Generally speaking, a newly renovated house will not be moved in immediately, because it needs ventilation and odor elimination, and it will take three months at the earliest. As we all know, there will be serious formaldehyde pollution in the decoration process, especially in some decoration materials, which will always endanger our physical and mental health, so some owners will question, which decoration materials will have formaldehyde? Let's take a look with Bian Xiao, hoping to provide some help for your new house.
Which decoration materials will have formaldehyde?
1, all kinds of wood-based panels
This kind of products are the main source of harmful gases in the whole room, especially some boards containing urea-formaldehyde resin glue, which will release formaldehyde from the beginning of production to the end use, and this cycle will last for 15 years at the longest.
2. Equipment
Although this kind of articles is relatively environmentally friendly in the whole room, it can't rule out the release of harmful gases, especially some panel furniture, whose formaldehyde release can't be ignored. Therefore, it is best to leave the furniture for a period of time before entering the room and let it volatilize some free formaldehyde.
3, paint, coating and other decorative materials
I believe that the public are familiar with this material, and it is also an essential item in the whole construction process. However, in the production of such products, formaldehyde additives will be added to improve their performance, so paints and coatings are also one of the sources of indoor formaldehyde pollution.
4. Textiles
This harmful gas is widely used in textile production because it can improve the function of textiles, enhance wrinkle resistance and water resistance, so textiles not only emit formaldehyde, but also adsorb free formaldehyde, so textiles are also one of indoor formaldehyde pollution sources.
What are the hazards of formaldehyde to human health?
1 stimulation
It has a very strong stimulating effect on skin and mucosa. As we all know, this harmful gas belongs to protoplasm toxic medium and can combine with protein. When inhaled in high concentration, the respiratory tract will be severely stimulated and edema, and it will also cause eye irritation and headache.
2. Sensitization
If you often absorb a small amount of harmful gases, it will lead to chronic physical and mental poisoning, and it will also cause various skin diseases. In addition, long-term exposure to low-dose formaldehyde will cause chronic respiratory diseases, leading to gene mutations such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma, colon cancer and brain tumor, which will terminate pregnancy for pregnant women and reduce memory and intelligence for adolescents.
