Can silk be dry cleaned? How to choose silk? In fact, silk clothes are recommended for dry cleaning.
Because silk is composed of protein fiber, it is more delicate, and high-grade silk clothes can only be dry-cleaned, because high-grade silk clothes will use long fiber as raw material, and long fiber water is more easily deformed and damaged. In the middle and low grades, short fibers are used, and short fibers are not a problem, but a small amount of shrinkage will occur. There is also some silk fabrics that have been shrunk and then processed into garments so that they can be washed, but high-grade silk fabrics will not do this. Of course, the dry cleaning is not as good as water washing, and the silk is generally worn close to the body, comfortable, and people who pay attention to hygiene also like to wash, but it is recommended that the washing should not be machine washed, and add some laundry detergent suitable for silk.
How to choose silk:
1. Look at the quality of silk: see if there is any jump wire or jumper in the horizontal flow of the embroidered clothes;
2. Look at the process: pay attention to whether the sewing is neat, whether the stitches are detached, skewed and whether there is a hairy phenomenon;
3. Consider the shrinkage rate: Since the silk is made of natural silk as the raw material, the shrinkage rate of the normal warp after the launching is 0.5%~3%, and the finished product should be selected to be larger than the actual demand. If it is cloth, before the production. Soak the fabric in clean water for more than 5 hours, let the fabric absorb moisture completely, dry it, and soak it for the second time. After that, the silk will not be deformed after two dipping and drying.
