2023-05-13
The advantages of linen fabric mainly include the following points:
Comfortable and breathable: Linen fiber has good breathability, which allows linen fabric to keep the skin dry and comfortable, especially suitable for wearing in summer or hot climates.
Strong moisture absorption: Flax fiber can absorb sweat from the body, keeping the body dry and less prone to discomfort.
Antibacterial and deodorizing: Flax has natural antibacterial properties, which can inhibit bacterial growth and effectively prevent the production of odors.
Good heat resistance: Flax fibers are not easily deformed or damaged by high temperatures, and have good heat resistance.
Strong wear resistance: Linen fiber is relatively tough and wear-resistant, with high durability, not easy to wear and deform.
Environmental sustainability: Flax is a natural plant fiber with a short growth cycle, environmentally friendly, and good sustainability.
However, linen fabric also has some drawbacks:
Wrinkle prone: Linen fabric is prone to wrinkling and requires frequent ironing to maintain cleanliness.
Shrinkage: Linen fabric is prone to shrinkage, and attention should be paid to washing and maintenance methods to avoid shrinkage and deformation.
Not suitable for making close fitting clothing: Although linen fabric has good breathability, it is prone to static electricity, which may cause discomfort to people with sensitive skin, so it is not suitable for making close fitting clothing.
High price: Due to the unique properties and production process of linen fabric, its price is relatively high and not suitable for making low-cost clothing.
In addition, flax fibers have poor dyeing properties and are prone to uneven dyeing or fading. Additionally, their elasticity is poor and they are not easy to stretch, leading to relaxation and deformation.
