Did you ever thought about how a beach towel dries so fast and soaks all the water in a jiffy? Well, maybe you should. “Science is everywhere”, the old saying is true to its core. Something as common as a beach towel has a lot of science about it. What make it all-the-more interesting are the reasons behind it. Here are a few things you definitely didn’t knew about your daily use round beach towel:
The round towels that you use every day on your beach have two sides, one which is looped and the other which is soft. The looped side is made to soak water. This side of the towel has loops of Velour Cotton on the outside to soak water off your body. These loops are at distances to make sure they dry real quickly. Closely threaded loops can soak a lot of water but do not dry as quickly as you want from a beach towel. The other side, the soft one with no loops is made to face outside. This side also has its own use. The beach towel that you use is also to lie down to soak in some much needed Vitamin D from the sun and this soft side of the towel is to lie down on.
The looped side which faces the earth while you lie down on the soft side dries up by the time you get up from the beach. This heat of the sun that faces the soft side helps to dry it up. The loops on the beach towel are made at distances to also make sure its light weight and easy to carry while it soaks water or when it’s dry.
