How to tell if there is decoration pollution?

For the current home decoration, the main problem that everyone is worried about is decoration pollution, all kinds of diseases caused by decoration pollution are seen on the Internet, formaldehyde, benzene and other harmful substances will bring harm to the body, so that consumers can not prevent it. Let's take a look with the "Future Home Improvement Network" to see how to judge whether there is decoration pollution?

1. Pollution**.

The pollution in decoration mainly includes basic building materials and furniture, among which the use of latex paint, various glues, inferior flooring and inferior wood furniture bear the brunt.

Many friends think that solid wood furniture should be environmentally friendly products due to its low paint content due to the lack of glue, but in fact this is not the case. Some unscrupulous businesses take advantage of consumers' perception of solid wood furniture to say that "solid wood MDF" and "solid wood particle board" are solid wood, but MDF is made of sawdust or broken wood with a large amount of formaldehyde glue, and particle board is commonly known as particleboard, which is made of shavings materials and adhesives. Furniture made of these panels containing a lot of formaldehyde is not a real solid wood product, and there are great safety risks.

Latex paint is used in decoration area, most of the walls will be used, if you choose inferior latex glue, will produce a large number of formaldehyde and other harmful substances, affecting the health of the family.

In addition, floors, wallpapers, and even curtains may have excessive formaldehyde and other harmful substances, so you should pay special attention when purchasing.

2. How to judge.

With the improvement of people's requirements for the home environment, environmental awareness has made a healthy home environment the focus of people's concern. How to tell if there is decoration pollution in the renovated new home? Some experts have summarized and summarized several possible manifestations of decoration pollution.

After moving into a new home, you wake up every morning feeling stuffy, nauseous, and even lightheaded. When you buy new furniture in your home, you can have an unpleasant smell that can be unbearable and cause physical ailments. I don't usually smoke, but after moving into a new home, I often feel uncomfortable in my throat, a foreign body sensation, and I can't breathe well.

Children often cough, sneeze, and have weakened immunity. If the above symptoms appear, you should suspect whether there is decoration pollution in your home, and you should seek medical attention as soon as possible to find out the cause.

There are many people who mistakenly think that there is no pungent smell in the new house, which means that formaldehyde has been cleaned up, and there is no problem of decoration pollution, in fact, you can do a formaldehyde test in this uncertain situation to verify whether the formaldehyde exceeds the standard, once the formaldehyde exceeds the standard, it is necessary to do a good job in removing aldehyde.

1. Opening windows for ventilation may be the easiest and fastest way to remove formaldehyde, but the most important premise of ventilation to remove formaldehyde is to maintain ventilation. For example, in summer and winter, when the air conditioner is turned on, the doors and windows are closed or there is no wind outside, the effect of removing formaldehyde cannot be achieved.

2. Green plants, aloe vera, cactus, pothos and other plants have a certain absorption capacity for formaldehyde, and can slowly consume the surrounding formaldehyde through photosynthesis. Because it is a plant, it is very safe and does not produce other harmful effects. However, it should be noted that the absorption of formaldehyde by plants is limited and can only be used as one of the comprehensive treatment methods to remove formaldehyde.

3. Ye Guang mud material. This is currently a more popular aldehyde removal product, it is a natural ore, in its interior has a large number of rules, and the size of formaldehyde similar to the pores, its adsorption capacity is more than 20 times that of activated carbon, and at the same time has the function of ion exchange, can be adsorbed formaldehyde for long-term effectiveness.

4. Photophyllin. It can control the pollutants produced by interior decoration through catalysis and decomposition, and can decompose formaldehyde, benzene, TVOC into carbon dioxide and water and other harmless substances, and can effectively penetrate and capture the formaldehyde inside the board, which can truly achieve circular decomposition and long-term effectiveness.

We hope you all have a smooth transition to your new home!

The source to avoid is to choose environmentally friendly materials before decoration, and the most important of this kind of materials is furniture.

1. If you are buying finished furniture, try to choose solid wood furniture, or sample purchase, this kind of material has no formaldehyde, and even if there is one, it will be placed for a long time, and it will have been distributed long ago.

2. For sofa curtains, try not to be too bright in color, and the curtain fabric sofa cover can be soaked in salt water and then washed, which can greatly reduce the impact of formaldehyde and taste.

