How long does a collodion baby live?
Collodion baby refers to newborn clothing made of collodion as a dressing. Because of its excellent thermal insulation performance and breathability, it has attracted much attention from young parents. However, some parents are skeptical about collodion due to its safety hazards. So, how long does a collodion baby live? Let’s answer this question from four aspects.
1. Service life of collodion
Collodion is a dressing material made from a mixture of collodion and short fibers. Because the quality of collodion cotton not only depends on the quality of raw materials, but also takes into account the processing technology and quality control during the production process. Therefore, the service life of collodion may vary. Generally speaking, the service life can be divided into the following stages:
1. Newly added collod cotton baby clothes need to be washed or exposed to the sun before use to remove odors and chemical residues.
2. Normal use stage. If the baby\’s clothing does not have extensive wear, cannot withstand pulling, does not pill, does not fade, does not shed, and is easy to restore its shape when aired, then the service life can be about two years.
3. Aging stage. During daily use, if the collod cotton clothing appears to be obviously deformed, hard, yellow, or broken, it needs to be replaced in time.
2. How to maintain collodion cotton
In order to extend the service life of collod cotton baby clothes, in addition to paying attention to daily cleaning and preventing friction, there are also the following maintenance methods:
1. After drying, it is best to fold it up and put it away to avoid overlapping folds and prevent the clothes from deforming.
2. Collodion is not resistant to high temperatures, so when drying it in a dryer or electric oven, do not dry it at high temperature to avoid wrinkles or deformation on the surface.
3. Collodion cotton should not be washed frequently. The more times it is washed, the shorter its lifespan will be. Therefore, do not use washing powder or soap, ammonia and other items to clean collodion unless necessary.
3. Safety issues of collodion

4. How to choose high-quality collod cotton baby clothes
When buying collod cotton baby clothes, we can choose from the following high-quality products:
