In the same yarn, a yarn composed of two or more fibers is called a blended yarn. For example, such a yarn: 40s T/C65/35 is the yarn that polyester accounts for 65% of cotton. 35%, others such as TR yarn (polyester and viscose) are blended yarns. Fabrics woven from blended yarns are called blended fabrics.

Correspondingly, there are interwoven fabrics, that is, in the same fabric, the warp direction is a pure spinning raw material, and the weft direction is another raw material.

For blended fabrics and interwoven fabrics, the composition of the fabric may be the same, but the performance and appearance will be completely different.

Blended fabrics generally mean that the yarn is blended with two or more components du. Therefore, this fabric has the advantages of these two components. And by adjusting the proportion of ingredients, you can get more characteristics of one of the ingredients.

Blended spinning generally refers to staple fiber blending, that is, two fibers of different compositions are mixed together in the form of staple fiber. For example, polyester-cotton blended fabric, also known as TC fabric, is woven with yarn blended with polyester staple fiber and cotton fiber. Its advantages are:

It has the appearance and feel of all-cotton cloth, weakens the polyester fiber's chemical fiber gloss and chemical fiber feel, and improves the grade.

It has high polyester strength, improves the tear strength of the fabric, and is stronger and more durable than cotton

Improve the color fastness. Because polyester is colored at high temperature, the color fastness is higher than that of cotton. Therefore, the color fastness of polyester-cotton blended fabric has also been improved compared to cotton.

The blending of staple fibers allows the properties of each component to be exerted evenly.

In the same way, other blended components can also play their own advantages and meet some functional or comfort or economic requirements.
