Most toilet paper is recycled paper, and the raw materials are varied and complex from source. After being used, it is thrown into the trash can and then into the garbage station, then recycled, soaked and re-pulped, then deoiled, de-inked and bleached, and then talcum powder, fluorescent agent, brightener and softener are added, then dried, rolled, cut and packaged, and then transported and sold. 1. The color is too white: In order to cater to consumers' psychology and improve the whiteness of paper, some manufacturers use fluorescent brighteners in production. Fluorescent brighteners are complex organic compounds with carcinogenic effects. Secondly, they use a large amount of bleaching powder, which causes serious damage to the internal fibers of the paper. The tensile force of the paper is particularly small and weak, and the amount of use has increased significantly. 2 Add talcum powder: In order to reduce costs, some production units add talcum powder during the toilet paper production process. In order to increase the retention rate of talcum powder, starch is also added. This makes the toilet paper heavy, small in appearance, cheap but very difficult to use. 3. There is a strange smell: Some manufacturers use wheat straw and tertiary household waste paper as raw materials for the production of toilet paper. The bacteria content is seriously exceeded, so they have to use a large amount of chemicals for disinfection. However, no matter what measures are taken, the odor in the paper cannot be removed, and consumers will suffer from various diseases after using it. 4. Expanding: In order to increase the volume of paper, some manufacturers add a lot of swelling agents to the raw materials, like popcorn. The toilet paper they produce is particularly large in volume, giving consumers the false impression that "this kind of toilet paper is large in quantity and soft", but it is particularly ineffective in use, has very small tensile strength, and has almost no water absorbency. The above series of processes inevitably cause the toilet paper to contain or retain some substances that are harmful to the human body, such as lead, cadmium, mercury, asbestos, etc. So this toilet paper is unusable, no! Toilet paper is usable and people cannot live without it. The key is how to use it and where to use it. |
