Is the smell of diapers harmful to children?
Some mothers say they can smell when they open the diaper bag. Some say gasoline smell, some say disinfectant smell, some say pungent chemical smell, but what exactly are these smells? Are they harmful to babies? Mom, we will answer your question today. The diapers may smell when they are opened. This is the smell of hot melt glue and inorganic antibiotics. Because the production date is new and the taste has not completely disappeared, buy the recently produced diapers of other brands. Again, this is not a product quality problem, has no effect on the human body, is absolutely harmless to the baby, and can be used safely. Antibiotics are drugs that kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria. The structure of paper diapers is divided into three layers: surface covering layer, wicking layer and bottom layer. The surface layer is non-woven fabric, the core layer is absorbent balls and fluffy fibers, and the bottom material is mainly PE film or PE film + non-woven fabric. The raw materials of these diapers taste good. Surface coating layer: The surface of diapers is mainly non-woven fabric. Baidu Encyclopedia says: 'non-woven fabric'. It has the advantages of good strength, breathable and waterproof, environmental protection, flexibility, non-toxic and tasteless, and low price. The smell of diapers has nothing to do with non-woven fabrics. Absorbent core layer: The absorbent core layer is absorbent balls and fluff fibers, and the absorbent beads are super absorbent resin, mainly polyacrylic acid system, mainly sodium polyacrylate. Does the strong absorbent bead itself smell? Ladies and gentlemen, please see Du Niang's explanation: sodium polyacrylate. For white powder or granules, it is tasteless and tasteless, soluble in water, soluble in aqueous caustic soda, and has strong hygroscopicity. The outer layer (bottom layer) of the diaper The outer (lower) part of the diaper is a PE film. PE film, also called polyethylene film, is mainly used to prevent urine from penetrating, so the taste of the polyethylene film itself, um, Du Niang’s Almighty Come out again. Natural antibiotics are metabolites of microorganisms, some of which are polypeptides, and antibiotics are bacteria, fungi, etc. During the growth of microorganisms, chemicals produced for survival and competition can not only ensure their own survival, but also kill or inhibit other bacteria. Therefore, please rest assured, mom, who is more sensitive to the smell, if you think the smell is greater, put the diapers/pants in a more ventilated position, and the smell will dissipate in a short time.
