Textiles made of synthetic fibers are very popular in summer: they are pleasantly light to wear and dry quickly, making them the ideal companion for many of us, not only during sports, but also in the office without air conditioning. There’s only one problem: they smell unpleasant, even after repeated washing. Why and what to do about it.
Why does the Leiberl still smell, even though it has already been washed? Rachel McQueen, a textile scientist at the University of Alberta, also asked this question.
