3.15 Children'S Wear List Is Potentially Harmful.

According to experts, at present, according to the national mandatory technical standards, the indicators of clothing detection mainly include pH value, formaldehyde content, azo dye, color fastness, fiber content, translocation and so on. Why does clothing contain dangerous ingredients?

It is understood that clothing pollution has two sources: first, in the process of planting raw materials, in order to control pests and diseases, use pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides, etc., if these toxic and harmful substances remain on clothing, they will cause skin allergies, respiratory diseases or other toxic reactions. The two is in the processing and manufacturing process, the use of oxidants, catalysts, flame retardants, whitening fluorescent agents and other chemical substances, these harmful substances are left on textiles, so that clothing once again contaminated. In the later stage of plastic finishing, the chemical substances containing formaldehyde will also be used to cause pollution to clothing. Clothing will inevitably use some chemicals in the processing and manufacturing process. If the chemicals are not treated well, the content of these chemicals on textiles exceeds a certain standard, if they contact the skin directly, they will do harm to people's health, and some of them will still have a long incubation period.

1. Decomposable aromatic amine dyes exceed the standard.

The dye can cause cancer. Decomposable aromatic amine dyes are toxic and harmful to human body. In long term contact with human body, if dye is absorbed by the skin, it will spread in the human body and cause human diseases. It is prohibited according to the "national textile commodity basic safety technical specification". Some dyestuffs printed on the products contain banned and decomposable aromatic amine dyes, and the detection of decomposable aromatic amine dyes in some commodities reaches up to 210mg/kg, exceeding the detection limit by more than 10 times.

Dyestuffs are colorless and tasteless. They can not be washed or washed.

According to the head of the national textile and clothing product quality supervision and inspection center, the textile fiber inspection institute of the city, the decomposed aromatic amine dyes will cause cancer of human cells for a long time and cause bladder cancer and ureteral cancer. According to past cases, workers who have been working in the textile factory for a long time are suffering from the same kind of cancer.

What is even more worrying is that the dye is colorless and tasteless, and can not be felt through the sensory organ of the human body. Once the dye is contained on the garment, it can not be alleviated by washing.

Two, formaldehyde exceeds standard

Excessive intake of formaldehyde and infantile intake

Formaldehyde is harmful to the human body. Formaldehyde can enter the body through diet, breathing or skin contact. Long term intake of formaldehyde at low concentration can cause symptoms such as loss of appetite, weight loss, weakness and insomnia. The toxic effects on infants are asthma, tracheitis, chromosomal abnormality, and decreased resistance. Especially when children are exposed to too much formaldehyde during their infancy, they can cause deformity.

Some textile products use formaldehyde containing additives in the production process, resulting in formaldehyde content exceeding the standard.

Three, pH value is not qualified.

Failure of pH value destroys skin resistance

According to the national standard, the pH value of textiles for infants and young children and for direct contact with skin is 4 to 7.5. The human skin is weakly acidic to prevent the invasion of germs. Therefore, the pH value (PH) of textiles is beneficial to the protection of human body between slight acid and neutral. If the pH value in textiles is too high or too low, it will damage the skin's balance and resistance, causing skin allergy or inducing infection, and making the skin vulnerable to other pathogens. More than 50% of children's clothing can not meet the requirements of pH in this test.

Four, labels have problems.

Commodity logo is a tool for producers, distributors to communicate with consumers (users) to identify goods, understand the performance of commodities and how to use them correctly and safely. It is an information bridge for producers and distributors to deliver commodity information and explain related problems. The standard specifies the content that must be expressly required. The producers and distributors of the commodities are vague about the requirements, and have little knowledge of the labeling requirements, resulting in intentional or unintentional omission or deviation. Most manufacturers do not have strong brand awareness.

The main manifestations are:

Fiber composition: unlabeled raw material content. The quality of commodity ingredients is one of the important factors determining the value of commodities. The content of mislabeled or confused ingredients will lead to misleading and deceiving consumers and directly harm consumers' interests.

Five. Choose safe children's clothes.

First look at the commodity logo, including tag and durable labels on clothing. The tag should be marked with trademark, Chinese factory name, factory site, commodity name, commodity execution standard number, commodity quality grade, safety technology category and so on. Durable labels should be marked with size specifications, fiber content, washing methods and so on. At the same time, we should pay attention to the names and addresses of producers and sellers.

Secondly, we must consider the quality of goods, and the general quality of clothing is divided into top quality, first grade and qualified products. Superior quality is better than quality or qualified product in quality.

Three is to pay attention to the raw materials of clothing, the first choice is pure cotton fabrics, such as ordinary cotton or natural colored cotton products, soft and breathable. Especially for underwear with skin contact, it should be made of pure cotton, not suitable for chemical fiber products, which is beneficial to children's health.
