How To Choose Natural Fiber Fabric Clothing In Hot Summer?

Recently,

The Municipal Bureau of textile and Textile Bureau sampled 257 garment samples from 123 garment manufacturers.

,

,

There are 9 main categories.

The sampling results showed that there were 29 batches of substandard products, with an unqualified rate of 11.3% and a pass rate of 88.7%, an increase of 2.5 percentage points over the same period last year.

Hot summer days, shopping for a cool and comfortable clothing is the most important thing for consumers.

Because summer clothing is relatively light, most of them are close to the skin, and directly contact with the skin, so when choosing to purchase, besides paying attention to fabric and cooling, clothing component logo is also particularly concerned.

Now, nature

It is a popular ingredient. Because of its natural and harmless characteristics, it is less harmful to human skin and is also popular among many consumers.

But is it natural that all natural fibers can be reassured by consumers?

Milk silk is not real silk, soybean fiber is composite fiber.

At present, in addition to the pure cotton summer wear, many of the products that sound very natural are also popular.

For example, milk yarn, Tencel, soybean fiber and so on.

Most consumers do not know enough about these ingredients, but they are purely natural based on their names.

According to experts, "milk silk" and "Tencel" do not belong to real silk.

Milk silk is the milk protein that is obtained after degreasing and dewater of liquid milk, plus softening agent, which is not pure natural.

Tencel is a viscose fiber, which belongs to chemical fiber. Silk mainly refers to mulberry silk.

For example, soybean fiber is a chemical compound made from soybean oil and polyvinyl alcohol or polyacrylonitrile. The bamboo fiber is also composed of bamboo fiber and bamboo viscose fiber, and the latter is also a chemical substance.

It is not accurate to call "soybean fiber" on the market. The standard name should be "soybean protein composite fiber".

Therefore, when choosing clothes, consumers should not only see clearly the identification of clothing components, but also have some understanding of these ingredients, so they should not be misled by names.

Chemical fiber impersonating natural fibers, a small number of products have a problem of pH value.

It is understood that the 29 batch of clothing inspection in Chongqing is mainly composed of three aspects: ingredient content, pH value and color fastness.

Among them, the products with unqualified ingredients amounted to 22 batches.

The main problem is that chemical fibers are impersonating natural fibers, such as cotton and wool.

Some of the unqualified products are impersonating another chemical fiber with one chemical fiber, for example, polyester is impersonating spandex and acrylic fiber.

Related personnel said that the reason for this phenomenon was mainly caused by some manufacturers' lax checks and random labeling.

In this sampling inspection, 4 batches of products failed to meet the pH value, accounting for 13.8% of the failure rate. The problem was mainly concentrated in pure cotton products.

Experts said that in the production process of pure cotton products, the pH value exceeded the standard easily because of excessive solvent in the later finishing stage.

Unqualified clothing affects human health

One of the most important indicators for testing clothing is the pH value, which will directly affect the health of the human body.

The normal pH value of human skin is slightly acidic, which can protect the human body from infection by bacteria.

If the clothing pH value is too high, the alkalinity is too big, the irritation enhancement, is likely to cause the skin immunity disorder, produces the burning sensation, the breeding bacterium, may cause the dermatitis, the skin itch and so on symptoms.

Especially in summer, if you buy this kind of clothing with high pH value, contact with skin directly will cause some harm to the human body.

Summer clothing tips:

1. in summer, it is hot and easy to sweat. Clothes can be as soft, cool, breathable and sweat as possible. This can also protect the skin, so it is best to buy clothes made of cotton and silk fabrics.
