In baby home textiles, I believe you will find that in addition to pure cotton fabrics, knitted cotton is also very popular. Welcome. So what is the difference between knitted cotton and pure cotton? Which of the two is better? Today I will introduce to you knitted cotton and pure cotton.
Knitted cotton is a kind of yarn that uses knitting needles to bend into loops and intertwine them. The fabric formed is made of cotton as the main raw material and processed by knitting technology. Generally, it has good elasticity, moisture absorption, breathability, comfort and warmth. It is the most widely used fabric for baby home textiles.
Pure cotton refers to fabrics containing 100% cotton. It has good hygiene, warmth retention, hygroscopicity and breathability. However, if knitted cotton does not contain other materials, we can also say that it is also a pure cotton fabric.
So, pure cotton is mainly aimed at the composition of the fabric, and knitted cotton is mainly aimed at making a fabric craftsmanship.
Knitted cotton looks like pure cotton, and cotton fibers have good hygroscopicity. Under normal circumstances, cotton fibers absorb moisture in the air, which is why both knitted cotton and pure cotton feel comfortable when worn. But the heat resistance of pure cotton fabric is better. Due to the use of textile technology, knitted cotton has a smooth surface and is less prone to pilling than pure cotton.
Knitted cotton is characterized by good dyeability, bright colors and color fastness. It should be high, and the wearing comfort and hygroscopicity are very close to that of pure cotton. The disadvantage is that it is not acid-resistant and has poor elasticity. Pure cotton is characterized by good moisture absorption and high wearing comfort.
In terms of material selection, there is no difference between the two fabrics. Knitted cotton is actually made of Cotton thread is made through knitting technology. They are all made of cotton, and there is not much difference in wearing comfort and health. The difference is that knitted cotton has good dyeing technology.
So, there is no big difference between the two. Everyone can buy it according to their needs.
