Why use cotton fabrics as bedding?

1. Hygroscopicity: Cotton fiber has good hygroscopicity. Under normal circumstances, the fiber can absorb moisture from the surrounding atmosphere. Its moisture content is 8-10%, so it contacts human skin and makes people feel soft. rather than stiff. If the humidity of cotton cloth increases and the surrounding temperature is high, all the moisture contained in the fiber will evaporate and dissipate, keeping the fabric in a water balance state and making people feel comfortable.

2. Moisturizing properties: Because 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 accumulate between the fibers, and the air is a poor conductor of heat and electricity. Therefore, pure cotton fiber textiles have good moisture retention and make people feel warm when wearing pure cotton bedding.

3. Heat resistance: Pure cotton fabrics have good heat resistance. When the temperature is below 110°C, it will only cause the water on the fabric to evaporate and will not damage the fibers. Therefore, pure cotton fabrics are not harmful to the fabrics at normal temperatures, such as wearing, using, washing, printing, and dyeing. There is no impact, thus improving the durability of pure cotton fabrics.

4. Alkali resistance: Cotton fiber has greater resistance to alkali. Cotton fiber will not be damaged in an alkali solution. This property is beneficial for washing, disinfecting, and removing impurities after consumption. It can also be used to clean pure cotton. Textiles are dyed, printed, and processed in various processes to produce new varieties of cotton fabrics.

5. Hygiene: Cotton fiber is a natural fiber, its main component is cellulose, and there are also a small number of waxy substances, nitrogen-containing substances, and pectin. Pure cotton fabrics have been tested and practiced in many aspects. There is no irritation or negative effects when the fabric comes into contact with the skin. It is beneficial to the human body when worn for a long time and has good hygienic performance.
