Dozens Of Yuan Sunscreen Clothes Difficult To Block 70% UV

Put on a value of tens of dollars, light and bright.

It can block more than 70% of ultraviolet rays on hot summer days. A reporter's survey found that although these low cost sunscreen clothing can shading, there is no professional sunscreen coating, which has limited UV protection function.

Experts pointed out that ordinary clothing also has a certain function of sunscreen, online shop sellers are only wearing the banner of "sunscreen clothes" to sell thin fabrics.

Merchants claim sunscreen against UV 70%

In some wholesale markets and online stores, "sunscreen clothing" has long been a hot commodity this year.

Businessmen claim that "sunscreen can prevent 70% ultraviolet rays", attracting many consumers.

Reporters yesterday in a well-known shopping website search "sunscreen clothes", found that the relevant results as many as 10000, the price of more than 50 yuan to 100 yuan.

This kind of hot sell sunscreen clothing is made of pparent material and bright color.

In a women's clothing shop, the reporter saw that merchants claimed 79 yuan of sunscreen clothing "UV protection coefficient UPF70%-75%", "

It's a special silk fabric imported from South Korea.

In another online store, the 59 yuan sunscreen fabric shows "superior professional sunscreen fabric nylon spinning".

According to the reporter's enquiry, it is found that the highest UPF value of the textiles in the national standard is 50+, and "UPF70%-75%" does not conform to the professional logo. The meaning of UPF50 is that "ultraviolet radiation of 1/50 can be passed through the fabric", which is not what the sellers call the "UPF70% finger can obstruct 70% ultraviolet rays".

Regular counters don't mention sunscreen factor.

Yesterday afternoon, the reporter came to a department store in the middle of Nanjing Road, and saw many brands of outdoor sports areas had "skin windbreaker" sales. This kind of super light and ultra-thin, both waterproof and windproof at the same time, had both anti ultraviolet function, and the price was often above five hundred yuan.

However, unlike the pparent sunscreen clothing sold by online stores, the outdoor brand's skin windbreaker is similar to that of ordinary assault clothing, not pparent material.

The reporter visited a US outdoor brand and a number of domestic brand counters that N and C took the lead. They found that the fabric of the skin windbreaker was mostly "nylon", which was completely different from the "silk thread" of South Korea.

In addition, compared with online store sellers, outdoor brands are more cautious about the identification of textile sunscreen. When a reporter asked a UPF price index with a price tag of 599 yuan in a domestic outdoor brand counter headed by T, the clerk admitted: "a few years ago, the UPF index was indeed marked, but the sun coating will decrease with the increase of washing times, so now it does not indicate the UPF index."

Experts point out that general cloth has sunscreen effect.

China's "textile UV protection performance evaluation" stipulates that only when the product's UPF is greater than 30 and the UVA pmittance is less than 5% can it be called "anti ultraviolet product".

As for the sunscreen function of silk and Nei spinning, a number of experts from Shanghai underwear Association, Textile Research Institute and textile industry association all said "never heard of it".

Textile research and development expert Xu Jianqin said: "sunscreen function is generally achieved through dense material and special material coating.

The so-called "nylon spinning" is not a fabric component, but a fabric organization that has not heard of its sunscreen function.

Xu Jianqin also pointed out that some special work clothes really need radiation protection and other functions, but mostly made of special materials and coatings, the price is equivalent to five to six times of ordinary materials, tens of dollars of "sunscreen clothes", gimmicks are greater than the actual.

Liu Yinfeng, the secretary general, pointed out that the clothing of the general cloth can be sunscreen to a certain extent and prevent ultraviolet light. The concept of "sunscreen clothes" is nothing more than a concept marketing.
