Advantages and disadvantages of pure cotton towel
Advantages:
1. health: pure cotton textiles are natural fibers, with cellulose as the main component and a small amount of waxy substances, nitrogen-containing substances and pectin. Pure cotton towel has been tested and practiced in many aspects, and the contact between fabric and skin has no stimulation or negative effect. Long-term wear is beneficial and harmless to human body, and has good sanitary performance.
2. Moisture retention: Because pure cotton towels are poor conductors of heat and electricity, the thermal conductivity is extremely low, and because pure cotton textiles have the advantages of porosity and high elasticity, a lot of air can accumulate between fibers, and air is a poor conductor of heat and electricity, so pure cotton textiles have good moisture retention, and people will feel warm when wearing pure cotton fabrics.
3. Heat resistance: the cotton towel has good heat resistance. When the temperature is lower than 1 10℃, only the moisture on the fabric will evaporate, and the fiber will not be damaged. Therefore, the pure cotton towel will not affect the wearing, washing, printing and dyeing of the fabric at room temperature, thus improving the washing resistance and durability of the pure cotton towel.
4. Alkali resistance: The pure cotton towel has strong alkali resistance, and the pure cotton towel will not damage the fiber in the alkali solution. This characteristic is beneficial to washing, disinfection and impurity removal of post-use pollution, and can also be used in various processes such as dyeing and printing to produce more new cotton varieties.
5. Hygroscopicity: Cotton towels have good hygroscopicity. Under normal circumstances, fiber can absorb water into the surrounding atmosphere, and its water content is 8- 10%, so it contacts human skin, making people feel soft but not stiff. If the humidity of cotton cloth increases and the surrounding temperature is higher, all the water contained in the fiber will evaporate and disperse, so that the fabric can keep water balance and make people feel comfortable.
Disadvantages:
1, easy to wrinkle, and it is more difficult to smooth after wrinkling.
2, easy to shrink, the shrinkage rate of cotton towels is 2% to 5%, except after special treatment or washing treatment.
3, easy to deform, cotton towels will easily deform, because the fabric is thin.
Second, how to maintain pure cotton towels
1. Don't use the new towel directly. Wash the new towel with water before use. This is because towels may be touched by many consumers when they are displayed in shopping malls, and it is unsanitary to use them directly.
2. Used towels should be washed, dried and dried before use to meet the requirements of hygiene and health. If it is used repeatedly without washing and drying, or even shared by many people, the chances of bacterial transmission will greatly increase and may lead to cross-infection. The health organization of our country has also issued a special document to advocate the number of towels used by consumers, three for men and four for women.
3. Towels should be kept ventilated and dry, to prevent spots or breed all kinds of bacteria, and to increase the service life of towels.
4. Do not use bleach for household towels to avoid damaging the skin.
5, towels should be replaced in time. Any product has a service life. Towel is made of fiber fabric, which belongs to organic matter and its service life is generally 3 months. Therefore, towels should be replaced in time according to the use time. If the towel is moldy or dry and hard, it should be replaced immediately.
6, everyone should have their own dedicated towel, and according to the need to configure different uses of towel products. Face towels, bath towels, absorbent headscarves and sports towels should be used separately.
7, towels should be cleaned in time after use, disinfection once a week, it is best to dry or dry in time.
It can be seen that cotton towels need to be maintained, such as towels should be replaced in time. Any product has a service life. Towel is made of fiber fabric, which belongs to organic matter and its service life is generally 3 months. Therefore, towels should be replaced in time according to the use time. If the towel is moldy or dry and hard, it should be replaced immediately.
