Why do you choose the combination design of pom and pc for this Roman blind?

The Roman blind B&C roll fabric chooses a combination design of pom (polyoxymethylene) and pc (polycarbonate), mainly based on the unique physical and chemical properties of these two materials, as well as the synergistic effect they can produce when combined.
Polyoxymethylene (pom) is a highly crystalline thermoplastic engineering plastic with excellent mechanical strength, hardness, wear resistance and fatigue resistance. This allows POM materials to provide excellent durability and long life when manufacturing curtain rolls, ensuring that Roman blinds are not easily deformed or damaged during frequent use. POM material has excellent mechanical strength. When manufacturing Roman blinds, it can withstand higher tension and pressure and is not prone to breakage or deformation. This strength ensures that Roman blinds can maintain their original shape and structure during frequent use, such as repeated lifting, pulling, etc., providing users with a long-term use experience. In addition to mechanical strength, POM materials are also known for their high hardness. This hardness makes the roll cloth part of the Roman blind more resistant to impact and scratches, keeping its surface smooth and beautiful even in the event of accidental bumps or scratches. This is essential to maintain the beauty of your Roman blinds and extend their lifespan. Since Roman blinds will frequently come into contact with components such as tracks and handles during use, the wear resistance of the material is of great significance to extending the service life of the curtains. The wear-resistant performance of POM material allows Roman blinds to maintain their original functions and appearance after long-term use, reducing the frequency of replacement and maintenance. POM materials also have good fatigue resistance. During repeated stretching and compression, POM materials can maintain their original elasticity and performance and are not prone to fatigue fracture. This is especially important for curtains such as Roman blinds that require frequent lifting and lowering, ensuring the stability and reliability of the curtains.
The application of polycarbonate (PC) in curtain materials is also crucial. It is a colorless and transparent thermoplastic material with excellent physical properties. PC material is known for its excellent impact resistance, which allows it to maintain its integrity and not easily break or deform even when subjected to accidental impact or pressure. This is especially critical for curtains, which may be subject to various external impacts during daily use, such as wind pressure when windows are opened, collisions when children play, etc. The impact resistance of PC material ensures that Roman blinds can still maintain their beauty and functionality under these conditions. In addition, PC materials also have excellent heat resistance. In high-temperature environments, many materials will deform, discolor, or degrade in performance, but PC materials can maintain their stability over a wide temperature range. This allows the Roman blinds to maintain their original shape and color without being affected by temperature when used in hot seasons or on windows exposed to direct sunlight.
When POM is used in combination with PC, the two materials can complement each other and achieve better performance. The high hardness and wear resistance of POM provide a strong frame and support for Roman blinds, making them less likely to deform or be damaged during frequent use. The impact resistance and heat resistance of PC further enhance the durability and stability of the curtains, allowing them to maintain their original performance and appearance in various environments. In addition, the combination of POM and PC also brings other advantages. Since both materials have a low friction coefficient and good sliding properties, Roman blinds are smoother when raised, lowered and pulled, reducing the generation of noise. This gives users a more comfortable and quieter experience.
To sum up, polycarbonate (PC), as a colorless and transparent thermoplastic material, plays an important role in the manufacture of Roman blinds. Its excellent impact resistance, heat resistance and high transparency bring outstanding performance and aesthetic value to curtains. Combined with POM materials, Roman blinds are not only durable, beautiful and comfortable, but also more cost-effective and practical.
