Poplin is a fine plain fabric woven from cotton, polyester, wool and cotton-polyester blends. It is a fine, smooth and shiny plain cotton fabric. Although it is plain with flat cloth, it is very different: poplin has a good drape, can create a more delicate feel and is visually rich; Most of the flat cloth is medium in thickness, and it cannot be made into a very delicate feel, and the feeling is simple. According to the different spinning projects, it can be divided into carded poplin and combed poplin. Divided by weaving colors, there are hidden striped lattice poplin, satin satin poplin, jacquard poplin, color strip check poplin, shimmer poplin, etc. According to the printing and dyeing processing of natural color poplin cloth, there are bleached poplin, variegated poplin and printed poplin.
All kinds of poplin fabrics have the characteristics of clean and flat cloth, fine texture, full grain grain, luster and softness, soft and smooth hand feeling. However, poplin fabric has a disadvantage, the garment sewn with it is prone to longitudinal cracks, because the warp and weft density of poplin are very different, and the strength between the warp and weft is unbalanced, resulting in the warp strength is greater than the weft strength nearly twice the result.
Cotton poplin is a major variety of cotton. It is mainly used as shirts, summer shirts and daily pants. Plain cotton fabric, with compact structure, uniform cloth, clear texture, smooth and soft, silky feeling and other characteristics. The surface of the fabric has pronounced, symmetrical diamond-shaped particles composed of warp protrusions.
Compared with muslin, poplin has a tighter warp direction, and the ratio of warp and weft density is about 2:1. Poplin is made of evenly dried warp and weft yarns, woven into a tightly structured grey cloth, which is then soldered, refined, mercerized, bleached and printed, dyed and arranged. It is suitable for shirts, outerwear and other clothing, and can also be used as an embroidery base cloth. With warp and weft raw materials, there are ordinary poplin, fully combed poplin, half-thread poplin (warp strands); Divided by weaving style, there are hidden striped hidden poplin, satin satin check poplin, jacquard poplin, yarn-dyed poplin, color strip color check poplin, shimmer poplin, etc.; Printing and dyeing processing is divided into bleached poplin, variegated poplin, printed poplin, etc.; Some varieties are also finished with rainproof, iron-free, anti-shrinkage, etc. The above kinds of poplin can be used as raw materials for pure cotton yarn, and can also be used as raw materials for polyester and cotton blended yarns.
