How to tell what fabric clothes are made of?

1. The simple method to identify the composition of clothing fabric is combustion method. The practice is to draw out a wisp of cloth yarn containing warp and weft at the seam edge of the garment and ignite it with fire;

Observe the state of the burning flame, smell the burnt cloth yarn, and look at the residue after burning, so as to judge whether it is consistent with the fabric composition marked on the clothing durability label, so as to distinguish the authenticity of the fabric composition.

2. Sensory method

1) pure cotton cloth: the cloth surface is soft in luster, soft to the touch, poor in elasticity and easy to wrinkle. When you pinch the cloth by hand and loosen it, you can see obvious wrinkles, and the wrinkles are not easy to recover. Pull out several warp and weft yarns from the edge of the cloth and twist them. The lengths of the fibers are different.

2) Viscose cotton cloth (including rayon and fiber-rich cloth): the cloth surface is soft and bright, bright in color, smooth and flat, soft to the touch and poor in elasticity. When you pinch the cloth by hand and loosen it, you can see obvious creases, and the creases are not easy to recover.

3) Polyester cotton cloth: the luster is brighter than pure cotton cloth, the cloth surface is flat, clean and free of yarn ends and impurities. It feels smooth and crisp, and its elasticity is better than pure cotton. When the cloth is loosened by hand, the crease is not obvious and easy to recover.

4) Pure wool worsted fabric: the surface of the fabric is smooth and bright, and the texture is fine and clear. Soft and natural luster, pure color. Soft and elastic. Pinch the tweed with your hand to loosen it, the crease is not obvious, and it will soon return to its original state. Most yarns are double-stranded.

5) Pure wool woolen cloth: the woolen cloth is full and the texture is firm and thick. There are fine hairs on the surface, and the texture is generally not exposed. Feel warm, plump and elastic. Most yarns are coarse count single yarns.

6) Wool-polyester blended woolen fabric: the appearance is pure wool fabric style. Tweed is clear, flat and smooth, not as soft as pure wool fabric, but has a stiff and rough feeling, and its elasticity is higher than all wool and wool bonded wool fabrics. Tighten tweed by hand and then loosen it, and the crease will soon return to its original state.

7) Wool and wool blended woolen fabrics: mostly worsted. Strong sense of wool, wool style and warmth. Elasticity is not as good as wool polyester.

8) Wool-nylon blended wool fabric: the wool fabric has smooth surface, strong wool feeling, waxy luster and stiff hand feel. When the woolen cloth is loosened by hand, there will be obvious creases, and it can be slowly restored to its original state.

9) Real Silk: Silk has smooth and clean surface, soft luster and bright and pure color. Smooth and soft to the touch, light and elegant in appearance. When the silk surface is dry, there is a pulling feeling when touched by hand, and there is a "silk sound" when it is torn.

10) viscose fabric (rayon): The surface of silk is bright but not soft, with bright colors, smooth feel and soft and strong drape, but not as light and elegant as real silk.

When the silk surface is loosened by hand, creases will appear and recover slowly. The voice is hoarse when it is torn. After the longitude and latitude lines are soaked by water, they are easy to break.

Commonly used clothing fabrics:

I) cotton fabric:

Refers to the fabric woven from cotton yarn or cotton and cotton-type chemical fiber blended yarn. It has good air permeability, good hygroscopicity and comfortable wearing, and is a popular fabric with strong practicability. It can be divided into two categories: pure cotton products and cotton blends.

2) Hemp fabric:

Pure hemp fabrics woven from hemp fibers and fabrics blended or interwoven with hemp and other fibers are collectively called hemp fabrics. Hemp fabric also has the characteristics of hard texture, rough and crisp, cool and comfortable, and good hygroscopicity. Hemp fabrics can be divided into pure spinning and blended fabrics.

3) Silk fabric:

It is a high-grade variety in textiles. Mainly refers to the fabric with mulberry silk, tussah silk, rayon and synthetic fiber filaments as the main raw materials. It has the advantages of being thin, light, soft, smooth, elegant, gorgeous and comfortable.

4) Wool fabric:

It is a fabric made of wool, rabbit hair, camel hair and wool-type chemical fiber as the main raw materials. Generally speaking, wool is the main material. It is a high-grade clothing fabric all year round, which has the advantages of good elasticity, wrinkle resistance, stiffness, wear resistance, strong warmth retention, comfort and beauty, pure color and so on, and is well received by consumers.

5) Pure chemical fiber fabric:

Chemical fiber fabrics are loved by people because of their high fastness, good elasticity, good stiffness, wear resistance and washability, and easy storage and collection. Pure chemical fiber fabric is a fabric woven from pure chemical fibers.

Its characteristics are determined by the characteristics of its chemical fiber itself. Chemical fibers can be processed into a certain length according to different needs, and woven into silk-like, cotton-like, hemp-like, elastic wool-like and medium-long wool-like fabrics according to different processes.

6) Other clothing fabrics

1. Knitted garment fabric: It is made of one or several yarns that are continuously bent into loops along the weft or warp direction and nested with each other.

2, fur: English pelliccia, leather with fur, generally used for winter boots, shoes or shoe mouth decoration.

3. Leather: all kinds of tanned animal skins. The purpose of tanning is to prevent the skin from getting worse.
