Autumn decoration also has "sequelae" need to recognize several major sources of pollution

The coolness of autumn began to deepen, but the decoration was "hot". Experienced people all know that there are many benefits in the autumn decoration, such as dry weather, wood boards are not easy to return moisture, paint, paint, etc., but there are also some unique decoration sequelae.

As people's requirements for the living environment become higher and higher, decoration has become a top priority in life, and the decoration pollution brought by it has become a concern. In recent years, there have been numerous cases of various types of diseases caused by decoration pollution. However, it is also said that pollution does not necessarily cause diseases. At the same time, the medical community did not draw a clear equivalence between decoration pollution and disease. However, many experts say that the cause of the disease may contain many factors. However, decoration pollution is at least the culprit of causing various diseases and must not be ignored.

Although the accumulation of various sources of pollution in the renovation will cause some harm to our bodies, can we not just buy a house without decoration? Does decoration mean pollution? How can the decoration pollution be reduced? ― During the renovation season in 2010, except for your excitement, you must remember to improve the environmental protection!

Recognize the major sources of pollution in decoration

For pollution, related experts said that many decorative materials contain formaldehyde, benzene and other organic substances, so a small amount of pollution in the decoration is unavoidable. However, as long as the source of pollution is correctly understood, environmental protection materials are mainly used in decoration, and pile-up is reduced. If problems are found and problems are solved in a timely manner, decoration pollution can be effectively controlled and the probability of illness can be reduced. According to statistics from experts, there are many causes of indoor environmental pollution, among which decoration pollution caused by interior decoration materials and furniture accounts for a large proportion. Interior paint, plywood, particleboard, interior wall paint, etc. contain formaldehyde, benzene and other harmful substances. Once these materials enter the living room, more than 30 diseases including respiratory tract, digestive tract, neurology, vision, vision, and hypertension will be triggered. In addition, the release period of these harmful gases in the interior is also relatively long; furniture is a necessity in our lives and an important part of interior decoration. However, when we buy, we often overlook the importance of the price, style, and workmanship of the furniture. We have ignored whether the panels and accessories used to make furniture are environmentally friendly and can guarantee our health and safety.

Furniture: Formaldehyde can be said to be the most important pollutant in furniture. The materials, paints, and adhesives used in all kinds of furniture contain a certain amount of formaldehyde, and long-term effects on the human body can cause many adverse reactions. For example, it has a strong stimulatory effect on the human eye and respiratory system; it is a potential threat to cancer, fetal malformation, and the like.

Although formaldehyde is indeed a harmful substance, relevant experts also stated that we must correctly understand formaldehyde and do not blindly fear it. In fact, formaldehyde is everywhere in our lives, but as long as it does not reach a certain amount, it is harmless to the human body. Therefore, first, avoid stacking. In an equal-sized space, there must be a difference in the environmental protection coefficient for one or two pieces of furniture and a lot of furniture. Even if the formaldehyde content of each piece of furniture is up to the standard, the total amount of furniture will become excessive. Therefore, we must know how to properly leave blank; Second, pay attention to humidity and temperature. The speed of the distribution of harmful substances on furniture and the temperature and humidity have a great relationship, if adjusted well, harmful substances will soon be dispersed; Third, ventilation. Ventilation issues cannot be ignored. Both fresh air and wind can slow down indoor pollution. If air is not circulated and ventilation is not done, even if the individual formaldehyde content is less, a long time will cause problems due to the inability to discharge properly.

Luo Yu, head of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Quality Supervision and Inspection of Wood Furniture, said in an interview that according to the results of current furniture testing in Beijing, about 80%-90% of the formaldehyde content of the furniture is up to standard and it is a qualified product. However, due to the pollution of furniture caused by air pollution, in addition to materials, but also with the temperature, humidity, furniture, ventilation and many other factors. Therefore, the proportion of furniture pollution still depends on the situation of each family and cannot be generalized. However, at least in the past, the problem of over-standard urea-formaldehyde resin formaldehyde content in large core boards has been greatly improved.

Floor: Due to the strong adhesion of formaldehyde, it also has the function of strengthening the hardness of the plate and preventing insects and corrosion. It is very suitable for floor use. Therefore, the pollutants in the floor are mainly formaldehyde. But Gao Zhihua, a floor expert, said that compared to other decorative materials, the floor's pollution to the indoor environment is still very small. There are some formaldehyde-free materials on the market today, mostly because they do not use urea-formaldehyde glue instead of starch glue. Although these products have met the standards of chemical quality and have little harm to the human body, they have reduced the adhesion due to avoiding the use of formaldehyde-containing glue, and the quality of the product has also dropped. Consumers must pay attention to this point at the time of purchase. Do not blindly pursue the pursuit of formaldehyde-free. In fact, the harm of formaldehyde to human body is still very small. In addition, there are still some "zero formaldehyde" products. In fact, this is not possible. Therefore, it is best to ask clearly at the time of purchase. The meaning of the so-called “Zero Formaldehyde” is, in the end, completely free of formaldehyde or formaldehyde content within the scope of harmlessness, and should not be controlled by the propaganda methods of the business.

Wall decoration materials: Most of the wall decoration materials such as paints, thinners, and various types of waterproof materials contain a certain amount of pollutants. For example: benzene, free formaldehyde, VOC (volatile organic compounds), etc. For waterborne coatings, the differences between waterborne and latex paints are significantly different. In terms of overall performance, latex paint is superior to water-based paint. It consists essentially of water, pigments, emulsions, etc. These raw materials are not toxic, and it may be toxic in the film-forming agent of ethylene glycol and Anti-mould agent in organic mercury. Therefore, the quality of latex paint is basically safe to use.

Do not blindly fear rationality to avoid decoration pollution

There is no certainty between decoration pollution and illness. Li Lizhi, a medical expert, said that after investigating and researching various types of cases, it was proved that the decoration pollution has a certain impact on human health, and it may also be the cause of diseases such as leukemia, cancer, asthma, and fetal malformation. However, because many diseases are caused by many factors, in addition to the external causes, there is a great relationship with the patient's own genetic and physical conditions. From the decoration pollution point of view, the formaldehyde content in human blood is likely to exceed the standard due to excessive formaldehyde levels, but this phenomenon is generally instantaneous. It harms your body and causes other diseases. It is very likely that it has been metabolized. Therefore, it is difficult to find out exactly after the illness.

Although pollution problems exist, consumers do not need to panic. As long as you follow the methods proposed by professionals, carry out green decoration and safety decoration; afterwards, discover problems and timely governance; usually more ventilation and more exercise, then the consequences of decoration pollution will be minimized. In particular, to remind pregnant women during the pregnancy is best not to touch the decoration, but also try not to go to the room being renovated, so as not to adversely affect the fetus; the elderly due to lower resistance, do not touch too much decoration, and after the renovation, Pay attention to ventilation, and wait until most of the pollutants are released before they can stay. Background of the incident: Recently, the newspaper got the news that two children in Tongzhou had leukemia and brain cancer, respectively. Coincidentally, the two children's families were renovated before they were born and lived in new homes before and after the children were born. The doctors at the hospital indicated that the hospital had conducted a detailed inquiry into the living conditions of the parents of the sick children and had conducted a thorough examination of the patients. After that, it was thought that the decoration pollution was very likely to be an important factor in inducing diseases.
