Families with children, should have used cotton soft towels. Cotton soft towels than traditional paper towels, where is the good?
Wet water is not easy to break, do not fall off the flakes. A very common use of baby wipes is to change and wash with, if the confetti falls off and sticks to the baby, not only is the baby uncomfortable, but adults also need more time to clean up.
Softer. Baby's skin is delicate, the general paper towels are plant fibers or even chemical fibers, not as soft and comfortable as cotton towels.
Throw it away. Cotton soft towels are better for drying out after washing your face than towels, which are less frequently replaced, and can even be used as makeup wipes.
However, in addition to these, there is often a very important factor is overlooked, that is, cotton towels, is not made of cotton? Many cotton towels, in fact, is not made of cotton!
Second, non-woven classification introduction
Get a box of cotton towels, many times, the material written on the non-woven. What is non-woven? Nonwoven is actually a general term for the production process, rather than raw materials, its raw materials in addition to cotton, bamboo, wood, polyester and so on.
Take a paragraph of the introduction is as follows:
Nonwoven fabrics include chemical fibers and plant fibers in water or air as a suspension medium under the conditions of wet or dry paper machine made of cloth without textile, so it is called nonwoven fabrics. Nonwoven is a new generation of environmentally friendly materials, with good strength, breathable waterproof, environmental protection, flexible, non-toxic, tasteless, and inexpensive, etc., and has a water-repellent, breathable, flexible, non-flammable, non-toxic, non-irritant, rich in color and other characteristics.
First put the material breakdown of the mind map version:
Nonwoven fabrics are divided into the following categories for their different production processes.
Hydroentanglement nonwoven fabrics. High-pressure water flow to reinforce the fiber network and become, with its high strength, not easy to lint, high moisture absorption, good drape, become a medical dressing materials and wound dressings, aviation wipes, electronic industry, high-level wipes, towels, cotton pads, wet wipes, masks wrapped in the main material.
Thermally bonded nonwoven fabrics. Fiber network to join the adhesive reinforcement material production, production of baby diapers and women's sanitary napkins covering materials, ointment base cloth.
Pulp airflow into the net nonwoven fabric. With airflow impact reinforcement fiber network, moisture absorption is very strong, mostly used for highly absorbent disposable sanitary products, such as diapers, sanitary napkins and so on.
Wet nonwoven. Water as a medium to make the fiber into a network, mostly used for tea bags, sound-absorbing materials, wallpaper and so on.
Spunbond nonwoven. Special nonwoven fabrics made of filament, sacrificing the feel and bringing good tensile properties. Agricultural materials, carpet backing, and filtration materials many use this.
Meltblown nonwoven. With fine silk extruded under high heat from the nonwoven fabric, the strength is relatively poor, the feel is very soft. Apparel industry mostly use this nonwoven.
Needle punching nonwoven fabric. The use of felting needle puncture made of nonwoven fabrics, performance is more balanced, elasticity, permeability, feel good, the application is also very wide.
It can be seen that the process of nonwoven fabrics has been very mature, the application range is also very wide, covering most industries. At present, in the field of baby wipes, the more used are water spunlace nonwoven and needle punched nonwoven. So what is the problem? The problem is actually due to the cost and process technology, the raw materials of nonwoven fabrics, many of which use polypropylene (pp material), only a few with cotton, wood pulp.
With non-natural production of non-woven fabrics, in the environmental point of view, PP material recycling, has not been able to achieve systematization, a certain impact on the environment; in the feel and the use of performance point of view, some of the wet wipes with non-woven fabrics of the process, is really still not good enough to achieve the mother and baby industry's requirements for non-woven fabrics - soft, Absorbent, no flakes. Therefore, the concern about non-woven fabrics is also somewhat justified.
