What are the advantages and disadvantages of ramie?

Advantages: Ramie fiber is slender, and its length is several times that of cotton fiber. After ramie is made into cloth, its cloth surface will have a good luster and feel a little rough. Secondly, the gap between ramie fibers is large, so ramie fabric will have the characteristics of super air permeability and moisture dissipation, which is of course the unique property of ramie fibers, so ramie, like flax, is also very suitable for making summer clothes.

Disadvantages: The main disadvantage of ramie cloth is that the cloth is rough, especially when the newly bought ramie clothes are put on. In addition, ramie cloth is basically inelastic, so it is not suitable for making clothes that need elasticity, such as sportswear.

Matters needing attention in ramie fabric maintenance

The ramie cloth is soaked in water for about 10 minutes, and you can start washing clothes when you go bankrupt. The material of ramie fabric itself is the reason, so be careful not to use hard nylon brush when washing. Try to scrub gently with your hands, otherwise it will damage ramie fabric.

Washing clothes should be done once or twice. Be very particular when washing with water next time. The water temperature for washing ramie fabric is the same as that in the first step, not too high. If the temperature is too high, the fibers of ramie fabric are easy to burn out. After that, it is best to filter it with clear water for about two times and clean it, which can fully wash off the unwashed dirt of ramie cloth.
