Preface
In daily life, each item of "clothing, food, housing and transportation" is very important, especially the word "clothing" that bears the brunt of the word, and wearing decent and comfortable clothes can add a lot of color to one's image.
In the choice of "clothes", the doorway is bigger.
The market is flooded with a variety of different forms of clothing to meet the needs of different groups of people.
Now that it's summer, what do you value most when buying a T-shirt?
More fashionable people think that the most important thing is to look good, and people who pay attention to comfort and health will think that the material of the clothes is the most important.
We all know that cotton clothes absorb sweat well, and clothes made of this material will be more comfortable to wear.
But there is a blind spot that everyone is very easy to ignore, that is, whether the material of "pure cotton" and "cotton" is the same?
Many of us will confuse "pure cotton" and "pure cotton", thinking that the two materials are just called differently, but the texture should be the same, and in the final analysis, they are all cotton products.
Actually, it's not, I also found out the truth of these two materials after I was fooled, and they are not the same thing at all, which is too pitiful!
April 15, 2024 - After suffering a loss, I realized that "pure cotton" and "pure cotton" are not the same thing, what is the difference between them?
How to distinguish between pure cotton and cotton
First of all, we need to know that cotton is a product made of cotton, and the cotton content of this kind of product is about 100%.
The word "whole" alone is enough to sum it up, indicating that this product does not contain any other material except cotton.
Baidu Encyclopedia - cotton
When we choose clothes, we sometimes look at the label on the clothes, for the cotton shown on the label, as long as it is a regular manufacturer of clothes, it is absolutely 100% cotton.
But pure cotton is different, it may be 95% cotton, or 75% cotton, the state stipulates that 75% cotton to 95% cotton can be called pure cotton, of course, it may also be 100% cotton, but this probability is relatively small.
Baidu Encyclopedia - pure cotton fabric
Because a small amount of spandex will be added to the cotton fabric, including some decorative lace, these special decorations are difficult to make of cotton, and the structure of these overall fabrics finally achieves the fabric characteristics of pure cotton products.
Because of the addition of other chemical materials, the texture of these materials is hard, and the mixing of the two will affect the softness and hardness of cotton products.
Even so, it does not mean that pure cotton products are bad, for other chemical fiber products, the skin-friendliness of pure cotton is much better.
Therefore, compared with the two, the production process of cotton is more test than that of pure cotton, after all, there is only one material, and a little carelessness will make mistakes, and it is necessary to ensure that cotton products can not be mixed with other yarns in all production processes.
The price of cotton will naturally be a little more expensive, always believe that you get what you pay for, and the intimate clothing that is in close contact with the skin is best to choose skin-friendly, after all, health is priceless.
After understanding the material difference between cotton and cotton, everyone is puzzled by what are the most significant characteristics of these two materials?
Advantages and disadvantages of pure cotton and cotton material
In fact, there is not much essential difference between pure cotton and pure cotton, the advantages of these two materials are almost the same, they can be regarded as healthy fabrics close to the skin, and the breathability and sweat absorption performance are very good.
The real difference is first of all the feel, because cotton products are added with other fibers, so when touched by hand, they may be slightly rough or even a little hard.
This phenomenon will not occur with cotton, because the product is all made of cotton fibers, so when it comes into contact with the skin, it will make the material feel delicate and smooth, and it will feel soft to the touch.
Therefore, when wearing cotton clothes, because of its soft feel, it will not cause irritation to the skin, because its fabric is soft, and the breathability will be better, so that the contact between the skin and the clothing can maintain a refreshing and non-stuffy effect.
However, the disadvantages of cotton are also very obvious, that is, it will be easier to shrink than pure cotton, whether it is clothes or bed sheets and quilt covers and other products, the size is suitable when you buy it back, but after cleaning the water, when you use it, you will find that the size has become smaller.
If you buy cotton clothes, it is best to choose a size larger when buying, especially those slim clothes, otherwise once washed and shrunk, because the clothes are shrunk and cannot be worn, the money is not spent in vain?
Of course, if it is a loose and casual cotton clothes, it is better not to be too large, because the product itself still has enough room for shrinkage, even if it becomes a little smaller, it will not affect the wear.
Cotton products are more prone to wrinkles, because the small molecules of cotton fibers are very fragile themselves, and they will wrinkle if they are not dried in time after washing, which will affect the appearance.
The solution is also very simple, heat it with an iron, you can break the cotton molecules, make them displace, and then they will become smooth again.
Cotton products also have a very obvious disadvantage is easy pilling, most of the time we know that knitted products will pill after a period of use, that is because knitwear will bulge in the process of rubbing, and then cause pilling.
Like cotton products, the surface will pill after being used for a long time, but this phenomenon does not affect the wear, but it will decline in terms of aesthetics.
The advantage of pure cotton products is that the hygroscopic performance is slightly better, and it has a good absorption effect on the sweat produced by the body, so as to achieve the purpose of dry skin.
The most annoying thing about cotton fabrics is that they are easy to fade, especially if they are soaked in sweat for a long time, and the parts of the body that often sweat will fade after a period of time, affecting the overall aesthetics of the clothes.
If there are dark cotton products at home, they must be washed separately from other colors of clothes when they are washed for the first time.
I hope you must pay attention to this when washing clothes, if it is really because one piece of clothing will be the original color of other clothes, it is really worth the loss.
Pure cotton products also have an advantage, because they contain other spandex and other materials, the elasticity will be better than that of cotton, and it is not easy to wrinkle during use.
Having said so much, all in all, the advantages and disadvantages of cotton products and cotton products are not very different, and everyone should choose the right product according to their usual living habits when buying clothes and bedding.
epilogue
There are often some unscrupulous merchants who like to play "word games" to induce consumers, while saying that their products are all cotton, and they are absolutely good fabrics; On the other hand, he said that his products will not wrinkle at all.
When you hear these words, you can walk away, this definitely involves false publicity, don't be stupidly deceived by the business, let alone spend cotton money, buy pure cotton products, this is a bit "wronged".
Therefore, when you understand the fabric characteristics of cotton products and cotton products, you can distinguish them when you buy them to avoid bad misleading merchants.
