Dampen er afgørende for en effektiv strygning, men dens virkning er ikke kendt af mange. Få indsigt i, hvorfor og hvordan damp er så vigtig, når du stryger tøj.
Omformning af tekstiler
Hvad er strygning egentlig? Det er omformningen af tekstil fra krøllet til glat. Simpelt nok ved første øjekast, men ganske interessant, når du kigger nærmere: Varmen fra strygejernet løsner forbindelsen mellem molekylekæderne i fibrene. Trykket fra sålepladen omformer derefter stoffet, og når det køler ned, genopbygges forbindelsen mellem molekylekæderne. Så hvad der før var en genstridig fold, er nu glat og forbliver sådan (indtil det bliver brugt og vasket igen...).
Steam speeds up heating up
Compared to „dry“ ironing, using steam speeds up the heating of the fabric considerably. The reason is that steam transports heat quicker than dry air, so the heat permeates the fabric a lot faster and deeper with steam. This is another way of saying that with steam, you iron faster.
Moisture needed
Steam is not only a highly efficient mode of transport of heat. Steam is water turned to gas and normally contains tiny water droplets - that is what you see when steam comes from your steam iron. So steam is also transporting moisture into the fabric, which is essential for natural materials like cotton.
Not all water boils at 100°C
We all learned at school that 100°C is the temperature at which water boils and turns to steam. This is still true, but only applies to normal atmospheric pressure at sea level. So if you don’t live somewhere on the top of the world the steam coming out of your iron has 100°C. In a steam generator iron, steam is generated under pressure in a separate unit. And the higher the pressure here, the later the water boils and the hotter the steam: steam generated at 5 bar has already 150°C. So the higher pressure makes the steam hotter and lets it permeate the fabric faster and deeper.
