RESEARCH OF SAFETY INDICATORS OF FOOTWEAR TEXTILE MATERIALS MADE FROM BAMBOO FIBERS
Abstract
The urgency of the problem of the raw materials safety for the manufacturing of footwear and clothing, in particular for children, in the context of the likely migration of harmful compounds into the children's body is substantiated. Practical arguments are outlined that prove the urgency of the process of developing requirements for the use of chemically unstable materials and/or substances in materials for children's footwear. It is proved that the problem of developing modern safe footwear for children is complex in nature and can be successfully solved only by the introduction of scientifically substantiated requirements both for the safety of its design and for the safety of raw materials. Separate safety indicators of textile materials made from bamboo fibers intended for the manufacturing of children's footwear have been investigated.
