It is widely used in clothing fabric, lining material, home textile and other products, and is highly favored by consumers.

The variety of knitted fabric category

• Circular wovenfabric, or weft knitted fabric.  

        Main products are: knitting single jersey, interlock, rib cloth, mesh cloth, polar fleece, air layer, polyester covering, terry cloth, flannelette, cut flannelette, artificial fur, and so on many, there are a lot of mixed changes such as: knit organization, jacquard stretch change organizations, tuck organization, plating, gasket, terry change organizations, etc.

The production of knitwear

        Knitting cloth production mainly has four links: spinning, weaving, dyeing and integrity.

1.Spinning: The process of turning various kinds of woven fibers into yarns.

2.Weaving: A fabric in which the yarn is formed into a coil by weaving a needle into a coil, and the coil is placed in a series at a time.

3.Dyeing: The process of coloring a fibrous material with a dye or pigment to give it a certain fastness.

4.Integrity: through physical and chemical processing, the appearance and internal quality of the fabric can be improved, and the wearability of the fabric can be enhanced or given special functions.

The characteristics and application scope of knitted fabrics

        Knitwear is characterized by softness, moisture absorption, perspiration and warmth, and most of them have excellent elasticity and extensibility. Compared with woven cloth, it is high yield and is suitable for small batch production.Knitwear is comfortable, close-fitting and can fully reflect the human body curve.Knitted fabric is the most widely used fabric for children's wear.The raw materials are mainly natural fibers such as cotton, linen, silk and wool, as well as chemical fibers such as polyamide, acrylic and dacron.Knitted fabrics vary in structure, vary in variety, and have distinctive appearance.Used in the past for underwear, T-shirts, etc.Nowadays, with the rapid development of knitting industry and the birth of new finishing technology, knitted fabric wear performance greatly improved, almost applicable to all categories of children's wear.

Other applications of knitted fabrics

        Knitwear is soft in texture, has good anti-wrinkle and air permeability, but also has greater elongation and elasticity, suitable for underwear, tights and sportswear, etc.Knitted fabric can also be used as outerwear after changing structure and improving dimensional stability.Knitwear can be first woven into grey cloth and then cut and sewed into various kinds of knitwear. It can also be directly woven into fully formed or partially formed products, such as socks, gloves, etc.
