Color
Change
of
Metal
Zipper |
|
|
|
a. |
Zippers
are
made
of
Brass
Alloy
(including
Nickel,
Copper
and
Brass)
When
zippers
are
used
on
Metallic
or
woolen
products,
oxidation
of
the
metal
cause
zipper
teeth
turn
black.
This
phenomenon
is
resulted
from
the
reaction
between
the
metal
zipper
teeth
and
the
chemical
residue
left
on
the
surface
of
the
products. |
|
|
b. |
Chemical
reaction
occurs
in
Metal
zippers
under
acidic
or
alkaline
solution.
Special
attention
should
be
paid
in
garment
wash.
Chemical
agents
used
in
garment
wash
may
cause
oxidation
of
metal
zippers.
To
prevent
the
unnecessary
problems
occur,
it
is
recommended
to
do
the
own
test
before
in
order
to
ensure
the
selected
zipper
is
suitable
for
your
intended
use. |
|
|
c. |
Rubber
bands
contain
sulphide,
which
will
oxidized
the
metal
zipper
teeth
and
cause
the
teeth
turn
black. |

2. |
Color
Fading
Occur
on
Slider |
|
|
|
Most
zipper
sliders
are
made
of
Zinc
Alloy.
Then
they
have
to
go
through
electro-plating
or
enamel
paint
process
to
get
the
required
color
of
coating.
The
thin
layer
of
coating
would
be
peeled
off
or
damaged
under
strong
friction
or
collision.
To
prevent
such
a
damage,
please
avoid
the
slider
and
puller
to
collide
or
impact
with
hard
surface
especially
during
garment
wash.
Under
tumbling
force,
the
strong
collision
force
would
cause
the
slider
coating
peel
off.
It
is
recommended
to
turn
the
garment
inside
out
before
washing,
or
to
wrap
up
the
sliders
with
fabric
for
protection
purpose. |

3. |
Slider
or
Puller
Broken
Occur
After
Garment
Wash |
|
|
|
Slider
crampers
and
pullers
have
their
standard
of
resistance
to
pull-off
and
twisting.
When
force
applied
exceeds
the
slider
cramper
and
pullers
could
resist,
the
slider
will
be
broken.
Occasionally,
broken
sliders
were
found
after
garment
wash.
The
major
reason
of
damage
is
the
slider
puller
being
inserted
into
the
drain
hole
of
washing
drum
during
washing.
Under
strong
tumbling
force,
the
slider
cramper
and
puller
would
be
damaged.
To
avoid
this
damage,
it
is
recommended
to
perform
the
garment
wash
by
zipping
up
the
garment
and
turn
inside
out
before
wash,
or
using
laundry
bag
during
washing. |
