Pure cotton fabric refers to a type of fabric primarily made from natural cotton as the main raw material, processed through specific manufacturing techniques. This fabric contains up to 70% cotton, with a small amount of cotton-like chemical fiber blended yarn, offering superior comfort compared to common products like polyester-cotton or blended fabrics. Shaanxi pure cotton fabric can be further categorized into different types such as plain weave, twill, and satin, and can also be classified based on printing and dyeing techniques into solid color, bleached, dyed, and printed fabrics, combining both practicality and decorative appeal. Compared to fabrics made from other materials, Shaanxi pure cotton fabric exhibits superior moisture absorption, breathability, and thermal insulation. Pure cotton products feature a soft luster and a plush, comfortable texture. However, due to the characteristics of textile processing and pure cotton material, there may be a slight stiffness, lacking extreme smoothness, which serves as a key indicator for identifying whether the fabric is pure cotton. Despite its numerous advantages, Shaanxi pure cotton fabric also has certain drawbacks, such as a tendency to wrinkle easily during use and difficulty in recovery, which can affect the fabric's decorative effect.
Pure Cotton Fabric Identification:
1. Pure cotton fabric from Shaanxi may have a small amount of impurities and cotton shells on its surface, resulting in relatively softer smoothness, while man-made cotton fabric does not exhibit this phenomenon. The surface of man-made cotton fabric is highly smooth and free of impurities, which creates a tactile difference between the two types. Fabrics that feel slightly rough to the touch are generally of higher quality pure cotton.
2. Yarn evenness is a key factor in determining whether the fabric is pure cotton. The yarn of Shaanxi pure cotton fabric often exhibits noticeable flaws, while rayon fabric appears extremely uniform and neat.
3. Rayon fabric boasts high luster and vibrant colors, a decorative effect difficult to achieve with pure cotton, making it a key indicator for distinguishing between the two.
4. Although pure cotton fabric from Shaanxi is prone to wrinkling, compared to rayon fabric, both the quantity and severity of wrinkles are less pronounced.