3. Use latex paint on the wall as much as possible, and the melamine can be white, and the pollution is relatively less.

4. Try to choose marble in the ground living room, choose solid wood board for wood flooring in the bedroom, and choose a strong version as much as possible, and try to choose a big brand.

These can be done, and after the decoration is completed, there is a small amount of formaldehyde.

1. For newly bought furniture, you can use photophyll to spray it again as a whole to directly decompose formaldehyde from the root.

2. Keep ventilation in the later stage, and you can also put some leaf wide mud materials to strengthen it for long-term adsorption and decomposition.

In this way, the harm of formaldehyde can be well avoided.

After all the decoration projects are over, it is necessary to dry for a period of time, and the harmful substances in the various building materials and furniture in the home are discharged, and the pollution needs to be tested before moving in, and the test can only be officially moved in after passing the test, otherwise it will cause great harm to the body.

1. What pollution needs to be tested after decoration?

According to the "Indoor Air Quality Code" GB T18883-2002 specification, it is advocated that only six items should be inspected for personal residences: formaldehyde, benzene, total volatile organic compounds (TVOC), toluene, xylene, and ammonia.

1. Formaldehyde. Formaldehyde has a strong odor. Artificial panels use adhesives and contain formaldehyde.

After inhaling high concentrations of formaldehyde, it will have a serious impact on the respiratory tract. **Direct contact with formaldehyde can cause dermatitis. Frequent inhalation of small amounts of formaldehyde can cause slow poisoning.

2. VOC volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are mainly used in coatings, adhesives, etc. VOCs can cause symptoms such as dizziness, headache, drowsiness, weakness, and chest tightness.

3. Radon. Radon is a radioactive noble gas that is colorless and odorless. Exists in cement, sand and gravel. Indoor pollutant radon pollution is second only to smoking and the second leading cause of lung cancer.

4. Ammonia. Ammonia is very soluble in water, and has a fast effect on the eyes and larynx, upper respiratory tract, and strong impact. Prolonged exposure to low concentrations of ammonia can cause laryngitis, hoarseness, and pulmonary edema.

5. Benzene. Benzene is a colorless liquid with a peculiar aromatic odor. Prolonged inhalation of benzene can lead to aplastic anemia.

2. What are the detection methods for decoration pollution?

1. Choose a professional testing company.

How to detect indoor formaldehyde: Generally, individuals cannot directly detect formaldehyde, this invisible and intangible thing can only be detected by scientific methods, choose an authoritative and professional formaldehyde testing company, and put the health of yourself and your family in the first place.

2. The reaction of animal and plant gods is obvious.

Animals and plants live in the same space as people, at this time, it depends on how the animals and plants react, if the animals in the new home after the decline of activity, disease, plant death, yellowing, etc., indicating that the environmental protection indicators of the new home are not qualified, pollution may endanger human health.

3. Precise physicochemical methods.

Physical and chemical testing method, this method is precise, and the general third-party testing company uses this method, and ordinary families are not able to use it. The detection methods mainly include: phenol reagent spectrophotometry, gas chromatography, electrochemistry, sensor method, etc.

The above is all about what pollution needs to be tested after decoration, what are the decoration pollution detection methods, I hope it can help you understand decoration pollution detection, more decoration knowledge, decoration company evaluation, decoration cases, please continue to pay attention!

The first step to detect decoration pollution: you can use some professional formaldehyde testing instruments or something, or you can use formaldehyde test boxes, which is simple and convenient. High temperature and high humidity will touch the volatilization of formaldehyde, so it is more convenient to remove formaldehyde, because the volatilization period of formaldehyde has three to fifteen times, if you don't live in it, you can ventilate without anything, some green plants will have some allergies, ** is quite cheap, and green plants are also very beautiful at home.

The second step of detecting decoration pollution: even if there is professional testing equipment, it may not be able to effectively detect whether formaldehyde exceeds the standard, because it is necessary to have professional technicians and institutions certified by the national metrology department to engage in indoor air quality testing. Therefore, without professional testing equipment, it is definitely impossible to detect air quality.

The third step to detect decoration pollution: there is a lingering odor in the room, a pungent smell, dizziness, nausea and other symptoms will occur for a long time, as well as frequent sneezing, itchy eyes, headaches and other symptoms, accompanied by nosebleeds, etc., you can preliminarily judge that the formaldehyde at home is exceeded.
