Precautions for purchasing car seat cushions

    Precautions for purchasing car seat cushions

    First, choose the seat cushion according to the model of your car. At present, seat covers on the market are mainly divided into two types: general-purpose and special-purpose. The universal seat cover is mainly designed according to mainstream Volkswagen models and matches with most vehicles. However, there are still large differences in the seats of some models, and there will be insufficient aesthetics in the actual matching process. Therefore, it is recommended to communicate with customer service in detail before choosing.

    Second, the friction between the seat cover and the seat and the fixing device are very important. When the friction force is small, the body will involuntarily slide out of the seat cushion during emergency braking, which will affect normal driving and safety.
    Third, when choosing a seat cover, it must be harmoniously matched with the color of the car interior decoration, so as not to affect the overall image of the car and reduce the taste of the car owner.
    Fourth, the material of the seat cover must be environmentally friendly and tasteless. Don't buy low-quality leather seat covers for cheap, as the sun will emit various harmful gases. I once bought a Mondeo special seat cover and floor mat, the price is relatively cheap, and the smell of leather is still very strong after being placed for a week, which truly restores the saying that whoever buys it will know.
    Fifth, if the seat is equipped with an airbag, if you buy a fully-wrapped seat cover in the event of a safety accident, it will directly affect the most basic protective effect of the airbag. If the package cannot come out, it may explode and cause secondary damage. At this time, we must pay attention to whether the seat cover has taken this into account, and there are corresponding special designs.
    Mainstream Materials and Characteristics of Car Seat Cushion
    1. Currently, the mainstream materials for car seat covers on the market
    Summer: flax, ice silk, wooden beads, bamboo chips Universal: Genuine Leather, Faux Leather
    2. Features flax
    The flax fiber is tough and soft, and its strength is 1.5 times that of cotton fiber and 1.6 times that of spun silk. At the same time, it has unique advantages such as strong hygroscopicity, fast heat dissipation, friction resistance, high temperature resistance, non-flammability, non-cracking, low conductivity, low dust absorption rate, antibacterial health care, etc. It is widely used in the production of car seat cushions. Its heat dissipation performance is five times that of ordinary ice silk materials, 17-19 times that of cotton cloth, and it absorbs heat slowly. The use of linen cushions is cooler than ordinary car seat cushions. 3-4 times lower.
    Ice silk
    Ice silk generally refers to viscose fiber, which is a kind of man-made fiber. Scientifically refined from natural cotton leather. The car seat cover made of ice silk has the characteristics of good ventilation, automatic humidity control, and slow heating in sunlight. Moreover, the moisture content of the ice silk car seat cushion is most in line with the physiological requirements of human skin, and it has the characteristics of smooth and cool, breathable, antistatic, and colorful. It also has the effects of anti-mildew, insect-proof, anti-static, and no radiation.
    Jade generally has a good cooling effect, and jade seat cushions are generally woven with ice silk and jade square pieces, presenting a noble and elegant visual effect. But the disadvantage is that if the car is exposed to the hot sun for a long time, the seat cushion will be very hot, and the air conditioner needs to be turned on to cool it down first, otherwise it will be impossible to sit on it.
    wooden beads, bamboo chips
    Bamboo chips and wooden beads heat up and cool down faster, have good air permeability, and are cheap.
    Genuine Leather
    Generally, cowhide is used, which has a warm and cool feeling and has antibacterial properties. Divided into two grades, the cheaper one is split leather, which is made of cowhide from different parts. The more expensive one is the top layer of hide, which is made from the best part of the cow and is thinner and softer than the second layer of hide.
    artificial leather
    Artificial leather, which is made of various PVC and PU foams or film-coated on a woven or non-woven fabric base, has a wide variety of designs and colors, good waterproof performance, neat edges, and high utilization rate The characteristics of high quality and relatively cheap price of genuine leather. It is easier to clean when used to make car seat upholstery, but the disadvantage is that it is not breathable, and some artificial leather smells relatively strong, so you need to buy high-quality products.
