Antibacterial and bacteriostatic functions, deodorization and adsorption functions: the special ultra-fine micropore structure inside bamboo fiber makes it have strong adsorption capacity and moisture absorption and desorption functions.
Disadvantages:
Firstly, because of the herbaceous characteristics of bamboo, extracting fiber is a very complicated process, which is much more difficult than extracting cotton fiber from cotton. In this process, it will cause some pollution, which requires manufacturers to have enough sense of social responsibility to effectively protect the environment.
Second, bamboo fiber products have a hard injury-fragile. Bamboo fiber fabric can't be twisted hard, otherwise it will be easily damaged. But in order to overcome this weakness, bamboo fiber and cotton fiber are generally blended to improve strength. The ratio of bamboo to cotton is usually 7: 3, so if the bamboo fiber square towel, socks and bath towel you buy are not brand-name products, and they are also marked with 100% bamboo fiber, you should pay attention.
：
Cellulose is the main component of bamboo fiber cells, and it is also the significance of using it as textile fiber. Due to different bamboo ages, its cellulose content is different, such as 75% for young bamboo, 66% for 1 year bamboo and 58% for 3-year-old bamboo. The hemicellulose content in bamboo fiber is generally 14% ~ 25%, and the average content of Phyllostachys pubescens is about 22.7%, and its content also decreases with the increase of bamboo age, such as 24.9% for two-year-old bamboo and 23.6% for four-year-old bamboo.
