Sports towels and ordinary towels have certain water absorption. But bai, water absorption also has strong and weak points, and this difference is mainly due to the different materials and processes. Ordinary towels are generally made of polyester or cotton, while sports towels are usually made of ultra-fine fibers, bamboo fibers and other materials and more optimized production processes, which have a strengthening effect on water absorption. Therefore, sports towels are more absorbent than ordinary towels.

When people exercise, the towel is in contact with the body, so its breathability should also have a stronger effect, so as to ensure the comfort during exercise. Ordinary towels are generally used to wash the face, dry hair, etc., and the requirements for air permeability are not high enough. Therefore, the breathability of sports towels is better than that of ordinary towels. Sports towels need to be in close contact with the athlete's body when people exercise, and it is necessary to ensure that they do not easily slip off the body. Therefore, the length of sports towels is generally relatively long, while ordinary towels should be convenient for washing the face and not too long, so exercise Towels are longer in size than ordinary towels.

 

First of all, the water absorption of the sports towel depends on whether it is good or not. You can spray a small amount of water on the hanging towel. If the water is absorbed quickly, it means that the water absorption of the sports towel is very good. If there are water droplets, it means that the water absorption is poor. Check whether the towel will fade, rub a clean wet tissue on the selected sports towel for a few times, and then check whether there is any color residue on the wet tissue. The breathability of sports towels is very important, so breathable fiber products are better than pure cotton products. Towels need to be washed and changed frequently. The service life of towels is generally within three months to half a year.

 

Therefore, they must be replaced and cleaned frequently. Towels that are not changed for too long or are not thoroughly cleaned will easily become a breeding ground for bacteria and germs while the water absorption becomes poor. Chlamydia trachomatis, Staphylococcus aureus, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and mold are all easily spread by the cotton fiber of the towel.Due to the particularity of the use environment, sports towels are easier to absorb sweat and breed microorganisms than ordinary towels, so the usual cleaning work should be done more carefully. When cleaning sports towels, it is best to use a neutral detergent, or a weakly alkaline detergent soap, and a disinfectant with an appropriate concentration for cleaning. If possible, consider using hot steam for a simple sterilization treatment, and then try to dry the towel in the sun.
