bomullpolyester

Bomullpolyester is a fabric made from a blend of cotton and polyester fibers. It is commonly produced as a woven or knitted material, with typical ratios such as 50/50, 60/40, or 65/35 cotton to polyester. The blend aims to combine the softness of cotton with the durability and resilience of polyester.

The cotton component provides a soft, comfortable feel and breathability, while polyester adds strength, wrinkle resistance, and dimensional stability. The result is a fabric that is generally more durable and easier to care for than 100% cotton, with faster drying and reduced shrinkage. Breathability is usually between that of pure cotton and pure polyester, and the hand feel can vary from soft to slightly crisp depending on the weave and blend.

Common uses for bomullpolyester include everyday apparel such as casual shirts, T-shirts, and dresses, as well as bedding like sheets and pillowcases, and various uniforms or workwear. The fabric can be found in both plain and more complex weaves, including twill and satin, as well as in knit constructions.

Care for bomullpolyester fabrics is typically straightforward: they are machine washable and usually tolerate tumble drying, though care instructions depend on the specific blend and weave. The blend offers good resistance to wrinkles and shrinking and generally holds color well.

Environmental considerations include the polyester component, which is synthetic and derived from petrochemicals, and the cotton component, which involves agricultural inputs. Some versions use recycled polyester or organic cotton to address sustainability concerns.
