The difference between mulberry silk and tussah silk

There is not much difference between mulberry silk and tussah silk. The only difference is that mulberry silk is the main raw material of silk. It can also be used for human vascular health and replenish the body with rich stratum corneum and collagen. Mulberry silk is also honored as the best raw material for making silk quilts. Tussah silk has a softer and more elastic texture and feels better. There are differences between the two.

Uses: Mulberry silk is not only the main raw material for silk weaving, but can also be used to make artificial blood vessels. Silk, keratin and collagen in the human body are all proteins with very similar structures. Therefore, silk has excellent biocompatibility with the human body. Silk artificial blood vessels will not cause

It can also connect with living flesh and blood and grow into the same outer wall and inner membrane as real blood vessels. As early as 1957, my country began to develop mulberry silk artificial blood vessels and tried them in clinical practice. Various types of artificial blood vessels can now be produced.

Mulberry silk is the best raw material for making silk quilts. Silk quilts made of mulberry silk are not only soft and close-fitting, warm and breathable, but also green and healthy. Moreover, the hygroscopicity of silk is 1.5 times that of pure cotton and 1.8 times that of wool, so it can maintain the moisture balance of the skin and has a good therapeutic effect on the elderly with dry skin.

Mulberry silk can also be developed into many high-tech by-products. After degumming, dissolving and dialysis purification of mulberry silk, a pure silk solution can be made, which is then placed in a plastic mold, dried to form a film, and finally sterilized by Co60 radiation to form a "silk film". This membrane is specially used for covering burn wounds to help wound healing and is also called "artificial skin".

Difference: Mulberry silk is a natural animal protein fiber and the main raw material for silk weaving. It is smooth, soft and lustrous, feels warm in winter and cool in summer, has a unique "silky" sound when rubbed, has good extensibility, good heat resistance, is not resistant to salt water erosion, and should not be treated with chlorine-containing bleach or detergent.

Common types of silk fabrics are roughly divided into several categories according to the craftsmanship, including double crepe, double crepe, georgette, double georgette, double georgette, sambo satin, plain crepe satin, stretch plain crepe satin, and warp knitting. Each has its own characteristics, and their prices will vary greatly due to their different processing techniques. Normally, double crepe fabric is formed at high temperature, the fabric structure is stable, the wrinkle resistance is good, the printing and dyeing saturation is high, and the color is bright; the advantage of heavy crepe is that the fabric has good drape and is more wrinkle-resistant; the advantage of george is that it is elegant and light; mulberry satin is a regular silk fabric with clear satin texture and antique style; plain crepe satin has a bright and noble satin surface and a smooth hand feel, but the fabric shrinkage rate is relatively large, and the gloss decreases after being put into water; elastic plain crepe satin is a new fabric, which contains 5% to 10% spandex in addition to mulberry silk, and is a woven fabric characterized by good elasticity and relatively small shrinkage rate; warp knitted fabric has a soft hand feel, is a new and special knitted fabric, has a high technological content, and is a high-end product. Of course, the price will be much higher.
