1. Polyester cotton
Cotton + polyester refers to the collective name of blended fabrics of polyester and cotton. Generally there are two classification methods of blending and interweaving. The advantage is that it has good wrinkle resistance and is not easy to deform; the disadvantage is that it is easy to fluff, and the fabric feels hard after two dying. The hand feels soft and thick, and it is not easy to be deformed during washing, but the comfort of clothes is slightly worse than that of pure cotton. The 65% cotton t shirts fabric is okay, while the 35% cotton is inferior. It is uncomfortable to wear and easy to pilling.
2. 100% cotton
This is a more commonly used T-shirt fabric, which is very cost-effective. Although it is not like other high-end T-shirt fabrics, which have been processed by a special process, it is 100% pure cotton which still maintains the superior natural characteristics of pure cotton and has good skin-friendliness, good air permeability and good moisture absorption. If you have a small budget and want to wear comfortably, this one is a good choice. Of course, some 100% cottons processed by special processes, such as depilation and softening, are also high-end fabrics.
3. Cotton + Lycra (high-quality spandex), also known as Lycra cotton
With drape and crease recovery ability, this is an elastic cotton fabric implanted with spandex after the weaving process. It feels good, fits snugly, accentuates the figure, is flexible, and is especially suitable for close-fitting. It has been used on men's T-shirts in the past two years. Generally, when making T-shirt fabrics, spandex fabrics can only be treated with light alkali and low temperature mercerizing. This kind of fabric is more suitable for the close-fitting fashion style T-shirt, and the skinny will be worse. In particular, it should be noted that this fabric should be treated with anti-shrinkage.
4. Mercerized cotton
After worsted spinning, high-woven yarn is made, and the mercerized cotton fabric is made of cotton. After singeing, mercerizing and other special processing procedures, the high-quality mercerized yarn is made into smooth, bright, soft and wrinkle-resistant. The high-quality T-shirt fabric made of this raw material not only fully preserves the excellent natural characteristics of raw cotton, but also has a silky luster. The fabric feels soft, absorbs moisture and breathes, and has good elasticity and drape. In addition, it is rich in colors and clothes. Comfortable and casual, it fully reflects the temperament and taste of the dresser. Mercerized cotton and double mercerized cotton fabrics are delicate, and they are different from ordinary clothing in workmanship and printing and embroidery.
5. Double mercerized cotton
Using mercerized yarn made by singeing and mercerizing as raw material, pure cotton double mercerized fabric is a pure cotton product with "double burnt double silk". The CAD computer-aided design system and the CAM computer-aided production system are used to quickly weave the designed T-shirt fabric. After singeing and mercerizing the grey fabric again, after a series of finishings, this high-end T-shirt fabric is produced. The cloth surface has clear texture, novel pattern, bright luster, smooth hand feeling, better than mercerized cotton, but because of two mercerizing finishing, the price is slightly more expensive.
6. Pure cotton fabric
Features: Hydrophilic fiber, strong water absorption and quick drying. A medium-strength fiber has a tensile strength of 3.5 ~ 4.0g/d, but it will increase its strength by 10% when wet, making it a washable fiber. It has good thermal conductivity and no static electricity.
Advantages: a) Absorb sweat and dissipate heat, and the unit price is low; b) Good thermal conductivity and no static electricity; c) Afraid of acid and alkali, it can withstand cleaning with strong detergent.
Disadvantages: a) poor stretch elasticity and easy to wrinkle; b) initial shrinkage when exposed to water, after washing the whole piece of clothing will be wrinkled, shrink or increase in size; c) susceptible to mold and worms Infringement; d) Sweat acid will damage the cotton, reduce the strength of the cotton, and easily turn yellow.
7. CVC
Features: 70% cotton and 30% man-made fiber blended. Advantages: It has the sweat absorption effect of cotton and the appearance of man-made fibers. Disadvantages: poor touch.
8. TC (TC Tetoron, stretch nylon)
Material: Polyester fiber POLYESTER. Advantages: good texture and resistance to sunlight, not easy to deform when washed in water, and good friction resistance. Disadvantages: static electricity and pilling, no sweat.
9. Nylon
Features: Excellent durability, high strength, high friction resistance. Advantages: smooth surface, high gloss and softness. It has excellent resistance to alkalis and chlorine-containing bleaching agents, but strong acids can damage nylon. Easy to wash and dry, and not easy to wrinkle. Not afraid of moths and mildew. Disadvantages: Does not absorb water and is prone to static electricity. The resistance to sunlight is very poor.
