Difference Between Silk and Brocade, What is the Difference Between Silk and Silk Satin?

1. Different degrees of smoothness: satin silk is generally light, and silk is not light. This is also the most intuitive difference between the two.

2. Different processing methods: silk is rich in 18 kinds of amino acids.

With the protein substance, it has a good nutritional effect on the human body, and the correct washing and maintenance of silk clothes is very important, otherwise it will affect the life of silk clothes.

Silk clothing is slightly acidic like the human body** and should not be washed with alkaline detergents or soaps. It's best to use a small amount of neutral detergent (such as dishwashing detergent or fruit and vegetable detergent), which is also something to be aware of.

3. Different uses: Silk is a kind of silk fabric in silk.

It is relatively thin, and is generally used to make pajamas or summer single clothes (high-grade silk fabrics are also used to make cheongsams), but it is easy to wrinkle. The fabric of satin is thicker, and it is mostly used as the face of a winter jacket or a quilt (which is rarely used now).

Silk refers to material properties! (e.g. silk, cotton, linen, etc.) brocade refers to the weaving process of fabrics!

For example: brocade, tribute spinning, etc.) Hehe Reply to Master Chen Liping, I am the chief designer of Tianjin Hetai and St. Loude brands, and I can design more than 300 sets of clothing in less than 5 months :)

That's enough for you to go with a myriad of options :) hehe.

Silk will not deform and will not attract insects, it is a little cool in the hand, it is mostly used in summer clothes, it has good air permeability, the volume is very small, and it is very soft!

Silk is smooth, plastic, not as soft as silk, just like the cheongsam worn by Maggie Cheung in "In the Mood for Love"! The southern daughter wants a satin quilt when she gets married, it's booming!

In fact, it's all about the same, because silk refers to the material properties of textiles! (e.g. silk, cotton, linen, etc.) and brocade refers to the weaving process of fabrics! (e.g. brocade, tribute spinning, etc.)

That is, the brocade you buy may also be produced from silk raw materials.

There is no difference between silk and silk diamonds, both are silk, but the weaving of silk satin and silk is different.

Silk brocade is a large category of colorful silk fabrics obtained by dyeing cooked silk weaving. Yunjin is a silk fabric that represents the highest level of technology.

The reason why Yunjin has become the first brocade in China and cannot be replaced by machines so far lies in its unique makeup process: the weaving technique of using the warp and weft (also called through the warp and weft) breaks through the pattern limitations of the traditional brocade and can weave patterns as you like.

In fact, silk brocade now mostly refers to brocade, because most of the brocade is silk-colored fabric, so it is called. Brocade is not a kind of fabric, including the very famous Yun brocade, Song brocade, Shu brocade and other traditional handicrafts and modern technology weaving brocade and so on.

Features of Yunjin fabric:

Yunjin has its own unique style in the design art, the pattern layout is rigorous and solemn, the pattern changes are generalized, the color is strong and contrasting, and the gold is often used to hook the edge, and the white phase is alternate to form a color halo transition.

The texture of cloud brocade is generally relatively tight and heavy, and the theme of the flower pattern has large miscellaneous entwined branches and various moire, etc., and the style is rough and full. Yunjin in the Ming and Qing dynasties Yunjin was mainly a tribute for the court, and after the late Qing Dynasty, it began to form commodity production, and was very popular with Mongolian, Tibetan, Manchu and other ethnic minorities.

Lidka is not silk.

Brocade is a kind of fabric that has been dyed and colored threads are interwoven through warp and weft, with bright colors, and are generally rent and flowers, that is, there is a convex sense of hand touch, and the visual sense of three-dimensionality. It is worth mentioning the warp and weft of the current brocade.

Basically, silk is not used, and it is all firmness and dyeing.

Very good chemical filament. Silk silk does not refer to the cloth made of pure natural silk fibers, and the two weaving processes and raw materials are different.

The structure of silk.

Raw silk. It is made of several cocoon filaments hugging each other and bonded by sericin, containing about 80% filament, 20% sericin left and right. Raw silk is a porous fiber with a void capacity of about 35% and a maximum void diameter of 1 micron. Due to the triangular cross-section of the cocoon filament.

And the cocoon silk is arranged in irregular conical spirals and fixed in the raw silk in a slight tortuous state, so the cross-sectional shape of the raw silk is approximately oval (see figure). The cross-section of raw silk with a denier of 22 denier is about 60 70 μm in length and 40 50 μm in short diameter.

Clothes made of silk, tall and high-grade, deeply loved by the majority of consumers, but silk clothes are more expensive, unattainable, some manufacturers found this business opportunity, developed a silk fabric similar to silk, and ** is cheaper, sales are hot, why is silk satin cheap, what kind of fabric is silk satin?

Real silk** is cheaper probably because of the cheaper raw materials used. Real silk uses pure cotton fiber as raw material, and the production cost is low, so it is cheap. In addition, it may also be the leftover of the tail order, in this case, the color of the real silk is mostly dull or there are some problems with the quality, so the price reduction is done to obtain working capital.

There is also the possibility of buying fakes, which are similar to real silk, but there is a certain gap when you look closely.

Real silk is a new type of fabric. In the middle of pure cotton and silk, it is made of pure cotton fibers, similar to chiffon texture, more delicate and luster, but there is still a certain gap with silk. Silk is made of silk or tapioca silk, which consumes more labor and is expensive.

