The quality of imported children's textile products must be paid attention to

The labeling is unqualified, the color fastness is unqualified, and the fiber content is not up to the declared level... In recent years, the children's consumer market has continued to expand, and the consumption concept has shifted to the high-end field of pursuit of quality and branding. The children's home textile industry has developed rapidly. , Among the imported children’s textile products that are quite popular among consumers, there are still some product quality problems. "3·15" is approaching, the Huangpu Customs Laboratory sorts out the inspection results of imported children's textile products for consumers, reminding consumers to check the cleanliness of the products, observe whether they have complete labels, and pay attention to keeping relevant vouchers as a safeguard for their rights Important reference.

　　Imported baby and child textile products include clothing, colorful socks, quilts, mattresses, handkerchiefs, towels and sleeping bags. In recent years, substandard products have been repeatedly found in customs quality and safety risk monitoring and random inspections. The main product quality problems include unqualified labeling, unqualified color fastness, and fiber content not reaching the declared level.

◆Unqualified labeling

　　Identifications and instructions for use are an important source for users to obtain product information, as well as an important basis for users' normal use and maintenance. Infant and child textile products sold in the country should be marked with relevant product logos in simplified Chinese as required, so that consumers can clearly understand the source information such as the product's implementation standard number, registered trademark and other relevant information, model and fiber content. Consumers can use this information to understand product quality simply from the side.

　　Take the random inspection data of Huangpu Customs District as an example, the proportion of unqualified status of various signs is as follows:

　　◆Unqualified color fastness

The so-called color fastness (abbreviated as color fastness), the popular term is anti-fading, which means that the dyed fabric is subjected to external factors (extrusion, friction, washing, rain, exposure, light, sea water immersion, saliva) during use or processing. The degree of fading under the action of immersion, water stains, sweat stains, etc.) is an important indicator of fabrics.

Unqualified color fastness not only affects the service life of the product and contaminates other clothing, but also the product with poor color fastness is exposed to rain or sweat during the wearing process. The pigments on the fabric fall off and fade, and the dye molecules and heavy metal ions are all It may be absorbed by the body through the skin and endanger human health.

　　 After passing a series of color fastness tests, the color chart is used for grade comparison, and finally the color fastness grade is determined.

　　Color comparison process◆Fiber content does not reach the declared level

　　 It was found in the spot check that the fiber quantitative analysis of some products did not meet the standard requirements.

The unqualified color socks in the above picture is an example of the color socks. The problem is that the nominal value of fiber content does not match the actual test results; the second is that the agent or importer or seller of the product is not indicated. The legally registered name and address in Mainland China.

　　◆Tips:

　　About fiber content

　　 The fiber content of textiles is an important component of textile labeling, and it is also an important basis for consumers to judge the value of products. The standard GB/T 29862-2013 "Labeling of Textile Fiber Content" stipulates the labeling requirements, labeling principles, representation methods, allowable deviations and label conformity determination requirements for textile fiber content. All textiles sold in the country have a lower fiber content. The labels must be consistent with the nominal value.

Fiber content testing: This testing item is divided into two parts: qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis. Qualitative analysis is generally performed by one or more of the testing methods such as tensile test, combustion method, microscopy, dissolution method, and infrared spectroscopy. Determine the specific type of fiber contained in the sample (such as cotton, linen, wool, polyester fiber, nylon, etc.), and then use manual yarn unraveling method, chemical dissolution method, and fiber projector method according to the structure type and fiber distribution of the sample One or more of the other methods to determine the specific content ratio of various fibers.

For example, color socks samples, after determining the fiber types as cotton, nylon, and spandex by the above qualitative analysis method, chemically dissolve the nylon and spandex contained in it one by one, and the rest is cotton fiber, and finally combine the calculation formula Just calculate its specific fiber content.

　　 The qualitative analysis and detection process of the microscope is cumbersome and the calculation is even more complicated. A set of samples requires nearly two hours of work. Therefore, the customs and scientific research institutions have jointly developed an intelligent AI fiber content quantitative and qualitative analyzer to improve detection efficiency through image recognition technology.

　　◆Consumption tips:

　　As a non-professional person, how should he choose when buying imported children’s textile products?

The first is to observe the appearance, check the cleanliness of the product, and observe whether it has a complete label, including product instructions, durability labels; whether the supplier name, product name, product number, specification, and raw materials are clearly marked. Content, washing method, product standard number, product quality grade, product quality inspection certificate and safety technology category must be marked.

　　 The second is sensory evaluation. You can smell the product at close range to see if there is any pungent odor, especially the product with folded packaging. If there is a pungent odor, you must be vigilant. The product may have quality problems such as excessive formaldehyde and excessive carcinogenic aromatic materials.

The third is to keep the vouchers. Within a period of time after the product is purchased, try to keep all the vouchers related to the product, including: purchase bills, clothing tags, etc., which can not only be used to guide product maintenance, but also can be used as rights protection in case of quality disputes.
