Also take care when using the towel.

Two: small tricks for towel selection
1. Pick a smell before picking it.
You should smell the smell of towels before picking a colorful towel, because some manufacturers of inferior towels use some banned dyes, which contain benzidine carcinogens, which can produce a pungent smell. There are also some inferior towels that have the taste of fish and gasoline. They are not caused by storage or transportation. They are caused by oil leakage from the manufacturer's mechanical processing equipment and are not in compliance with sanitary standards. Therefore, good quality colored towels should have no odor. of.
2, look at the logo on the product
The national regulations on towel products must indicate: manufacturer, place of origin, telephone, implementation standards, safety technology category, raw material ingredients, trademarks, washing methods, etc. The cottage towel will not be labeled, or the expression will be ambiguous.
3, look at the appearance
Whether it is printing or plain towels, as long as the materials are used, the craftsmanship at home, the color must be more vivid, at first glance there is a sense of freshness, and the pattern is printed clearly, the loops are even, the seams are neat; avoid buying the color as old as the old Towels, such towels are generally simple in process, poor in materials, or even cut corners to hinder health.
4, soft touch
The high-quality towel feels soft, feels fluffy and elastic in the hand, and is attached to the face, giving a soft and sticky face. The towel should be hard and dry to avoid hurting the skin.
5, water absorption is better
If the quality of the towel is dripping on the water droplets, it can be quickly absorbed. If it is used to wipe the face, it can quickly dry the water and remove the dust. The inferior towel is slippery on the face, not absorbing water, not decontaminating. I don’t do well.
Three: Identification method of combed cotton towels
Cotton and cotton refer to the content of cotton, but not necessarily 100% cotton. You can look at the ingredients in the label when you buy it. Generally, regular businesses will indicate it. In addition, if it is 100% cotton, the towel must be inelastic. From this small detail, we can help us identify the cotton content.
Combed cotton is actually a higher quality of cotton. In the spinning process, the process of delicate carding is added by combing the shorter fibers and removing the impurities in the cotton to make smooth yarns, making the cotton more tough, not easy to pilling, cotton The quality is more stable.
Generally, the price of combed cotton is relatively high, so we can't afford to pay for it. There is a small trick that can help us identify ordinary cotton and combed cotton:
Hand shadow method: put a single layer of cotton cloth on the hand, and use the light to illuminate the back. The combed cotton is very tight, and the hand shadow is not visible after the light transmission; otherwise, the ordinary cotton cloth is not high enough, the contour of the hand It is faintly visible.
Four: Identification method of bamboo fiber towel
Bamboo fiber towels are made from bamboo. Compared with cotton towels, it is softer, more permeable, and more absorbent. One of the more important advantages is antibacterial.
Why does it have so many advantages? Because the bamboo fiber towel has an elliptical shape, the structure of the cotton towel is solid in a round hole. Therefore, the bamboo fiber towel has the functions of strong hygroscopicity, anti-mite and deodorization, and the cotton towel has a solid body and does not have the functions of water permeability and deodorization.
There are also ways to identify bamboo fiber towels:
Combustion method:
Take one or two yarns from the bamboo fiber towel, ignite them with fire, and observe the burning phenomenon carefully. Bamboo fiber burns quickly, thoroughly, and has the smell of burning plants. The ash is grayish white and does not form a ball. The towel containing chemical fiber has a pungent odor when burned, the ash is black, and the ball is formed.
Self-cleaning ability is very strong:
Wet the bamboo fiber towel, then pour the soy sauce and cooking oil onto the towel, then take it in the water and wash it. Without any cleaning agent, you can see the magic phenomenon. Soy sauce, cooking oil, etc. are completely cleaned. Rinse off, this is because bamboo fiber has superior decontamination and oil repellency, self-cleaning and self-cleaning ability.
Anti-mildew test:
After weaving a bamboo fiber towel and an ordinary towel with water, they are placed in two plastic food bags and placed in an environment of about 30 degrees Celsius for several days. Then open the bag and have a look and smell. It can be clearly felt that the bamboo fiber towel has no odor. Ordinary towels are moldy, sticky, stinky, and even black. The reason why the bamboo fiber towel has such a strange function is completely deprived of the antibacterial properties of the bamboo fiber itself.
Five: disinfection method of towels
1, microwave oven disinfection
You can fold the cleaned towel, put it in the microwave, and run it for 5 minutes.
2, with disinfectant
The disinfectant can be diluted 200 times with a cleaning disinfectant or 0.1% chlorhexidine. Soak the towel in the disinfectant for about 15 minutes, then take out the towel and wash it with water to use it.
3, the old base method - steam disinfection
Put the towel in the pressure cooker and heat it for about 30 minutes, basically killing most of the microorganisms.
Six: the method of softening the towel
After the towel is used for a period of time, the calcium and magnesium soap produced by the combination of free calcium, magnesium ions and soap in the water will be attached to the towel, and the towel will become hard. The method to eliminate this situation is also very simple, add 30g of soda ash in about 3 kg of water, and cook for 10 minutes properly.
Seven: the magic of salt
Frequently boil a towel with salt to prevent bacterial growth and reduce the stickiness of the towel.
