Little Dictionary Terminov

Microfiber (microfiber) - the name came from the production technology of ultrathin fibers, the diameter of which is only 0.06 millimeters. These fibers are ten times thinner of natural silk fibers, thirty-cotton, in forty-natural wool, a hundred times - a human hair! Microfibrous fibers can be obtained using certain technological processes of bundle of any natural (cotton), artificial (viscose, acetate, cellulose) or synthetic fibers. The yarn with the attachment of the microfiber is very soft and pleasant to the touch.

Bamboo. Bamboo fiber is a type of viscose, only not from pine wood, but from bamboo. Bamboo fibers are distinguished by an unusual porous structure and makes them hygroscopic than cotton. Bamboo fibers absorb 60% more moisture and 20% passes more air than similar cotton fibers. The cloth from the bamboo does not cause irritation and has natural antimicrobial properties, since it contains a component that prevents the reproduction of bacteria.

Viscose - artificial yarn (obtained from natural raw materials - cellulose - by chemical processing). These are very soft silky threads that in the heat are cold and practically do not electrify. The disadvantage of this yarn is that it is easily frozen products; When washing, they require a careful relationship - it is impossible to rub too much and squeeze, otherwise the fibers are torn, and the thing becomes untidy, "lochmata."

Mercerization - Immersion for a few minutes in a cold strong caustic soda solution. Gives a resistant shine, increases strength.

Polyester - used in mixtures with any materials to increase the strength of the yarn, but it is found in pure form (For example: Teddy yarn, ribbon yarn).

Acrylic - Its advantage is the volume. Due to the volume of acrylic reminds on the type of wool. Used to add and replace wool, as well as to relieve cotton and other vegetable yarns.

Nylon - Branded trade name of the synthetic polyamide of Dupont.

Nylon and Lycra - As a rule, it is not used in pure form. Used in mixtures with natural and synthetic yarn to give them elasticity, as well as bonding hairs (mohair with nylon).

Lurex and methanit - Shiny threads, in the mixture yarn the effect of "metal shine" is attached.

Mohair (Cosa hair) - Wool angora goats - one of the warmest natural materials. A high-end mohair is obtained from a goat at the first haircut (Kids Mohair), the next level is a mohair from goats-two-year-olds (Adult Mohair). One hundred percent mohair can not be: it simply disintegrates into separate fibers. To increase the strength of the thread, the moharger is mixed with other fibers - acrylic or nylon. When mixed with a nylon, the mohair acquires shine and additional strength. The thread fluffy and light, 2 times lighter than the woolen thread of the same length, which gives an economical flow rate of yarn.

And some more designations that can be found on fur coats with wool

Pura Lana Merino. The word Pura means clean, so this phrase is translated "pure merino wool". For new articles and still unfamiliar buyer, manufacturers used the word "clean" to make the emphasis on the fact that other types of wool are not added. If 100% Merino is written on the cross, it also means that the wool is used only by Australian Merinos.

Any wool has coarser fibers, thin fibers and the fibers (these fibers are located closer to the skin of the animal and, of course, very little).
Merino Fine means that yarn is made of fine fibers Merinos.
Merino Extrafine means that the yarn is made of the finest fibers of Merinos.

Lana Vergine Merino means that the yarn is traded from the wool of a young merino.
Lana Vergine Merino Fine means that the yarn is made of thin fibers of the wool of young merino.

Of course, the thinner of the fiber, the softer yarn. Therefore, even without holding wool in your hands, you can determine the wool of which article is softer. If you compare Lana Merino and Lana Merino Extrafine, then significantly softer Merino Extrafine (in general it does not happen the most soft wool), Merino Fine software will be contemporated between them.

Lana Vergine Merino from the wool of young merino softer wool Lana Merino.
If you compare Lana Vergine Merino Fine and Lana Merino Extrafine (from thin fibers of the young merino and the fibers of Merinos), then softer second, although the difference is not very significant.

Woolmark is a European quality mark, which is assigned to the best products from pure wool (yarn and tissues).
Superwash means that after multiple washes, the product does not lose its original appearance.



Instice on labels of washing clothes:


In addition to the above temperature modes, there are other, designated by the corresponding numbers in the "Tazika" icon: for example, you can also see 95 (it is possible washing even with boiling), 70 and 60. The horizontal bands below have similar values. In some countries (USA and Canada), instead of digital values, points are used when one point means 30 °, and each new increases the value by 10, and so up to 70, and 6 points mean 95 ° C.

