Satin is an incredibly beautiful, strong and pleasant to the touch fabric, made of natural fiber. Looks like satin bed linen is noble and chic. In appearance, satin is almost no different from silk or satin, and costs an order of magnitude cheaper.
During the manufacture of satin fabric traditionally used high-quality cotton thread of 2 types: the thicker forms the basis of the fabric, and the thinner and twisted - its front side. It is because of the crowding of the thread that the fabric turns shiny. The opposite side is matte.
Pros and cons of satin bed linen
The main plus of satin - it almost does not crumple. After a dream it's enough to straighten the sheet and shake the blanket to make the bed look neat and fresh again.
As we have already said, the front side of satin has a noble silk shine. Serves good satin long enough, withstanding multiple washings and without losing the appeal.
Due to the fact that the reverse side of satin is matte and rough, sheets, duvet covers and pillowcases will not slip and stray. Unlike silk, satin holds well and transfers heat, which makes it comfortable to sleep in the cool season.
From the minuses of satin - it is smooth, because of what it is inconvenient to lie on it. A useful property in the winter to keep the heat in the summer turns into a serious inconvenience due to the fact that sleeping can be hot.
However, these disadvantages are rather arbitrary, since they are not relevant for everyone, but rather are a matter of individual tastes and preferences. In general, satin fabric is ideal for bedding.
The rules of care for a satin bedding set
Before the first use of bed linen from satin, it is necessary to wash it, before removing the duvet covers and pillowcases inside out. If they have buttons and zippers, they need to be buttoned.
Do not wash satin sets with products made of polyester, as natural fabrics do not tolerate such a neighborhood. Due to the rubbing of coarse polyester fibers about satin, the latter loses its main positive qualities, such as smoothness and silky. In other words, the satin becomes rough and on it appear crockets.
As for the temperature at which to wash satin bed linens, manufacturers advise choosing a mode from 40 to 60 ° C. Moreover, the first wash should be performed at 40 ° C, and the subsequent washing at 60 ° C. Do not be afraid - satin does not sit down when washing in such relatively hot water.
At washing it is absolutely impossible to add whitening agents to the washing machine, as well as the means in which there are active bleaching substances, since they cause huge damage to the structure of the fabric, because of what in due course it becomes very thin and easily tears.
Satin-colored satin bedding can be washed with other colored satin products, as this fabric does not shed. In the production of the material, after its coloring, it undergoes an additional treatment - washing with a paint fixer, so that the bed linen does not lose its color and bright colors, and also does not stain other things.
