Whether garment fabrics are UV resistant mainly depends on factors such as their material, weaving method, density, and whether specific UV protection treatments are added.
Firstly, from the perspective of fabric materials, some natural fibers such as linen have relatively good UV protection effects. Among chemical fibers, polyester (also known as polyester fiber) has the most excellent anti UV effect. Therefore, choosing fabrics made of these materials can to some extent resist the invasion of ultraviolet rays.
Secondly, the weaving structure density and thickness of the fabric can also affect its anti UV effect. Generally speaking, the tighter the weaving structure and the thicker the fabric, the better its UV protection effect. This is because the tight weaving structure and thick fabric can better block the penetration of ultraviolet rays.
In addition, some garment will be added with specific UV protection treatments during the production process, such as adding sunscreen agents or coatings, to enhance their UV protection function. These treatments can achieve higher UV protection standards for garment, effectively protecting the wearer's skin.
However, it should be noted that ordinary garment has limited protection against ultraviolet rays. When exposed to strong sunlight for a long time, we still need to choose sun protection garment or other sun protection measures with high UV protection to protect the skin.
Overall, whether garment fabrics are UV resistant depends on multiple factors. When choosing garment, we can pay attention to its material, weaving method, density, and whether it has undergone UV protection treatment, in order to better protect our skin from UV damage.
