Expert Interpretation Of Infant Clothing Product Quality

Product Brief

1. formaldehyde.

Formaldehyde is a volatile compound. It is usually used as a synthetic reagent for crease and shrink proofing agents. It is also used in fixing agents, waterproofing agents, softeners, adhesives and so on.

Formaldehyde is also a stimulant compound, which can cause allergic reactions to skin and respiratory diseases.

A small amount of formaldehyde can stimulate people's eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Excessive formaldehyde can cause inflammation of mucous membranes and respiratory tract, and can also cause dermatitis.

The content of formaldehyde in infant clothing is less than 20mg/kg.

2. decomposable aromatic amine dyes.

Banned "decomposable aromatic amine dyes".

Clothes that contain decomposable aromatic amine dyes will decompose carcinogenic aromatic amine substances in the process of long-term contact with human body and react with human metabolites, and alter the DNA structure of human body through activation, causing human diseases and inducing malignant tumors.

3. heavy metal content can be extracted.

Heavy metals in clothing mainly come from some dyes, oxidants and catalysts used in printing and dyeing process.

Excessive absorption of heavy metals by human body will accumulate in the liver, bones, kidneys and brain of the human body. It will not only weaken the body's immune function, induce cancer, but also cause chronic poisoning and damage the central nervous system of human body.

Therefore, the contents of extractable heavy metals in infant clothing are: Mercury is less than 0.02mg/kg, chromium is less than 1.0mg/kg, lead is less than 0.2mg/kg, arsenic is less than 0.2mg/kg, copper is less than 25.0mg/kg.

4. color fastness.

Color fastness refers to the ability of dyes or pigments to retain their original color under the influence of various external factors.

There are many factors that affect color fastness, such as equipment, dyestuff, process (process, formulation, condition) and operation.

When the clothes with poor color fastness are exposed to external forces such as water, sweat, saliva or friction, the pigments will easily fall off and fade. This will not only affect the appearance and beauty of the garments, but also the dye molecules and heavy metal ions in the pigment may be absorbed by the skin, which will endanger the health of the baby.

Infant clothing generally requires color fastness to be above 3~4 grade.

5. the length of the cord is exposed.

The length of the rope must not exceed 14cm on the finished product; this is to avoid the rope being too long, and it is dangerous to entanglement with the baby carelessly.

6. the bearing capacity of buttons and other non removable attachments.

Non removable accessories such as buttons must withstand at least 70N pull.

This is to avoid attachments of poor firmness, being dragged and put into the mouth and dangerous.

Shopping Tips

1. read the logo.

Product identification is the most direct channel for producers to communicate with consumers. The information on product labels should be complete, including the manufacturer's name and address, product name, standard number, quality grade, inspection certificate, product size and specification, raw material composition and content, safety technology category, washing method, etc.

Among them, the safety technology category is the most basic requirement of the national mandatory standards to ensure the harmlessness of textile products to human health.

According to the requirements of various indicators, the product can be divided into three categories: "class a" for infants and young children; "category B" for direct contact with skin products; "C class" is not directly related to skin products.

Therefore, the purchase of baby clothes should pay special attention to whether the logo has "baby products" or "a".

Infant clothing logo should also be marked "not dry cleaned", because the residue after dry cleaning may affect the health of the baby.

The baby's skin is young, the label and durable label of the underwear products should be sewn on the outer surface of the garment.

The complete specification of labels is a manifestation of the responsibility of the manufacturing enterprises to consumers. The quality of such products is also relatively reliable.

2. look at the ingredients.

The baby's skin is tender, and its resistance is low. It is advisable to buy pure cotton or regenerated cellulose fibers, such as viscose fiber, modal, Tencel and so on. These fabrics are not only soft and comfortable, but also strong in water absorption and permeability, and are not easy to stimulate the baby's skin.

Colored cotton is also a good choice. Color cotton refers to the natural color of cotton during its growth process, and it does not need to be dyed through the subsequent process. Therefore, it will not cause damage to the skin, and it will be healthier and more environmentally friendly.

The color cotton that is widely planted today is usually brown.

If consumers see other colors of colored cotton on the market, please be vigilant.

At the same time, the use of colored cotton and white cotton blended more, so the deeper the brown color, the more the amount of colored cotton, the higher the price.

3. color should be shallow but not deep.

The color fastness of the fabric with light color is good, it is not easy to fade, and it is not easy to stain.

So try to choose light clothing, especially underwear should choose light color, so as not to hurt the baby's skin because of dyeing.

When choosing white cotton underwear, we should choose the natural white without fluorescent whitening agent, its color is soft or slightly yellow.

4. attachments should be few but not many.

Because baby's life characteristics are different from adults, they like to grab clothes, and like to put things in their mouths. If buttons or other accessories are pulled down and swallowed into their mouths, they will cause unthinkable consequences.

It is better to choose clothing with less accessories or accessories, try not to choose too much clothing and too long clothes to avoid being entangled with the baby.

The pull heads of zippers should be selected to be undetachable.

No rope is allowed for collar and cap.

The length of the rope must not exceed 14cm.

Printing parts are not allowed to contain powder and particulates; embroidered or manual sewn ornaments do not allow flashing chips and granular beads or touches sharp edges and tip materials, so as to avoid infantile eating and swallowing.

As far as possible, do not have too thick glue or coating to avoid affecting the air permeability of the garment.

If we do not know or are not satisfied with the quality of the product, we can ask the product to get the detailed quality information of the product through the report of the regular testing organization.
