Maybe you should know about bamboo fiber Sanitary Pads
The market for sanitary pads is highly homogenized. If you want to develop new products, you might as well learn about bamboo fiber sanitary napkins. I believe this article will give you a clearer understanding of what bamboo fiber sanitary pads are.
1. What is bamboo fiber sanitary napkin (product layered structure)
What are bamboo fiber sanitary pads? Let’s first talk about the structure of bamboo fiber sanitary pads;
The first layer-double-sided leakproof layer
The second layer-the skin contact layer is bamboo fiber
The third layer-functional layer (functional non-woven fabric can be added)
The fourth layer-absorbent layer (usually composed of wood pulp + SAP or dust-free paper wrapped absorbent layer)
The fifth layer-breathable bottom film
The sixth layer-outer packaging protective film
2. What is the difference between bamboo fiber sanitary napkins and organic cotton?
The bamboo fibers mentioned in the article are all bamboo pulp fibers, and the structure of bamboo fibers is fibrous. In the following we will refer to the production process of bamboo fibers, and pure cotton is flocculent, so the cross-section of bamboo fibers is full of holes , Has excellent moisture absorption and air permeability; the longitudinal section of the fiber has multiple grooves, which is beneficial to the fiber to discharge moisture.
In the following chart, we compare bamboo fiber and pure cotton:
Bamboo pulp fiber, cotton’s moisture absorption and desorption and coolness.
It can be seen from the above table that the moisture absorption and desorption of bamboo pulp fiber textiles is 2.12 times that of cotton.
Bacteriostatic test of bamboo pulp fiber, cotton fiber and viscose fiber.
The antibacterial activity of cotton fiber is poor, the antibacterial activity of viscose fiber is not obvious, but bamboo pulp fiber has good antibacterial activity, and its antibacterial effect has a certain broad-spectrum effect.
Comparison of the deodorizing effect of bamboo pulp fiber and cotton.
Bamboo pulp fiber has natural deodorant properties. The fiber contains chlorophyll and sodium copper chlorophyll. These deodorant substances remove odors through adsorption and oxidative decomposition. In addition, bamboo pulp fibers wick away perspiration quickly and make microorganisms more effective. The living environment is poor, and the effect of deodorization can also be achieved.
3. The manufacturing process of bamboo fiber sanitary napkins
The preparation method of bamboo pulp fiber is similar to ordinary viscose fiber, which is a kind of regenerated cellulose fiber. Bamboo pulp fiber is a kind of bamboo chips made into pulp, and then the pulp is made into pulp and then wet-spinned to make fibers. The manufacturing process is basically similar to that of viscose.
4. Product classification of bamboo fiber sanitary napkins
According to different colors, bamboo fibers are divided into white, natural (yellow), and black
According to different preparation processes, bamboo fiber is divided into spunlace process and knitting process (similar to pure cotton modal)
These are the more common types of products currently in the market
5. Are bamboo fiber sanitary pads biodegradable?
The answer is yes. Although his production process is the same as ordinary viscose fiber, his main raw material is still plant fiber, which can be decomposed in the natural environment;
Regarding 2019, EU countries’ policy on bamboo fiber products prohibiting food contact with bamboo fiber products, the experimental conditions are 70 degrees Celsius, 2h, it is found that bamboo fiber tableware releases formaldehyde, melamine and other hazardous elements higher than traditional pure melamine tableware. And if this kind of product is used as a disposable sanitary napkin, it does not require high temperature treatment, so bamboo fiber sanitary napkins can still be used as the skin contact layer of sanitary napkin materials.
Of course, if you still have doubts, you can also consult the relevant policies of the local government.
