What are blended fabrics, what are their categories and what are their advantages?

Blended chemical fiber fabrics, refers to chemical fibers and other natural fibers such as cotton, silk, flax and other natural fibers mixed spinning woven into the textile products. Such blended fabrics relatively retain the strengths of natural fibers, while also absorbing the style of chemical fibers. Elasticity and abrasion resistance are both good, and size stability, not easy to shrink, not easy to crease, but not high temperature ironing.

Blended fabrics generally refer to the blending of two or more components. For the two fabrics to complement each other's strengths and advantages to coexist, to meet people's different requirements for clothes. So what blended fabrics are there in the market?

1. Polyester-cotton blended fabric

Polyester-cotton blended fabric is one of the first varieties developed in China, this kind of fiber has a smooth, fast-drying, durable, also more brace, in general more advantages, gets the general consumers like. With the progress of fabrics on the market, the varieties of blends have also been changed, from the previous 65% polyester and 35% cotton ratio to 55% polyester and 45% cotton, 50% polyester and 50% cotton, 20% polyester and 80% cotton, four kinds of ratio to adapt to the needs of consumers at different levels.

2. Cotton-polyester blended fabric

There are similarities and differences between polyester-cotton blended fabrics and cotton-polyester blended fabrics. Polyester-cotton blended fabrics have more than 60% of polyester, while cotton is below 40% of the composition. Cotton-polyester blended fabrics are the opposite, with cotton accounting for more than 60% of the composition, while polyester is below 40%.

3. Chemical fiber blended fabric

Chemical fiber blends are a variety of chemical fiber blend spinning and weaving textile products. Most of the chemical fibers are fibers of synthetic polymer substances, as well as a small portion of natural ingredients. Depending on their source, they can be divided into man-made fibers made of natural polymer substances and synthetic fibers made of synthetic polymer substances. They must undergo a series of post-processing processes to meet the requirements of textile processing and use.

The next series of processes are mainly aimed at fiber stretching and heat setting to improve the mechanical properties and dimensional stability of the fibers. Stretching is the orientation of the macromolecules or structural units in the virgin fiber along the fiber axis; heat setting is mainly to relax the internal stress in the fiber. Wet spinning fiber post-processing also includes washing, oiling, drying and other processes. When spinning filament, by the above process can be wound into a tube; when spinning short fiber must also add curling, cutting and packing processes.

The purpose of blending fibers is to reduce the cost of woolen fabrics without reducing the style of woolen fabrics due to the blending of viscose fibers.Zhejiang Dingyi New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. believes that this type of fabric can also be considered, the price is relatively low compared to other fabrics.
