These characteristics different from adults make children vulnerable to injury and infection when exposed to external stimuli.

The vast majority of < a href= "http:// www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > dye > /a > itself does not cause cancer. However, since dye is a low toxic substance, if the dye and fabric are not firmly integrated, the dye on the fabric will fall off easily when encountering water, sweat or saliva, and pfer from textile to human skin. Due to the catalysis of human sweat and saliva, the dye will be reduced to harmful substances and then absorbed by the skin of the child.

In addition, dye molecules and heavy metal ions in pigments are likely to be harmful to the health of children through the absorption of their skin and affect the growth and development of children.
