Towels continue to fade and may contain carcinogens

    Wiping sweat, washing your face, bathing... The towel hanging at home has become one of the most frequently used daily necessities. In the past, the towel used by people was called “labor towel”, which is the kind of red, blue, green and white. Although the variety and color are single, it is quite easy to use. Nowadays, there are more and more varieties of towels on the market, and the colors are getting more and more complicated, and the problems that come with them are increasing.

●Continuous faded towels are not environmentally friendly

Two days ago, Aunt Wang went to the small commodity market to buy towels. There are many kinds of towels in the market, and the price is also cheaper than shopping malls and supermarkets. Aunt Wang picked up three towels for washing their faces, and the boss directly offered the price of “10 yuan and three articles”.

Although there is no label on the towel, the color is very bright, but this price can not be bought in the supermarket with a towel. Wang Ayi left to think about it and bought it.

Cheap is not good quality. Aunt Wang put a red towel into the water and the water turned red. Put soap on the towel and the bubble is red. Even with a towel, the face will be slightly reddish. After a few days of use, the towel not only continued to fade, but also appeared a bit of black mold. Aunt Wang was very annoyed and had to throw the towel.

Expert Comments: Many towels are dyed. Newly bought towels, the first time there is a slight fading in the water, it is normal. If you continue to fade, there are two possibilities. One is that the towel is a reworked product, and the other is that the towel uses a poor quality dye.

Inferior dyes are produced from waste raw materials and inferior chemical dyes. The cost is only one-tenth of that of regular dyes, and it also contains carcinogens such as aromatic amines. When the human body is in contact with a towel containing an aromatic amine for a long time, the aromatic amine is easily absorbed by the skin, causing cancer or allergies, and the aromatic amine can be lurking in the human body for 20 years. Therefore, washing the face with a towel dyed with inferior dyes will wash the face like industrial waste water, which will seriously damage the skin and endanger health.

● "Antibacterial" towels are mostly not antibacterial

In addition to a variety of colors, there are many functional towels on the market, such as "antibacterial" towels. The price of this "antibacterial" towel is several times more expensive than ordinary towels.

Ms. Zhang recently spent dozens of dollars in the supermarket and bought a so-called "antibacterial" towel, but when used, she felt like a normal towel. It takes a long time, the towel will turn yellow, and there is a strange smell on it. "What does the bacteria look like? No one can see it without a microscope. I think the so-called 'antibacterial' towel is just a gimmick for business promotion." Miss Zhang felt that she was fooled.

Expert comment: If the towel fiber itself has antibacterial function, then the towel really has antibacterial effect, but at present the fiber is very rare, so the so-called "antibacterial" towel on the market is mostly not antibacterial.

If you want a towel to be truly sterilized, you must use it exclusively for special purposes. The towel is autoclaved weekly, heated in a microwave for a few minutes, and it is best to change a new towel for three months.

●The towel is not softer and more absorbent

A few days ago, Aunt Liang bought a super soft towel and pinched it like cotton, but dipped the towel into the water, the water beads floated onto the towel, and the water and the towel were simply "not enough."

Later, Aunt Liang filled the water in the basin and forced the whole towel into the water. Then he kept licking it, and the water slowly penetrated into the towel.

Expert comment: The quality of the towel depends mainly on the yarn and fiber composition. Some towels are added with a softener, which is very soft and slippery, but has poor water absorption. The towels currently sold on the market are generally divided into three major types, and the water absorption is also different. The public can distinguish them by small labels on the sides of the towels.

The first type is a cut-down towel, which is very soft and comfortable to use. It has stronger moisture absorption and softness than ordinary towels.

The second jacquard towel is very beautiful, the pattern is exquisite and meticulous, the color is colorful and changeable, but the hygroscopicity and softness are slightly inferior.

The third type is a non-twisted towel, which is very soft to the touch and has a particularly good hygroscopicity. It also protects the skin. The crepe-free towel is a more fashionable beauty towel now.
