Develop an Efficient Washing Method for Surface Stains on Shoe Material of Sneakers
In order to develop an efficient washing method for surface stains on shoe material of sneakers, the influence of different washing methods on the washing efficiency of stains on properties of sports shoes was systematically investigated. Results showed that no matter what kind of shoe material, the type of surfactant was the most important factor affecting the washing efficiency, and with the increase of the amount of surfactant, the washing efficiency first increased and then decreased, indicating that the dosage of surfactant should be controlled at moderate concentration (12–16%) in the actual use process. And the decontamination ability of surfactants was also further improved due to the mixture of auxiliaries and enzymes. The washing efficiency of the washing mode with mechanical action was obviously more excellent than that without mechanical action. In addition, it was found that with the removal of surface stains, the wear properties of shoe material of sneakers showed a tendency of returning to the initial state, indicating that it is feasible to reasonably set the washing method to achieve efficient and low-damage washing shoes. The conclusion provided reference for the development of special detergent for shoes and new shoe-washing equipment, and enrich the washing theory.
