Vinylon is used as industrial fiber for the manufacture of tire cord, conveyer, fire hose, fish net, ropes, canvas, filter cloth, and rubber items etc.

Vinylon has stronger tenacity and elongation, better abrasive resistance, stronger hygroscopicity, and better heat preservation, and it has better resistance to chemical corrosion, sunlight, moth, mold, and radiation as well. Vinylon can be spun with cotton or other fibers into knitting goods and other cloth.
