Research of Required Qualifications for Baby Clothes from Past to Present

Clothing fabrics go through a series of stages before production stage. Many processes such as bleaching, dyeing, etc. are made with various chemicals. These chemicals must finally be removed from the product by washing. However, it is not possible to completely eliminate some chemicals from the surface. Surfaces on textile that are harmful to health when in contact with skin are at risk in terms of cloth production. In particular, the surfaces used in baby and child outfits should be examined more rigorously. Within the context of "Textile Ecology", harmful chemicals used in clothing production, especially in the last 20 years, have been reduced as much as possible and acceptable limit values have been determined. Therefore, it is expected that the fabrics to be used in baby clothes are subjected to various tests and their compliance with the limit values is examined. Baby skin has a much thinner, less sturdy and delicate feature than adults. For this reason, it is important that the materials used in baby products should not have any risk factors for health. It is desired that the model and material properties must be composed of materials that do not irritate the skin, give a feeling of comfort, and do not trigger allergic disorders. Within the scope of this study, it is aimed to give general information about Oeko-Tex and ecological textile issue, to research the test standards should be infants clothing under 3 years from past to present and to see the rates that can damage the skin and health.
