中国是养蚕织丝的创始国,古代精湛的纺织技术,也是闻名天下的,但由于长期的封建社会制度,近代纺织生产技术比西方落后了。到十九世纪中叶,西洋机纺棉纱乘虚而入,1859年,英国的棉纱最早输入我国,接着日本和印度都相继输入棉纱, China is a founding country of silkworm weaving silk. The exquisite textile technology in ancient times is also well-known in the world. However, due to the long-term feudal social system, modern textile production technology lags behind the west.
