Silk is a relatively good textile, a high-end product, high quality, and easy to wear , it is very comfortable to use and has a silky smooth feeling. However, due to the mixed products on the market, some friends do not know How to distinguish genuine silk from fake, and they will be easily deceived by merchants. Today, I will teach you some practical identification tips, hoping to help You!
1. Price identification method
When we buy silk, the most intuitive way to judge is to look at the price. The price of real silk fabric is about twice that of chemical fiber and simulated silk satin. Generally, the higher price is real silk.
2. Combustion method
When burning silk, there is no open flame visible. We can pull out some yarn and use a lighter to burn it. If you smell the hair is burning and the silk turns gray into black particles that can be crushed with your hands, then it is pure silk. When the imitation silk is exposed to fire, it will catch fire and smell like plastic. After the fire goes out, hard rubber will be left on the edge.
3. Observe color and feel
Another way is to observe the appearance of silk. First, lay the silk product flat. If the sample looks very smooth, has an elegant and soft luster, feels soft and elegant, and the silk threads are dense, use your hands to If there are wrinkles when you scratch it, you can basically judge it to be real silk. The higher the purity and the higher the density, the better the hand feel. Although the artificial silk fabric has been debonded and feels softer, the silk surface is dark and has no pearl luster; the chemical fiber fabric has a bright and dazzling luster and a stiffer feel.
4. Product number identification method
Domestic silk fabrics implement a unified product number consisting of 5 Arabic numerals. The first digit from the left represents the material number of the fabric. All silk fabrics are ” 1″, chemical fiber fabric is “2”, blended fabric is “3”, tussah silk fabric is “4”, rayon fabric is “5”.
