Canvas factory takes you to understand the difference between canvas and cotton

Canvas is a thicker fabric. Named for its original use for sails. Generally, plain weave is used, a small amount of twill weave is used, and multi-strand threads are used for warp and weft yarns. It and cotton do not belong to each other. The composition of the canvas may be cotton, hemp, or other ingredients such as polyester-cotton. The two of them are not the same kind of things that can be compared. Canvas is the organization and cotton is the composition. The biggest difference between canvas and cotton is that the warp and weft yarns of canvas are composed of two or more strands. Generally speaking, cotton cloth is a fabric made of cotton, which means that the composition must be all cotton. Secondly, the concept of cotton cloth is very broad. It can be said that any fabric made of cotton yarn can be called cotton cloth. But to understand it in the scope of daily life, it is generally believed that cotton cloth is made of single-strand, relatively fine cotton yarn, which has the characteristics of softness, moisture absorption, breathability and warmth. Usually cotton is priced by the weight per square meter as the gram unit, and in a few cases, the ounce is also used as the weight unit. There are two different weaving methods of plain weave and twill weave, which are common in daily life. Most quilts and down jackets contain cotton, and that's the way cotton is. The range of cotton cloth is relatively wide. Cotton means that the cloth is made of cotton, and there are many types, such as plain weave, canvas, wash cloth, yarn-dyed checkered cloth, etc.; canvas and wash cloth refer to the style of the cloth, Semi-bleached cloth can also be a style of cloth. It is usually made of cotton. When the cloth is to be dyed into a certain color, it is dyed with semi-bleached cloth. Generally, bleached cloth is not used for dyeing. Canvas is a relatively thick cotton fabric or linen fabric. Most of the yarns of canvas are thicker than ordinary cotton yarns. In the eighth century, the Nordics used it to make sails."canvas". Of course, the earliest origins should be traced back to the ancient Roman Empire. At present, domestically, due to the relatively few raw materials of hemp, we generally think that cotton is used as the raw material, so it can be said that canvas is also a type of cotton cloth. Now there are many canvas shoes and canvas factories, I believe everyone knows it. Basically, most of the canvas in the canvas factory is mainly cotton, that is to say, it can also be said to be cotton, but we do not refer to canvas as cotton in our daily life. Canvas is a more specific type of cloth than cotton. But we do not speak of canvas as cotton in our daily life. Canvas is a more specific type of cloth than cotton.
