Pure Cotton Characteristics

(1) Hygroscopicity:

Cotton fiber has good hygroscopicity. Under normal conditions, it can absorb water into the surrounding atmosphere. Its moisture content is 8-10%, so it touches human skin and makes people feel soft but not stiff. If the humidity of cotton cloth increases and the surrounding temperature is higher, the water content in the fiber will evaporate and dissipate, which will keep the fabric in a state of water balance and make people feel comfortable.

(2) Thermal insulation:

Because cotton fiber is a bad conductor of heat and electricity, the coefficient of heat conduction is very low, and because cotton fiber itself has the advantages of porous, high elasticity, a large amount of air can be stored between fibers, air is also a bad conductor of heat and electricity, so pure cotton fiber textiles have good thermal insulation, wearing pure cotton clothing makes people feel. Warm.

(3) Heat resistance:

Pure cotton fabrics have good heat resistance. When the temperature is below 110 degrees Celsius, it will only cause moisture evaporation on the fabrics and will not damage the fibers. Therefore, pure cotton fabrics at room temperature, wear, use, washing, printing and dyeing have no effect on the fabrics, thus improving the washability and wearability of pure cotton fabrics.

(4) alkali resistance:

Cotton fibers have great resistance to alkali. Cotton fibers in alkali solution do not destroy the fibers. This property is conducive to washing, disinfecting and removing impurities after wearing. At the same time, cotton textiles can be dyed, printed and processed in various processes to produce more new cotton varieties.

(5) Hygiene:

Cotton fiber is a natural fiber, its main component is cellulose, containing a small amount of waxy substances, nitrogen and pectin. After many tests and practices, pure cotton fabrics have no irritation, no side effects and good hygienic properties.
