Classification by Yarn Material:

single component fabric:

The materials used to make the fabrics consist of a single type of fiber, such as 100% cotton fabrics, 100% wool fabrics, 100% silk fabrics, 100% polyester fabrics, etc.

Blended Fabrics: The materials used to make the fabrics consist of two or more different types of fibers, which are spun together to make yarns, such as polyester-rayon, polyester-acrylic, and polyester-cotton blended fabrics.

Union Fabrics: The materials used to make the fabrics consist of ply yarns made by combining single yarns of two different fibers, such as low-elastic polyester filament and medium-long fibers blended together, or polyester staple fibers and low-elastic polyester filament blended together to form ply yarns.

Interwoven Fabrics:

The materials used to make the fabrics consist of yarns of different fibers used in two directional systems, such as ancient brocade woven with silk and rayon, or nylon-cotton fabric interwoven with nylon and rayon cotton.
