The reason why pure cotton clothes are prone to pilling is mainly due to the nature of the fiber and external friction. The following is a detailed explanation:
1. Characteristics of pure cotton fiber: Pure cotton is a natural fiber with good air permeability, water absorption and comfort. sex. However, the surface of pure cotton fiber is relatively soft, with some short fibers and fluff, which easily causes friction and forms balls during wearing and washing.
2. The influence of external friction: When pure cotton clothing comes into contact with other materials such as rough surfaces, hook teeth, zippers and other objects, friction will occur. This friction will cause squeezing and friction between the fibers, causing some of the villi on the surface of the fibers to be pulled out and united together to form small balls.
3. Influence of washing methods: When using a washing machine to wash pure cotton clothes, the pure cotton fibers are easily affected by the mixed materials and friction during the washing process. This causes the fibers to tangle and rub against the fluffy fluff, further forming balls.
4. The effect of clothing wear: During long-term wearing and washing, pure cotton clothing will inevitably be affected by friction and stretching, which makes The fluff on the fiber surface gradually becomes fluffy and loose. Fluffy fluff is more easily pulled and united by friction to form more balls.
How to prevent pilling in pure cotton clothing:
1. Choose high-quality pure cotton Product: High-quality pure cotton fabrics are usually made with longer fibers that are more intertwined, have a smooth surface, and have a lower chance of pilling.
2. Pay attention to dressing and matching: avoid long-term direct contact with rough surface objects, such as backpacks, hook-tooth items, etc., to reduce friction and pilling. possibility.
3. Treat washing gently: usually choose gentle mode and low-speed spin washing machine washing, or use hand washing. In addition, try to avoid washing with rough items (such as zippers, buttons) or other frictional clothing to reduce the occurrence of pilling.
4. Clothing care: Before drying or drying, dry cotton clothes inside out or put them inside the dryer to reduce the risk of Effect of external friction on fiber surface.
In short, pure cotton clothing is prone to pilling due to the characteristics of the fiber itself and external friction. By choosing high-quality pure cotton products, paying attention to dressing and matching, and being gentle with washing and clothing maintenance, you can effectively prevent and reduce the occurrence of pilling in pure cotton clothing.
