How to identify the advantages and disadvantages of home textile products

Bedding generally uses pure cotton, polyester cotton, yarn-dyed cotton as the fabric, all kinds of fabrics have their own characteristics, the price is not the same, industry experts introduce the characteristics of various fabrics and identification methods.

Material 1 cotton is very soft

Pure cotton feels good, comfortable to use, easy to dye, rich in flower variety, soft and warm, strong hygroscopicity, washable, less static, is widely used in bedding; but easy to wrinkle, easy to shrink, poor elasticity, It is resistant to acid and alkali, and should not be treated for a long time at temperatures above 100 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it is best to spray wet cotton products when ironing. If possible, use a steam iron to iron the product after each use, the effect will be better.

Material 2 Yarn-dyed cotton shrinks easily

Yarn-dyed cotton is a kind of pure cotton fabric, which is woven with warp and weft yarns of different colors. Due to the first dyeing and weaving, the dye has strong penetrability and good dyeing fastness, and the multi-color yarn fabric has strong three-dimensional effect and unique style, and the bedding is mostly characterized by a strip pattern. It has the characteristics of a cotton fabric, but usually has a greater shrinkage.

Material 3 Jacquard cotton is thicker

The high-density and high-density jacquard cotton fabric has a particularly high density of warp and weft, and the weaving method is rich. Therefore, the fabric has a thick hand feeling, good durability and high surface smoothness, and is a relatively advanced one in cotton fabrics.

Material 4 Polyester cotton is affordable

Polyester/cotton brand products generally use 65% polyester, 35% cotton ratio polyester/cotton fabric, and polyester cotton is divided into plain and twill. The plain polyester cotton fabric is thin, the strength and wear resistance are very good, the shrinkage rate is very small, the appearance of the product is not easy to sample, and the price is good, the durability is good, but the comfort fit is not as good as pure cotton. In addition, because polyester is not easy to dye, polyester/cotton fabrics are mostly light and light, which is more suitable for spring and summer. Twill polyester is usually denser than plain weave, so it looks dense and thick, and its surface gloss and feel are better than plain weave.

Material 5 Silk is the smoothest

The silk looks gorgeous and rich, has natural soft light and glitter effect, feels comfortable, high strength, elasticity and moisture absorption is better than cotton, but it is easy to be dirty, and the heat resistance to strong sunlight is worse than cotton. The cross section of the fiber is a unique triangle, and the reflection of light after partial moisture absorption changes, which is easy to form water stains and is difficult to eliminate, so the silk fabric should be white cloth when ironing.

Practical method

Buy bedding and carefully identify the pros and cons

Experts remind you to carefully identify the advantages and disadvantages when purchasing bedding, you can pay attention to the following aspects.

Method 1 Check the logo to see the package

The instructions for use of the product may be in the form of tags, labels, package instructions, instructions for use, etc., and may be used one or more at the same time. The contents must indicate: the name and address of the manufacturer, the name of the product, the model number, the composition of the raw materials used, and Content, washing method, execution standard, quality grade, quality certificate, etc., the content of different description forms should be consistent, and the specifications and models, the ingredients and content of raw materials, and the washing method must be durable labels.

Method 2 Select the famous product to see the manufacturer

Consumers should try to buy regular manufacturers' products in large shopping malls and supermarkets. The products of well-known manufacturers have better guarantees in terms of product quality.

Method 3 Check the work and watch the work

At present, the grades of bedding on the market are different, the price difference is large, and the gap between work and quality is also large. The products with better quality are even and even, the texture is fine, the printing is clear, the luster is smooth, and the sewing is even and even. If the product surface is uneven, the texture is sparse, the pattern is disordered, and the sewing is rough, the quality is difficult to guarantee, and the dimensional change rate and dyeing fastness of the washing may also exceed the standard.

Method 4 Smell the taste and pick

If the product emits a pungent odor, there may be residual formaldehyde, it is best not to buy. When choosing a color, it is advisable to purchase a light color, so that the risk of formaldehyde and dyeing fastness is lower. In addition, you should be cautious when purchasing products that are anti-shrinkage, anti-wrinkle, soft, flat and so on. If you have a "taste", you should purchase it carefully.
