Clothing national standard The formal implementation clearly stipulates that formaldehyde content should be clearly expressed on labels, so as to facilitate consumers to choose and buy. Yesterday, reporters visited a number of Baishan City clothing market was surprised to find that the Baishan City clothing market, formaldehyde content marked rate unexpectedly turned out to be "0". In the center of Baishan City, the reporter visited two big shopping malls and saw them there. Brand clothing On the label, although the implementation standards, product categories and grades, fabrics and other general contents were marked, they did not specify the specific content of formaldehyde. "Do not all look at the formaldehyde content on the label?" in a well-known brand clothing store, the reporter said he wanted to have a look at the formaldehyde content in the suit, but the answer from the other party proved that she actually did not understand it. "Does it not exist? Is that not here? 72% polyester fiber, 28%... The material inside is 100%, and now the polyester fabric is the most popular material in the suit, and it is well dressed.

During the interview, a few salesmen were asked. formaldehyde When the content is classified, the safety category on the label is mistaken for the specific content of formaldehyde to the reporters. Most of the other clothing salesmen do not know the clothes such as suits and overcoats. Their labels should be labeled with formaldehyde, which is not known in 2010. When asked how to ensure the quality of clothes, the most frequently heard answer was: "these are big brands, quality is absolutely not to be said, and our shopping malls are also the best reputable white hills, so you can rest assured!"

In a random interview with reporters, most of the citizens said that when buying clothes, they usually choose according to the appearance and price, pay little attention to the pH value and formaldehyde content of clothing, and do not know what harm the body will bring if it exceeds the standard.

Reporters interviewed 10 people in the shopping mall. They all did not know that the labels of 10 kinds of clothing, such as suits, coats, trousers and neckties, should be marked with the specific content of formaldehyde. "When I buy clothes, I only think about colors, fabrics, styles and prices, and never take into account the formaldehyde content. I didn't know that clothes contained formaldehyde before." a more than 40 year old woman was surprised to say that the people around her had a lot of concerns about whether formaldehyde was contained in furniture, but never discussed formaldehyde in clothes.

　 State regulations

Clothing and other clothing must express formaldehyde content.

It is understood that most of the cotton crease resistant shirts or ironing shirts sold on the market now use formaldehyde dyeing auxiliaries and resin finishing agents. Because of the strong anti-corrosive ability of formaldehyde, the use of formaldehyde assistants can make the pure cotton fabrics have the functions of crease prevention, shrinkproof and flame retardance. At the same time, it can also maintain the durability of printing and dyeing of garments. Spin Dyeing, printing and finishing processes are used in the production process.

In order to standardize the correct and reasonable use of formaldehyde auxiliaries in garment production enterprises, and in order to facilitate the quality inspection departments to monitor at any time, since January 1, 2010, the national quality supervision, inspection and quarantine and the National Standardization Management Committee approved the release of 10 national standards for clothing, including suits, coats, trousers and neckties. The new standard specifies the pH value and formaldehyde content of clothing, namely, the pH value of clothing directly touching the skin must be between 4 and 7.5, and the pH value of clothing that does not directly contact the skin must be between 4 and 9. The national standard for Western-style clothes and trousers also stipulates that the formaldehyde content in each kilogram should not exceed 300 milligrams, so as to prevent excessive formaldehyde from damaging the body.

According to the reporter, the new national textile basic safety technical specification issued by the state earlier this year has made the allowable limit for formaldehyde content. Among them, the category of products labeled on the label of clothing, that is, infant products, the formaldehyde content must be less than 20 mg / kg; B products, that is, directly contact with human skin products, formaldehyde content must be less than 75 mg / kg; C products, that is, non direct contact with human skin products, formaldehyde content must be less than 300 mg / kg. Since January 1, 2010, the national standards for garments and overcoats have been asked to specify the specific content of formaldehyde in clothing labels.

　 Expert reminder

Long term exposure to formaldehyde can cause allergic reactions.

According to Zhang Lei, chief physician of Department of Dermatology, Baishan Central Hospital, if human skin is exposed to formaldehyde for a long time, it will cause respiratory allergies, itching, swelling and other skin allergic reactions. Serious people will suffer from contact dermatitis and even cause toxic reactions. Even so, do not panic, because formaldehyde is a volatile substance, which has better water solubility. Therefore, in order to ensure its safety and health, clothes and trousers that just bought are not immediately worn, and can be washed with salt water. This can play a role of disinfection, sterilization and anti fading. "Like some jackets, if it's not very convenient to wash, it's very troublesome. You might as well put them in the air for a few days, so that some formaldehyde can be evaporated."

In view of the expert's opinion, the reporter conducted a random survey on "Baishan Street" about "clothes bought back, will you wash it and wear it again?" Of the 30 people who took part in the survey, only 6 said they would wash the newly bought clothes, 17 said they would wash their clothes, and 7 said they would not wash them. Some of these people think that new clothes are not dirty, so they do not need to be washed. Others are afraid that new clothes will fade or shrink without washing.

　 Insiders "

Try to choose plain clothes with less pattern.

How to choose comfortable clothes? Ms. Cong, who is engaged in clothing wholesale all the year round, says that when buying clothes, we should first pay attention to whether labels label the safety categories. When opening the package, if you have pungent smell, do not buy it; if the clothing has a similar smell of oil, it means that the clothes are polluted.

High coloring colors and printed clothing, and some wrinkle resistant clothing, the formaldehyde content is generally high, when buying, we should pay attention to the choice. When buying, you can first touch the clothes. If you feel particularly hard, you may have a high formaldehyde content. In addition, the less dyestuffs and paints used for infants and pregnant women's textiles, the better. When buying, try to choose products with plain and small area printing patterns, and pay attention to immersion and washing after buying them.

In addition, when buying clothes, do not wear them immediately. You should first open the packages and hang them for one or two days, because formaldehyde is easy to evaporate in the condition of ventilation and ventilation. And formaldehyde dissolved in water, soak and wash once, the residual amount of formaldehyde in clothes can be reduced by more than half. Therefore, underwear, underwear, T-shirts and other direct contact with the skin should be soaked and washed in clear water before drying in a dry and ventilated place, so that the formaldehyde content in clothes can be greatly reduced.
