1. Fabrics are mainly divided into: non-textile fabrics and textile fabrics. From another dimension, they are divided into natural fabrics and non-natural fabrics. From a finer dimension:
natural
A. Plant fibers, such as cotton, hemp and fruit fibers
b, animal fibers, such as wool, wool, silk
c. Mineral fibers, such as asbestos
unnatural
a. Recycled fibers, such as viscose, acetate, tencel, Modal, Lessel, bamboo fiber, etc
b, synthetic fibers, such as: nylon, polyester, acrylic, spandex, Lycra, etc
c, inorganic fiber, such as: glass fiber, metal fiber, etc
(For the convenience of understanding the above commodity names and category names mixed phenomenon)
2. From the point of view of textile technology:
Woven: the fabric structure is stable, no elasticity (except the fabric with elastic fiber), the cloth surface is smooth, solid and durable, the appearance is crisp and loose, simply speaking, it is not close, hanging bad scratch can not be seen
Knitting: The fabric is elastic, the cloth surface feels soft, comfortable, breathable and easy to come off. Simply put, it is bigger and bigger. Hang a broken pull a hole.
Personally think the grade is :(does not distinguish printing and dyeing process 1)
Low-grade fabric: common chemical fiber
Ordinary fabric: general cotton, hemp.
Intermediate fabrics: Lycra, Tencel and other intermediate chemical fiber fabrics and natural and blended, tussah silk, long staple cotton, ordinary leather, etc
High-grade fabrics: wool, mulberry silk, (fabric), calfskin, lambskin and other high-quality leather, fox skin and other ordinary fur
Top fabric: sheep (camel wool), heavy mulberry silk fabric, precious leather, mink and other high-grade fur
------------------
Personal summary of the shortcomings of some ordinary fabrics:
Cotton: ordinary long staple cotton below, after repeated washing will harden
Colored cotton: Only brown and green
Hemp: no wrinkle, easy to fade, easy to shrink mildew
Ordinary silk: easy to shrink, no acid resistance, sun resistant
Wool (fleece: susceptible to insects.
Artificial cotton: easy to stick
Modal: Pilling and wrinkling
Tess: It hardens in heat and humidity
Ice silk: easy to remove silk, hardening
Bamboo fiber: fragile
------------------
3, from the consumer and commercial point of view, the difference between good fabric and ordinary fabric is not so obvious, and even ordinary fabric clothes may sell more expensive than good fabric. But in the traditional luxury industry, anything that isn't natural is off the table. Unless it is 100% natural fiber fabric, any fabric with chemical fiber is not very good.
So why add 2% of other chemical fiber to pure cotton fabric? It is to make up for some shortcomings of pure cotton fabric. The advantage is that it can be enjoyed at a low price. It can either achieve almost 80% of the feeling of high-quality fabrics, or solve some small problems of daily wear.
The future is all about blending, but that's just business, not taste.
4, the price of fabric weaving can not be from a single fabric, such as a designer if the leather and silk made splice, then the two fabrics even if the original are not expensive, together is very expensive, because the physical characteristics of the two fabrics are completely different, how to blend it is a very high knowledge.
