I. Characteristics of fabric – each fabric has its own characteristics, which are its own conditions and performance.
The characteristics of the material can be divided into raw fiber raw materials, weaving method, texture, weight, hand feel, finishing, wearing and cleaning performance, etc.
Briefly explain the weave, texture, weight, and wearing performance of the fabric.
1. Weaving method: Fabrics include woven fabrics and knitted fabrics. Most of our clothes are made of woven fabrics. The most common woven fabrics are woven fabrics. Fabrics include plain weave, twill weave, etc., which refers to the structure of the fabric body in which yarns are interwoven in an orderly manner, which is related to the texture, texture and feel of the fabric.
2. Texture: Each material has its own organizational structure. Due to the different materials and weaving methods, it produces different tactile/visual sensations Effect. Such as: smooth and shiny cotton, soft and light gauze, etc. An original cosplay dress pays great attention to texture, so be careful when choosing fabrics. It is best to discuss the cutting methods and materials with the tailor.
3.
Weight: The weight of fabric usually refers to G/M, (grams per meter). Needless to say, if you want a more elegant effect, you should choose a lighter fabric, and vice versa. For example, outerwear such as jackets, skirts, trousers, etc. mostly use heavier fabrics, while shirts use lighter fabrics. In addition, fabrics are also closely related to seasons. In autumn and winter, heavier fabrics are basically used, and in spring and summer, lighter fabrics are used. And lighter fabrics.
4.
Wearing and cleaning performance: Wearing performance refers to whether the clothing is durable, and cleaning performance refers to whether the clothing can be machine washed or needs to be hand washed or dry cleaned. This is very important for daily wear clothes, but for cosplay clothes, it can generally be ignored. Sometimes in order to achieve the BT effect of the original work, it is necessary to use very troublesome fabrics. In addition, the clothes are not worn often, which will sacrifice the wearability and convenience of cleaning.
II. Fabrics can basically be divided into two categories: natural fibers and chemical fibers:
★ Natural fibers refer to textile fibers found in nature or obtained directly from artificially cultivated animals.
★ Chemical fiber is a textile fiber produced by a certain method using natural or synthetic polymers as raw materials.
★ Man-made fibers refer to natural polymers (such as wood, bagasse or animal fibers, etc.) as raw materials, which have been spun into fibers after certain processing. of fiber.
★ Synthetic fiber is a fiber made from synthetic high polymer giant spinning using petroleum, coal, natural gas and some agricultural and sideline products as raw materials. 1. Properties of natural fibers
(1), cotton
1,
It has strong hygroscopicity, comfortable to wear, easy to dye and shrink easily. 2. Resistant to alkali and acid, mercerized cotton has been treated with caustic soda.Cotton fabric. 3.
Cotton fiber is relatively heat-resistant, but it is not suitable for long-term processing above 100 degrees. If the ironing temperature is around 190 degrees, it is best to spray moisture on cotton fabrics when ironing to facilitate ironing. 4.
Cotton fiber is soft and weak. Cotton fabric has good feel, comfortable to wear and washable, but it wrinkles easily. It is suitable for all kinds of clothing and bedding in all seasons.
(2), hemp
There are many varieties of hemp, including ramie , flax, jute, hemp, etc., the first two are currently used more in fabrics. Linen and cotton have some similar properties.
1. Highly hygroscopic, resistant to alkali but not acid. 2. The heat resistance is also good, the ironing temperature can reach 190 degrees – 210 degrees, and it is easy to burn. 3. The strength is higher than that of cotton. Hemp fiber is harder, less weak, and the fabric wrinkles easily. It is harder, stiffer and more comfortable than cotton fabric. The so-called linen fabric is the ramie fabric that southerners love to wear. It does not fit tightly against the body after sweating.
Ramie is the best quality fiber among hemp fibers. It has the characteristics of coolness, moisture absorption, breathability, etc., and it has high stiffness, hard, stiff and not close to the body. , suitable for making summer clothing. Ramie and polyester are blended to make “hemp really good”, which has a refreshing style.
(3), Mao
Wool fiber is used most in textiles of wool, often called fleece.
Wool fiber is thicker and longer than cotton fiber, has a certain curl, and its surface is covered with a layer of scales. Due to the existence of scales, wool has a special property, namely shrinkage. Fulling property refers to the property of wool that is rubbed together in warm water and washing liquid, and then bites and shrinks with each other. Causes wool products to be washed in daily life
After shrinkage, the density becomes larger, and milling is one of the reasons. If the scales are destroyed to make them smooth and flat, wool products will not mill. Therefore, machine washable woolen sweaters sold on the market undergo this surface treatment.
(4), silk
Natural silk is divided into domestic silk and Wild silk, domestic silk is mulberry silk; the main variety of wild silk is tussah silk. Silk has high strength, slender fibers, soft and smooth, is weaker than cellulose fibers, and has a unique luster. Silk fabric can be thin and gauze-like, but can also be plump and firm as silk. It is a highly durable clothing material and is a protein fiber like wool.
2. Properties of chemical fibers
★
The main clothing material is 7-dacron. Their common characteristics are as follows: A. The hygroscopicity is generally lower than that of natural fibers. They are prone to static electricity after friction and can easily absorb dust. B Most of them have high strength and good elasticity, and are prone to pilling after being worn for a long time. C
When burning, they generally soften and shrink first, and some can melt, produce dripping and drawing, and emit odor, and the ironing temperature is lower than that of natural fibers. D. Heat setting properties are better, and since they have low hygroscopicity, they can remain in their original shape after washing.
(1), polyester (really good)
is the current chemical fiber The fastest growing fiber. Commonly known as true good. The silk fabrics made from it include soft yarn, Juliet yarn, Jiali silk, and the so-called “linen yarn material” that is popular with women in the recent summer market, etc. Polyester blended with cotton is called cotton-polyester (cotton-polyester), blended with wool is called wool-polyester, and warm-spun with linen is called linen-polyester. Its characteristics: it has a stuffy and airtight feeling, is not easy to dye, becomes static after friction, and is easy to absorb dust. , but not easy to shrink, easy to wash, and quick to dry.
(2), nylon (nylon, nylon, capron)
Commonly known as nylon, nylon, caplon, etc., its characteristics: good elasticity, high strength, high abrasion resistance, poor light resistance, easy to yellow when exposed to the sun, often used in socks, gloves and knitted sportswear, etc. .
(3), acrylic (Alon, Cashmere, Axlon)
It has the characteristics of fluffy, soft and warm, such as light weight, low price, bright color, high strength, no mildew and no moth, no need to iron after washing, etc. Suitable for autumn and winter clothing fabrics, such as acrylic sweaters, spun fur coats, blankets, etc.
(4), vinylon (vinylon, yarn fiber, cola fiber)
After blending vinylon with cotton, it became a popular vinylon fabric in the domestic market. Vinyl fabric is very similar to cotton, in synthetic fibers

Commonly known as nylon, nylon, caplon, etc., its characteristics: good elasticity, high strength, high wear resistance, poor light resistance, easy to fade when exposed to the sun Yellow is often used in socks, gloves and knitted sportswear.
(3), acrylic (Olon, Cashmere, Axlon)
It has the characteristics of fluffy, soft and warm, such as light weight, low price, bright color, high strength, no mildew or moth, no need to iron after washing, etc. Suitable Make autumn and winter clothing fabrics, such as acrylic sweaters, spun fur coats, blankets, etc.
(4), vinylon (vinylon, yarn Lun, cola Lun)
After blending vinylon with cotton, it became a popular vinylon fabric in the domestic market. Vinyl fabric is very similar to cotton, in synthetic fibers
