Ramie fabric is cooler than bamboo fiber. Ramie fiber structure is loose and poriferous, which has extremely strong thermal conductivity and can quickly conduct body heat. At the same time, its moisture absorption and moisture release is much better than that of cotton fiber. After sweating, the sweat can be quickly drained and evaporated, so that it can avoid sticking to skin. It has direct and durable cold sense, which is “the natural cooling fabric” for hot weather.
Bamboo fiber is cool but not icy. It is exquisite and has the similar handle to silk. Its cold sense is for the natural bamboo quinone components and porous structure, which can quickly absorbs the heat to make cold and dry handle. But its heat conduction speed is slightly inferior to that of ramie.
Ramie has very high strength, which is 7 to 8 times that of cotton. It is wear-resistant, mildewproof, antibacterial and mothproof. Also it can absorb harmful substances, such as formaldehyde, etc. Its UV-resistant ability is 41.7 times that of cotton. But it has harder handle. And it is easy to crease. It is also more expensive.
The advantages of bamboo fiber are skin-friendly and soft handle, good drapability, excellent antibacterial effect and quick water absorbing speed. It is environmentally-friendly and biodegradable. And with good care, it can keep smooth all the time. But it is not durable. After get wetting, its strength decreases, and it is easy to pilling and shrink. It has higher requirement for maintenance.
For extremely cold sense and durable property, ramie is a good choice, which is suitable for clothes for outdoor and high temperature environment. For skin-friendly handle and mild cold sense, bamboo fiber is better, which is suitable for making clothes next the skin and products for baby. Ramie and bamboo fiber can be blended to achieve cold sense and soft handle.
