Rayon slub

Rayon slub

Rayon slub is a type of rayon fabric characterized by its unique texture, which includes slight lumps or irregularities known as “slubs.” These slubs are intentionally created during the spinning process to give the fabric a distinctive look with a bit of texture and depth. Rayon itself is a semi-synthetic fiber made from cellulose, which is chemically extracted from wood pulp. The result is a soft, smooth fabric that drapes beautifully and feels similar to natural silk or cotton.

Properties

  • Softness: Rayon slub is known for its soft, comfortable feel against the skin.
  • Breathability: Like other types of rayon, it is breathable, making it suitable for warm weather and for individuals who prefer natural fibers.
  • Drapability: It drapes well, making it a popular choice for flowing garments.
  • Distinctive Texture: The slubs give the fabric a unique, textured appearance that adds visual interest to garments and other items.
  • Moisture Absorbent: Rayon slub is more absorbent than cotton, making it comfortable to wear in hot and humid conditions.
