Characteristics of Good Washing Powder and its Usage Amount

Choosing laundry detergent is one of the most critical and challenging tasks when shopping; Because a wrong choice can ruin the clothes or leave them dirty. Using any detergent has a unique method, and you should pay attention to it. Detergents are of different types based on the model of washing machines, colour and style of fabrics and should be used in a certain amount. If the amount of powder we put in the washing machine is less than needed, the clothes won’t be cleaned well and will remain dirty. On the contrary, if we put too much powder in the washing machine, we will damage the texture of the fabrics. In this article, in addition to the characteristics of a good washing powder, we will review some tips for putting powder in the washing machine and other essential things. So stay tuned to the end.

Characteristics of good washing powder

As science and technology progressed, especially in the 20th century, scientists realized how complex the physical and chemical process of washing was. They believe the essential condition when washing clothes is to use proper and appropriate detergents. Wearing neat and clean clothes boosts one’s mood and increases self-confidence. Using authentic products preserves the original state of clothes and significantly impacts cleanliness, increasing the life of clothes and keeping the washing machine healthy.

You should use special powders with high cleaning power to wash white clothes. One of the characteristics of a good washing powder for white clothes is that it stabilizes their white colour in the long run. Also, these powders are designed to bring back shine and vitality to clothes. Washing white clothes with non-standard detergent causes the clothes to fade and change from white to yellow. If you use the wrong washing powder, the clothes will look unpleasant, and some bacteria and fungi will remain in the fabric fibres. On the other hand, using suitable washing powder for white clothes increases the life of the clothes and preserves their beauty.

Here are a few tips when identifying the suitable powder

When buying a suitable washing powder, you should pay attention to its use. The amount of solubility in water, the enzymes in the washing powder, the amount of cleaning, the stain removal power and the scent of detergents are essential issues you should pay attention to when buying. Below are some tips for identifying a good washing powder for washing clothes:

Characteristics of good powder for white clothes

  • Foreign brands of washing powder write the word white on the packaging.
  • Foreign brands that produce their products in Iran mention the word “white” on the powder of white clothes.
  • Sometimes one or more graphic designs of clothes or white fabrics are designed on the packages.
  • Domestic brands write “for white clothes” on their packaging.

Characteristics of good powder for coloured clothes

These powders have an enzyme that prevents damage to the fibres and colours of clothes. On the detergent packaging for coloured clothes, the sign “colour” is written, and the words “special for coloured clothes” are written on it. High-quality washing powder has a controlled cleaning power and doesn’t harm the colour of the fabric; At the same time, it removes pus and stains from clothes. In addition to the above, there are many other factors to identify a good washing powder, some of which we have introduced below:

  • Suitable and high-quality detergents are provided with appropriate packaging.
  • Before buying, check the ingredients of the powder and get a powder that has effective enzymes.
  • A good washing powder can easily dissolve in water at any temperature.
  • The manufacturer of the correct detergent meets specific standards in the composition of the products.
  • A good washing powder is a powder that can be used to wash all kinds of textiles and clothes, and there’s no limit to its use.
  • The scent of the powders induces a sense of cleanliness; Therefore, a suitable powder has a pleasant aroma.
  • We all use powders to remove dirt and stains from fabric. So, the power of cleaning and stain removal is another point that should be considered.

How to put the powder in the washing machine?

Washing machines are considered essential home appliances, and most people are obsessed with choosing them. With the advancement of technology, manufacturing companies make this choice more complex daily by changing the design and performance of their products. After buying a washing machine, taking care of it becomes very important. One of the points of using washing machine powder that manufacturers also pay attention to is the way of adding detergent to it. Among the factors that affect the solubility of the detergent is the method of adding it to the washing system. In terms of appearance, washing machines are divided into two main categories: door from the top and exit from the front, and the method of pouring powder in each is different.

The powder should be poured into the washing tank for washing machines whose lid is installed in the upper part. In this category of devices, for the detergent to dissolve entirely in the water, we must first pour the detergent into the boiler and dissolve it in the water. After the powder is dissolved in the water, we run the dirty clothes into the pot. The washing system in those washing machines whose door is installed in the front is fully automatic, and the place to add detergent is designed as a drawer. In these machines, we put any type of detergent, including powder, bleaching liquid, and softener, in their particular parts in the drawer, and they automatically enter the washing pot.

How much powder should we put in the washing machine?

One of the most important things to pay attention to when washing clothes is the amount of detergent poured into the machine. The amount of detergent powder plays a vital role in the cleanliness of clothes and the health of the washing machine and clothes. It must have happened that you weren’t satisfied with the cleanliness of your clothes after washing them. Dirty clothes can signify that the amount of detergent wasn’t enough. On the other hand, the presence of white spots on the clothes or machine compartment indicates that the amount of detergent is too small and it isn’t washed from the clothes fibres and the machine washing compartment.

Using too much washing powder can cause much more severe damage to the machine. For example, depositing an excess amount of powder under the washing basin causes mould and bad smell in the washing chamber. In such a situation, with each washing, more microbes are absorbed into the clothes and the possibility of skin allergies increases. To know how much powder to put in the washing machine, we must keep a few points in mind:

  • The amount of dirtiness of the clothes,
  • The volume of clothes and water hardness. The greater the amount of dirt, the importance of clothes or the hardness of the water, the more powder should be poured into the washing machine.

Usually, one pint of washing powder will be enough for filthy and large clothes filling the washing machine. However, if the clothes don’t have special stains or the capacity of the washing machine is half full, half a pint of powder is enough to wash the clothes. Paying attention to the amount of dirt, the volume of clothes, the water temperature, and the type of washing and detergent can help determine the powder.

To wrap up

Improper use of the washing machine can increase its parts’ repair costs and reduce the device’s lifespan. Paying attention to a few simple points, such as the volume of clothes inside the machine and using the proper detergents, can increase its life and take care of it. Another thing that affects the cleanliness of clothes and the health of the washing machine is the type and amount of detergent.
