Choose low-toxic paints and coatings

The toxicity of paints and paints is mainly reflected in some products containing formaldehyde, benzene and other carcinogenic substances and lead, mercury, cadmium and other harmful substances that can endanger human health.

1. If you want to avoid the harm of formaldehyde, just select the regular manufacturer's products and those products with environmental protection signs can basically be.

Formaldehyde mainly causes harm to the respiratory system and has been recognized as a suspected carcinogen by the World Health Organization.

It is mainly released from the blockboard, and there are also a small amount of paint and paint. In general, poor quality paints and coatings contain more formaldehyde, and the regular manufacturers' products, as long as they are released through ventilation for a certain period of time, do not exceed the specified formaldehyde levels. The Beijing Institute of Labor Protection had conducted tests on the most commonly used nitrocellulose varnishes in 13 kinds of home improvement products. The results showed that the amount of formaldehyde released was greatest after 1 hour of brushing, and it was still released on the 15th day, but the value was very high. small. The examination of 16 kinds of latex paints showed that formaldehyde was generally contained in the air within 1 hour of brushing, but after 3 days, it could not be detected, and no harm was caused to human health.

2. To reduce the harm of benzene, it is best to choose environmentally friendly water-based paint, and use less paint.

The benzene and benzene series have also been identified as carcinogenic by the World Health Organization. It is the most dangerous of the several poison gases produced by the decoration.

People inhale high concentrations of toluene and xylene in a short period of time. Symptoms of central nervous system anesthesia can occur. Light people are dizzy, have headaches, nausea, chest tightness, fatigue, and confusion. Severe coma causes death due to respiratory failure. Benzene is mainly irritating to the skin, eyes and upper respiratory tract. Often exposed to benzene, the skin may become dry due to defatting and some may develop allergic eczema. People who have been exposed to benzene mixtures for a long period of time have a higher incidence of aplastic anemia and can cause leukemia. Inhalation of large quantities of toluene by pregnant women can cause defects such as fetal infant malformations, dysfunction of the central nervous system, and retarded growth. Benzene is a colorless liquid with a special aromatic odor, so it is called 'Aromatic Killer'. Benzene mainly comes from paints, paints and various organic solvents. Indoor paints are mainly divided into water-based paints and solvent-based paints. Contamination is mainly caused by solvent-based paints, and the use of environmentally friendly water-based coatings can completely eliminate the concerns of paint pollution. In 2004, the European Union will ban the production and sale of solvent-based paints and use water-based paints. In addition, the chrome contained in the brightly colored paint is also high, and the amount of harmful substances such as mercury, lead, and cadmium is also high, and paint should be used as little as possible.

What needs to be reminded is that, in order to help consumers identify environmentally-friendly products, the Environmental Protection Certification Center of the State Environmental Protection Agency has launched a sign for China's environmental protection coatings, which are marked with a circular and green logo with the words “Chinese environmental label”. However, most of the products on the paint market that are marked with eco-labels are not credible, and many of the signs are counterfeit and difficult for consumers to discern. In this case, the easiest way is to use water-based paint, which generally guarantees environmental protection.
