Attention Has Been Paid To The Safety Of Children'S Textiles. The Only Detection Agency In China Is Qingdao.

Qingdao fiber textile supervision and inspection research institute is one of the earliest fiber inspection organizations accredited by the National Accreditation Committee of China conformity assessment, and is recognized by third governments and many international authoritative organizations.

The safety of infants and children's textiles has attracted much attention.

AQSIQ and the National Standard Committee issued the mandatory national standard "infant and children textile products safety technical specification" (GB31701 - 2015), is the first in China specifically for infants and children.

The mandatory national standard for children's wear will be formally implemented in June 1st next year.

How to detect plasticizer and heavy metal content in infant textiles? Yesterday, the reporter went to the fiber textile laboratory of Qingdao fiber textile supervision and Inspection Institute, and visited the check procedures for infants and children's textiles in the laboratory.

Regulations: children under 7 years of age, head and neck prohibited rope.

According to the city inspection institute, the new national standard will be introduced.

It is divided into infant textile products suitable for infants aged 36 months and below, and children's textile products for children over 3 years of age and below 14 years of age.

In terms of chemical safety requirements, the new national standard added 6 kinds of plasticizers and lead, cadmium, 2 kinds of heavy metal limit requirements, the standard requirements are equivalent to the European Union standards, higher than the United States standard; in terms of mechanical safety, standards for children's clothing neck, shoulder, waist and other parts of the rope detailed provisions, requiring infants and children under 7 years of age clothing head and neck do not allow any rope.

In addition, the standard also increased the combustion performance requirements.

Visit: 20 minutes to detect ten heavy metals

Yesterday, the reporter came to Qingdao infant textile heavy metal testing station to visit, the latest equipped with "inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer" value of up to 1 million 500 thousand yuan, can be detected within 20 minutes of clothing cloth copper, cadmium, chromium, lead, arsenic, mercury and other ten kinds of heavy metal content.

"This is particularly important in the detection of infant textiles, and the quality of children's clothes is even higher."

Liu Binlu, deputy director of the inspection center, told reporters that there are more than ten items of children's clothing testing items, and it will take about five days to complete the test.

Journalists have learned that heavy metals in clothing are basically impossible to eliminate.

Consumers should try to avoid buying cheap clothes on the stalls or in the market.

When choosing clothes, try to avoid choosing clothes with bright coating.

Does it contain carcinogenic and allergenic substances? Do you buy UV protective clothing and radiation protection clothing? These testing items can be carried out in the city's textile inspection institute.

"This machine is mainly used to detect carcinogens in dyes.

"Staff members," said the staff, the volatile substances in clothing, formaldehyde, benzene and other carcinogens, through clothing and human body direct contact, the harm is very large.

The liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometer in the laboratory can detect carcinogenic dyes in clothing in 40 minutes.

Anti ultraviolet performance tester, electromagnetic radiation resistance tester, Italy import dry cleaning machine...

The staff introduced the operation principle and performance of these instruments to reporters. The UV protection tester and the electromagnetic radiation performance tester can determine whether the clothes are qualified by testing the ultraviolet and radiation pmittance in a minute or so.

Release: the only testing agency in China is located in Qingdao.

It is reported that the Qingdao fiber textile supervision and Inspection Institute is one of the first fiber inspection institutions accredited by the National Accreditation Committee of China's conformity assessment, and is the only national quality inspection center in the whole country to test the ecological indicators of textiles.

Li Zhaoyong, vice president of the Municipal Academy of inspection, said that the existing laboratory area is 5100 square meters, and the original value of equipment assets is more than 1600 yuan. It has 268 sets of testing instruments and equipment, and is equipped with more than 30 sets of imported precision instruments, such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and atomic absorption spectrophotometer, from the United States, Britain and Japan.

In June 15th of this year, the municipal Inspection Institute signed a cooperation agreement with the China Quality Certification Center (CQC) Qingdao sub center.

The China Quality Certification Center is a third party professional accreditation institution approved by the Chinese government and recognized by many governments and international authoritative organizations.

Infant clothing safety hazard list

1. formaldehyde.

At present, most of the auxiliaries for printing and dyeing with formaldehyde are pure cotton textiles. The use of auxiliaries containing formaldehyde can improve the stiffness of cotton fabrics, that is, non ironing and wrinkle resistance of pure cotton garments.

Formaldehyde easily stimulates infants' skin and respiratory tract.

2. toxic aromatic amine dyes.

Because of its easy coloring and low price, aromatic amines will still be used by some printing enterprises.

Solids and vapors containing aromatic amine dyes can enter the body quickly through the skin and enter the body to produce reductive reactions, producing carcinogens, aromatic amine compounds.

3. decorative rope belt.

One is when the playground is playing the slide, it is strangled by the rope on the hat or collar.

Children's jackets and jerseys at the lower part of the rope pulled by doors and bicycles, causing serious injuries or even death.

4. buttons, zippers and so on.

Because infants like to pull clothes and bite clothes, the sewing strength of accessories, buttons and all kinds of plastic decorations are not strong enough for sewing or other causes, which are easily choked by children and suffocating or other safety hazards.