In this regard, the cotton era is how to do it? From the medical industry to the mother and child industry of the cotton era, with cotton non-woven fabrics, the production process has applied for patented technology, the use of 100% cotton raw materials, flexible and durable, wet and dry, absorbent, non-dandruff, fully biodegradable. After all, the originator of the cotton soft towel is not blowing ~
Third, the horizontal evaluation
Below, take a look at the 10 models of cotton soft towel I have bought it. Due to time and financial constraints, there are still many great cotton towel brands that were not included in this review, such as October Crystal's Cotton Cotton Towels. I hope you can also recommend the cotton towels you have used, to give a reference to the later.
The dimensions of this evaluation are: whether cotton / thickness / absorbency. As for the rubbing of the flocculent, as long as it is made of cotton, there may be flocculent situation, just more and less of the problem, and the usual use, it should not be a piece of cotton towel rubbing dozens of times to the flocculent, so do not do the comparison.
In addition, in the actual control found that the cotton soft towels are currently the implementation of the standard, most of the standard is still GB15979, belonging to the one-time use of sanitary products health standards, not on the face of the face of the tissue standards, but toilet paper standards. I hope that the country as soon as possible to have a special standard for cotton soft towels ~
All group photo, a **** there are 7 cotton cotton soft towels (1-7), 3 non-cotton cotton soft towels (8-10).
1. Curious
Number of draws: 80
Purchase price: special purchase, $6/pack, about 7 cents a sheet
Whether cotton: Yes
Thickness: Thin
Absorbent: Weak
Curious belongs to one of the cotton-polo towels that I've been using for a long time, and I'm interested in the 100% US cotton material; Of course, the price was also a major factor that attracted me. Curious non-woven fabric is Kimberly-Clark's own patented COFORM tree spun non-woven fabric, the fiber is finer and softer, but also because of its wood pulp content of more than 70% (generally wood pulp accounted for 50% has been excellent), the finished product also seems fluffy, feel more comfortable.
But then, in daily use, the shortcomings of Curious are also exposed, that is, it is relatively small and thin, because of thin, the absorbency is also relatively weak, a use of 2 pieces. In addition, there is no Chinese standard certification on the packaging. I can only say that the feel and firmness can't be both.
2. Cotton Secret
Number of draws: 20 draws
Purchase price: 3 yuan / pack, about 0.15 yuan a sheet
Whether cotton: Yes
Thickness: Medium
Absorbency: Medium
Cotton Secret, since the name is given to this name, naturally, to the 100% cotton as a selling point. It is a brand of the British UNI-cotton technology company. The thickness of the cotton is OK, the absorbency is average, and there is a little unevenness. It can be described as a basic qualified, no-fault, no-fault cotton soft towel. It also has a soy fiber cotton soft towel, slightly cheaper, you can also try.
3. Henry Morgan
Number of draws: 100
Purchase price: 6.8 yuan / pack, about 7 cents a sheet
Whether cotton: Yes
Thickness: Thin
Absorbent: Weak
If the cotton secret is still a little uneven, then the uniformity of the Henry Morgan is simply that the surface of the moon! It's pitted, pitted, and not very tough, and is the kind of thing that rips apart in a single tear. If it also uses a non-woven process, then this process is also a very bad non-woven process. Although the price is very low, but the quality is also sacrificed too much.
4. Goodbaby
Number of draws: 20
Purchase price: $2/pack, about $0.1 a sheet
Whether cotton: Yes
Thickness: Thin
Absorbent: Weak
Goodbaby's cotton towels, although the area is OK, but the thinness and translucency are destined to be weakly absorbent. No note is made of non-woven fabric process, cotton thickness is very uneven, affecting the actual use of feelings.
5. babycare
Number of draws: 80
Purchase price: 12.8 yuan / package, about 0.16 yuan a
Whether cotton: Yes
Thickness: in
Absorbent: medium
babycare's cotton towels, there are obvious traces of the horizontal process, compared to the good boy. It's still a lot tougher than Goodbaby. Thickness and absorbency are both fair.
