Toilet paper is one of the paper types that cannot be lacking in our daily life, and it is mainly to provide daily hygiene applications. It is because toilet paper is closely related to our daily life, so everyone pays special attention to the qualification of toilet paper.
Especially after the news exposed the unqualified toilet paper some time ago, it caused extensive discussion among residents.
Nowadays, there are many kinds of toilet paper purchased on the market, with different shapes and different colors. For example, the yellow toilet paper that has been selling hot in recent years is one of them, in the eyes of many people, it is a product that has not undergone any processing and bleaching process, and it seems to be healthier than snow-white toilet paper.
So the question is, what exactly is yellow toilet paper, and is it really healthy?
First of all, in recent years, with China's emphasis on forest protection, the raw materials for making toilet paper have become more and more numerous. Common categories are natural, non-polluting raw materials such as cotton pulp, wood pulp, bamboo pulp and grass pulp.
The requirements for toilet paper on the market in China are that paper towels have no toxic chemicals, no raw materials that are irritating to the skin, and no residues of various molds, viruses or bacteria.
That is to say, as long as the toilet paper purchased through formal channels is a qualified product.
The reason why the color of toilet paper is different is actually affected by the raw materials of toilet paper processing, and the snow white color of toilet paper is basically processed from raw materials such as wood fiber and cotton fiber.
The raw materials of yellow toilet paper are made of bamboo fiber, straw fiber and other ingredients, and there are differences in the color of paper towels, in addition to being related to raw materials, there are also differences in process production.
Usually, the process of white toilet paper and yellow toilet paper is basically the same, the only difference is that the process of white toilet paper processing has undergone a bleaching process, while yellow toilet paper has not been deeply processed.
Therefore, many rumors believe that yellow toilet paper without any bleaching is far healthier than bleached toilet paper.
However, this rumor is not entirely true!
Although white toilet paper has undergone the process of bleaching, it will not affect the body, and it does not have the possibility of carcinogenicity.
Because the toilet paper bleaching process, the use of chlorine-containing compounds, in the subsequent processing process, it will be repeatedly cleaned, processed, and finally the residual compound content on the toilet paper is minimal, and will not cause harm to the body.
Moreover, compared with the complex processing of white paper towels, yellow paper towels are not all natural, the most suitable for human toilet paper. Because, in the pulp that has not been bleached, there are often a large number of impurities, and the texture of the resulting toilet paper is even rougher.
Moreover, some merchants will also add various chemicals to it to oversoften the yellow paper towels.
In addition, there are some bad merchants, in order to cater to the public's pursuit of pure nature and health in recent years, they will also dye the original white toilet paper again for secondary dyeing, so that it becomes the so-called yellow bamboo pulp paper towel sales.
Finally, I would like to remind everyone that no matter what the color of the tissue, in fact, it does not affect the use of toilet paper.
Instead of tangling with the color of toilet paper, we should pay more attention to the quality of toilet paper, we should buy products with qualified guarantees when selecting toilet paper, and pay attention to observe the touch, toughness, and pulp uniformity of paper towels, so as not to buy inferior products.
