In modern life, automatic washing machines have become one of the indispensable appliances in the home. In addition to the basic washing function, the sterilization and mite removal functions of the Automatic Washing Machine have attracted much attention.
First of all, high-temperature washing is a common way to sterilize and remove mites. Many automatic washing machines have high-temperature washing programs, which can effectively kill bacteria and mites by raising the water temperature to a certain degree. Generally speaking, water temperatures above 60°C can kill most bacteria and mites. During high-temperature washing, hot water can penetrate into the fibers of clothing, destroying the living environment of bacteria and mites and making them inactive.
Secondly, silver ion sterilization technology is also widely used in automatic washing machines. Silver ions have a strong antibacterial effect. They can bind to the proteins of bacteria and mites and make them inactive. Some automatic washing machines are equipped with silver ion generators inside, which continuously release silver ions during the washing process to achieve the effect of sterilization and mite removal.
In addition, ultraviolet sterilization is also an effective method. Some high-end automatic washing machines are equipped with ultraviolet lamps to irradiate clothes during the washing process. Ultraviolet rays can destroy the DNA structure of bacteria and mites, thereby killing them. This method not only has a good sterilization effect, but also does not cause damage to clothes.
In addition to the above methods, automatic washing machines can also remove bacteria and mites by flushing and stirring with water. The strong water flow can wash away the bacteria and mites on the clothes. At the same time, the stirring device in the washing machine can also make the clothes fully contact with detergent and water, improving the effect of sterilization and mite removal.
In order to ensure the effectiveness of the sterilization and mite removal functions, consumers also need to pay attention to some matters when using automatic washing machines. First, use various functions correctly according to the instructions of the washing machine and choose the appropriate washing program and detergent. Secondly, clean and maintain the washing machine regularly to keep the inside of the washing machine clean and hygienic. Finally, for some special materials of clothing, such as silk, wool, etc., choose the appropriate washing method to avoid damaging the clothes.
