What is pure cotton fabric? What are its characteristics?

    Pure cotton fabrichas excellent moisture absorption properties. Under normal conditions, pure Cotton Fabric can absorb moisture from the surrounding atmosphere, with a moisture content of 8-10%. Therefore, when it comes into contact with human skin, it feels soft and not stiff. The main characteristics are as follows:
    Hygroscopicity

    If the humidity of cotton fabric increases and the surrounding temperature is high, the water content in the fibers will evaporate completely, maintaining the fabric in a state of water balance and providing a comfortable feeling.
    Moisturizing property

    Since cotton fibers are poor conductors of heat and electricity, with an extremely low thermal conductivity, and due to their porous nature, a large amount of air can be trapped between the fibers, and air is also a poor conductor of heat and electricity, pure cotton fiber textiles have good moisture retention properties. Wearing clothing made of pure cotton fabric makes people feel warm.

    Heat resistance

    Pure cotton fabrics have good heat resistance. When exposed to temperatures below 110°C, they only cause evaporation of moisture on the fabric without damaging the fibers. Therefore, at room temperature, wearing, washing, and dyeing have no impact on pure cotton fabrics, which in turn enhances their washability and durability.
    Alkali resistance

    Cotton fibers exhibit strong resistance to alkali. When immersed in an alkaline solution, the fibers remain intact, a property that facilitates the washing and disinfection of contaminants after use. Additionally, it allows for the dyeing, printing, and various other processing techniques on pure Cotton Textiles, resulting in the creation of new cotton fabric varieties.
    Sanitary quality

    Cotton fiber is a natural fiber, primarily composed of cellulose, along with minor amounts of waxy substances, nitrogen-containing compounds, and pectin. Pure cotton fabrics have undergone extensive testing and practical application, and have been proven to cause no irritation when in contact with the skin, with no negative effects. Prolonged wear is beneficial rather than harmful to the human body, and they exhibit good hygienic properties.
