What factors influence the service life of nano sponges?

Nano sponge has a limited service life which is generally around three months, but the service life is influenced by various factors. As a manufacturer of nano sponges with a wealth of experience, Enda have summarized four main factors. Three of them are external factors and the other is internal. Then I will introduce them in detail.

1. The frequency of use. Nano sponge does cleaning by absorbing stains, if it is used too often, it will become saturated with stains and shorten its service life. For example, sponges can have a longer service life when you use one nano sponge to regularly clean just the table or plates, rather than one nano sponge to do all household cleaning. That's why Enda recommends the regular use of nano sponges.

2.The object of cleaning. In general, we avoid using nano sponges to clean objects with very rough surfaces; rough surfaces and sharp objects can damage nano sponges. Of course, when using nano sponges to clean different objects, we also recommend using different types of nano sponges. This not only cleans the objects more effectively, but also prolongs the service life of the nano sponge. For example, you can easily clean a table or dishes with a normal density sponge, but if you are cleaning the inside of a microwave or refrigerator, we recommend using a high density sponge.

3.The way to clean the nano sponge. If you don't clean the nano sponge at all or take the wrong way to clean it after using, this will of course affect the life of the nano sponge as well. If the sponge is not cleaned properly, the stains will remain inside the nano sponge and breed bacteria, which will have a significant impact on the lifespan of the sponge. In addition, squeezing water too vigorously will damage the internal structure of the nano sponge, reducing its flexibility, thus reducing the service life of the nano sponge.

The quality of the nano sponge itself. You might think that all nano sponges are of same good quality, but it is not true. The quality of the nano sponge is influenced by the raw material and the production process, while the quality of the nano sponge also determines its service life. 

As a professional manufacturer and one of the most reputed names in melamine foam fabrication industry in China, Enda use melamine to make the nano foam. Melamine sponges have a special open pore structure with 99% open pore rate, which gives it a strong cleaning ability as well as a longer service life. 

What's more, there is also a service life gap between these sponge types. Typically, the density of high density sponge can reach 12-23kg/m3, the density of normal density sponge is usually 8-8.5kg/m3.Which means high density nano sponge is more durable than normal density nano sponge.Therefore, Enda recommend using high density nano sponge.

The service life of a nano sponge is influenced by a number of factors. In our daily cleaning use, we should fully consider these factors in order to extend the service life of the nano sponge and give it maximum value.
