Class of fabric
Fabrics can be classified in a number of ways based on their origin, nature and use. Here are some common ways to sort fabrics:
Natural fiber fabric:
Cotton: Made of natural cotton fibers, soft, breathable and hygroscopic.
Linen: Made of natural hemp fiber, it has the characteristics of cool, breathable and hygroscopic.
Silk: Made of silk, with smooth, soft and bright characteristics, often used to make high-end clothing and bedding.
Wool: made from animal hair, such as wool, rabbit hair, etc., with warm and comfortable properties.
Chemical fiber fabric:
Polyester: belongs to polyester fiber, has excellent elasticity and resilience, fabric crisp, wrinkle-free, good shape retention, high strength, durable wear, and has excellent light resistance, but easy to produce static electricity and dust absorption and moisture absorption poor.
Nylon fabric: also known as nylon, is a kind of polyamide fiber, dyeing is good, wear light, has good waterproof and wind resistance, high wear resistance, strength and elasticity are very good.
Spandex: has excellent elasticity, also known as elastic fiber or lycra, good elasticity, smooth feel, small moisture absorption, good weather and chemical resistance, machine washable, but poor heat resistance.
Viscose fiber: wood, cotton short velvet, reed and other materials containing natural cellulose chemical materials processing, also known as artificial cotton, with the basic properties of natural fibers, good dyeing performance, fabric soft, good moisture absorption.
Acetate fiber: made of natural materials containing cellulose by chemical processing, with silk style, wear light and comfortable, has good elasticity and elastic recovery performance, but not to wash, poor color fastness.
Blended fabric: is the natural fiber and chemical fiber in accordance with a certain proportion of mixed textile fabric, combining the advantages of natural fiber and chemical fiber.
In addition, according to the characteristics and uses of the fabric, it can also be subdivided into soft fabrics, cool fabrics, glossy fabrics, thick and heavy fabrics and transparent fabrics. Soft fabrics such as knitted fabrics and silk fabrics, cool fabrics have clear lines and a sense of volume, glossy fabrics have a smooth surface and can reflect light, thick and heavy fabrics are thick and crisp, transparent fabrics are light and transparent.

In general, the classification of fabrics is diverse, each fabric has its own unique properties and uses, the selection of fabrics need to take into account the needs of the product and the use of the environment. For more detailed information on fabric classification, it is recommended to consult textile professional books or consult textile industry experts.
