What is an antibacterial spunlace non-woven fabric cleaning cloth?


Antibacterial spunlace non-woven cleaning cloth is a kind of cleaning product with antibacterial function. It uses spunlace non-woven fabric as the base material and endows it with antibacterial properties through special processes, which is widely used in the cleaning field. The following is a detailed introduction:

I. Core Materials and Processes

  • Spunlace Non-woven Fabric
    • Using polyester fibers, viscose fibers, etc. as raw materials, the fibers are entangled and consolidated into fabric by high-pressure water jets piercing the fiber web.
    • Characteristics: Soft texture, comfortable hand feel, good moisture absorption and air permeability, high strength, and not easy to shed lint.
  • Antibacterial Treatment
    • By adding antibacterial agents (such as silver ions, quaternary ammonium salts, nano-zinc oxide, etc.) or adopting antibacterial finishing processes (such as padding, coating), the fabric is made capable of inhibiting bacterial reproduction.
    • Antibacterial principle: Destroy the bacterial cell membrane, inhibit bacterial enzyme activity, or interfere with bacterial DNA synthesis, thus achieving the antibacterial effect.

II. Main Characteristics

  • High and Durable Antibacterial Efficiency: It can effectively inhibit common bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The antibacterial rate usually reaches more than 99%, and the antibacterial performance can still be maintained after multiple uses.
  • Powerful Cleaning Ability: With a fluffy fiber structure and many small pores on the surface, it can absorb dust, oil stains, dirt, etc., with high cleaning efficiency.
  • Water and Wash Resistance: The material has good water resistance and can be used wet or dry. It is not easy to deform or be damaged after washing, and has a long service life.
  • Safety and Environmental Protection: Most antibacterial agents are harmless to the human body, non-irritating to the skin, and some materials of the cloth are degradable, meeting environmental protection requirements.

III. Application Scenarios

  • Household Cleaning: Used for wiping furniture, kitchen countertops, bathroom tiles, glass, etc., which can reduce bacterial growth and maintain household environmental hygiene.
  • Kitchen-specific Use: Clean tableware, cutting boards, stoves, etc., to avoid bacterial contamination caused by food residues and ensure food safety.
  • Medical and Nursing: Wipe equipment and hospital beds in hospitals, clinics, etc., or be used as nursing supplies to reduce the risk of cross-infection.
  • Industrial Field: Used for cleaning precision instruments and electronic devices to prevent dust and bacteria from affecting the performance of the equipment.
  • Personal Care: Made into wet wipes, used for wiping the skin, hands, etc., suitable for use during travel and outdoor activities.

IV. Differences from Ordinary Cleaning Cloths

Comparison Dimension
Antibacterial Spunlace Non-woven Cleaning Cloth
Ordinary Cleaning Cloths (such as cotton, chemical fiber)
Antibacterial Property
Has a clear antibacterial function to inhibit bacterial growth
No antibacterial function, prone to bacterial growth
Material Characteristics
Soft, non-linting, good moisture absorption, more uniform fiber structure
May lint, moisture absorption or abrasion resistance varies by material
Cleaning Efficiency
More pores, strong adsorption ability, more thorough cleaning
Cleaning ability depends on the material, some are prone to leave residues
Durability
Resistant to washing, not easy to deform, can be reused multiple times
May become hard or damaged after multiple washes
Application Scenarios
More suitable for scenarios with high hygiene requirements (such as kitchens, medical)
Suitable for general cleaning, scenarios with low antibacterial requirements

V. Purchase and Use Precautions

  • Purchase Key Points
    • Check the antibacterial test report to confirm the type of antibacterial agent and the antibacterial effect (such as antibacterial rate, tested bacteria species).
    • Pay attention to the material composition, and choose products that are soft and do not shed lint to avoid scratching the cleaned surface.
    • Select the size and thickness according to the usage scenario. For example, a thicker type can be chosen for kitchen use.
  • Use and Maintenance
    • Clean regularly, and mild detergents can be used. Avoid using bleach or high-temperature drying to prevent damage to the antibacterial layer.
    • Hang to dry after cleaning to avoid bacterial growth in a humid environment.
    • If the cloth is found to be damaged or the antibacterial effect decreases significantly, replace it in a timely manner.

VI. Development Trends

With the increasing emphasis on hygiene and health, antibacterial spunlace non-woven cleaning cloths are developing towards higher efficiency and greater environmental protection. For example, natural antibacterial agents (such as tea polyphenols, chitosan) are being adopted, or fully degradable materials are being developed to meet the needs of green consumption.

In order to meet market demands, HYFabricsupply has independently developed and successfully produced antibacterial non-woven fabric products for many years, which have been recognized by many partners.
