Fabric is interwoven with yarns, which are twisted and embraced by various fibers. Clothes are prone to pilling, often because some short fibers are mixed in the fibers of the yarn. After abrasion and friction, the fabric ran out of the yarn and curled into a ball.
Extended data
1. From the perspective of raw materials, if the length of cotton, wool and other fibers is longer, the number of fiber ends will be less, the cohesion between fibers will be greater, and the pilling degree will be lower;
2. From the technological point of view, in the process of twisting raw materials into yarn, the tighter the yarn body, the less likely it is to pilling. However, this does not mean that the tighter the twist, the better, because once the critical value is exceeded, the strength of the yarn will decrease.
