Washed cloth is a fabric that has been treated with a special dyeing and finishing process to give the fabric a slightly wrinkled washed style. From the surface, washed cloth shows natural washed wrinkles and has old wrinkles. The feel of the clothes caters to consumers&#8217; psychological appeal for &#8220;retro&#8221; and &#8220;nature&#8221; <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0px;max-width: 100%;clear: both;min-height: 1em;width: inherit;font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Clear Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\">Washed cotton has soft hand feel, stable size, comfortable fit, slightly wrinkled appearance, soft surface, and natural wrinkle changes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.8em 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%;clear: both;min-height: 1em;width: inherit;font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Clear Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\">Washed fabrics have a wide range of adaptability, including pure cotton, polyester\/cotton, polyester filament, various knitted fabrics, etc. All gray cloth raw materials can be processed into washed cloth.

It is then chemically treated to react with chemical additives and fiber molecules to shape the wrinkles of the fabric, thereby forming long-lasting and stable wrinkles and a unique natural style. <\/span><\/span><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\"><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 15px 0px 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%;clear: both;min-height: 1em\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%;clear: both;min-height: 1em\"><br style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\"><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\" style=\"margin: 1rem 0px;padding: 0px 0px 0.3em 0.3em;font-size: 1.25em;max-width: 100%;line-height: 1.225;cursor: text;border-bottom-width: 1px;border-bottom-style: solid;border-left-width: 8px;border-left-style: solid;width: inheritt;font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Clear Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\">Washed Key points of cotton technology<\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.8em 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%;clear: both;min-height: 1em;width: inherit;font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Clear Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><span class=\" \" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\"><span style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\">In the usual fabric dyeing and finishing process, in order to improve the flatness, smoothness and dimensional stability of the fabric, it must go through The three processes of singeing, shaping and mercerization <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.8em 0px;padding: 0px;clear: both;min-height: 1em;width: inherit;font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Clear Sans', 'Helvetica Neue ', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size: 16px\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\"><span class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px;max-width: 100%\">But these three processes are different from those of washed cotton.The grid is completely opposite, singeing will remove the hairiness on the surface of the fabric, shaping will eliminate wrinkles, and mercerization will hinder the shrinkage of the fiber at high temperature.
