For pillows and pillowcases, most people tend to pay more attention to the design. only a few friends will pay attention to materials, fabrics and the like. As your little home assistant, Xiao Nan must tell everyone about science today: in fact, The fabric (material) of the pillow and pillowcase determines its comfort, which in turn affects your sleep quality!
So which one is the best cotton pillowcase, colored cotton pillowcase, bamboo fiber pillowcase, etc. we usually use? Do new pillowcases need cleaning? How to clean separately? Look together
First, cotton pillowcase
Fabric advantages: good hygroscopicity, good heat retention, good heat resistance, good alkali resistance, natural non-irritating, antistatic fabric. Disadvantages: easy to wrinkle, easy to shrink. Pure cotton fabric is a kind of cotton which is produced by textile process. This classic fabric has many advantages such as good moisture absorption, good heat retention, good heat resistance, good alkali resistance, etc. It is almost the most widely used clothing fiber in the world.
Pillowcases are items that are close to the skin on the face. It is recommended that you choose a soft cotton material to sleep more comfortably. At the same time, you can choose a cotton fabric with active printing and dyeing process.
the cleaning method:
As with almost all newly purchased textiles, cotton pillowcases are still recommended for cleaning and reuse. It is recommended to wash with soapy water or neutral detergent and cold water. Do not soak for a long time. Do not use bleach. Wash dark and light colors separately.
If you are a perfectionist, you can iron with an iron after drying! Second, bamboo fiber pillowcase
Fabric advantages: silky soft and warm, antibacterial and full, moisture absorption and breathable, green environmental protection, anti-ultraviolet, natural health care, comfortable and beautiful fabric Disadvantages: not as good as cotton fabric
Bamboo fiber is a new type of fabric made from bamboo using special technology. Experts point out that it is a natural and environmentally friendly green fiber.
The delicate and silky texture takes care of your sleep time, it will not deform after washing, and it has good breathability and moisture absorption. It is called "breathable fiber"! It is also warm in winter and cool in summer!
In addition, it also has the advantages of antibacterial and bacteriostatic observation. Under the microscope, the bacteria on bamboo fiber products will be killed by more than 75% after 24 hours, so are babies using this pillowcase to have a disguised beauty?
the cleaning method:
For newly purchased bamboo fiber pillowcases, Xiaobian recommends that babies are better to use it after washing. Even the most expensive fabrics will inevitably leave some odor on the pillowcase during the dyeing and finishing process. And any newly bought textiles must be washed before use, so wash them first.
When cleaning, please note that the pillowcase made of bamboo fiber should not be rubbed and wrung out vigorously. It should not be bleached with chlorine or added with a softener. When machine washing, it is best to put it in a laundry bag and clean it for the first time.
In addition, do not expose and dry in the sun, just air dry.
Second, colored cotton pillowcase
Advantages of the fabric: No skin-friendly stimulation, green environmental protection, healthy and natural, antistatic, good moisture absorption and breathability, soft and hazy fabric Disadvantages: single color "color cotton" is a kind of cotton cultivated by modern biological engineering Fiber has a new textile raw material with natural colors. That is, cotton itself has white, brown, green and other colors, and can be directly woven into cloth without going through the dyeing process. At present, this kind of fabric is relatively scarce in the international market. The production cost is relatively high and the price is relatively high. It is also a healthy trend for textile fabrics in the future!
Because its color is derived from natural pigments, the printing and dyeing process is reduced during processing, and the characteristics of cotton natural fibers are retained. Of course, the texture is very skin-friendly and soft, which is more conducive to human health, and the color of colored cotton is often hazy. Yes, it looks very gentle, the first choice for girls' hearts!
the cleaning method:
First of all, the newly purchased colored cotton pillowcases still need to be cleaned, because the pillowcases will come into contact with machines or humans during the textile and packaging process! When cleaning, do not use acid detergents. We recommend using neutral soap or detergent!
Alright ~ That's all for today. There are advantages and disadvantages to cotton pillowcases, colored cotton pillowcases, and bamboo fiber pillowcases, so which fabric do you think is the best?
