I believe that many people will be troubled by this problem, that is, after the decoration of a new home, there will be formaldehyde pollution. There are all kinds of pungent smells in the room.
There are many products and services on the market that remove formaldehyde , but so far none of them have been scientifically proven to be effective. The only effective method is ventilation.
1. Reasonable ventilation also requires
For formaldehyde to evaporate effectively, there are certain environmental conditions. The temperature needs to reach above 19 degrees Celsius before it can volatilize normally. And the higher the temperature, the faster it evaporates.
In order to speed up air circulation, some residents also open windows in winter to allow air convection . This is not only detrimental to the volatilization of formaldehyde, but will also make the new decoration too dry and cracked.
Therefore, we can appropriately adjust and open the windows according to the temperature and humidity for ventilation.
2. Adjust the ambient humidity
Formaldehyde is a gas soluble in water. Higher humidity can better take away formaldehyde.
If the weather is very dry, we can install a humidifier indoors. Or mop the floor every day to artificially increase the humidity.
Then, curtains and bedding can also be washed and dried frequently.
3. Choose the decoration time in a planned way
In terms of decoration time, we can choose a season with warmer weather, such as spring and summer. But if it is decorated in winter, we can use air conditioning, heating, etc. to increase the temperature.
4. You can also put some auxiliary supplies
There are many formaldehyde removal products on the market. Although the effect is not as good as ventilation, with the above methods, the formaldehyde removal effect can be accelerated.
. Green plants. Green plants have a purifying effect on the air, so they also have a certain auxiliary effect on the removal of formaldehyde. You can put some in before moving in.
2. Activated carbon. Activated carbon has a strong adsorption capacity. It can absorb formaldehyde volatilized in the air and also has a certain auxiliary effect.
3, ozone generator , the ozone generator can produce ozone to decompose formaldehyde. If it is a newly renovated house and you are in a hurry to live in it, you can use this method for three hours a day for a month to effectively reduce the formaldehyde content.
4, photocatalyst purifier, which is a nano titanium dioxide material with photocatalytic function. It can produce degradation function when exposed to light and can decompose formaldehyde.
Formaldehyde can volatilize for five to more than ten years. Floors and furniture contain formaldehyde. It is unrealistic to remove formaldehyde in a short time. Therefore, we can only continue to reduce the formaldehyde content and open windows for ventilation.
