Umbala wolu hlobo lwelaphu unokwenziwa ngokwezifiso njengoko ufuna.Yenziwe nge-65% yepolyester kunye ne-35% yomqhaphu.
Indawo yokunyibilika yepolyester ikufutshane naleyo yepolyamide, ukusuka kuma-250 ukuya kuma-300°C.Iintsinga zepolyester zicutheka edangatyeni kwaye zinyibilike, zishiya intsalela emnyama eqinile.Ilaphu litshiswa livumba elinamandla nelinukayo.Ukusetwa kobushushu kwiintsinga zepolyester, akuzinzisi nje ubukhulu kunye nokumila kodwa kwandisa ukuxhathisa imibimbi kwiintsinga.Iintsinga zomqhaphu ziintsinga zendalo ezingenanto;zithambile, zipholile, zaziwa ngokuba ziintsinga eziphefumlayo kwaye ziyafunxa.Iintsinga zomqhaphu zinokuwagcina amanzi amaxesha angama-24-27 ubunzima bawo.Zomelele, zifunxa idayi kwaye ziyakwazi ukumelana nokunxitywa kwe-abrasion kunye nobushushu obuphezulu.Ngelizwi elinye, umqhaphu ukhululekile.Ekubeni i-cotton imibimbi, ukuxuba kunye ne-polyester okanye ukusebenzisa ukugqiba okusisigxina kunika iimpawu ezifanelekileyo kwiingubo zekotoni.Iintsinga zomqhaphu zihlala zidityaniswa nezinye iintsinga ezifana nenayiloni, ilinen, uboya, kunye nepolyester, ukuphumeza ezona mpawu zibalaseleyo zosinga ngalunye.
