China Consumers Association Clothing Sunscreen Test Results Sunscreen Effect Ideal

> a href= "http://sjfzxm.com//business/" > China Consumer Association < /a > in 2014 6 and July, the clothing sold on the market in Beijing was declared as a sunscreen garment, and a comparative test was conducted on the UV protection performance of consumers concerned. The results showed that 30 samples of clothing samples, 9 samples UPF value less than 20, sunscreen effect is not ideal. There is a false sample UPF value in individual samples and inconsistent with the identification of fiber components or contents. 
 China's GB/T18830-2009 standard stipulates that when UPF>40 and (UVA) AV<5% are identified as UPF40+, they can be called "anti ultraviolet products". The comparison test results showed that the UV protection properties of the 30 samples were quite different. The UPF value of 14 samples is greater than or equal to 50, and the sunscreen effect is relatively good. However, the UPF value of 9 samples is less than 20. Among them, the nominal "Beaume" brand of men's ultra-thin jacket UPF value is 5, the nominal "Mai Li Maioule" women's sunscreen jacket UPF value is 8, basically can not achieve the UV protection effect. 
 individual samples are marked with sun protection function. Of the 26 samples that claimed to have sunscreen function, 15 showed the UPF value from 20 to more than 50+. According to the comparison test results, there are two samples of clothing UPF nominal value and the measured value is quite different, they are: the nominal "northern sun" Lady windbreaker samples UPF value is 30+, the measured value is 10; nominal "kremo Karrimor (PICA Pikaia)" Lady skin wind clothing sample UPF labeling value is 30, the measured value is 14.

The actual fiber composition or content of 2 samples in 30 garment samples is not consistent with the label. Of the 1 samples, the measured spandex content is 9% lower than the marked content. The 1 label is 100% polyester fiber clothing sample, actually measured 100% nylon. Another 1 samples of fiber name is not standardized, the "nylon 100%" is labeled as "100% polyamide (nylon)". 
 in terms of air permeability, the test results showed that only 8 of the 26 samples claimed to be sunscreen were breathable. Of the 3 sunscreen samples with breathable function, only 1 of them were tested for better air permeability. From the results of this comparative test, we can see that sunscreen and sunscreen are less. China Consumers Association has said that there are many factors that affect the permeability of clothing materials, such as thin and dense fabrics, whether they are coated, types of coating and thickness. All the tested samples can achieve better UV protection and less permeability. 
 in addition, the comparison test also tested the formaldehyde content, pH value, odor and other basic safety indexes and the moisture permeability of the 30 samples, and the test results all met the relevant standard requirements. 
 > a href= "http://sjfzxm.com//business/" > Consumer Association < /a > suggests that consumers should pay attention to the anti ultraviolet performance of clothing while paying attention to the sun protection clothing in summer, and also pay attention to the permeability of clothing. In addition, we should try to choose the sun protection clothing with dense fabric, deep color, moderate thickness and large area protection.
