What is the difference between lycra cotton and pure cotton

First, the ratio is different

Pure cotton fabric: the ratio is 100% cotton fabric,

Lycra cotton fabric: the ratio is 10% or 5% Lycra (a stretch fiber, the scientific name is spandex)+90% or 95% cotton;

Second, the elasticity is different

Pure cotton fabric: made of natural materials, pure cotton is not as resilient as Lycra cotton, but it is very soft;

Lycra cotton fabric: outstanding extensibility, for knitwear, its multi-directional extension is determined by the fabric itself, Lycra brings only stretch and resilience. Made of lycra cotton, there is no sense of urgency, can stretch freely.

Three, different hygroscopicity

Pure cotton fabric: moisture absorption is general;

Lycra cotton fabric: has a special chemical structure, moisture absorption is better.

Fourth, different heat resistance

Cotton fabric: not heat resistant;

Lycra cotton fabric: better heat resistance.

Five, alkaline resistance is different

Cotton fabric: no alkali resistance;

Lycra cotton fabric: alkaline resistance is better.
