The difference between cationic fabric and pure cotton; which is better, cationic fabric or pure cotton
The difference between cationic fabric and pure cotton, which is better? Both cationic fabric and pure cotton fabric are characterized by their softness and elasticity. As for which is better, it depends on personal preference. Pure cotton fabric has always been a popular fabric in daily life, while cationic fabric is made using special physical methods to produce cationic yarns such as cationic polyester filaments or cationic nylon filaments.
1. Advantages of cationic fabric:
1. One of the characteristics of cationic fabric is its two-color effect. Using this characteristic, it can replace some color-woven two-color fabrics, thereby reducing the cost of the fabric. This is a characteristic of cationic fabric, but it also limits its characteristics. In the face of multicolor color-woven fabrics, cationic fabrics can only be replaced.
2. Cationic fabrics have bright colors and are very suitable for use as artificial fibers, but their washing and lightfastness are poor when used for natural cellulose and protein textiles.
3. Cationic fabrics also have very good wear resistance. After adding some artificial fibers such as polyester and spandex, the strength is higher, the elasticity is better, and the wear resistance is second only to nylon.
4. Cationic fabrics have some chemical properties, such as corrosion resistance, alkali resistance, bleach resistance, oxidant resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, ketone resistance, petroleum product resistance and inorganic acid resistance. It also has some physical properties, such as anti-ultraviolet ability.

2. Advantages of pure cotton fabric:
1. Pure cotton fabric is comfortable: humidity balance. Pure cotton fibers can absorb moisture from the surrounding atmosphere, and their moisture content is 8-10%, feeling soft and not stiff when in contact with the skin.
2. Pure cotton fabric is warm: warmth: The thermal and electrical conductivity of cotton fiber is extremely low, the fiber itself is porous and highly elastic, and the gaps between the fibers can store a large amount of air (air is also a poor conductor of heat and electricity), so it has high warmth retention in winter.
3. Pure cotton fabric is durable: (1) Below 110℃, it will only cause the evaporation of moisture in the fabric, and will not damage the fiber. Washing and dyeing at room temperature have no effect on the fabric, improving the washability and wear resistance of the fabric.
(2) Cotton fiber is naturally alkali-resistant, and the fiber is not easily destroyed by alkali, which is conducive to washing clothes. And dyeing, printing and other various processing techniques.
4. Environmental protection: Cotton fiber is a natural fiber. Pure cotton fabrics are not irritating to the skin and are harmless to the human body.
