A pair of earthy yellow cotton casual pants turned pink and gray after dry cleaning; a gray-blue top turned green and gray after dry cleaning; and a brown-red dress turned beige, and so on. why is that? What kind of fabric is this? Why is it like this?
Traditional single-color fabrics are made through different dyeing processes. From beginning to end, a large amount of water, electricity, heat and other energy are needed. In order to save energy as much as possible and reduce environmental pollution, people have been exploring more energy-saving and scientific methods for producing clothing fabrics. So someone invented the process of producing single-color fabrics using printing instead of dyeing. Printing is done using a paint specially used for dyeing instead of printing. It is not water soluble, so clothes of this type of fabric can be washed. However, some organic solvents will have an impact on it, including dry cleaning agents. After dry cleaning, the color on the fabric will change. Although the fabric color can still be evenly and consistent, the color is no longer the same. Some have changed the color light, and some have changed the depth, but the overall direction is to change slightly lighter.
This kind of clothing is only suitable for washing water, not dry cleaning. Clothing that uses this type of fabric will also clearly indicate that it is not dry-cleaned on the clothing logo. It should also be mentioned that the friction fastness of this fabric is also relatively poor, so you need to pay attention to it when washing. Generally, it is suitable for manual washing. If machine washing is used, you need to turn the clothes over.
