Food, clothing, housing and transportation are very important aspects in our lives, although the old saying often says that illness comes from the mouth, but CCTV has exposed a batch of clothes before, and the content of carcinogens is 27 times the national standard!
This kind of clothes is not only sold on the Internet, but its target group is women and children with weak immunity, so it can be said that there is no conscience at all in order to make money!
So, what are the carcinogens that may appear in clothing, and what are the specific harms?
【▶> Poison Dye <◀】
Now that we have entered the time of 2024, it can be said that we are getting closer and closer to the New Year, and we are about to buy new clothes, but when buying new clothes, do you know that there may be excessive carcinogens on the clothes?
According to CCTV reports, the State Administration for Market Regulation has carried out surprise sampling inspections in various places, and the failure rate is even close to 20%, especially the fashion women's clothing of one company, which exceeds the standard most seriously.
Among them, the benzidine found out, the chemical abstract number is 92-87-5, according to the production standard, the required content is ≤20 (mg/kg), but in this company's products, the content of 540 was found!
The answer of 27 times more than the standard shocked anyone who saw it, especially since most of the clothing sold by this company on the online marketplace was aimed at children.
Benzidine is one of the carcinogenic aromatic amines recognized at home and abroad, and the types of carcinogenic aromatic amines are abundant, as many as 24 kinds, this substance was originally used in the production of clothing, paper and leather products, is a synthetic dye.
This dye can be used for coloring, but this dye is also very harmful to the human body, if people are exposed to this substance for a long time, it may change the DNA structure of the human body.
In the most severe cases, it can cause lesions that can lead to malignant tumors, such as bladder, ureteral and renal pelvic cancers, which can enter the body through the skin after human exposure.
However, the mainland has already stipulated in the mandatory national standard "National Basic Safety Technical Specifications for Textile Products" GB 18401-2010 that aromatic amine dyes are strictly prohibited from being used in textile products!
In particular, this kind of nationwide surprise inspection is basically the company itself sent the products for testing, and the products sent by the company for testing still exceed the standard, which shows that the company does not even realize that the dye it uses is problematic.
But in fact, in clothing dyes, not only aromatic amine dyes are hidden carcinogens, but also formaldehyde.
【▶> carcinogenic clothing <◀】
Everyone heard that formaldehyde should be more in the paint, or when some new houses have just been renovated, everyone will say that the newly renovated house should not be lived, but the formaldehyde in the house should be scattered.
In the past, there were also many unscrupulous people who rented out their newly renovated houses and let others act as so-called "body purifiers".
Some people may feel that there is a little smell on it after buying new clothes, and at this time everyone should be vigilant, which may not be the smell of plastic bag packaging, but formaldehyde that is harmful to the human body!
After the production of the garment, there are several other steps for wrinkle prevention, color firmness and printing and dyeing, and it is these three steps mentioned that will require the use of formaldehyde-based preparations.
Therefore, when some clothes are manufactured, it is very likely that there will be formaldehyde residues on them, and the harm of formaldehyde to the human body can be said to be gradually rooted in the hearts of the people with the improvement of people's awareness of health.
If there is a lot of formaldehyde residue on clothing, people with sensitive skin may cause symptoms such as skin allergies, redness, swelling, ulcers, and rashes.
In addition, formaldehyde is an irritating gas, and long-term inhalation can also irritate the respiratory tract, resulting in symptoms such as sore throat and cough, and in severe cases, it can even cause bronchospasm and bronchial asthma.
Therefore, when you get new clothes, you must pay attention to the fact that there are no irritating smells, and it is best to wash them before putting them on your body.
After all, clothes are in contact with the human body all year round, if there are really carcinogenic materials added by black-hearted businessmen, in order to buy cheap clothes, but in the end they harm the health of themselves and their families, it is really worth the loss!
[▶> greedy for cheap and cause great disaster<◀]
Whether it is formaldehyde or aromatic amine dyes, they have a great feature, that is, they are cheap, so some black-hearted merchants will add carcinogenic materials that have been banned to dyes in order to pursue profits.
For example, some clothes sold on shopping platforms, such as the kind with ridiculously low prices, everyone generally don't buy that kind of product cheaply.
Originally, "no treacherous business", how could someone use such a low price to sell clothes that are not low-cost, "cheap is not good, good goods are not cheap", for the sake of health, everyone still try not to buy.
However, the case of carcinogens exceeding the standard is not only on cheap clothes, and even many big-name brands may have carcinogens exceeding the standard.
For example, in September 17, a batch of clothing was intercepted in the injury, among which the well-known underwear brand "Victoria's Secret" appeared to exceed the formaldehyde standard.
In addition to Victoria's Secret, in 2019, the Market Supervision Bureau inspected the goods sold on the market, as well as big-name manufacturers such as Gucci, Tomley Boch, and Ralph Lauren, whose quality failure rate was as high as 22%.
In fact, there are many possibilities for unqualified, such as not meeting the publicity standards, but the products of a certain brand were directly found to be aromatic amine dyes.
When buying clothes, you must pay attention to whether there is a clear mark on the tag, in addition to the brand, product name and model, as well as the material, composition and safety level.
And when purchasing, it is also best to remember two numbers for the safety level, the safety level of adult clothing should comply with GB 18401, and the clothing standard for infants and young children should meet GB 31701.
There are also those products with too bright colors and hard printed patterns are best not to buy, because this kind of clothing either uses carcinogenic dyes, or it is easy to fade and dye, and it can be said that no matter which one is worth the loss.
When you buy clothes, especially intimate clothing, you must keep your eyes open, don't try to buy some products cheaply, even if you save some money, the final damage may be to yourself and your family's health.
When you are shopping, no matter what product you buy, it is best to have a formal logo, so that if something really goes wrong, you can also be held accountable for the specific corporate brand.
