What is the difference between knitted cotton and pure cotton? How to distinguish knitted cotton from pure cotton? Knitted cotton is a fabric formed by using knitting needles to bend yarns into loops and intertwined with each other. It generally has good elasticity, moisture absorption, breathability, comfort and warmth. It is the most widely used fabric for children’s clothing. Pure cotton is a fabric made from 100% cotton. It has good hygiene, warmth retention, hygroscopicity and breathability. It is often used in underwear.
The appearance of knitted cotton is just like pure cotton. Cotton fibers have good hygroscopicity. Under normal circumstances, cotton fibers can absorb moisture in the air, which is why both knitted cotton and pure cotton make people feel comfortable when wearing them. But the heat resistance of pure cotton fabric is better. Due to the use of textile technology, knitted cotton has a smooth surface and is less prone to pilling than pure cotton.
Looking at the characteristics of the two fabrics: knitted cotton is characterized by good dyeability, high color brightness and fastness, and the wearing comfort and hygroscopicity are very close to pure cotton. The disadvantage is that it is not acid-resistant and has poor elasticity. Pure cotton is characterized by good moisture absorption and high wearing comfort.
In terms of material selection, there is no difference between the two fabrics. Knitted cotton is actually made of cotton thread through knitting technology. They are all made of cotton, and there is not much difference in wearing comfort and health. The difference is that knitted cotton has good dyeing technology. As for the quality of the dyeing process, it is another matter.
