What kind of function is the 'chlorine resistance' written in the hat's description?
While looking for an outdoor activities hat, I saw the unfamiliar term 'chlorine resistance' in the product description. Because it is not an expression commonly used for everyday hats, I wondered in what situations this function is needed.
It refers to the property of withstanding chlorine ingredients used in swimming pool disinfectants and the like, so that the fabric's color does not fade and the fibers are not damaged.
Chlorine resistance means the strength of fibers to withstand chemical components contained in tap water or water disinfected for swimming pools. Generally, chlorine-based disinfectants used in swimming pools cause oxidation, bleaching fabric dyes and damaging fiber structure. Fabrics equipped with chlorine resistance do not fade easily even when exposed to such environments and slow down the weakening of the structure.
GRAMICCI applied a recycled fabric equipped with chlorine resistance along with water repellency that sheds moisture to the NYLON GRAMICCI CAP[1]. Moving beyond repelling rain or sweat, it is an application designed considering summer activities that come into contact with disinfected water, such as outdoor pools or water play.
hmmm, it is a configuration that broadens the scope of outdoor activities so that one can engage in activities while wearing the hat near water and lightly rinse and dry it.
It has not yet been confirmed specifically how well the chlorine resistance is maintained under specific disinfectant concentrations or exposure times.
