    2.How to choose silk comforter?

    We choose silk, in fact, mainly to choose the quality of silk in the core, the higher the quality of silk, the more pure, of course, the better. Some of the poor quality silk is used in the low grade silk, there will be unscrupulous manufacturers to add chemical fiber to muddle through.

    • First of all, look at the level of silk. The silk produced by the factory is commonly known as raw silk. The grade of raw silk is divided into 6A, 5A, 4A, 3A, 2A, A, B, C, D, E, F and extra grades according to the national GBl797-86 silk grading regulations, based on the physical indicators and appearance quality of the overall performance of raw silk. Generally if you want to choose silk comforter, try to choose 3A and above grade. And for underwear, choose grade 5A and above.
    • Second, each silk comforters should have a look sample mouth, generally between 20-30 cm, high-quality mulberry silk should be creamy white slightly yellow, silk surface has a soft luster, not black, not astringent, thick and thin color consistent, lustrous and not harsh, delicate and smooth no hard block; poor quality silk generally contains chemical fiber, luster harsh like a mirror reflection, silk silk confusion, no flexibility and glossy feeling, chrysalis shell cocoon block more.
    • Third, look at the silk weight, that is, filling weight. generally speaking, the higher the net weight of silk, the higher the price. For example, 200 * 230 size total weight is about 5 pounds (THXSILK this is 2.4kg), some businesses may be marked as the total weight, if the total weight, the net silk weight is estimated to be left 3 pounds of the same, this time the price should also be distinguished;.
    • Fourth, look at the static electricity. Silk is a poor conductor of electricity, pull open the zipper on the side of the cover, forcefully and quickly rub the zipper mouth exposed tires for about a minute, and then let it suck the width of about 0.3cm to 1cm of confetti, if you can suck up confetti, the filler inside the tire is chemical fiber silk or mixed with a large number of chemical fibers (but the surface may also have chemical fiber with static electricity).
    • Fifth, look at the thinness. Personally, I suggest that you can choose the thickness of the winter comforterin countries without heating; and generally in the heated residence, in fact, the spring and autumn comforter is definitely enough to keep warm.

      3.Why does silk have an odor?

      • Silk has a silk glue that connects the silk into clusters, and it is the silk glue that creates the unique odor. However, the purer the silk, the less residual silk glue, but even the purest silk will have 10-15% residual silk glue, so there will be a certain odor. But in turn, silk gum is actually, as mentioned above, beneficial to the human body for sleep, antibacterial and other benefits, so in fact the retention of silk gum is actually good.
      • THXSILKsilk comforter silk glue smell is very light, especially after the addition of the outside shell does not smell bad at all.
