The difference between linen and imitation linen
First of all, let us first understand what kind of yarn flax is. Flax fiber is the earliest natural fiber used by mankind. It is the only bundle plant fiber among natural fibers. It has a natural spindle-shaped structure and unique pectin hypotenuse holes. The resulting excellent moisture absorption, breathability, anticorrosive, antibacterial, low static electricity and other characteristics make flax fabrics a fabric that can breathe naturally and is known as the “queen of fiber.”At room temperature, wearing linen clothing can reduce the real-sense temperature of the human body by 4 degrees-5 degrees, so linen is also known as “natural air conditioning”.And because linen is a rare natural fiber, accounting for only 1.5% of natural fibers, linen products are relatively expensive and have become a symbol of identity and status abroad.
The imitation linen is made of viscose and nylon with a certain process to maximize the high-quality characteristics of linen yarn. Although this product cannot fully possess the characteristics of linen yarn, compared with the expensive price of linen yarn, the price of imitation linen yarn is much lower than that of linen yarn, which can benefit mass consumers and be more people-friendly.As soon as this model was launched on the market, it was well recognized and loved.The nylon fiber contained in clothing made of imitation linen yarn makes the finished product have a certain degree of stretch and strong shrinkage.
