衣服面料化学污染对人体健康的潜在影响

大多数染料是从煤焦油中提取出来的芳香胺类合成的。1985年就有人发现芳香胺类具有致癌性。1974年欧洲染料制造工业生态学与毒理学协会通过试验筛选出50多种芳香胺类染料，其中有22种致癌作用很明显。1994年德国修订了“日用品法”，明确规定：做衣服、鞋袜等的纺织面料禁止使用偶氮染料；接着，贝尔公司宣布在本国市场上禁止用邻甲苯胺、对氯苯胺等118种染料，到1997年已增至141种，美国AATCC公司已用环保型染料取代可分解为芳香胺类的染料，印度为保持纺织品出口大国的地位，到2000年已停止使用梁料品种116个，并建立了数个生态纺织品生产中心，目前，国际上要求，纺织品生产、供应商应向消费者出示衣服中不含有致癌性，致过敏性和环境激素等性质的染料说明书。

The Potential Impacts of Chemical Pollution of Cloth Textile on Human Health

Most of pigments were made of aromatics extracted from cola tar. As early as 1895, aromatics were found to be carcinogenic. In 1974, ETAD had tested 50 more kinds of aromatics and found that 22 had carcinogenic role. In 1994, Germany revised the law of articles of everyday use and clearly stipulated that aromatics were prohibited to be used in production of cloth dye. Bayer had prohibited the use of 118 kinds of pigments such as aromatics, etc. In 1997, the number of prohibited pigments rose to 141. The AATCC in America plans to use environment-protecting pigments instead of aromatic pigments. In order to keep the status of great power in export textile, India had prohibited the use of 116 kinds of pigments and built a monitoring center.Internationally, the trader should show the customer a booklet of instructions indicating that the cloth does not have any pigments, which may be carcinogenic, allergenic or have hormone disrupting characteristics.
