What material is the best pillow?

Question 1: What is the material of the pillow? Buckwheat husk with moderate hardness. This is the most common pillow filler. Moderate hardness, good formability and water absorption, relatively light. The disadvantage is poor elasticity, and the pillow will make noise when the head and neck are moving, which may affect people who are prone to insomnia.

Rice husk with good water absorption is better than buckwheat husk in shaping and water absorption, but it will be slightly heavier and make noise when people are active.

The molded rice bran skin has certain formability, but its sharp edge is easy to pierce the cloth and skin, and it also has the disadvantage of making noise.

Breathable fluffy down fiber has good resilience, temperature and humidity control function and high air permeability, which can provide a dry and comfortable "small environment" for human body. Down pillows can't be washed. People with allergies had better avoid using this pillow to avoid respiratory discomfort.

Many high-quality artificial fillers do not lose natural fillers in many aspects such as heat preservation, moisture absorption and resilience, and some have good antibacterial, mildew-proof and disease-prevention functions because of the characteristics of materials or additives.

Easy-to-clean ordinary man-made fiber This filler is chemical fiber cotton wool, which is easy to wash, even can be washed by washing machine, and can also be compressed and stored in vacuum compression bag, and the price is cheap. However, the permeability of chemical fiber cotton wool is not very good, and it is easy to form balls and agglomerate after being used for a long time, thus lacking elasticity and shortening life.

High-tech hollow fiber hollow fiber is a high-tech product and a composite material. One to several air holes run through ordinary man-made fibers with poor air permeability, so that each fiber can store more air. The pillow made of this filler greatly improves the elasticity, warmth retention, bulkiness and service life. Because of the different materials and additives, some of them also have health care and medical functions.

Latex filler, which can also be used by people with allergies, is a kind of filling material made of natural rubber through foaming process. Because it comes from pure natural materials, it is non-toxic and tasteless, and has no adverse effects on the human body. The whole structure of latex avoids the interference of fine fibers to human body, and is especially suitable for allergic people and asthma patients. In addition, latex has good air permeability, is not easy to deform and is easy to shape, and can provide suitable support for cervical vertebrae. However, due to raw material factors, the price of latex pillows is relatively expensive.

Question 2: What kind of pillow is better? Pillow core is the key factor in choosing a pillow. Although many pillows look beautiful, they are not comfortable to use. Therefore, to choose a suitable pillow, in addition to the noodles, we should also consider the lining.

The traditional pillow core is filled with cotton, broken wheat straw and so on. The biggest drawback is that it can't effectively support the weight of the head and neck, which is easy to deform and will breed bacteria. There are many kinds of materials for making pillow cores now.

Here are some common pillows. You might as well choose a pillow that suits you according to your own needs.

Buckwheat pillow. Using buckwheat shell as pillow core is a traditional pillow used by the people. Buckwheat shell is light and has a tough and unbreakable diamond structure. As a pillow core, it can change shape with the movement of the head, which is warm in winter and cool in summer, and has the effect of clearing heat and dispelling fire. But the disadvantage is that it is not suitable for cleaning, and it is best to bask regularly.

Ordinary man-made fiber pillow. Its advantage is that it is easy to clean, but due to the lack of elasticity and permeability of chemical fiber materials, it will deform and agglomerate after a long time of use, making the pillow uneven, especially for inferior chemical fiber pillows from some small manufacturers.

Porous breathable fiber pillow. We often see different brands of four-hole pillows, seven-hole pillows and nine-hole pillows in shopping malls. The filler inside is actually a kind of chemical synthetic fiber commonly known as fluffy cotton. In the process of making, the fiber center of fluffy cotton will form a cavity, which is called a hole. The number of holes in different processes is different. Generally speaking, this pillow core has high air permeability and good elasticity, which is very helpful for sleep.

Down pillow. A good down pillow has good bulkiness, will not be deformed due to long-term use, and has the advantages of light weight, breathability and no mugginess. But it is not easy to clean, and some people are allergic to down.

Natural latex pillow. It has the advantages of good elasticity, sterility, difficult deformation, strong support and easy cleaning, but the price is relatively expensive.

Natural cork pillow. Cork particles are made of pure natural cork through dozens of special processes, which have the characteristics of softness, good elasticity, light weight, good sweat absorption and high air permeability. Users can also change the shape of the pillow as needed, which is more conducive to the health care of cervical vertebrae.

Because the pillowcase will be in close contact with the skin of the head and neck, it is best to choose breathable and absorbent cotton fabric for the front of the pillowcase.

Feather pillow core is soft, comfortable and fluffy. The hotel uses down bedding, which is a five-star enjoyment. You can go to Taobao to see our Shu Meng Ai bedding. There is a lot of knowledge about feather bedding.

Pay attention to the height, hardness, elasticity and material of pillow core when purchasing pillows.

height

The height of the pillow is related to the quality of sleep and health.

Too high a pillow will slowly deform the cervical spine, strain the neck muscles, and may also promote bone spurs.

Form.

When the pillow is high, the breathing will not be smooth, and it is easy to dry mouth, sore throat and snore.

After waking up, I will feel sore neck, headache, dizziness and tinnitus.

Whether the pillow is low or not is not good for the cervical spine. It's easy to open your mouth and breathe and snore. When I woke up,

There will be head edema, irritability and facial edema.

So, how high is the pillow? This will vary from person to person, everyone's fat shoulders.

Neck width, length, sleeping position, etc. Are all related.

The suitable height of pillow is generally 10~ 15 cm, which is suitable for people with broad shoulders, fat body and long neck.

The pillow should be a little higher.

People who are used to sleeping on their backs should press their pillows to the height of their fists.

The height of the tiger's mouth is the same; For people who are used to sleeping on their side, the height of the pillow should be compressed.

It is appropriate to be consistent with the width of one shoulder.

In addition, patients with hypertension, heart disease and asthma have slightly higher pillows and lower blood pressure.

People with anemia had better use a slightly lower pillow.

Hardness and elasticity

An excellent pillow, the contact area between the head and the pillow is small, and the local pressure is high, so it is difficult to fall asleep.

Comfortable.

If the pillow is too soft, the head will sink in, which will affect the blood circulation and make the head numb, which is easy to cause.

Tired of neck muscles.

The elasticity of the pillow should not be too large, otherwise the neck will be very tired and it will easily cause neck muscle damage.

material

There are many kinds of materials for pillow filling, and you can choose according to your own preferences.

buckwheat husk

Buckwheat husk is a pure natural material with moderate hardness and good air permeability. The shape of this pillow

It can change with the head moving left and right, and it is very comfortable to sleep; But the elasticity is poor, in the head

There will be noise during activities, which will affect sleep. Not suitable for people who are prone to insomnia.

artificial fiber

Question 3: It is best to choose pillow materials according to your own habits and needs.

The custom in many places is to use buckwheat pillows, which are very comfortable to sleep and can be cleaned in the sun at any time; Although the chemical fiber pillow is cheap, it is not very breathable and easy to agglomerate when used for a long time. Not recommended. Latex pillows are expensive, but elastic, not easy to deform, and some have the function of promoting blood circulation; Down pillow is a good pillow material, but it can't be washed. Generally speaking, the health pillow is a medicinal pillow made of traditional Chinese medicine combined with forage. The effect depends on your own feelings.

Question 4: What material is good for pillows? Pillows made of natural latex are very popular now. Latex is a natural material, which comes from the sap of rubber tree. They are extremely precious, because each rubber tree can only produce 30cc of latex juice every day. Latex, as an advanced raw material in medicine, is harmless to human body. Does not contain toxins. Even if it is overheated or burned, it will not produce toxic substances. Latex materials also have antibacterial and mite-proof functions, and have good elasticity and support.

Question 5: What material is good for pillows? Pillows are made of skin-friendly pure cotton, or blended. As far as pillow stuffing is concerned, it can be said that it is varied and has its own advantages and disadvantages. However, I still recommend the resin hose. This new type of filler has good resilience, air permeability and insect-free, and it is good in all aspects.

Question 6: What material should I buy for a good latex pillow? (1) Sponge: soft and elastic, can be cut at will, with low price, convenient material acquisition and simple manufacturing process. However, the sponge is airtight, has poor heat dissipation and dehumidification functions, and is easy to age and decompose, losing its elasticity. Sponges can hide mites and bacteria, leading to allergic reactions or respiratory diseases. So sponge pillows are not good pillows. (2) Memory sponge: also known as slow rebound sponge. Pillows made of this material are called space pillows, which belong to unnatural substances and are made of polyurethane. Memory sponge has the advantages and disadvantages of the above sponge, so space pillow is not a good pillow. However, it has one feature, which is different from the sponge mentioned above. The memory sponge contains temperature memory particles, which will induce temperature when it comes into contact with the human body, forming a concave-convex surface that completely conforms to the body shape. Just like the kind of plasticine that children play with, if you press the curved thing up, the plasticine will remain curved all the time; When something straight is pressed up, the plasticine will remain straight all the time. It has the function of preserving the concave-convex shape of human body, but it has no ability to correct the deformity of cervical spine queue, so the memory sponge pillow is worse than the general sponge pillow. Because the curvature of cervical vertebra of patients with cervical vertebra is generally straight, the curvature of cervical vertebra of patients after sleeping this space pillow is still straight. Therefore, it should be said that memory sponge pillow (space pillow) is of no benefit to the prevention and treatment of cervical spondylosis. (3) Latex: Latex is a milky white liquid that flows out after cutting tropical rubber trees. Low-temperature emulsification, vacuum foaming, high-pressure one-step molding, and no chemical agent is added in the production process. Latex is soft and wear-resistant, never hardens and deforms, has the function of preventing mites and bacteria from breeding, does not cause respiratory tract allergies, and is beneficial to skin health. In the process of processing, the open cells of latex naturally form countless interconnected small ventilation rooms, plus nearly a thousand specially designed ventilation holes, which ensure the air circulation inside and outside the pillow, quickly dissipate excess heat and moisture in the head and neck, and maintain a good sleeping environment. Latex is used in infant pacifiers, medical gloves, surgical drainage tubes and other health fields because of its good elasticity, delicacy, non-toxicity and bacteriostasis. Latex is the mainstream material of top bedding in developed countries. Latex is an ideal pillow material.

Question 7: What material is the pillow filler? A good pillow filler is necessary for every pillow. It is very important to have a good sleeping pillow. The quality of the pillow depends on the pillow core, so what? I'll tell you next. First, the loess ball is made of natural loess with high germanium content, sintered by special process and calcined at high temperature. Smooth particles, uniform size, bright color, strong wear resistance, far infrared, no radiation. Loess contains more than 30 kinds of trace elements beneficial to human body, such as selenium, manganese, zinc, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, calcium, potassium, strontium, ytterbium and so on. , can stimulate the activity of enzyme, improve the catalytic effect of enzyme, thus improving metabolic function, promoting the digestion and absorption of nutrients, enhancing disease resistance, promoting growth and development, and has high physical therapy effect. Loess seeks efficacy: 1, radiates negative ions: negative ions have the functions of purifying air, preventing corrosion, improving sleep, improving air quality and removing clothes dirt; 2. Radiating far infrared rays: it can radiate far infrared rays beneficial to human body, and is used in greenhouses, decorative health care products and other places, with health care and therapeutic effects; 3, shielding electromagnetic radiation: laying walls and floors with loess balls can reduce the electromagnetic radiation of the environment to the human body; 4. Nutrition and health care function: after soaking in tap water, the vessels made of loess balls produce trace elements close to or exceeding natural mineral water; Put it in the bathtub and use it as a human body, which can promote blood circulation and provide human immunity; 5. Anti-bacterial and anti-corrosion function: prevent the inhabitation of molds and various fungi harmful to human body and reduce the harm to human body; 6, adsorption: can quickly absorb harmful odors such as food odor and smoke smell; 7. Humidity adjustment: the relative humidity of the use environment can be maintained; 8. Energy saving: it can emit far infrared rays after absorbing heat, shortening the heating time. Second, buckwheat skin with moderate hardness: this is the most common pillow filler. Moderate hardness, good formability and water absorption, relatively light. The disadvantage is poor elasticity, and the pillow will make noise when the head and neck are moving, which may affect people who are prone to insomnia. Third, the rice husk with good water absorption: the formability and water absorption are better than buckwheat shells, but it will be slightly heavier, and there will be noise when people are active. 4. Well-formed rice bran skin: it has certain plasticity, but its sharp edge is easy to pierce cloth and skin, and it is also easy to make noise. 5.PP cotton: This filler is the most common one on the market. It is amorphous, some feel very slippery, and some feel very astringent. This is because the silicone oil added is different. The choice depends on the whiteness of cotton, white is relatively better, and gray materials are generally recycled. In addition, it is best not to cake easily. You can try to tear it by hand, it is easy to tear (that is, it has good bulkiness). When you make your own pillow core, when you fill it with cotton, you should tear it up before filling it. Don't use anything that smells bad, and don't use anything with other powder layers. But this kind of cotton, after a long time, is not easy to pat loose and easy to agglomerate. 6. Pearl cotton: This is also a filler that can be seen in the market. It's pearl-shaped. Because it is a single small particle, it is not easy to agglomerate and has good elasticity. It can be confirmed from the color and bulkiness. As with the above identification method, the particles should be as uniform as possible. This kind of cotton has a high cost performance. Time can be used longer than PP cotton. When you are flat, you will get fat when you clap. Microfiber (2.5D cotton or 3D cotton): This kind of cotton looks like PP cotton, but it feels soft, not easy to agglomerate and has poor elasticity. Pillows of the same size are about 50% more than the above two kinds of cotton. The price is also high, and it is unlikely to be bought in the general market. When some guests have to do this, we will add PP cotton according to a certain proportion to improve its bulkiness and weight. So if a shopkeeper says he can provide it to you, be especially careful and don't be fooled. Eight, breathable fluffy down: down fiber has good resilience, and has the function of adjusting temperature and humidity, high permeability, and can provide a dry and comfortable "small environment" for the human body. Down pillows can't be washed. People with allergies had better avoid using this pillow to avoid respiratory discomfort. Recommended reading of related articles: How to choose baby pillow filler?
