The advantages and disadvantages of flax fabric, the reason why flax is popular?

Advantages of linen
Firstly, linen fabric is a kind of fabric with good moisture absorption and moisture conductivity.
Flax fabric is woven with flax fiber as the main raw material. Therefore, flax fabric and flax fiber have similar characteristics, that is, flax fabric has very good moisture conductivity and moisture absorption. Scientific experiments have proved that linen can absorb more than 20 times its own weight. It can be seen that linen fabric has very good temperature regulation performance.
Secondly, flax fabric has very good anti allergy performance.
The raw material of flax fabric is flax fiber, which is extracted from flax through degumming process. It is a pure natural raw material and does not contain any substances harmful to human body. Therefore, linen has very good anti allergy properties.
In addition, linen has other advantages. Flax fabric is better in anti-static and antibacterial than other fabrics, and flax fabric has the characteristics of lightness and coolness.
Three disadvantages of flax fabric
1. Easy to wrinkle. Flax is a natural fiber. This material is full of toughness, but it has no elasticity. Other fabrics will slowly return to their original shape after deformation, but flax can't do it. Once deformed, it can only wrinkle. 2. Poor dimensional stability. This is also because it is easy to wrinkle, so it is not good to measure the size, and there will be deviation. 3. Wearing close to the body will have a harsh feeling. As we all know, flax is a natural feature, so the treatment process will retain its characteristics first, so it is inevitable to feel uncomfortable.
Although linen has its advantages and disadvantages, it will become more and more popular with the adaptation of environmental protection slogans and the promotion of fashion people. Remind everyone that linen washing should pay attention to. If it is a simple linen garment, there are no special requirements for washing and maintenance. Just be careful. However, if there is a sandwich, the shrinkage difference between the two fabrics should be considered to prevent deformation.
What are the advantages of linen clothes
Advantages of linen clothes 1: linen clothes have strong moisture absorption and moisture dissipation ability. In the wet rainy season, if the wall cloth, tablecloth, curtains and sheets in the room are replaced with linen, it can effectively reduce the indoor humidity. In the dry autumn and winter season, if linen is used, the indoor will not be too dry. Linen has a good effect on keeping the air humidity relatively constant.
Advantages of linen clothes 2: linen clothes have disease prevention effect. Linen clothes have high strength, good corrosion resistance, and are easy to absorb sweat and disperse moisture, so it is conducive to prevent some skin diseases, such as rash, skin itching and so on. In addition, compared with cotton fabrics, linen clothes are wet spun without dry spinning burrs, and there is no itching feeling when wearing close to the body. Therefore, linen clothes are an ideal choice in hot summer.
Advantages of linen clothes 3: linen clothes are not easy to carry static electricity and absorb dust. Some hospitals and nursing homes use linen for bedding and surgical clothes.
Advantages of linen clothes 4: linen clothes can effectively reduce the harmful effect of magnetic field on human body. It has been reported that the body of the staff investigating in Antarctica is vulnerable to the influence of strong magnetic field, while the team members wearing linen clothes and using linen tents are in good health and have little impact.
Identification of linen clothes
(1) Check whether the thickness of longitude and latitude lines is uniform through light transmission. If the warp and weft lines are too uniform, it may be cotton fabric.
(2) Tighten the cloth grain and check the compactness of the weaving.
(3) Fine primary color linen is brown, shiny and absorbs water evenly. Flax is of poor quality. It is treated into soft fiber linen. It absorbs water unevenly and will turn black when wet.
(4) For worsted linen, the less Plush on the surface, the better.
(5) The vertical and horizontal tightness of semi linen is different.
(6) Pull a thread end. If there is bending and separation at both ends, the thread is cotton. The ends of the torn flax thread should be smooth, otherwise it is impure.
(7) If caustic soda water is applied to the canvas, flax will appear brownish yellow and cotton cloth will appear light yellow.
