Types and characteristics of towel materials

1. Types and characteristics of towel materials

There are many kinds of towel materials, including pure cotton, pure linen, bamboo fiber, kapok and artificial cotton. Among them, pure cotton is the most common towel material. It has good water absorption and air permeability, is soft to the touch, easy to clean, and is relatively economical. Pure linen towels are relatively thin and not as absorbent as pure cotton, but they have better air permeability and are natural and healthy. Bamboo fiber towels are relatively antibacterial, soft, and easy to clean, while kapok towels have a natural rough feel and are suitable for massage.

2. Whether the towel is a wadding fiber product?

Generally speaking, fiber products for batting refer to fiber products processed from waste, kapok bones or other waste items. Towels are generally made of natural materials such as pure cotton, pure linen, bamboo fiber and kapok, so towels are not fiber products made of batting. However, when purchasing towels, consumers should also pay attention to the processing and use of shredded cotton and other inferior materials, and choose products with acceptable quality to ensure safety and comfort.

3. How to maintain towels

Towels must be washed promptly after use. It is best not to wash clothes together to avoid problems such as color fading and bacterial growth. At the same time, use neutral detergent when cleaning, and do not use detergent and soap containing bleaching ingredients and abrasive particles, otherwise it will affect the water absorption and comfort of the towel. Dry thoroughly after washing to minimize exposure time and avoid affecting the softness and service life of the towel.

What are the characteristics of terry cloth fabric?

Terry cloth fabric-pure cotton towel

Pure cotton towels are one of the best-selling towels on the market today because they use pure cotton yarn as raw material and are woven into a woven fabric with loop pile or cut pile pile on the surface. Pure cotton towels are highly hygroscopic and have a large shrinkage rate, about 4-10%. Pure cotton towels are alkali-resistant but not acid-resistant. Cotton is extremely unstable to inorganic acids. Even very dilute sulfuric acid will damage it. However, cotton is relatively alkali-resistant. Generally, diluted alkali will not affect cotton at room temperature, but strong alkali will. down, the strength of the cotton fabric will decrease. In addition, pure cotton towels have average light resistance and heat resistance, but pure cotton towels have no irritation or side effects when in contact with the skin. They are beneficial to the human body and have good hygienic properties.

Terry cloth fabric-rayon towel

Rayon towels are fabrics woven from recycled fibers. Rayon towels are smooth, delicate, fluffy, soft, hygroscopic and breathable. They are a very popular towel material on the market. Regenerated fiber is made from natural cellulose as raw material, which is converted into cellulose sulfonate solution through physical and chemical methods, and then spun using a special process. It not only retains the natural, environmentally friendly, moisture-absorbing and breathable properties of natural fiber, but is smoother and smoother in quality and brighter in color. For example, viscose fiber, Modal fiber, Newel fiber, etc. are all commonly used raw materials for rayon beauty towels.

Terry cloth fabric-wood fiber towel

Wood fiber towels are made of 100% pure natural wood fiber and refined through advanced desugaring and degreasing processes. This material is naturally soft, oil-repellent, antibacterial, and antistatic, giving it new qualities unparalleled by other textiles. The waste from the entire production process of wood fiber can be naturally degraded and does not cause pollution to the environment, so it is called "21st century green fiber". Wood fiber is much better than traditional cotton, linen, silk, chemical fiber and other fibers in terms of strength, toughness, softness, etc., and its special ultra-fine microporous structure on the surface and inside makes its moisture absorption and breathability even better than commonly used fibers. Considered the most breathable and comfortable cotton.

Do your towels have a lot of fibers leave on the object？

In most cases, there is static electricity on the towel, which will adsorb the soft flocks; 

In rare cases, too much alkali is put in the dying process, and the fibers will be broken. 

For our warp knitting towel, Our company can do fibers slip rate less than 0.3%. 

During the dying process, we strictly control the proportion of the amount of alkali to reduce the burning of the pile loop, then reduce the fibers slip rate. 

At the same time, before cutting the cloth, we will carry out surface singeing treatment to deal with the surface attached shavings, so as to achieve fibers loss of less than 0.3% for the first using.

Should we wash the towel before using?

