microfiber

Microfiber is a synthetic fiber that is finer than one denier or decitex/thread, with a diameter of less than 10 micrometers. It is typically made from materials such as polyester, polyamide (nylon), or a blend of both. Microfiber is widely used in cleaning products due to its unique properties, including:

1. High Absorbency: Microfiber can hold up to seven times its weight in water, making it ideal for cleaning spills and surfaces.
2. Electrostatic Properties: The fibers create a static charge when dry, which helps attract and trap dust, dirt, and other particles without the need for chemicals.
3. Softness: The fine fibers are gentle on surfaces, reducing the risk of scratches or damage, making microfiber suitable for delicate surfaces like glass, mirrors, and electronics.
4. Durability: Microfiber is long-lasting and can withstand repeated washing and use without losing its effectiveness.
5. Hygienic Cleaning: The dense structure of microfiber allows it to capture bacteria and small particles effectively, often removing up to 99% of bacteria with just water.

Microfiber is commonly used in cleaning cloths, mops, towels, and other cleaning tools, as well as in textiles like clothing and upholstery. Its versatility and efficiency make it a popular choice for both professional and household cleaning tasks.
