Understanding Odorous Materials

Certain materials exhibit a propensity to retain odors more than others. Understanding their unique properties can aid in targeted odor removal strategies.

Materials with High Odor Absorption

*
  • Porous Materials: Fabrics, carpets, and upholstery absorb odors due to their microscopic pores that trap odor molecules.
  • *
  • Natural Fibers: Materials like wool and cotton naturally absorb moisture and odors, making them more susceptible to odor retention.
  • *
  • Plastics: Some plastics, such as polyethylene, can absorb and retain odors from food, chemicals, and environmental pollutants.
