\"Camicie\"<\/a>Environmentally speaking, the best thing is to use cold water, in order to save energy. However, in detergency lukewarm is better than cold water. Why?<\/p>\n

First of all, dirt is better solubilized with increasing temperature values<\/strong>, as in most aqueous solutions… just think about sugar into coffe: it is better to add it as long as coffee is hot, so it will be dissolved earlier!<\/p>\n

In detergency there are specific parameters about temperature. For example, some surfactants (ingredients acting on surface tension) work well at 25\u00b0C (77\u00b0F), others are optimized at higher temperatures.<\/p>\n

Also very ecologic detergents need at least 25\u00b0-30\u00b0C (77\u00b0-86\u00b0F) to wash well<\/strong>, higher temperatures\u00a0than ones of waterworks (5\u00b0-10\u00b0C, 41\u00b0-50\u00b0F) in winter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
