Why Microfiber Cloth is so Effective?

Capillary Power

This is created because of the millions of uneven fibers created during the splitting process, which makes the products absorb extremely well (seven times its own weight in water ).

When used damp the extremely fine fibres create a capillary effect within the cloth sucking up and holding liquid/dirt from the surface into the inner fibres of the cloth. Although the products may be the same size the actual surface area of Microfibres is much larger.

 

As microfibres are so fine, the surface of the product is increased and the area for storing dirt and grease through capillary action is far greater than in traditional products.

With the effect of capillary action 'sucking' the dirt/moisture from the surface the dirt and grease is retained within the fibres and only minute particles are released back onto the surface – removing the need for a second drying pass ( evaporate it ) . Dries in 1/3 the time of ordinary cleaning towels.

 

The sharp edges of millions of these fibers cut through dried-in stains, attracting and absorbing dirt and micro-particles, enabling the fiber to clean and polish at the same time, eliminating the need for additional chemical cleansers.

Therefore, only water is needed as a detergent to clean any type of surface. All of these advantage make microfiber product last so long, it far outweigh the cost difference to Cotton cleaning cloth or cotton mop.

Fine Fibres

Microfibres penetrate into surfaces at a finer level than normal fibres removing higher levels of dirt and grease whilst and creating a larger overall surface area 40 times greater than that of a regular fiber due to weakening the uprightness of the fibres.

And it creates Static electricity, like a magnet, polyester and polyamide which has a natural positive electric charge that will attract the negatively charged dust, dirt, pollen, mite, more over clean at a microscopic level such as bacteria, so that chemical use is reduced or not required giving environmental savings through the reduction in chemicals released into the environment.
