The difference between cotton fabric and polyester fiber fabric (which one is better, cotton fiber or polyester fiber)

Advantages of cotton fabric:

1. Good moisture absorption and breathability, soft hand feel, comfortable to wear;

2. The appearance is simple and full of natural beauty, Soft gloss and good dyeing performance;

3. The alkali resistance and heat resistance are particularly good.

Disadvantages of cotton fabrics:

1. Inelastic and Not stiff, easy to wrinkle;

2. The color fastness is not high and it fades easily;

3. Clothes have poor shape retention and are prone to shrinking and losing shape after washing (shrinkage is usually around 4% to 12%);

4. Particularly afraid of acid. When concentrated sulfuric acid contaminates cotton, the cotton will be burned into holes. When acid (such as vinegar) accidentally gets on clothes on clothes, they should be cleaned in time to prevent acetic acid from causing fatal damage to the clothes.

Polyester fiber(POLYESTER FIBERS), commonly known as “polyester” “. It is a synthetic fiber obtained by spinning polyester formed by the polycondensation of organic dibasic acid and diol. It is referred to as PET fiber and is a polymer compound. Invented in 1941, it is currently the largest variety of synthetic fibers.

Advantages of polyester fiber fabrics ：Polyester fibers have high strength and elasticity, so they are durable, wrinkle-resistant, and Ironing. Its light resistance is better than that of acrylic fiber, and its light resistance is better than that of natural fiber fabrics. In particular, the light resistance of glass fiber is almost equal to that of acrylic fiber. In addition, polyester fabrics have good resistance to various chemicals, are less damaged by acids and alkalis, and are not afraid of mildew or insects.

Disadvantages of polyester fabrics ：

First is polyester The fiber has poor hygroscopicity, low water absorption, poor melt resistance, and is easy to absorb dust, which is due to its texture; then it has poor air permeability and is not easy to breathe; finally, its dyeing performance is poor and it needs to be dispersed at high temperatures. Dyeing with sex dyes.

Advantages of spandex fabric

1. Large stretchability, good shape retention, and no wrinkles;

2. Soft and smooth feel, best elasticity, comfortable to wear, considerate and fit;

3. Acid and alkali resistance, wear resistance, aging resistance;

4. It has good dyeability and is not suitable for fading.

Disadvantages of spandex fabric

span>

1. Poor moisture absorption;

2. Spandex is usually not used alone, but with Blended with other fabrics;

3. Heat resistance Poor sex.

Advantages of nylon fabric:

The wear resistance and elasticity of nylon fabric are the best among fibers, 10 times stronger than cotton fiber Times, it is a wear-resistant fabric.

Among synthetic fibers, nylon is more hygroscopic. The good one, the fabric is more comfortable than polyester.

Moth and corrosion resistance are also one of the advantages of nylon fabrics.

The fabric is a lightweight fabric with good elasticity and recovery properties. It is the first choice material for the production of mountaineering clothing and sportswear.

Disadvantages of nylon fabric:

1. Nylon is easy to deform and will leave wrinkles during use.

2. Nylon fabric has poor light resistance and heat resistance. Do not expose it directly to the sun for a long time during wearing.

3. Nylon fabrics are prone to static electricity and have poor air permeability.
