What is the fabric of the sun protection clothing?

Sunscreen clothing is a kind of clothing that can be used for sun protection. Its principle is to add sunscreen additives to the fabric to prevent ultraviolet rays. Some sunscreen fabrics combine ceramic micropowder with fiber to increase the reflection and scattering of ultraviolet rays on the surface of clothes and prevent ultraviolet rays from damaging human skin through fabrics.

The fabric used for sun protection is also a common fabric, but when dyeing in a printing and dyeing factory, auxiliaries should be used to improve the light fastness of the fabric, that is, color fastness, fading resistance and good texture, which is suitable for all grassroots people. Professional outdoor sunscreen clothing with high-end fabrics is not only sunscreen, but also breathable and splash-proof. Suitable for outdoor travel, essential for play.

At present, there are two kinds of common sun protection clothes on the market:

1. Sunscreen clothing containing ultraviolet screening agent.

Inorganic ultraviolet reflectors mainly include titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, alumina, kaolin, talcum powder, carbon black and so on. It can resist ultraviolet rays by increasing the reflection, refraction and scattering of ultraviolet rays on the fabric surface. This kind of clothes is generally airtight, so it's hard to feel and stuffy. But the price is moderate, which can meet the sun protection needs of ordinary people.

Second, translucent sunscreen clothing.

This kind of fabric is made of micro-porous fibers treated by ultraviolet rays, which not only plays the role of sun protection, but also increases the moisture absorption and perspiration of the fabric, and is more suitable for wearing in hot environment. Generally, polyester, nylon, acrylic and other fabrics are used to make this kind of light sunscreen clothing. This kind of clothes has excellent ultraviolet resistance, but the price is higher.

Matters needing attention in purchasing sunscreen clothing:

It is a standard sign that meets the requirements of the standard. The larger the UPF value, the smaller the transmittance. For example, UPF50 means 1/50, and ultraviolet rays can penetrate the cloth and reach the skin. If different kinds, colors and densities of UPF are the same, then their sun protection ability is the same.

Some sun-protective clothing labels are marked with T(UVA)AV, and the smaller the value, the smaller the transmitted radiation flux and the less harm to human body. The logo is not standardized, so it is best not to buy it.
