As we all know, there will inevitably be an unpleasant smell after decoration. We call it the "decoration taste". Many people think that it is enough to ventilate and dissipate the smell. In fact, that's not the case. Although the root cause of the "decoration smell" is that pollutants exceed the standard, not all pollutants can be smelled. For example, formaldehyde can actually be recognized by our sense of smell only when it exceeds the standard 3-4 times.
Although formaldehyde is invisible and intangible, its harm is real and has been established as a type of carcinogen by World Health Organization . Formaldehyde not only destroys our immune system, but also destroys our hematopoietic system, thereby inducing various diseases, especially childhood leukemia! According to clinical data, 90% of children with leukemia have been renovated recently, and the formaldehyde exceeds the standard to varying degrees! So what sources of formaldehyde emission are there in our homes?
Fabrics with too bright colors: Generally speaking, in order to achieve anti-wrinkle, anti-shrinkage, flame retardant and other effects, or to maintain the durability of printing and dyeing, or to make the colors more bright and enhance the feel, a large amount of formaldehyde will be added. Therefore, the brighter the color of cloth products, the higher the formaldehyde content. When we use it, we should wash and dry more in a well-ventilated place.
wall decoration with pungent smell: wallpaper and wall paint are the most commonly used wall decoration . It is recommended that you do not choose wall decoration with pungent smell. The reason is that glue is indispensable in these wall decorations, and the greater the smell it emits, the greater the pollution, and it is easier to aggravate the degree of indoor pollution.
inferior wooden boards: Decoration is indispensable for the use of boards, but it is recommended that you do not choose inferior boards such as density board , plywood board , etc. Because these boards will add a lot of glue when making them. As the saying goes, no aldehyde can form glue, and glue is made of formaldehyde as the raw material. Therefore, these boards can evaporate a large amount of formaldehyde and cause pollution.
If you want to solve the pollution problem, you should pay attention to using less polluted materials when decorating, and secondly, you should also pay attention to the treatment method. Start from the source and choose environmentally friendly materials. Whether it is cabinet boards or floor coatings, it is best to choose environmentally friendly materials to reduce the release of formaldehyde from the source and reduce the difficulty of later treatment. Of course, formaldehyde is a pollutant with a very long volatile period, so we need continuous treatment. For example, the German Seiko Northenberg air purifier decomposes formaldehyde into carbon dioxide and water while adsorbing formaldehyde, and uses it as soon as possible to continuously ensure our healthy breathing!