Natural fabric care Cotton You can wash at any temperature in washing machine and arms universal means For washing. It is possible to shrink products after washing by 3-5%.
Silk Requires delicate circulation. Hand wash is recommended by special means for washing wool and silk at temperatures up to 30 ° C. Does not tolerate high temperatures. Colored things erase separately. Do not soak.
Wool - Manual wash or washing in the car is recommended if it provides a program for washing the wool, at a temperature not higher than 30 ° C. Use special tools for washing wool. After washing, do not express much. Dry the product, gently spreading them on the towel.

Care of artificial fabrics Reion, Viscose, Modal It is recommended to wash at low temperatures. Handwash Preferred. Shrinking 4-7% when washing. Use soft tools for washing.

Synthetic fabric care Taper, Lycra, Dakron, Polyesters, Polyamides, Elastane - Washing in the car at a temperature of 40 ° C is recommended. Does not tolerate hot iron (may melt!)

General principles that should be followed when caring for tissues
- Do not use whitening means if this is not specifically stipulated on the product label.
- Use soft tools for washing (liquid or powders).
- Invalid dosage of detergent can cause harm.
- Dosage recommendations are indicated on the packaging of detergent.
- When washing in the car, put underwear in special bags.
- Do not soak neither printed nor colored fabrics.
- Do not dry in the car.
- Before washing, pay attention to the care recommendations indicated on the product.
- Sorted underwear by type of washing. New colored underwear at the first wash erase separately. Color underwear of bright and dark colors erase separately.
- If the care symbols denote the delicate washing mode, it is desirable to double the amount of linen. It will fight it from unnecessary twisting.
- Products made of synthetic fibers and their mixtures are erased separately from cotton and linen.
- Dark materials have an excess of coloring substances. This excess must be removed by manual washing.

Any factory fabric necessarily has a marking indicating the composition of the fibers from which it is made. Such data are indicated both on rolls and on tags on fabric samples. Often, the name of the material of the fibers is written entirely, but the abbreviated designations are most often used.

Information about the composition of the fabric is important for many reasons:

  1. It primarily determines the mechanical and external characteristics of the fabric, its wear resistance, shrinkage and other parameters.
  2. Different type of fibers at cost may vary at times. As a rule, cost more synthetic.
  3. Knowing the composition of the fabric can with sufficient accuracy of confidence to assume the appropriate washing mode, drying and ironing (if it is generally permitted).
  4. From the intended recording mode directly follows the scope of application. For example, 100% flax tulle in the kitchen will inevitably collect fat, and it will need to be regularly washed, which will definitely lead to a shrinkage of the fabric. Conclusion - it is better not to use this type of fabric in an inappropriate place.

The order of arrangement of brief designations for mixed tissues is sorted in descending percentage. For example, 53% PES, 40% VI, 7% Li

In the case of equal content, the sequence may be any.

Fabrics, 100% made of one type of fiber may instead of "100%" to have the "All" designation 100% CO \u003d ALL CO.

In case the percentage of the material is less than 5%, such a fiber can be designated as "Other Fiber" (Other Fiber) or Other Fibers.
This rule does not apply to characteristic fibers, radically changing the properties of the tissue, for example, 1% of the Lurex is quite enough to make the fabric by sparks. The same applies to spandex and some other special fibers. Also "other fiber" cannot be sealing wool.

The main thing is the thermoregulation, i.e. Ability to adapt and maintain the temperature of the human body depending on the external influence. In the summer he can provide good breathability, and warm in winter. Silk very quickly evaporates moisture and dries, requires careful circulation.
When washing, silk is very much lins, so it is necessary to wash it only by hand at 30 degrees and with soft special tool. The piece of silk is needed to rinse first in warm, then in cold water. Silk cannot be rubbed, squeeze, unscrew, and dry in the drying device. Wet products Carefully wrap in the fabric, slightly press water and hang or lay out in a horizontal position. Stroking on a certain mode.

VI Viscosa.
Viscose
Viscose Viscose is concentrated solution Natural compounds - hydrate cellulose fibers.
The viscose fiber is the most versatile from chemical fibers, it is close to the cotton. The fiber has a loose structure, resembles silk in appearance, has excellent hygiene properties - breathable, has increased hygroscopicity, great strength, braid well.
The disadvantage is a sharp shine, a strong shrinkage when washing, loss of strength in the wet state. In connection with these, it is not recommended to unscrew and squeeze hard. It is used very widely in its pure form and in combination with other fibers. An improved viscose fiber is a satell, which has little long, sits little, durable and brilliant.
