Which is better and more environmentally friendly, wallpaper or latex paint?
Latex paint is very environmentally friendly in coatings. But compared with wallpaper, I personally think wallpaper is more environmentally friendly. Buy the glue for wallpaper in advance, not the glue sent by the merchant. You must have sent it badly. Let's look at wallpaper and latex paint from the perspective of environmental protection! From the perspective of environmental protection, compared with other interior decoration materials, wallpaper has the lowest side effects on human health. However, wallpaper is wallpaper, a raw material and a single product. Don't forget, wallpaper is paved with varnish and wallpaper glue, and then wallpaper is paved. At this time, the shape of wallpaper has changed a lot. After the wallpaper is pasted, the wallpaper glue is covered inside, and formaldehyde is difficult to volatilize, so the release cycle of formaldehyde is much longer than that of wall paint. Wall paint also contains formaldehyde, but the construction process is less than wallpaper. Comparatively speaking, after normal latex paint is painted, it almost evaporates in three days, and it has no taste in 15 days. But there is another pollution in wall paint, that is, mercury and lead. After the wall is painted, it is easy for children to touch it with their hands, and some children will habitually suck their fingers, so that mercury and lead in the paint will have an impact on their bodies. Developed countries such as Europe and America also used paint as the first choice for interior decoration as early as the forties and fifties, but it is basically not used now. In fact, as can be seen from the above, both wallpaper and wall paint have their own environmental protection problems. So, on the one hand, I don't suggest you spread wallpaper everywhere; On the other hand, we also have a good reason to choose wallpaper. After all, the effect created by wallpaper can't be achieved by wall paint. The environmental protection mentioned here is only relatively environmentally friendly, not to say that it does not contain any formaldehyde.
