The manufacturing process of jacquard fabric (cloth) is complicated. The warp and weft yarns are interwoven and up and down to form different patterns, with uneven shapes, and beautiful patterns such as flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds and animals are often woven.

Jacquard fabric (cloth) has a unique texture of softness, fineness, smoothness, good gloss, good drape and breathability, and high color fastness. The pattern of large jacquard fabric (cloth) is large and exquisite, with clear color levels and strong three-dimensional sense, while the pattern of small jacquard fabric (cloth) is relatively simple and single. Jacquard is divided into two-color jacquard fabric (cloth) and single-color jacquard fabric (cloth).

Jacquard fabric (cloth): The warp and weft organization changes to form the pattern when the fabric is woven, the yarn count is fine, and the requirements for raw cotton are extremely high. There are differences in the weaving and dyeing processes of monochrome jacquard and multi-color jacquard. Monochrome jacquard is jacquard dyed fabric - first the jacquard grey fabric is woven on a jacquard loom and then dyed and finished, and the finished fabric is solid color; multi-color jacquard is a yarn-dyed jacquard fabric (cloth) - the yarn is first dyed and then woven on a jacquard loom, and finally finished. Therefore, the yarn-dyed jacquard fabric has more than two colors, the fabric is rich in color, not monotonous, the pattern has a strong three-dimensional sense, and the grade is higher. The fabric width is 2.5 meters, and the pure cotton fabric has a slight shrinkage, does not pill, and does not fade.

Satin jacquard fabric (cloth): The warp and weft yarns are interwoven at least once every three yarns, so the satin weave makes the fabric density higher, so the fabric is thicker. Satin weave products are more expensive than similar plain and twill weave products. Fabrics woven with satin weave are collectively referred to as satin fabrics. Satin fabric has front and back sides. There are the fewest interlacing points in a complete weave cycle, the longest floating thread, and the fabric surface is almost entirely composed of floating threads in the warp or weft direction. Satin fabric has a soft texture. The cloth surface is smooth, delicate and shiny. The most common satin fabric is striped satin, referred to as satin stripes. It is divided into two types of fabrics: 40-count 2m 4-width satin stripes and 60-count 2m 8-width satin stripes. The process of weaving first and then dyeing, this kind of fabric is generally solid color. It is extended by horizontal stripes. Pure cotton fabric shrinks slightly, does not pill, and is not easy to fade.

Satin jacquard fabric (cloth)

Knowledge of "satin jacquard fabric".

First of all, please understand these three concepts: plain weave, twill, and satin.

Plain weave: Fabric woven with plain weave is called plain weave fabric. That is, the warp yarn and the weft yarn are interwoven once every other yarn (that is, the yarn is 1 up and 1 down). This kind of cloth is characterized by many interlacing points, strong texture, stiffness, and smooth surface. High-end embroidery fabrics are generally plain fabrics.

Twill fabric: The warp and weft yarns are interlaced at least once every two yarns, that is, 2 up and 1 down or 3 up and 1 down. The warp and weft interlacing points are added to change the fabric structure, collectively referred to as twill fabric. This kind of cloth is characterized by being relatively thick and having a strong three-dimensional sense of organization. The counts range from 30, 40, and 60.

Satin fabric: The warp and weft yarns are interlaced at least once every three yarns, so the satin weave makes the fabric density higher, so the fabric is thicker. Satin weave products are more expensive than similar plain and twill weave products. The surface of the cloth is smooth, delicate, and shiny. Plain, twill, and satin are the three most basic ways of interlacing warp and weft. There is no specific distinction between good and bad here, each has its own characteristics, and satin is definitely a fine product among pure cotton fabrics.

Let's talk about satin in detail.

There are four concepts of satin: satin, satin stripe, satin check, and satin jacquard.

What kind of fabric is satin? In fact, through the introduction just now, you have already understood that "plain, twill, and satin" are all satin fabrics, not referring to any specific fabric.

The most common satin fabric is striped satin, referred to as satin stripe. The texture is extended by horizontal stripes (see picture). It adopts the process of weaving first and then dyeing, and this kind of fabric is generally solid color. It does not pill and is not easy to fade.

There is also a kind of satin called satin check, which is also solid color and is a checkered pattern (see picture).

Satin stripes and satin check are generally the raw materials for hotel bedding, which are cheap, luxurious and practical.

Satin stripes and satin check are also used to make home kits, but they are far less popular than satin jacquard fabrics.

Jacquard fabric: The pattern on the fabric is woven, not ordinary printing or embroidery. The warp and weft organization changes when the fabric is woven to form a pattern. The yarn count is fine, and the needle and thread density is high. It does not deform or fade during use, and it is comfortable. At present, jacquard is very popular in the market. Satin bedding looks high-grade and tasteful. To distinguish the quality of satin, we need to compare the yarn count and density.

Satin also talks about yarn count. Let's talk about the count first, which is what we often see as 30s, 40s, 60s, etc.! For example, some friends call 30s 30S, which is the same, there is no difference! So what is the count? This is how I understand it:

The count is the standard of the thickness of the yarn. For example, one tael of cotton can be made into 30 yarns of 1 meter, which is 30 counts, and one tael of cotton can be made into 40 yarns of 1 meter long, which is 40 counts; 1 tael of cotton can be made into 60 yarns of 1 meter long, which is 60 counts. In fact, the higher the yarn count, the finer the yarn, and the thinner the cloth woven with such yarn, the softer and more comfortable the cloth is. However, high-count cloth requires high-quality raw materials (cotton), and also has relatively high requirements for yarn mills and textile weaving mills, so the cost of cloth is relatively high. High-count cloth is not suitable for bedding because it is too thin!

Let's talk about the density of the cloth. This is a data that people don't pay much attention to, but the most important thing is that in the industry, Gongduan cloth basically does not talk about the count, they only talk about ** times ** (such as 110*90, 128*68, 65*78, 133*72), because the choice of count is very limited, generally 30S and 40S, 60S is rarely used. Within a unit area, the more warp and weft yarn counts (roots), the better the quality of the fabric. Usually, the warp and weft yarn counts are above 30, and the fabric density (warp density + weft density) is above 180 roots/square inch. Fabrics are called high-count and high-density fabrics. For example, 40-count Gongsatin 133X95 is high count and low density, while 40-count 173 X124 is high count and high density.
