Textile and clothing technology Q&A

05. Question: What is high-count cotton?
Answer: The count here represents the fineness of the cotton yarn. The higher the British count of the cotton yarn, the finer the yarn, the better the quality of the cotton required, and the more expensive the price. It is generally considered that yarn with a count of 40 or more is considered to have a higher count. Yarn. Fabric density is divided into warp density and weft density. Generally, the finer the yarn count, the greater the density possible, so high density is often based on high count. It is customary to regard warp density and weft density as the basis. If the number adds up to about 300, it is called high-density cotton texture.30 pieces, 40 pieces, 60 pieces, etc. For example, 30 pieces of 78*65 means that the latitude and longitude density in 1 square centimeter is 143 (78+65). 40 pieces of 220*90 means that the latitude and longitude density in 1 square centimeter is 200 (220+90). The duvet covers of high-end bedding such as wool quilts, down quilts, etc. generally use 40-count 133*72 fabric to prevent lint from running away.

06. Question: What is voile?
Answer: Voile yarn is also called glass yarn. It is a thin and transparent fabric woven with plain weave. Its characteristic is that the warp and weft are made of fine combed strong twisted yarn, and the warp and weft density in the fabric is relatively small. “Fine” and “thin”, coupled with strong twisting, make the fabric thin and transparent. All raw materials include pure cotton and polyester cotton. The yarns are either single yarns or strands. Depending on the processing, glass yarns include dyed glass yarn, bleached glass yarn, printed glass yarn, yarn-dyed jacquard glass yarn, etc. The glass yarn fabric has a thin texture and a refreshing feel. , clear holes, transparent and breathable

07. Question: What is the difference between cotton plain weave and cotton yarn card?
Answer: Plain weave is the simplest type of three-origin weave, consisting of warp and weft yarns interlaced up and down; yarn card is a type of khaki, which is a twill fabric. The varieties are divided into warp and weft yarns according to the used ones. Thread card (warp and weft yarns are both strands), half-line card (warp strands, weft single yarn), yarn card (warp and weft are single yarn), the line card is woven with 2/2 right bias weave, front and back twill. The texture is very obvious, also known as double-sided card; half-line card is woven with 3/1 right bias weave, and gauze card is woven with 3/1 left-bias weave. Both half-line card and gauze card are used for single-sided card. The raw materials are mainly pure cotton, polyester cotton, etc. This kind of fabric is tight and thick, with obvious texture, strong and durable.

08. Question: What is peach skin?
Answer: Peach skin products are imitation leather fabrics developed after artificial suede products. It is a thin fabric composed of ultrafine fibers. After fine sanding and finishing during dyeing and finishing, the fabric becomes The surface is closely covered with short velvet of about 0.2 mm, just like the surface of a peach, with a novel and elegant appearance. Because of its appearance and comfortable feel, this type of fabric is named peach skin. Therefore, the grinding finish is also called “peach skin finishing”, which is the same as the grinding finish in artificial suede products in the past. It was also called “suede finishing” when it was popular

Peach skin is a novel thin fleece fabric of microfiber fabric. It is derived from artificial suede. Since it does not undergo polyurethane wet processing, the texture is softer and its velvet is shorter and the surface is softer. Almost no visible hair and skin But it can be perceived, and the feel and appearance of peach skin are softer and more elegant. Compared with artificial suede, it gives consumers a sense of novelty and suits people’s curious consumer psychology, so it quickly became popular in the international market. .
Peach skin type The formation of the unique style of fabrics can be said to be based on ultra-fine denier, high-density thin fabrics, and sanding finishing is the key to the product.
The main factors that affect the sanding effect of fabrics are: selection of sandpaper mesh, control of grinding roller speed, contact area between grinding roller and fabric, tension on fabric, number of sanding times, grinding roller speed and operating speed The balance, the moisture content of the fabric, the treatment after grinding and the selection of grinding equipment, etc.
Peach skin products can be used as fabrics for clothing (jackets, dresses, etc.), as well as bags, shoes, hats, etc.Ideal material for furniture upholstery.
