Title: Polyester clothes must not be bought
In the fashion industry, the choice of material for clothing is an important topic. Among them, polyester fiber, a common synthetic fiber, has attracted widespread attention and discussion. Some people even claim that "polyester clothes must not be bought", so is this statement accurate?This article will make a comprehensive analysis of polyester fibers from a scientific point of view to help you look at this problem more rationally.
First of all, we need to understand what polyester fiber is. Polyester fiber, also known as polyester, is a synthetic fiber made from organic dibasic acids and diols through polycondensation reaction. It has good elasticity and abrasion resistance, and is brightly colored, soft to the touch, and easy to clean, so it is widely used in garment manufacturing.
However, it is precisely because of these properties of polyester fibers that some controversy has also been sparked. Some people believe that the production process of polyester fiber will produce a large number of harmful substances, which are harmful to human health. In addition, polyester fibers are less hygroscopic and breathable, making them uncomfortable to wear. There are also those who believe that the durability of polyester fiber is strong, which leads to a serious phenomenon of fast fashion, which is not good for the environment.
So, are all of these views correct?Let's break them down one by one.
First of all, on the issue of harmful substances in the production process of polyester fibers. Indeed, some chemicals such as antimony and arsenic are used in the production of polyester fibers. However, as long as production enterprises strictly abide by environmental protection regulations and carry out effective waste gas treatment, the emission of these harmful substances can be greatly reduced. In addition, the content of harmful substances in polyester fibers is also greatly reduced after many washes. Therefore, as long as you buy clothes produced by regular manufacturers, there will not be much of a problem.
Secondly, on the issue of the comfort of polyester fibers. Although the moisture absorption and air permeability of polyester fiber are poor, through the progress of science and technology, there are now many improved polyester fibers, such as polyester cotton, polyester elasticity, etc., and their moisture absorption and air permeability have been greatly improved. Therefore, as long as you choose the right style and material, polyester clothes can also be worn comfortably.
Finally, on the issue of the impact of polyester fibers on the environment. Indeed, polyester fiber is highly durable and prone to fast fashion. However, this does not mean that we should completely resist polyester. On the contrary, we should cherish our clothes more, consume them wisely, and reduce waste. In addition, waste polyester fibers can also be reused and transformed into other useful products, thereby reducing the environmental impact.
In general, polyester is not "can't buy". As long as we choose products produced by regular manufacturers and pay attention to the maintenance and washing of clothes, we can avoid most of the problems. At the same time, we should also treat the consumption and waste of clothing with a more rational and environmentally friendly attitude.
In the fashion industry, there is no absolute good or bad, only the right fit is not good. Polyester clothing has its own unique advantages and disadvantages, and the key lies in how we choose and use them. As long as we treat it rationally, we will definitely be able to find the clothes that suit us best.
