Printing is to prepare various dyes and pigments into printing pastes and apply them locally on the fabric to obtain patterns of various colors.

Printing can be divided into reactive printing and pigment printing:

1. Reactive printing: printing that uses reactive dyes to penetrate into fabrics;

2. Paint printing: printing formed by covering fabric with paint.

Reactive printing fabrics have bright colors, good color fastness, soft hand feel, and do not fade after long-term washing; paint printing and dyeing are dyeing and printing of woven fabrics, which are generally easy to fade. There are many options for printing patterns. Printing is mainly used in cellulose fiber fabrics, silk fabrics, chemical fibers and their blended fabrics.

Weft-knitted fabrics have good elasticity both transversely and vertically, while warp-knitted and woven jacquards have no elasticity.

Jacquard fabric has a fine and smooth texture, good gloss, good hand feel, good drape and breathability, high color fastness (yarn dyeing), no deformation, no fading, and good comfort. Compared with printed and embroidered fabrics, the jacquard process is more complex and the cost is higher.

Burned out
Burnout cloth, also known as embossed cloth, is a new type of fabric. Burnt-out fabric is made of two types of fibers with different acid resistance, blended or spun into core yarns, and used as warp and weft yarns to weave into burnt-out gray fabric. Then, it undergoes printing and dyeing processes in acidic solution to cause part of the fiber to dissolve and rot, becoming burnt-out fabric. Fabric.
