Spandex is a chemical synthetic fiber known for its elasticity, while pure cotton is favored by consumers for its high comfort. In recent years, these two clothing fabrics have become popular in the market. Occupying a larger proportion, there are more and more disputes about which one is better, spandex or pure cotton. Today I will analyze the two fabrics, spandex and pure cotton.
Let’s first take a look at the characteristics of spandex fabrics: First of all, the elasticity of synthetic fibers is very good, and spandex can be stretched to 6 to 7 times its own length. Good elasticity also determines the fabric. It will have good anti-wrinkle properties, but generally there will be no pure spandex fabrics, but in the form of blends, such as 10% spandex + 90% cotton, and then there is the corrosion resistance and mildew resistance of spandex fabrics. Spandex of similar quality will be lower in price than pure cotton.
Then there are the characteristics of pure cotton fabrics: In fact, everyone has a general impression of pure cotton – comfort, which is the main feature of pure cotton, but in fact, pure cotton also has some defects, such as pure cotton. Cotton will shrink or pill after washing, and as the number of washes increases, the degree of deformation of the clothes will increase.
Comparing the advantages and disadvantages of these two fabrics, we can know that spandex has better elasticity than pure cotton, and spandex is more washable. If washed normally, the clothes will not deform or pill like pure cotton. situation, but in terms of comfort and warmth retention, chemical fiber is not as good as pure cotton, so there is no saying that one of these two fabrics is better than the other. We can only say which one can better meet the needs of customers. If the clothes are For scenes that require relatively high elasticity, spandex will be more suitable. If it is used to make close-fitting clothes, pure cotton will definitely be better.
Does spandex cause cancer?
Although spandex is a chemical synthetic fiber, the country has strict testing standards for fabrics. Only after various indicators have passed the test can it be used for production, and the fabrics must also undergo strict testing after they are made into garments, so they are really wearable. The spandex clothing that touches our bodies does not cause cancer.
