Clothes made of silk fabrics should not be washed in water, but if they are to be washed in water, the following questions should be paid attention to when washing?
First of all, the changed clothing should be washed in time. If it is left for a long time, the dirt will be difficult to remove, which will affect the color.
Silk is not soapable:
1. Because tap water contains calcium and magnesium rods, it will become calcium soap or magnesium soap when it touches soap.
2. In addition to the positive charge of the true ribbon and the negative charge of the soap, the two are easy to combine, and the precipitation will adhere to the surface of the silk, which will cause off-white mottling. Therefore, it is best to rinse the silk with water or wash with detergent.
Secondly, when real silk garments are washed, strong scrubbing will cause the silk fibers to scratch or "displace" under the action of magic, stretching, and twisting forces, which will cause the clothing to deform and lose its original flatness. Quite, shorten the service life.
In addition, silk clothing is worn for a long time without washing, and the salt in the sweat can cause yellow spots on the surface of light-colored silk clothing. Silk garments must be rinsed clean after washing.
When washing silk products, choose a good detergent. Since real silk is slightly acidic like human skin, it is not suitable for washing with alkaline detergent or soap. It is best to use a small amount of neutral detergent (such as detergent for washing fruits and vegetables). After washing the silk fabrics, it is best to soak for a few minutes in water with a few drops of acetic acid to make the color brighter.
Silk clothing should be thoroughly cleaned when storing it. It is best to dry clean it once. This will not only decontaminate but also protect the material and garment shape, and at the same time can play a role in insecticide and sterilization.
When storing silk clothing, white silk is best wrapped in blue paper to prevent yellowing. Brightly colored silk garments should be wrapped in dark paper to keep the colors from fading.
Silk garments are lighter and thinner, are afraid of squeezing, and are prone to wrinkles. They should be stored separately or placed in the upper layer of the suitcase.
Gold velvet and other velvet garments must be hung up and stored on a hanger to prevent the vertical velvet from being pressed and the velvet or deformed.
When silk clothing has mild mildew due to dampness, it can be wiped off gently with flannel or a new towel. When the mildew is serious, ammonia water can be sprayed on the surface of the silk fabric, and then ironed with an iron. The mildew can be eliminated. Mild mildew on the white silk and satin can be wiped off gently with alcohol.
