Scent booster vs fabric softener

Season clothes are prone to sweaty smell! Very pungent! In order to prevent such sweaty odors from appearing on clothes, many people like to choose scented beads. So, what’s the difference between fragrance beads and softeners?

The difference between fragrance beads and softener

1, the shape is different.

One is solid and the other is liquid, which is easy to distinguish.

2, the role is different.

Although the fragrance beads claim that in addition to the role of perfume, they also have the functions of softeners and fresheners, they are still inferior to softeners and cannot be used as a substitute for softeners.

From the point of view of suppleness, the clothes washed with fragrance beads are still not soft enough, and it mainly focuses on fragrance. The softener is the main fabric softener. Therefore, the two types are different experiences, one focusing on taste and one focusing on feeling close to the skin.

What are the fragrance beads? The fragrance beads are laundry care products (or laundry companions). Pour in an appropriate amount of fragrance beads while washing clothes. After washing, the fragrance will stay on the clothes for a long time.

The principle is that through friction, the smart microcapsules are exploded, releasing a pleasant fragrance, lasting fragrance on clothes, and resisting peculiar smells such as hot pot and barbecue. It is precise because of this principle that the effect of machine washing is better than that of hand washing. After all, the number and intensity of friction of machine washing are greater than those of hand washing.

What does softener do? Softener is a washing care product that is suitable for fabric washing and care process, and used in conjunction with detergent to make fabrics soft, and fluffy, and eliminate static electricity.

The function of the fabric softener is to evenly apply a protective film to the surface of the fabric fibers. Due to the adsorption of the softener on the surface of the fibers, the friction coefficient between the fibers is reduced, and the inherent smoothness, extension, and compression properties of the fibers are also restored. Become more soft, fluffy, and elastic.

Which is better, fragrance beads or softener? If there is a need to soften clothes, it is best to use a softener in combination.

From the point of view of softness, the clothes washed with fragrance beads are still wrinkled and not soft enough, except for the fragrance, it seems that there is no softening effect.

In addition, it is best to machine wash the fragrance beads. Some clothes are not machine washable, so in this regard, it is not particularly convenient.

The fabric softener can neutralize the alkaline residue of the laundry detergent, and it is also rich in protective cations, which can make the clothes soft and smooth, prevent static electricity, and not easy to fade. And many softeners are also scented. Compared with the fragrance beads, it is more cost-effective.