Yep, always wash first. Cool on low heat and DO NOT use any cleanout fluid, just in order to wipe off the float fibers.  

Has your towel color transfer and color fade？

Generally speaking, if there are multiple colors in a packaging bag, we will separate the colors with paper when packaging, so it will not cause cross-color. 

Light-colored towels, our company can do 60 degrees in warm water, the fading rate is less than 0.02%. 

If dark color，When dyeing, strictly control the color fixing agent to ensure that the color fixing effect is excellent; Add one more soap to wash away the surface float color, while the soap also strengthens the color fixing effect, thus controlling the fading rate.

For Edgeless towel， if the edge is very hard that will scratch the car. How about your edge?

For Edgeless towel,  it is cut by ultrasonic machine.  Use the high temperature and ultrasound. So if the edge have a little hard, that is normal. It is impossible to be very soft, if it is very soft, will have fibers slip, so we can control the hardness. This will not scratch the car。Please do not worry. 

How about your dyeing color difference problem ?

Usually we dye the fabric according to the Pantone color number chosen by the customer, and there is almost no noticeable color difference. 

Color difference does not exceed 0.3%. 
 
According to the Pantone color number of the customer, the dyeing agent is manually modulated. Generally, we will go through several modulation, and each modulation will be adjusted according to the color card to ensure the color difference rate. Finally, we will adjust three colors that are close to each other, and finally, after the color is confirmed and approved by our senior engineer, the dyeing process begins.

The yarn come out after washing.

We should wash the towel with softness mode

There are yarn run out after 20 time wash by machine.
 
In order to ensure that the machine washing 20 times yarn does not run off, we adjust the yarn, from 20Nm to 40Nm, to ensure the elasticity and durability of yarn up to 90%, also we adjust the details of manual stitching, will be possible to run off the place for adjustment and reinforcement.

How often should I wash my towel？

Good towels also need to be maintained well, otherwise the quality declines as quickly, maintenance is actually very simple, simple cleaning can be carried out. According to different uses, we recommend the cleaning time as follows, 

Car care: It is recommended to clean in time every day, the car care work is more fine, the use of more care products, the use of towels in the process of towels with more care liquid, it is recommended to clean in time after using, reduce the damage of care liquid towels, but also to prevent some care liquid hardening is not easy to clean. 

Car drying: It is recommended to clean once every 1-2 days. For car drying, the types of dirty things stained by the towel are not many, and they are relatively easy to clean stains, it is generally recommended to add some cleaning liquid to clean the towel. 

Household cleaning: If it is used in the kitchen, it is recommended to clean it every day. The kitchen oil is relatively large, and the oil is not easy to clean after drying on the towel and the towel is easy to hard, so it is recommended to add some dishwashing liquid to clean immediately after using,  tip: Before the towel wipe dirt, especially oil and other heavy dirt, it is best to keep the wet state, it will be easier to clean. 

Other household cleaning, it is recommended to clean once every 1-2 days. 

Personal care: It is recommended to wash every day, clean and sanitary, ventilated and dry, do not dry or exposed to high temperature, otherwise it will accelerate aging and hardening.

About the usage of the towel, we noticed that many towels are multifunctional, then what about their difference from each other?

Warp knitted towels 350gsm wax feel best, it is recommended to use wax under indoor construction. With slightly lower weight, it can be used as a multi-purpose towel for interior, wheel, electroplated parts and other parts. 

High and low piles towel. The most widely used, the long hair side can be used for water collection and wiping, the short side can be used for wax, due to the thickness of the buffer, the safety of the short side wax of the high and low piles towel is better than the warp knitted towel. 

Coral fleece towel. Usually used for wiping ash, waterless car washing, no-wash car and other construction with high safety requirements, long hair can better wrap and accommodate impurity particles, and the thickness is also the guarantee of buffer effect.
 
Waffle towel. Usually used for water collection, although this type of towel is thin, but the water absorption is very good, the water collection is relatively easy, not like coral velvet. 

Glass towel. This kind of towel uses a special weaving method, which effectively improves the hair removal problem, and the cleaning power is better, which can indeed make the difficult problem of wiping glass twice the result with half the effort.
