Plain crepe satin and mulberry silk are two different fabric materials. They have some differences in raw materials, processes and characteristics.
First of all, plain crepe satin is a fabric made of chemical fiber or blended yarn, usually using polyester, nylon and other synthetic fibers and cotton, linen, etc. Natural fibers are blended. Its surface is smooth, soft and has a certain gloss. Plain crepe satin is usually used to make clothing, bedding, etc.
Mulberry silk is made from fiber extracted from the cocoons of mulberry silkworms. It is a natural fiber. Mulberry silk is light and soft, making it very suitable for making high-end clothing. The fiber diameter of mulberry silk is thin and has good air permeability and moisture absorption, making the wearer feel comfortable. In addition, mulberry silk has excellent antibacterial properties and durability.
In terms of technology, plain crepe satin is usually made by machine weaving, which has high production efficiency and relatively low price. Mulberry silk, on the other hand, requires complex processes such as cocoon degumming, spinning, and weaving. The production cost is high and the price is relatively expensive.
In general, there are obvious differences in raw materials, processes and characteristics between plain crepe satin and mulberry silk. Plain crepe satin is a fabric made of a blend of synthetic fibers and natural fibers, which is suitable for mass consumer products; while mulberry silk is a high-end fabric that is natural, soft, and hygroscopic, and is suitable for high-end clothing. Which fabric you choose depends on personal needs and budget.
