The difference and characteristics of laundry detergent, laundry powder and laundry soap
washing powder
Washing powder is a chemical substance extracted from petroleum. It is generally weakly alkaline. Coupled with the added friction agent, it has a very strong decontamination effect, especially for dirty clothes. It can have a good cleaning effect. But on the other hand, washing powder is relatively harmful to clothes, solid deposits will make the fabric hard, and it will be more harmful to the skin. The most suitable washing powder is clothes that are exposed to dust, such as coats, jeans, down jackets, sofa covers, as well as materials that are not easily damaged, such as cotton, linen, and chemical fibers. They are not suitable for washing close-fitting clothes and bed sheets, but suitable for washing. Heavy coats, curtains, chair covers, etc.
Laundry detergent
The composition of the laundry detergent is similar to that of the washing powder, but the laundry detergent is more hydrophilic, water-soluble, and easier to rinse. Compared with washing powder, washing liquid is milder, has weaker decontamination ability and less damage to clothes. The technical content of laundry detergent is higher, and the washed clothes will be softer and fluffy, so the price will be higher.
Washing delicate fabrics such as wool and silk with laundry detergent is conducive to the maintenance of clothing. Some of the higher-grade and close-fitting clothing should also be washed with laundry detergent, which will cause less damage to clothing and skin.
Laundry soap
The composition of laundry soap is different from washing powder and liquid detergent. It is mainly derived from renewable vegetable oils, which has low skin irritation and also has the effect of protecting fabrics. It can be used to clean dead corners such as necklines and cuffs. Laundry soap can be applied directly, which can make the surface active agent concentration in local stains of clothes much higher than that of washing powder and liquid detergent. With targeted rubbing, it has a better cleaning effect on dead corners or stubborn stains on clothing such as collars and cuffs.
