Struktur und Webverfahren von Satin-Krepp
The front side of the fabric displays a smooth silk sheen, while the back reveals a distinct crepe texture, earning it the name “double-faced satin.” This duality adds significant design value.
The weaving technique uses the Satin Weave method, where more weft threads float on the surface, creating smoothness. Weft threads are typically high-twist, while warp threads are low-twist. For instance, Satin Crepe 14654 uses two 20/22D white silk threads for warp and weft, ensuring durability and luster.
Gemeinsame Spezifikationen
Common thicknesses include 12, 16, 18, 22, and 30 momme. These variations offer different tactile and drape effects suitable for various custom garments and home products.
Standard widths are 114 cm and 140 cm, with ultra-wide 260 cm options for bedding. Designers must consider fabric width to minimize waste, especially given the cost of mulberry silk. Shrinkage is typically around 5% due to the high-twist weft.
Eigenschaften und Vorteile
The fabric’s drape and flow are unique advantages, allowing for natural, graceful movement. As a high-end product, it offers moderate cost relative to other luxury silks, making it competitive.
However, its smooth surface makes it prone to snagging. Care should be taken to avoid rough contact. Dry cleaning or gentle hand washing is recommended, followed by low-temperature ironing.
