 How to Identify Real Silk Apart from the look and the feel, real silk can be distinguished from polyester and other artificial fabrics by testing it with fire. One can pass a flame over silk material about five times and it will not burn. On the other hand polyester will melt after one second. When burning silk fibres they will remain separate and smell like human hair, whereas polyester threads will just melt together and become sticky and hard.Silk, called the "queen of the fabrics", is becoming more and more popular. Silk is a kind of natural compound protein threaded with 18 amino acids homogenous with skin. Silk protects and moistens the skin by touch and friction. According to the research of beauty-specialists, the moisture absorption of silk is 150% as much as cotton, and the moisture release of silk exceeds that of cotton by 20% thus confirming that people can perspire comfortably in wearing or touching silk products.