6. Vida
Number of draws: 100 draws
Purchase price: 9.9 yuan / package, about 0.1 yuan / sheet
Whether cotton: Yes
Thickness: thick
Absorbent: good
Vida belongs to the oversized, the sheet size of 200mm * 200mm, the thickness belongs to the type of thickness, natural absorbency is not bad! The water absorbency is not bad at all. The packaging indicates that the cotton non-woven process, toughness is also okay. And the price combined to see very good.
7. Songda
Number of draws: 50 draws
Purchase price: 5 yuan / package, about 0.1 yuan / sheet
Whether cotton: No, bamboo fiber production
Thickness: medium
Absorbent: medium
Songda this bamboo fiber production of cotton towels, unexpected feel, absorbent are still okay, but also There is no unevenness, nor the roughness of some brands of paper towels made of bamboo, can be said to be a non-cotton cotton soft towels a little surprise. You can see that this bamboo fiber cotton soft towel, also not like cotton made cotton soft towel so easy to wrinkle, appear more smooth.
8. Stokke
Number of draws: 20
Purchase price: 6 yuan / pack
Cotton: No
Thickness: Thickness
Absorbent: Strong
As a "cotton-cotton" nonwoven, in fact, the raw material is not cotton, and does not meet the GB15979 standards, and also does not meet the GB15979 standards, and does not meet the GB15979 standards. The embossing can be seen, belonging to the non-woven fabric in the embossing pattern, wet wipes with more people should be very familiar with. And the front of the cotton nonwoven, because of the fiber relationship, is very difficult to achieve this embossing. The feel is average, and the absorbency is okay.
9. Ammus
Number of draws: 20 draws
Purchase price: 6 yuan / pack
Is cotton: No
Thickness: Thick
Absorbent: Strong
First of all, the Ammus also has raw material cotton cotton wipes, searching for the U.S. version of cotton can be seen. The version I purchased is not made of cotton, it's large and thick, absorbent, and the embossing is similar to that of Stokke.
10. Keli
Keli's cotton towels, I bought two packages, but the raw materials are different. The large package is labeled as hydroentangled nonwoven, not made of cotton.
The small package is made of cotton.
Number of draws: 80/20 draws
Purchase price: large package for 5 yuan / package, 6 cents a sheet; small package for 3 yuan / package, 0.15 yuan a sheet
Whether the cotton: large package of non-cotton, the small package of cotton
Degree of thickness: the large package of medium, the small package of medium-thin
Absorbent water: medium
The same brand, different packaging The right side of the picture is a large package of cotton towels, non-cotton raw materials, a little thicker, the left side of the small package of slightly thinner. As you can see in the picture, cotton raw materials cotton towels, more prone to creases, and non-woven fabrics are not easy to get up, which is also determined by the characteristics of cotton. The water absorption is okay.
Fourth, the summary
1. Not recommended
Henry Morgan and the good boy's cotton towels, although cotton, but too sparse, affecting the use of the experience; non-cotton cotton towels, Stokke's did not mark the national standard, can be defaulted to do not comply with the national standard, and is not recommended.
2. Cost-effective models
Vinda's cotton towels, thickness and absorbency can be, but also more large, belong to the cost-effective choice, more recommended.
3. Other
Cotton cotton soft towel, cotton secret and babycare's cotton soft towel no obvious short board, but the price is relatively expensive; curious cotton soft towel discount when the price is cheap, but on the thin side, can accept can consider getting. Songda's cotton soft towel, although not made of cotton, but also natural bamboo fiber production, feel and comprehensive ability can be, is the genuine price is slightly expensive, such as discounts can be started.
4. Note
Special attention should be paid to the fact that some brands are sold in a mixture, such as Amos and Keli, its cotton cotton towels more expensive than non-cotton, when buying. To distinguish between cotton and non-cotton, you can look at its process, if the embossing is more complex, it is likely that it is not cotton.
