In winter, the thick clothes at the bottom of the box should be taken out, and the fleece pants have become the "limited darling" of winter.
But what many people don't know is that some of the fleece pants are warm to wear, but they are "wearing their lives"......
What is the truth about fleece pants? And how to choose to avoid this harmful fleece pants?
"Take your life and wear" velvet pants
The rumors about the toxicity of fleece pants mainly focus on the problem of formaldehyde.
Many people believe that a large amount of glue is used in the production process of fleece pants, and these glues contain formaldehyde, which will cause harm to human health if worn for a long time.
Is there any scientific truth to this? Let's first take a look at how the fleece pants are made, and the fleece pants will add a layer of fleece to the inside, so that they are warmer and thicker to wear.
There is nothing inherently wrong with this process, the key is the type of glue used. Now the commonly used glue is mainly divided into two types: hot melt adhesive and oil glue.
Polyurethane hot-melt adhesive has strong viscosity, the material is soft and elastic, and it is also heat and water resistant. However, hot melt adhesive is more expensive, and some manufacturers may use oil glue instead in order to save money.
Although oil glue generally does not contain formaldehyde, there may still be some volatile organic compounds in it, which is not good for the body after a long time. The phrase "no formaldehyde and no glue" is deeply ingrained in the hearts of many people, and it has also exacerbated everyone's worries about fleece pants.
There is no necessary connection between formaldehyde and glue, and some glues can be completely free of formaldehyde. The formaldehyde content of the fleece pants produced by regular manufacturers is up to standard, and it is generally not harmful to the body when worn.
Of course, the possible formaldehyde problem in fleece pants cannot be completely ignored. In order to save money, some small factories may use bad glue, so that the formaldehyde in the clothes may exceed the standard.
This kind of clothing is not limited to fleece pants, nor is it limited to thick clothes in winter, if you encounter a black-hearted manufacturer, then no matter what type and season of clothes may be mixed with substandard glue.
These clothes have a unified name "poisonous clothes", as long as the smell of the goods is pungent, it must not be good, and they can be returned directly to the merchant or refused to be accepted after being dismantled at the express station.
To buy velvet pants, it is best to go to a regular store, choose a big brand, and see if the label meets the national standards. If the fleece pants you bought have a big pungent smell as soon as you take them out, that's right.
This kind of fleece pants is a typical "life wearing" fleece pants, and you can directly choose to return it without buying this kind of fleece pants. Although you don't have to be overly nervous, you can't be careless, stay rational and choose carefully.
How to choose and use fleece pants safely?

Price is also an important consideration, and while it's good to be affordable, we still have to be cautious when it comes to safety.
The phrase "cheap is not good" is not unreasonable, and products with too low prices may not use good materials and workmanship, and it is not safe to use.

Finally, it is recommended to wash the newly bought fleece pants before wearing, not only for hygiene considerations, but more importantly, to remove possible residual harmful substances.
