Washdolly Science

 

Washdolly is a microfiber cloth made of two synthetic polymers:  75% polyester and 25% polyamide.  Polyester likes to bind to fat, that is why the cloth works well to wipe away grease and dirt without the need of chemicals.  The clever production technique increases the surface area of the long tiny fibers. Polyester and polyamide are arranged as alternating wedges (see microscopic photo) that are split up by high pressure jets which create many extremely fine fibers.  When water is applied to the cloth it is stored between the pores of the fiber rather than binding directly to them.  The result is a much faster drying fabric. Microfibers are able to attach themselves to the tiniest microscopic dirt particles because of a microscopic adhesive force between microfibers and dirt  known as van derr Waals forces.  The Dutchman van derr Waals was a chemist (1827-1923), he won the Nobel Prize for discovering this force which explains why geckos can be seen on walls and ceilings by using zillion of hairs on the bottom of their toes.

Result: We have this sticky force attracting dirt and grease by millions of microfibers in this highly porous material with a large surface area that fits in the palm of your hand and removes your makeup with ease and cleans your face.

 

Bow Wow Puppy Towel

This puppy towel is made of 40% Bamboo Charcoal fibers, 50% polyester & 10% polyamide.

BENEFITS for drying after a bath or wiping wet or dirt paws:


  • Amazing absorption and deodorizing abilities – Bamboo charcoal fabric is highly porous which enables it to absorb high amounts of moisture. Along with the elimination of odours it drys your fur babies quickly and efficiently.
  • Antimicrobial and Antibacterial Fabric– Bamboo Charcoal fiber effectively decomposes the micro-organisms attached to its surface and in the air around it.  Bamboo has natural antibacterial qualities. This charcoal knit fabric has resistance to the development of mold and mildew. In addition to being antibacterial bamboo charcoal is also antimicrobial. Antimicrobial fabrics kill microorganisms that could be present.
