Oxford cloth will also shrink after washing or soaking in water. The shrinkage rate of Oxford cloth refers to the percentage of Oxford cloth shrinkage. Generally speaking, Oxford fabrics with the largest shrinkage rate are synthetic fibers and their blended fabrics, followed by wool fabrics and linen fabrics. Cotton fabrics are in the middle and shrink the most, while the larger ones are viscose fiber, artificial cotton, and artificial wool fabrics.
Influences the production of Oxford cloth Factors of shrinkage:
① Different raw materials of Oxford cloth have different shrinkage rates. Generally speaking, fibers with high hygroscopicity will expand when soaked in water, increase in diameter, shorten in length, and have a large shrinkage rate. For example, the water absorption rate of some viscose fibers is as high as 13%, while the synthetic fiber Oxford cloth has poor hygroscopicity, so its shrinkage rate is small.
② Oxford cloth has different densities and different shrinkage rates. If the longitudinal and latitudinal densities are similar, the longitudinal and latitudinal shrinkage rates are also similar. Fabrics with a high warp density will have a large shrinkage in the warp direction; conversely, fabrics with a greater weft density than warp density will have a large shrinkage in the weft direction.
③ Oxford yarn Different branch thicknesses have different shrinkage rates. Cloth with a thicker yarn count will have a greater shrinkage rate, while Oxford cloth with a finer yarn count will have a smaller shrinkage rate.
④ The Oxford cloth production process is different, and the shrinkage rate is also different. Generally speaking, during the weaving, dyeing and finishing process of Oxford cloth, the fibers have to be stretched many times, and the processing time is long. The shrinkage of Oxford cloth with larger tension will be larger, and vice versa.
