Clothing fabrics can be divided into two categories according to weaving methods: knitted and woven. Knitted fabric is made up of continuously looped loops, which have a large amount of room for expansion and contraction up and down, left and right. Therefore, the fabric has good elasticity, fits well with the body when worn, is comfortable and convenient, and is suitable for stretching, bending and other requirements during human movement. At the same time, the raw materials used for knitted clothing fabrics are fluffy and soft yarns with low twist. The surface of the fabric has a small layer of suede, and the loose and porous tissue composed of coils reduces friction between the fabric and the skin surface during wearing, giving people a comfortable feeling. Moreover, due to the interlocking of the loops that make up the knitted fabric, numerous isolated air pockets are formed inside the fabric, providing excellent warmth and breathability. So wearing cotton knitted clothing in summer feels cooler. Due to the above characteristics of knitted fabrics, they are suitable for making casual clothing such as T-shirts, hoodies, polo shirts, and cultural shirts. Give people a sense of comfort.
Woven fabrics are different from knitted fabrics in that they are interwoven with warp and weft, so they have two directions. Therefore, the woven fabric has a stable layout, a flat surface, and generally does not sag when hanging, making it suitable for various cutting methods. Meanwhile, due to the relatively flat and hard nature of the fabric, woven fabrics are also suitable for various printing, dyeing, and finishing methods. Generally speaking, the printed patterns of woven fabrics are more delicate than those of knitted fabrics. Therefore, woven fabrics are more suitable for complex printing and dyeing. Due to the characteristics of woven fabrics, they are more suitable for making workwear, jumpsuits, security uniforms, chef uniforms, and other clothing that require high durability and wear resistance.
Different industries have different demands for the role of clothing. Industries that frequently encounter open flames, such as firefighting and welding, generally require clothing to be flame-retardant. Can effectively protect the safety of personnel's lives. Anti flame retardant fabrics can generally be divided into post finishing flame retardant and raw material yarn flame retardant. The former is treated with flame retardant after the clothing is completed, and this type of flame retardant fabric can only meet general flame retardant requirements. If high requirements are placed on the flame retardant effect, raw yarn flame retardant is generally used. This type of fabric can achieve the best flame retardant effect by treating the yarn that has not yet been made into fabric with flame retardant treatment and then weaving it into clothing.
In the fields of laboratory, petroleum industry, chemical industry, electronics industry, aerospace, atomic energy, etc. Their demand for clothing often requires anti-static measures. Tiny static electricity can have a huge impact on electronic products, and even generate electrical sparks that can cause explosions and other accidents that result in significant losses. Anti static clothing generally uses specialized polyester filament and conductive fibers woven in the warp or weft direction. It has the characteristics of high efficiency, permanent anti-static and dustproof performance, thin and smooth texture, and clear weaving pattern.
Factory workwear requires some durable and hard fabrics. This type of fabric can provide some protection for the wearer while effectively extending its service life.
Making a piece of clothing requires not only fabric, but also various accessories. Common accessories include lining, zippers, buttons, logos, reflective strips, etc. Button zippers and other materials can be divided into nylon, resin, copper, iron, etc. According to the model, it can be divided into 3, 5, 8, etc.
The demand for clothing in today's society is not only satisfied with covering the body and keeping warm. The different demands of various industries for clothing have given rise to various new types of fabrics and uses. Completing a piece of clothing requires a lot of attention to material selection, weaving techniques, and sewing. The clothing industry is still a constantly developing industry, and only by constantly innovating and meeting various needs can we keep up with the trend of the times.
