The Nanjing Municipal Market Supervision and Administration Bureau recently conducted quality supervision and random inspections on swimsuit products sold on e-commerce platforms. This time, a total of 30 batches of swimsuits were randomly inspected. After inspection, 27 batches were qualified and 3 batches were unqualified. The pass rate was 90%, the unqualified item is fiber content.
Fiber content is the main quality indicator of textile products. It is one of the important factors that determine the value of the product. For consumers, it is also an important factor in understanding the clothing fiber to purchase. Materials and Performance Basis. This inspection found that the fiber content inconsistency is mainly reflected in labeling nylon as polyester fiber, and labeling it as containing spandex, but the actual measurement result is no spandex, the labeling is inconsistent, the fiber content marked on the two swimsuit hangtags is inconsistent, or the hangtag and durability label The labeled fiber content is inconsistent and does not match the actual measured results.
The swimsuits currently on the market are made of nylon and spandex, followed by the combination of polyester and spandex. This is not only because nylon is softer and smoother than polyester in terms of wearing comfort, but also The wear resistance and moisture absorption properties are also better. In addition, the content of spandex is also an important indicator for judging the quality of swimsuits. The spandex content in swimsuits is preferably 15%-20%, so that such swimsuits can expand and contract freely with body movements. When consumers buy swimsuits, they should pay attention to check the sewing quality to see if the swimsuit is sewn with “three needles and five threads” stitches, or choose a swimsuit with wider seams. In addition, you can also check whether the sewing stitches are straight and round. For swimsuits with buckles, suspenders, and tethers, check the firmness of these details.
A good swimsuit can be “pulled out” and “retracted”
General swimsuits require It is tighter and more elastic than normal clothing. On the one hand, it has sufficient elasticity to ensure large-scale movements in the water. On the other hand, the elastic and close-fitting swimsuit can reduce the resistance of the water. If it is not close-fitting enough, it will not only hinder movement but also easily cause the swimsuit to slip. . Therefore, when purchasing, consumers can pull it with their hands or try it on to feel how well the swimsuit fits their skin and body. Swimwear that is too loose, too tight, or has a strong sense of pressure are not suitable. It is worth mentioning that the bigger the elasticity of a swimsuit, the better, but the better it can rebound and recover, and it can still return to its original shape after being stretched many times. Just “pull it out” is not enough. A good swimsuit must not only “pull it out”, but also “retract it”.
Chlorinated water in seawater and swimming pools will affect the service life of swimsuits, so you can fully wet it with clean water before entering the water, which can reduce the risk of chlorinated water in seawater or swimming pools. The infiltration and corrosion of swimsuits by chlorinated water can increase the service life of swimsuits. After swimming, remember to wash your swimsuit with clean water in time. Do not use washing powder, bleach, etc. The water temperature should be below 30°C. After hand washing, gently wring it out and put the swimsuit in a cool and dry place to dry. Do not use high temperature tumble drying. and ironing, and do not expose the swimsuit directly to the hot sun to prevent the fabric from becoming hard and brittle, which will affect normal wear.
