1. PP cotton
It is a kind of artificial chemical cotton fiber, commonly known as "hollow cotton" or "doll cotton". It has the advantages of excellent extrusion resistance, easy to clean, air-drying, quick drying, and fluffy. Of course, what we value is that PP cotton has extremely high safety and does not contain chemical irritants such as formaldehyde and fluorescent agents. Therefore, factories often use it as a filler for plush toys, pillows and other items. Another important thing is that PP cotton is easy to clean. Just wash it with detergent and dry it. However, due to the poor air permeability of chemical fiber materials, PP cotton will easily deform or agglomerate after a long time of use. Therefore, it is recommended that parents try to choose plush toys with good elasticity and a certain brand awareness when choosing plush toys for their children. Even if the price is slightly higher, the health of the child is important.
2. Down cotton
Down cotton is what we call silk cotton in our daily life. This material is not real cotton, but is made of microfibers through several special processes. Its appearance is very similar to down, so we call it "down cotton". It has many advantages such as light texture, good warmth retention, and not easy to deform. Manufacturers often use it as filling material for plush toys, down jackets, etc.
Of course, down cotton has another very important advantage, that is, the production cost is relatively low, the cost performance is very high, and it is deeply loved by manufacturers and consumers. However, the disadvantage of down cotton is also obvious, that is, it is not washable. In life, we often see the phenomenon that down jackets shrink and lose elasticity after washing, which is the "flaw" of down cotton. The same is true for plush toys.
3. Washed cotton
Washed cotton is made of cotton cloth. After special treatment, the color and gloss of the fabric surface are softer, the feel is softer, and the slight wrinkles reflect a sense of old material. This kind of clothing has the advantages of not easy to deform and fade, and no ironing when worn and washed. The surface of the better washed cotton cloth also has a uniform layer of plush, which is unique in style.
