Extracted Heavy Metal
Heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), and nickel (Ni) are widely used for the production of dyes or pigments for textiles. Heavy metals in textiles problems arise because small amounts of complex metals can be extracted from the cloth with a sweat solution. In contrast, in its use, direct contact between the fabric and the skin is unavoidable. The toxic effects of heavy metals on humans are well known. Therefore, the determination of migration of heavy metals from textiles needs to be carried out because it harms health.
