Modal fabric can be washed in a washing machine, but some precautions are required, such as using a mild detergent, washing in warm water, and not tumble drying.

Preparing for Washing Modal Fabric
Before washing modal fabric, you need to prepare the following tools and items:

1. Mild Detergent: Choose a mild detergent; avoid harsh detergents, as these can damage the fabric's fiber structure and affect its softness and comfort.

2. Warm Water: Modal fabric cannot withstand high temperatures, so warm water is recommended. The water temperature should not exceed 30°C.

3. Washing Net: Using a washing net can prevent modal fabric from being deformed or caught on other clothing.

Steps for Washing Modal Fabric in a Washing Machine

1. Place the modal fabric inside out in the washing machine, keeping it separate from other clothes of the same or similar colors.

2. Wash on a gentle cycle, such as the delicate cycle or the wool/silk cycle, or hand wash. Place mild detergent in the washing machine.

3. When washing modal fabrics, keep the water temperature below 30°C. Do not use hot or cold water. Pre-rinse in cold water, then rinse in water of a suitable temperature.

4. After washing, use a softener or air dry the fabric in a dryer to soften the fleece.

Notes
1. Do not use bleach. Modal fabrics are sensitive to chemicals, and using bleach can cause yellowing or discoloration.

2. Do not tumble dry. Modal fabrics are not suitable for high-temperature drying, as this may cause shrinkage or deformation.

3. When washing, carefully coordinate the colors of the fabrics to avoid staining.

4. If your hands are greasy or stained, use a neutral detergent and gently wash, avoiding rubbing.
