Did you buy the right soybean quilt

When the cold air blows, the wind of the soybean quilt also blows. As a winter quilt, whether it is online or offline, the sales of soybeans have been outstanding.

Due to its popularity, many fake and shoddy products have appeared on the market, and there have also been many posts on the Internet about how to distinguish the authenticity from the fake. Ella, I looked at it, and some of them were right, but some were just plain nonsense.

In order to avoid you fall into the pit, today we are going to talk about the soybean quilt, and teach you how to avoid the pit to buy a reliable soybean quilt.

What is soy fiber?

Soybean fiber is essentially an improved chemical fiber.

Soybean fiber by the name, it is easy to mistake the filler is a natural material, it is not. Soybean fiber is a kind of composite fiber that is compounded and spun with traditional chemical fiber (polyester or polyvinyl alcohol, and a small part of nylon) after degreasing soybean meal is added with chemical reagents. Its essence is still chemical fiber, but its overall performance is different. A fiber that is better than traditional chemical fiber: the price is not much different from that of traditional chemical fiber quilt, but it is more hygroscopic, breathable, warmer, softer, and has a soft feel like cashmere and a soft luster like silk, which is more cost-effective.

Because it is a composite fiber, soybean fiber is generally marked as "soy protein-modified polyester fiber" or "protein-modified polyvinyl alcohol fiber" on the ingredient content table, in which polyester fiber is polyester, and polyethylene fiber is Vinyl.

What are the advantages of soybean quilt?

1. Moisture absorption and breathability, soft and warm

The moisture regain of soybean fiber is as high as 8%, which is close to that of cotton, so compared with traditional chemical fiber quilt, soybean quilt has better moisture absorption and air permeability. Although the moisture absorption performance is not as good as that of quilts, it can also avoid the problem of wet and cold quilts caused by excessive moisture absorption. It is warmer than quilts and more suitable for the wet and cold south.

2. Antibacterial and antibacterial, healthy and skin-friendly

Unlike cotton quilts, soybean quilts are generally filled with soybean fiber + polyester fiber according to a certain ratio, so the moisture content is low, and there is no growth environment for bacteria and mites, which can effectively inhibit the reproduction of bacteria and mites, and sensitive people can also rest assured. use.

3, the price is close to the people, cost-effective

Soybean quilt is warmer than cotton, and its thermal insulation effect is second only to down quilt and wool quilt. Its overall performance is better than traditional chemical fiber quilt, but the price is similar to it.

How to buy a reliable soybean quilt?

1. Looking at the composite material, polyvinyl alcohol is better than polyester

As we said earlier, protein-modified polyvinyl alcohol fiber and soybean protein-modified polyester fiber are both soybean fibers, but the two are different. The difference is that polyvinyl alcohol has better moisture absorption (polyvinyl alcohol has a certain moisture regain rate It is 5%, the official moisture regain of polyester fiber is 0.4%-0.5%), it is not stuffy or dry, and the quilt is drier. Even if it is used in the dry and cold north, the soybean quilt is not easy to generate static electricity.

2.Look at the ratio, 20%-30% content is better

Due to technological breakthroughs, quilts with more than 50% soybean content have appeared on the market, but Ella does not particularly recommend buying them.

Because soybean fiber has good moisture absorption and air permeability, but its own resilience and bulkiness are poor. The quilt with more content is not only more expensive, but also easy to harden and lose its thermal insulation effect.

In order to ensure the maximum improvement of the moisture absorption effect of chemical fiber, it is necessary to maintain its fluffy rebound. The more scientific content is 20%-30%, which means that 20% soybean fiber + 80% polyester fiber or 30% soybean fiber + 70% polyester fiber is a better ratio choice, and there is no need to pursue a high soybean fiber ratio. .

3. Look at the fabric, pure cotton fabric is the best

The fabric of the quilt surface is the most intuitive to distinguish the quality of the soybean quilt. Generally speaking, the quilt surface material is of high quality, and the filling of the quilt core will not be too bad. It can avoid the fake soybean quilt pretending to be dyed fibers to a certain extent.

At present, the quilt materials on the market mainly include nylon (nylon), polyester fiber (polyester), pure cotton, viscose, blended and so on. Among them, pure cotton is the best, followed by viscose fiber. The fabric is soft and skin-friendly, no abnormal sound, and good moisture absorption effect. Polyester material is not recommended, because polyester has poor moisture absorption and air permeability, which will affect the performance of soybean quilts.

In addition, it is recommended that you try to buy branded products when buying soybean quilts. Because the brand is more guaranteed in terms of quality control and after-sales, it can reduce the sunk cost when purchasing, and can also avoid buying fake and shoddy products!
