Has anyone used diatom mud in home decoration?

Yes, diatom mud doesn't feel very good, it is easy to absorb dust, and it is also said that diatom mud removes formaldehyde. It's not scientific, because formaldehyde is a volatile gas, and diatom mud is not a vacuum cleaner. You can learn about it, negative ions, this I feel a little more reliable, suitable for coastal cities, rain, or back to the south of the sky, it feels like entering nature.

Rough house, or renovation of old house, should shovel off the old wall, use the interface agent roller coating, and then use trowel putty to smooth the wall, which is the basic, surface layer, there are gypsum putty powder, putty paste, diatom mud, texture putty, etc.

To say that diatom mud decoration wall, overall it is still very good, to know that the largest area in a house is the wall, the decoration of the wall is very important, the most commonly used wall decoration material on the market is latex paint, so how to judge that diatom mud is suitable for their home?

1: The basic functions (characteristics) of diatom mud

The industry standard for diatom mud clearly stipulates its basic functions, stipulating that diatom mud needs to meet four points: usability, decoration, functionality and environmental protection.

1.Usability.

It must have a certain bond strength, therefore, the material must be added with an inorganic cementitious substance. It has a certain temperature and humidity resistance, which mainly ensures that the diatom mud will not age and despinal due to periodic temperature and humidity changes in the actual environment after being installed on the wall.

2.Decorative.

The color of diatom mud is mainly achieved by adding natural inorganic pigments, while its texture patterns can be made with various tools and techniques. Rod ooze is highly malleable and can produce a variety of textured effects.

3.Functionality.

1) Hygroscopicity: WA(1x10-3KG m2) hygroscopic WA20 for 3H; hygroscopic wa 27 for 6h; 12h hygroscopic wa 35;24h hygroscopic wa 40

2) Emission: WB (1 10-3 kg sqm) 24h discharge WB WA 70s product moisture content, kg cubic meter) average volume moisture content (kg cubic meter) 8

3) Formaldehyde purification capacity: purification performance 80, durability 60

4) Anti-mildew: anti-mildew performance level 0, anti-mildew resistance and durability level 1

4.Eco-friendliness.

1) Diatom mud itself does not contain harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene, but after adding other substances to make diatom mud seep, environmental protection may not necessarily meet the standard.

2) Standard: volatile organic compound content<1g kg; The sum of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene is less than 50 mg kg; free formaldehyde 5 mg kg; Soluble heavy metals< 10 mg kg.

Two: Diatoms refer to the shortcomings of wild chain mud.

1.It is difficult to deal with large stains.

Diatom mud should not be scrubbed with water after it has been stained with stains. It is generally recommended to use an eraser. However, if you have a large area of stains, it can be difficult to deal with. Even the eraser can ruin the texture pattern and affect the aesthetics.

2.Not suitable for use in kitchens and bathrooms.

Bacterial slurry is highly absorbent and can be used to regulate indoor humidity, but water absorption does not mean that it is waterproof. Under the action of a large amount of water, bacillary mud can turn into mud, so it is not suitable for wet places such as kitchens and toilets.

3.**Relatively high.

The ** of diatom mud is relatively high. Generally speaking, it costs 3-400 yuan per square meter. For working families, it is better to choose a relatively inexpensive latex paint.