Whereas, real silk can be produced mechanically on a large scale and has a low production cost.

Real silk is not only cheap, but also has a lot of benefits. It is good for the prevention of diseases such as arteriosclerosis, and can also increase the activity of human cells and delay the speed of aging. At the same time, it can also protect ** from sunburn, can absorb the ultraviolet rays of the sun shining on the human body, and has good air permeability.

1. Different thicknesses: satin is thicker and heavier; Whereas, silk is lighter and thinner.

2. Different materials: there are many kinds of satin, so its materials are varied, such as soft satin, brocade, antique satin, cotton and spinning, etc.; Silk belongs to protein fibers and is a fabric made from silk.

3. Different uses: satin is more suitable for quilt fabrics; Silk is mostly used as a raw material for clothing, making summer clothes and cheongsams and so on.

4. Different hand feel: satin feels smooth; Silk does not have a smooth feel.

Precautions for washing silk clothes:

First of all, silk is weakly acidic and needs to be cleaned with neutral detergents, so be careful not to use too much, and do not increase the amount at will.

The second is to choose by hand, or send to a professional dry cleaner, silk clothes are not suitable for washing in a washing machine, and hand washing should pay attention to the strength, not vigorously rubbed.

Again, the suitable water temperature should be 30 degrees, too hot is easy to damage the clothes.

Finally, it is air-dried in a cool place, and the finished silk fabric cannot be exposed to the sun, which is easy to fade and damage the clothes.

1. The definition is different: satin generally refers to silk fabrics. Silk is a kind of textile, woven with silk or synthetic fibers, man-made fibers, short filaments, etc., and woven or interwoven with silk or rayon.

2. The classification is different: there are many kinds of satin: wide satin, satin and so on. Silk has many classifications according to different standards, and is divided into real silk, human silk, synthetic fiber silk, and interwoven silk according to raw materials and organizational methods.

Silk is divided into 14 categories according to the fabric organization, warp and weft combination, processing technology and silk surface expression shape. Among them, except for yarn, luo, velvet regardless of flower and ground organization, other categories are based on local organization. Each major type of silk can have plain (practice, bleaching, dyeing) or flower (weaving, printing) performance.

3. The history is different: silk In ancient legends, the wife of the Yellow Emperor invented "raising silkworms and taking silk". Silk is in the middle of the Neolithic period five or six thousand years ago, China began to raise silkworms, take silk, and weave silk.

The silk you are referring to is all silk varieties, and modern silk uses many old names, such as crepe, silk, and some foreign words, such as georgette, taffeta, etc. It is classified according to the different organizational structure, raw materials used, processing technology, texture, appearance and main use.

Luo: Completely or partially made of Luo tissue silk fabric that is intertwined with each other by warp threads to form pepper holes. There are Zhiluo, Hengluo, Hualuo, and Suluo.

Aya: Silk fabric with twill weave or twill change weave, and the fabric surface has an oblique weave, and the texture is light and thin. In the early days, the surface of the fabric was stacked with mountain-shaped twills, "looking at it like the principle of ice", so it was called Aya.

Silk: Silk fabric with plain weave or changing weave, interlaced warp and weft. Silk is a general term for silk fabrics. Its characteristics are: the silk surface is crisp and fine, and the feel is smooth. Silk fabrics without other obvious characteristics can be called silk.

Satin: A silk fabric with a satin weave or satin variation weave with a smooth, bright and fine appearance.

The silk and satin you said are all woven from silk, which is misleading to you by the seller, and the difference is whether the mulberry silk or the tussah silk is used, you can compare it yourself. There are two main types of silk produced in China. One is the commonly known mulberry silk, which is the silk drawn out of the cocoon of the mulberry silkworm knot, which is white and yellow in color, delicate and smooth to the touch, and has a faint smell unique to animal fibers.

The quilt made of this silk is particularly soft and snug; At the same time, there is also a disadvantage, that is, after using it for a period of time, the gap between the silk is easy to tighten, resulting in the quilt becoming thinner, and the effect of satiety is not as good as before.

Another type of silk is tussah silk, which is produced from tussah cocoons. Silkworm is a wild silkworm, mainly living in the north, it is artificially stocked in the wild mountain oak forest, it feeds on the leaves of the oak. Compared with mulberry silk, the color of tussah silk is darker, and its original color is gray-black.

This color material is usually not acceptable to consumers as quilts; Therefore, in the actual production process, the silk is often faded with acidic chemicals, so it has a certain degree of harm to human health. In addition, there is more "sericin" in the silk body of the tussah silk, which causes it to feel rougher, not smooth enough, and the luster is relatively dull; Moreover, the rigidity of tussah silk is also relatively strong, and it is not very close-fitting.

Lidka is not silk. Li brocade is not silk, and mulberry silk is silk. Mulberry silk is a continuous long fiber formed by the coagulation of silk liquid secreted when ripe silkworms form cocoons, also known as "natural silk", and many production enterprises are also called "silk cotton".

Like wool, it is one of the earliest animal fibers used by human beings, and according to different foods, it is divided into mulberry silkworms, quercus silkworms, cassava silkworms, camphor silkworms, willow silkworms and natural silkworms. The strips of silk drawn from a single cocoon are called cocoon silk.

Lidka is not silk. Brocade is a kind of celery fabric that has been dyed by Zheng Ye's dyed threads through warp and weft interweaving, and the color is bright, and it is generally jacquard.
