1. Pure wool
Advantages: warm, breathable, hygroscopic, good elasticity, good plasticity, shiny, soft and Good drape!
Disadvantages: easy to shrink, not resistant to alkali and acid, afraid of sunlight, prone to moths.
2. Cashmere
Advantages: The best kind of animal fiber, good toughness, light, soft, warm, and elastic. It has good hygroscopicity and good perspiration wicking effect.
Disadvantages: Pilling, static electricity, poor wrinkle resistance
3. Silk
Advantages: Very good moisture absorption and breathability, good acid and heat resistance, good dyeability, soft texture, smooth and layered.
Disadvantages: poor wrinkle resistance, afraid of sun exposure, shrinkage
4. Cotton
Advantages: sunlight resistance, heat resistance, alkali resistance, dyeability, good hygroscopicity, softness, and good dyeability.
Disadvantages: poor elasticity, shrinkage, and poor wrinkle resistance.
5. Linen
Advantages: better acid resistance than cotton, good moisture absorption and dyeability, and fast moisture dissipation
Disadvantages: alkali resistance, easy to wrinkle, shrinkage
6. Cotton fiber (nylon)
Advantages: elasticity, hygroscopicity, good dyeability, easy to wash and quick-drying, alkali-resistant but not acid-resistant, sanitary balls should not be placed during storage, and abrasion resistance is the best among all fibers currently.
Disadvantages: yellowing in the sun, easy to pill, poor light resistance
7. Polyester (polyester fiber)
Advantages: wear-resistant, good elasticity, good deformation resistance, easy to wash and quick-drying, no ironing required.
Disadvantages: Pilling, poor hygroscopicity. Commonly used blended fabrics include: polyester-cotton, wool-polyester.
8. Acrylic fiber (polyacrylonitrile fiber)
Advantages: good elasticity and warmth, soft and fluffy, easy to dye, Resistant to sunlight, mildew and moth, good corrosion resistance, easy to wash and quick dry
Disadvantages: poor wear resistance, poor hygroscopicity.
9. Spandex (Lycra)
Advantages: good elasticity, sweat-resistant, acid and alkali resistant, dry-cleaning and wear-resistant, Lightweight and soft.
Disadvantages: prone to static electricity
10. Viscose fiber
Advantages: soft, good drape, good dyeability and hygroscopicity, easy to wash and quick to dry.
Disadvantages: shrinkage, deformation, not wear-resistant, afraid of sunlight.
