High-count cotton represents the fineness of cotton yarn. The higher the count of cotton yarn, the finer the yarn. The requirements are The better the quality, the more expensive the price. It is generally believed that yarns with a count of 40 or more are considered higher count yarns. Therefore, high-count cotton, both pure cotton and non-pure cotton, is better at anti-static. Only special materials can be completely anti-static.
High-count cotton is made of 100% cotton, no polyester cotton, no chemical fiber fabrics, generally 30-count, 40-count, 60-count, etc. For example, 30 pieces of 78*65 means that the latitude and longitude density in 1 square centimeter is 143 (78+65). 40 pieces of 110*90 represent 1 square meter
The longitude and latitude density in centimeters is 200 (110+90). The duvet covers of high-end bedding such as wool quilts, down quilts, etc. generally use 40-count 133*72 fabric to prevent lint from running away.
Shirts made of high-count cotton are comfortable to wear , soft, sweat-absorbent, easy to wrinkle, easy to deform, easy to dye or change color, a high-quality shirt should at least be pure cotton. As a person who really knows how to dress, you should know what kind of cotton fabric is truly good.
The focus of good fabrics is the wearing life, washing life, visual appearance, wearing skin feel, etc. Various characteristics are expressed. The indicator of count can only affect the characteristics of raw materials at most, and the characteristics of raw materials are also affected by various indicators such as the number of strands and the weight. It is confusing to only use the count as the main parameter to measure the quality of fabrics. Audiovisual practices.
Nowadays, many things are fake and the quality cannot be trusted. For example, if you buy pure cotton products, how can you tell whether they are made of pure cotton? PChouse teaches you how to identify, mainly based on the following points:
1. Grip
Pure cotton fabric feels naturally soft, plump and thick, with a slight sense of astringency and muscles. The pulling range is small, and the recovery speed after pulling is slow; while the chemical fiber fabric feels soft and slippery, has a large stretching range, and will spring back to its original shape as soon as you let go.
2. Look
Pure cotton fabric has no obvious luster. When put down naturally, the hanging feeling is natural and there is little “reflection”. When purchasing, you can flatten it and add a certain amount of tension, and then point the fabric and body downward at a 45-degree angle toward the light source. If there is a bright light flashing, then it must be a product with high content of chemical fiber.
3. Touch
The feel of pure cotton fabric is softer and more comfortable than other textures. Cotton yarn is tougher and less elastic, so it will take a little longer to recover after wrinkles are made in pure cotton. long. When judging pure cotton, you can fold the fabric in half, and then use your fingernails to scrape along the edge. After unfolding, the more obvious the scratches are, proving that the cotton content is higher, while pure fiber fabrics will not leave scratches.
4. Washing
High-count and high-density pure cotton fabrics will shrink less. They will wrinkle after washing and will recover immediately after drying.
