Sock manufacturers tell you what combed cotton is? As the name suggests, combed cotton itself is also a kind of cotton. Combed cotton refers to a textile process. Compared with pure cotton, combed cotton is more delicate. ), leaving long and neat fibers.
The production method of cotton yarn is more complicated. Generally speaking, there are currently two spinning methods, namely carded cotton spinning and worsted spinning:

(1) Carding and spinning process: cotton matching→opening and cleaning→carding→drawing→roving→spinning→post-processing→finished product inspection.

(2) Worsted spinning process: cotton matching→opening and cleaning→carding→combing→drawing frame→roving→spinning→post-processing→finished product inspection.

Cotton, the most common material used in socks, already has several advantages:

① Hygroscopicity: Cotton fiber has good hygroscopicity. Under normal circumstances, the fiber can absorb moisture into the surrounding atmosphere, and its moisture content is 8-10%, so it touches human skin, making people feel soft and soft. Not stiff.

② Moisturizing property: Since cotton fiber is a poor conductor of heat and electricity, the thermal conductivity is extremely low, and because cotton fiber itself has the advantages of porosity and high elasticity, a large amount of air can be accumulated between the fibers, and the air is a poor conductor of heat and electricity. , Therefore, pure cotton fiber textiles have good moisturizing properties, and wearing pure cotton socks makes people feel warm.

③Healthy: Cotton fiber is a natural fiber, and its main component is cellulose. The pure cotton fabric has been inspected and practiced in many aspects. There is no irritation or negative effect between the fabric and the skin. It is beneficial and harmless to the human body when worn for a long time.

The quality of the yarn spun from combed cotton is better. The fabric made of combed cotton has a higher quality level in texture, washability and durability. More importantly, the socks made of combed cotton are smoother and more durable. It has toughness and is not easy to pilling, and the quality of socks is more stable.
