1. Classification by different processing methods
(1) Woven fabrics: Fabrics woven on a loom by interlacing two systems of yarns arranged perpendicularly, i.e., weft and warp. Examples include denim, brocade satin, worsted, and linen yarns.
(2) Knitted fabrics: Fabrics formed by knitting yarns into loops, divided into weft knitting and warp knitting. a. Weft knitted fabrics are made by feeding the weft yarns horizontally into the knitting machine's working needles, bending the yarns sequentially into loops that interlock. b. Warp knitted fabrics use one or several sets of parallel yarns fed longitudinally into all working needles of the knitting machine simultaneously to form loops.
(3) Non-woven fabrics: Fabrics made by bonding or stitching loose fibers. Currently, bonding and needle punching are the main methods used. This processing method greatly simplifies the production process, reduces costs, improves labor productivity, and has broad development prospects.
2. Classification by yarn raw materials constituting the fabric
(1) Pure spun fabrics: Fabrics made from a single type of fiber, such as cotton fabrics, wool fabrics, silk fabrics, and polyester fabrics.
(2) Blended fabrics: Fabrics made from yarns spun from two or more different types of fibers, such as polyester-viscose, polyester-acrylic, and polyester-cotton blended fabrics.
(3) Mixed fabrics: Fabrics made from yarns composed by combining single yarns of two different fibers, such as low-elastic polyester filament blended with medium-long fibers, or polyester staple fiber blended with low-elastic polyester filament to form combined yarns.
(4) Interwoven fabrics: Fabrics where the two directional systems of yarns are made from different fiber yarns, such as antique satin woven from silk and rayon, or nylon and rayon blended fabrics like Nifufang.
3. Classification by whether the raw materials constituting the fabric are dyed
(1) Grey fabrics: Fabrics made from undyed raw materials after processing; in silk weaving, also called raw goods.
(2) Dyed fabrics: Fabrics made from dyed raw materials or fancy yarns after processing; in silk weaving, also called finished goods.
4. Classification of novel fabrics
(1) Bonded fabrics: Fabrics made by bonding two pieces of fabric back-to-back. The bonded fabrics can be woven, knitted, non-woven, vinyl plastic films, etc., and can be combined in various ways.
(2) Flocked fabrics: Fabrics covered with short and dense fiber piles, having a velvet-like style, used for clothing and decoration.
(3) Foam plastic laminated fabrics: Fabrics with foam plastic adhered to woven or knitted base fabrics, mostly used for cold-weather clothing.
(4) Coated fabrics: Fabrics coated on woven or knitted base fabrics with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), neoprene, etc., featuring excellent waterproof properties.
