1, flax is the plant’s cortical fiber, its function is similar to human skin, protect the body, regulate the temperature and other natural properties. Linen clothing than other clothing materials can reduce the sweat of the human body, water absorption speed than satin, rayon fabrics, even several times faster than cotton, and skin contact that the formation of capillary phenomenon, is an extension of the skin. The natural breathability, hygroscopic, refreshing and hygroscopic properties of flax make it a free-breathing textile, which can reduce the room temperature of the human body by 4-8 ° C at normal temperature, and is called “natural air conditioning”.

2. Cotton and linen. Cotton and hemp is a blend of cotton and hemp, which has both hemp and cotton points. Hemp, good comfort, good air permeability, affordable, but itchy to the skin, poor elasticity, easy to fade; Cotton, good comfort, soft feel, strong sweat absorption, but poor durability, poor elasticity, fade shrinkage, easy to wrinkle. The advantages of cotton are good comfort, soft feel, strong sweat absorption. The disadvantages of cotton are poor durability, poor elasticity, fading and shrinking, and easy to wrinkle. Hemp has the advantages of good comfort, good air permeability and durability.

3, the cotton and linen line and the middle of the line is very fine, the work has been almost ordinary cloth, it looks very dense. The linen fabric, the gap between the fabric line and the line is very large, like the kind of rice bag N years ago, it looks very ventilated.

4. The distinguishing method of cotton, linen and linen

Linen: In general, in addition to the foreign trade list, pure linen will be made, and the domestic sales list has been mainly cotton and linen. The reason is that the production process of pure flax is relatively high, and the general factory production is not easy. In addition, in recent years, China’s domestic talent began to slowly accept flax, and the demand is not strong in foreign countries, and the people on our side are mainly face-based.

The perceived roughness of pure linen is stronger than cotton and linen, the occurrence of roving and the existence of some line color deviation this is normal, because the process of linen production cloth and cotton and linen is relatively different, pure linen will be pure in some impurities. But wear is better than cotton and linen, natural things are always the best.

Cotton and hemp: the general domestic sales of hemp materials are mainly cotton and hemp, but many production in order to reduce costs, will use chemical fiber instead of cotton. Of course, the effect of low-cost things will be relatively less.

Linen or cotton is better

Linen, one of the best summer fabrics, breathable, but love to wrinkle, feel a little rough. The advantages of cotton are easy to keep warm, soft and close, hygroscopic and breathable. Not easy to pilling. The disadvantages are easy to shrink, easy to wrinkle, the appearance is not neat and beautiful, and must be ironed often when wearing. Cottonhemp means a blend of linen and cotton. It combines the advantages and disadvantages of both.

Tip: Linen clothing washing and drying

1. The washing requirements of hemp fabric are basically the same as those of cotton fabric, but its soaking time should not be too long. And because hemp fiber is generally more rigid, the holding force is poor. Should be lightly kneaded, not strong kneading on the washboard, avoid using a hard brush to brush, so as to avoid fuzz. Ramie clothing needs special attention, otherwise it will feel itchy and uncomfortable when it is worn again after the hair is raised.
2. After rinsing, do not squeeze or dehydrate hard to prevent the hemp fiber from sliding, affecting the appearance and durability. When drying, the collar and seam of the clothes should be pulled flat and straightened, which can be dried in the sun, but not exposed to the sun for too long to prevent fading.
3. The stain removal method of hemp fabric is the same as that of cotton fabric, but if there is a slight cigarette burn on linen fabric. It can be wiped with a piece of lemon and then placed in the sun for a while.
