How does reflective fabric work?

Reflective clothing ensures safety:

One morning on the bus, when the vehicle drove to the Third Bridge, I saw people wearing fluorescent yellow reflective clothing directing traffic on the bridge outside the window. People who often pass by that section of the road know that it is a high-risk area for traffic accidents.

Every monday or rainy day, the traffic conditions here are particularly bad, and congestion is common, especially in rainy, snowy or foggy weather, the number of traffic police on duty in the middle of the bridge will increase, because in such weather there will be more traffic accidents and worse traffic jams.

In fact, the traffic conditions on this section of the road are just the tip of the iceberg. In addition to professional knowledge and agile skills, there is only a reflective suit as a guarantee, so the reflective strips on the reflective suit must be of good quality. Therefore, the quality of the reflective suit is the top priority, after all, it is a matter of life and death, and it should not be underestimated.

In fact, the traffic conditions on this stretch of road are just the tip of the iceberg. There are countless situations in the country and even the world where traffic police are needed to direct traffic, and they happen every day in different places. The work of traffic police is not only hard but also dangerous. The work place is outdoors, and they are often exposed to wind, sun, rain and snow regardless of the cold or hot weather. The worse the traffic conditions, the more they can be seen. In addition to professional knowledge and agile skills, they also have reflective clothing as a guarantee, so the reflective strips on the reflective clothing must be of good quality. Therefore, the quality of reflective clothing is the top priority. After all, it is a matter of life and death and should not be underestimated.

 

Tips on maintenance of reflective clothing:

As people’s quality of life continues to improve, their awareness of safety protection has also been strengthened. Reflective products can be seen everywhere in our lives. For example, reflective clothing worn by traffic police, reflective raincoats, reflective strips on student uniforms, reflective logos on popular clothing, reflective cloth used on trendy shoe uppers, reflective logos on traffic signs, etc.

There are countless small particles on the surface of the reflective strip, commonly known as glass beads. When a beam of light shines on the surface of the glass beads at any angle within a certain range, the reflective layer on the surface of the beads returns the light to its light source along the direction of incidence, thereby playing a safety warning role.

Reflective clothing should first be stored in a dry and ventilated place to avoid extrusion, high temperature and corrosion by chemicals. Then do not soak for a long time, use neutral detergent to clean, use a soft brush (do not use a sharp brush head) to gently scrub the stains, and do not rub the reflective strips hard. Rinse with clean water in time and hang in a cool place to dry.
