What material are these tea towels made of?

Can I use bleach on these tea towels?

Can I use these to handle hot pots and pans?
Yes, they can provide an additional layer of protection for brief handling of hot pots and pans, but they are not a substitute for oven mitts for prolonged contact.
Troubleshooting
Tea towel has a persistent stain.
Try soaking the affected area in a mild detergent solution before washing. For tough stains, a specialized cotton stain remover can be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid bleach.
Tea towel feels rough after washing.
Ensure you are not using fabric softener, which can reduce absorbency. Tumble drying on low heat with a dryer ball can help restore softness. Ensure the towels are not over-dried.
Tea towel is not absorbing well.
New cotton towels may require a few washes to reach maximum absorbency. Ensure no residue from detergents or fabric softeners is present. Wash with a small amount of vinegar in the rinse cycle to help remove residue.
Tea towel has shrunk significantly.
Avoid using high heat settings for washing or drying. High temperatures can cause cotton to shrink. Always refer to the care label for recommended washing temperatures.
