Neoprene Material Dual Jersey CR Composite High Elongation Rapid Recovery for

Product Specification

Product name: Dual‑Jersey CR Neoprene (Super‑Stretch Lining on Both Sides) — Core Material for Wetsuits, Springsuits, and Performance Watersports Apparel

Overview:
A premium, production‑ready neoprene composite using true CR (chloroprene) closed‑cell foam laminated with elastic jerseys on both faces. The dual‑jersey construction delivers a supple hand, high 4‑way stretch, and long service life while preserving the buoyancy, insulation, and low water uptake inherent to CR. Engineered for full wetsuits, springsuits, tops, shorty suits, and kids’ surfwear, as well as paddle, kite, and tri cross‑over pieces that require comfort and durability.

Why it stands out:

• Genuine CR core: Better compression‑set resistance, elasticity, and temperature stability than SBR or blends.
• Super‑stretch inside and out: Nylon/spandex jerseys chosen for high elongation, rapid recovery, and abrasion resistance against wax, sand, and Velcro.
• Consistent manufacturing: Tight thickness tolerance, uniform cell structure, clean lamination—ideal for accurate cutting, panel matching, and seam strength.
• Balanced performance: Warmth, flexibility, and durability tuned by foam density, jersey weight, and adhesive system.
• Broad customization: Thickness, density, lining type, color/print, and coatings can be tailored by zone or product line.

Recommended applications:

• Surf/dive wetsuits: fulls, spring suits, short john/jane, tops, and long‑john paired with jackets
• Paddle sports: SUP, wind/kite surf, kayak tops and pants
• Tri/training: warm‑water suits and practice skins
• Youth/junior wetsuits requiring comfort and easy don/doff
• Accessories: hoods, gloves, booties, and reinforcement panels

Technical specifications (typical, customizable):

• Polymer/foam: CR neoprene, closed‑cell
• Thickness options: 1.0 / 1.5 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 mm; thicker on request
• Lining (Face A & B): Super‑stretch nylon/spandex jersey (single or different jerseys per side)
• Jersey weights: 160–240 g/m² common; ultra‑stretch/light options available
• Foam density: ~120–180 kg/m³ depending on warmth, buoyancy, and durability targets
• Hardness: Shore 00 approx. 3–8 (soft to medium‑soft grades)
• Stretch & recovery: High 4‑way with low hysteresis; supports athletic range of motion
• Compression set: Low; maintains thickness after repeated squeeze under suit pressure
• Water behavior: Low absorption; quick‑dry jerseys optional; hydrophobic finishes available
• Width: 110–140 cm standard; slit‑to‑width service for efficient nesting
• Colors/prints: Solid blacks/grays standard; Pantone colors, space‑dye, mélange, sublimation‑ready whites, and allover graphics available
• Processing methods: Die/CNC cutting, solvent or water‑based contact cement bonding, blind‑stitch, flatlock (for breathable seams), and seam taping
• Compliance: RoHS/REACH statements; AZO‑free dyes; optional PAH/DMFa/odor testing
• Packaging: Rolled with PE sleeve and separator paper; export cartons; batch traceability
• MOQ/Lead time: Based on thickness, jersey, and colorway; sampling supported

Design guidance for OEMs:

• Zonal engineering:
  • Shoulders/underarms: choose thinner foam or ultra‑stretch jerseys to reduce paddling fatigue.
  • Torso/seat/knees: slightly higher density or thicker foam to improve warmth and abrasion life.
• Seam planning:
  • Use blind‑stitch + glue for watertight surf/dive suits; tape major seams for cold‑water builds.
  • Add bartacks at stress points (crotch, armpit ends, zip bases).
• Adhesion tips:
  • Lightly roughen bond margins on jersey if coated; use compatible neoprene cements and proper open time/pressure.
• Printing/branding:
  • For vibrant graphics, select white sublimation‑ready jersey, then sublimate before cutting; colorfast, chlorine‑resistant inks recommended.
• Pattern and fit:
  • Pre‑curve elbows/knees and use multi‑panel ergonomics for mobility; maintain grain alignment of jerseys to match stretch direction.
• Thermal upgrades:
  • Add titanium/graphite reflective coating, plush/brushed thermal pile, or infrared yarn jerseys on the lining side for colder water.
• Durability upgrades:
  • Use abrasion knits or PU micro‑dot coatings at knees/seat; consider stretch tape over interior seams for comfort.

Care instructions (for finished suits):

• Rinse thoroughly after salt or chlorine; mild detergent only
• Dry in shade, inside‑out first, then outside‑out; avoid high‑heat tumble or direct sun exposure
• Store flat or loosely rolled; do not crease sharply; keep away from solvents and sharp/abrasive surfaces
• Close hook‑and‑loop tabs during washing/storage to prevent snagging

Image notes:

• The sample shows a dual‑jersey black CR sheet with fine, even cell structure and smooth textile faces, indicating stable lamination and consistent density—ideal for multi‑panel wetsuits like the one pictured with color‑blocked sleeves and printed side panels.

• Target thickness(es), foam density preference, and width
• Lining selection per side (jersey type, color, print method)
• End use and temperature range (surf, dive, SUP; warm vs. cold water)
• Expected monthly/annual volume and packing/testing requirements (e.g., REACH, colorfastness to chlorinated water)
