nanjing Tianan Polymer Technology Group Co., Ltd., signed the cooperation agreement on behalf of their respective companies. Leaders including Sun Ruizhe, President of CNTAC, and Yan Yan, Vice President of CNTAC and Secretary-General of the China Textile Information Center, attended and witnessed the signing ceremony.

Meanwhile, Bioserica Era and EVERSUN JINJIANG showcased a series of "Bio-based Antimicrobial and Odor-Suppressing Nylon" products at the static exhibition area of the conference. The exhibited products ranged from OPHB bio-based antimicrobial dope, antimicrobial and odor-suppressing nylon filaments, antimicrobial and odor-suppressing nylon yarns, antimicrobial and odor-suppressing nylon fabrics to end-user products such as women's stockings, yoga pants, sun-protective clothing, and sun-protective masks. This comprehensive display highlighted the outstanding advantages and broad development and application prospects of "Bio-based Antimicrobial and Odor-Suppressing Nylon."

The signing is based on the application demands of the textile market and the needs for technological innovation. The agreement clarifies that both parties will use Bioserica Era's innovative O-F technology to combine OPHB bio-based antimicrobial dope with nylon filaments. They will jointly develop "Bio-based Antimicrobial and Odor-Suppressing Nylon" with superior quality and higher cost-effectiveness. EVERSUN JINJIANG, with its rich experience in nylon production and strong market influence, has always been at the forefront of product innovation and quality control, providing strong support for the market promotion and application of Bioserica Pro® fibers. Through this cooperation, both parties will optimize the production process of antimicrobial nylon by sharing resources and complementing each other's strengths, thereby improving product quality and performance and promoting the healthy development of bio-based antimicrobial and odor-suppressing nylon.

On the 17th, at the conference, Jin Zhixue, a senior engineer in technology research and development at EVERSUN JINJIANG, delivered a speech titled "Technical Breakthroughs and Product Innovation in New Functional Fiber Materials" on the collaborative efforts between EVERSUN JINJIANG's nylon production technology and Bioserica Era's bio-based antimicrobial technology. He provided a detailed introduction to the development background, technological innovation, product principles, functional characteristics, and future development prospects of non-leaching antimicrobial and odor-suppressing nylon fibers. He also pointed out the development trend of functional fibers in the new era, from high performance to customized functions, to functional fashion, and finally to eco-functionalization. This provides innovative, comprehensive, and detailed references and suggestions for the development of antimicrobial textile apparel.

In the future, Bioserica Era and EVERSUN JINJIANG will continue to deepen their cooperation and jointly promote the research and application of bio-based antimicrobial and odor-suppressing nylon. It is believed that with the joint efforts of both parties, bio-based antimicrobial and odor-suppressing nylon will become an emerging force in the textile industry, offering the market and consumers healthier and more environmentally friendly choices in antimicrobial textiles.
EVERSUN JINJIANG, as a large-scale high-tech enterprise integrating chemical engineering, chemical fiber, and new materials, owns several physical enterprises such as Yongrong Technology, Jingfeng Technology, and XinChuang Jinjiang Industry. The company has integrated the upstream and downstream industrial chain from "benzene - caprolactam - nylon chips - nylon fiber." It has ranked first in the production of civilian nylon filaments for six consecutive years. The company has successively received honors such as "Asia's 500 Most Valuable Brands," "China's Well-known Trademark," "National Torch Plan Key High-tech Enterprise," "Fujian Province's First Batch of 50 Billion-yuan Enterprises," "Fujian Province's Top 100 Key Industrial Enterprises," "National Enterprise Technology Center," and "National Model Enterprise for Technological Innovation."
Bioserica Era, as a national high-tech enterprise and the China National Textile and Apparel Council's bio-based antimicrobial product development base, is the global pioneer in "0 metal ion non-leaching bio-based antimicrobial agents" and "0 metal ion non-leaching bio-based antimicrobial and odor-suppressing original yarn." Its independently developed Bioserica Pro® fibers, with their excellent antimicrobial and odor-suppressing performance and green, healthy characteristics, have now formed a Bioserica Pro® application system integrating "antimicrobial and odor-suppressing fibers, yarns, fabrics, and end-user products." It occupies a solid market position in the field of bio-based antimicrobial materials.
