Can interlining be fixed to the fabric using fusible glue or hot melt glue?

Yes, interlining can be fixed to the fabric using fusible glue or hot melt glue. This method is commonly used, especially when there is a need for a quick and even adhesion of the interlining.

Fusible glue is a type of heat-activated adhesive that can be activated and bonded to the fabric through ironing. To use it, first apply the fusible glue to the back of the interlining, then place the interlining on the fabric. Next, heat the interlining with an iron to melt the glue and bond it to the fabric. During the ironing process, it is important to control the temperature and time to ensure the glue melts evenly and does not overheat the fabric or cause glue spillage.

Hot melt glue is another adhesive that can be used for interlining, and it is used in a similar manner. Hot melt glue typically comes in stick form and is melted using a glue gun. The melted glue can be applied to the contact surface between the interlining and the fabric. After applying the glue, press the interlining onto the fabric and allow the glue to cool and solidify. Hot melt glue dries quickly and provides a strong bond, but it is also important to control the temperature and amount of glue used to avoid affecting the appearance of the fabric or causing weak adhesion.

The advantages of this method include quick adhesion, ease of use, and the elimination of the need for sewing, making it suitable for garments where sewing is not desired or possible. It is especially suitable for thinner or more delicate fabrics, helping to keep the garment smooth and flat. However, the durability of fusible glue and hot melt glue may not be as high as sewing, so it is important to consider the usage environment and cleaning methods for the garment when choosing this method.
