Fashion Designer: New Clothes Don'T Wash And Don'T Dare To Wear Them Directly!

Recently, a "people usually open their packaging after buying new clothes, and put them out on them directly, which is wrong."

Because most of the new clothes contain residual formaldehyde chemicals, which are carcinogenic.

The news is changing in the circle of friends.

Does new clothes really cause cancer if they are not washed directly?

Song Ping, chief physician of Department of Dermatology, Guanganmen Hospital of Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, told us very positively that "this is just a gimmick, not so terrible".

The survey said: two adults buy 6 adults wash underwear.

As a matter of fact, this news had been spread on the Internet a few years ago. In response to this news, the life times also conducted a survey in 2013 to see how many people have the habit of washing new clothes.

The data were very intuitive. A total of 11266 people took part in the survey, but only 22.8% of them bought it. Most of them only had special treatment for underwear, 61% of them said they had to wash their personal clothes, and 8.24% of them said they would not wash any clothes. They even said, "after the new dress is bought, it is the best feeling to wear for the first time. Why should I wash it again?"

It can be seen from the survey that everyone's attitude towards new clothes is not the same. In other words, if the new clothes are really harmful, can people wash them like this?

Practitioners say: formaldehyde residue in new clothes is a common phenomenon.

According to media reports, our country has banned the sale of formaldehyde containing clothing since 03 years ago. However, because of the process of dyeing, stereotyping and other chemical preparations containing formaldehyde, the phenomenon still exists.

A clothing designer said that the new clothes and fabrics that just bought back often have a peculiar smell of new clothes, which are mostly the stain left by the dyeing agents, setting agents and the chemicals used by the workers on the assembly line.

Most of this smell comes from formaldehyde.

Ruan Tiemin, chief engineer of Zhejiang Silk Technology Co., Ltd., in an interview with the media, said: "generally printing logo on dark clothes, first of all, remove the background color. In order to make the logo on the clothes clearer, the color on the printing is more fixed, it may be necessary to use resin finishing agents, fixing agents, softeners, adhesives and so on, and all of them will have formaldehyde."

Therefore, formaldehyde residue in new clothes is a common phenomenon.

Is formaldehyde residue on new clothes harmful?

The common reaction of formaldehyde is that the new furniture and new painted walls will have formaldehyde residue after finishing the decoration.

Most people know that formaldehyde residues are harmful to human body, but harmful to what extent, most people do not know.

Song Guangsheng, the director of the national indoor vehicle environment and environmental product quality supervision and inspection center, gave several real examples in the public for indoor pollution of formaldehyde.

1 there was a primary school in Beijing. In grade four, little girls studied in the newly decorated classroom, and finally got leukemia. The government paid some money for them, and parents and schools were still in litigation.

In September 22013, a collective nosebleed incident occurred in Wenzhou. In the end, it was found that the formaldehyde in the newly decorated classrooms exceeded the standard, exceeding 2 to 3 times, and at the same time there were pollutants coming from the chemical plant.

Leukemia and nosebleed are the consequences of excessive formaldehyde and long-term exposure to formaldehyde.

In fact, in addition to causing acute eye symptoms, cough, tears and other direct reactions, formaldehyde can also cause visual impairment and allergies.

So does formaldehyde on new clothes cause cancer?

All actions that break away from doses are harmful to behavior.

Dr. Song Ping told us that carcinogenicity is positively related to the concentration and duration of exposure to carcinogens.

Formaldehyde is a volatile gas, so a small amount of contact is difficult to accumulate in the human body.

In addition to the problem of formaldehyde sensitization to skin, Dr. song also introduced, in fact, this is related to everyone's physique. "Because of the different physique of everyone, some people's skin is thin and relatively sensitive, so clothes wearing formaldehyde residue are easy to allergy, while others are not sensitive to it."

The concentration and time of formaldehyde exposure caused by new clothes can not be compared with that of high concentration and long term occupational exposure.

Wearing new clothes that are not washed will cause cancer. There is no scientific basis, or the risk of cancer is low.

Is new clothes only formaldehyde?

If you think that new clothes are only formaldehyde, a health hazard, you are too naive.

A clothing designer told Phoenix health that all the clothing and cloth in her studio were placed in the studio at random before the design was completed. That is to say, tables, chairs, sofas and floors could be placed and placed for a long and short time.

During this period, dust, dust mites, microbes and even "little strong" may pass through and stay overnight.

"Anyway, I dare not wear it when I buy it."

The designer said.

Dr. Song Ping also said: "there are hundreds of different kinds of material on the surface of new clothes, besides formaldehyde and some microbes.

Some allergic skin patients suddenly get sick after changing clothes, and the examination shows that they are related to clothes that are not suitable for purchase.

How to effectively remove formaldehyde from new clothes?

Remove the new clothes and formaldehyde. There is a magic trick: 1. brine soak wash: add a small amount of white vinegar or 2-3 tablespoons of practical salt in the clear water before washing it. Wash it with 2. warm water. The temperature is controlled at 30-60 degrees Celsius, and soak in warm water for about half an hour. After that, change the water and repeat it again.

If the color of the water turns yellow during the soaking process, we need to soak it once more until the water is clear.

3. specialized washing liquid: now there are some washing liquid will have the function of removing formaldehyde. You can pay attention to the purchase of such cleaning products 4. airing ventilation, avoid two pollution, Dr. Song said formaldehyde is a volatile gas, even if not washed, clothes placed in the ventilation can gradually evaporate.

Therefore, only regular and routine cleaning can be done for new clothes.
