1. Different raw materials
Real hair:
The main component is protein, also known as natural protein fiber, which is divided into two categories: hair and glandular secretions. . Hair types include sheep wool obtained from sheep, goat thread obtained from goats, camel hair and camel hair obtained from camels, alpaca hair obtained from alpacas, rabbit down and rabbit hair obtained from rabbits, and Cow hair, horse hair, yak hair and deer velvet obtained from cattle, horses, yaks and deer. Glandular secretions include mulberry silk, tussah silk, etc.
Artificial fur:
It belongs to the category of synthetic fibers. It is made of viscose, and its fineness, length and appearance are similar to wool-type short fibers, so it is called "artificial hair".
2. Different characteristics
Real hair: Compared with artificial hair, it has uneven length and fineness. It has good hygroscopicity and melting resistance. Strong and small elongation ability. Good antistatic properties and other characteristics.
Artificial wool: generally has similar properties to natural fibers, with good hygroscopicity, air permeability and dyeing properties. It feels soft and shiny.
3. Different uses
Real wool:
Mainly used for clothing and various textiles. The real wool and man-made fiber industries are mainly in the textile field. The development of various high-quality and low-cost textile products and clothing products that meet market demand is one of the main goals of the textile industry.
As a natural fiber, real wool is a polymer material. Studying its chemical modification and comprehensive utilization of polymer resources is also another research topic of natural fiber resources.
Artificial wool:
Many silk fabrics are woven from rayon fabrics using viscose filament or fiber-rich filament as raw materials, such as matte spinning, glossy spinning, and beautiful spinning. Silk, cashmere, rayon, etc. Artificial hair also has the characteristics of rich hand feeling and strong hairy feeling, similar to the appearance style of Veridin, and is suitable for making women's dresses, casual clothes, etc.
