In recent years, cancer, leukemia and other diseases have occurred frequently, and whenever I see such reports on news TV, I feel very sad, and the spearhead is pointed at decoration pollution.
This makes many owners of new house decoration panic!
After Mr. Lin's new house was ventilated and dried for more than half a year, the couple moved into the new house with their 4-year-old daughter. Only one month after moving into the new house, Mr. Lin's daughter suddenly developed symptoms such as persistent high fever and cough, and was diagnosed with acute leukemia by the hospital, and her 4-year-old daughter died due to ineffective treatment.
After his daughter was diagnosed with acute leukemia, Mr. Lin commissioned the municipal environmental monitoring station to monitor the air in the master bedroom of the new house, and according to the monitoring report, the formaldehyde content was 0.39mg per cubic meter, which exceeded the prescribed standard by 4 times.
Formaldehyde is the main cause of neonatal malformations, childhood leukemia, adolescent memory and intelligence decline, and is identified by the WHO (World Health Organization) as a "carcinogenic and teratogenic substance" Long-term exposure to low-dose formaldehyde can cause chronic poisoning, causing diseases of the respiratory system, nervous system, reproductive system and other diseases.
Formaldehyde is also a bully of the soft and afraid of the hard guy, its main harm object is the elderly and children who have no resistance, of course, pregnant women are also the object of its injury, China every year because of the harm of formaldehyde and suffer from leukemia or miscarriage of pregnant women, as well as because of formaldehyde caused by respiratory diseases and cancer there are hundreds of thousands.
Families with these pollution sources at home have a worse chance of getting sick, and it is recommended that parents throw them away quickly, which not only endangers their children's health, but also damages their own health!
The odor threshold of formaldehyde, that is, the lowest concentration that people can smell is 0.05~0.5 mg/m³, and the general odor or aroma concentration reaches 0.001mg/m³, which can be smelled by the human nose, and the olfactory threshold of formaldehyde exceeds the olfactory threshold of other odors by at least 60 times.
To put it simply: the formaldehyde concentration at home may have exceeded the standard, but we can't smell it. In another case, the pungent smell is not necessarily formaldehyde, but may be another gas.
- If the following symptoms appear, it means that the indoor formaldehyde exceeds the standard! Don't take it seriously
Situation 1: The smell of the new house is very high
Formaldehyde is colorless and odorless, and the odor of new houses is generally benzene series, TOVC, etc. According to more than 10 years of work experience of experts, benzene series and TOVC exceed the standard, and formaldehyde is likely to exceed the standard.
At this time, several pollutants exceed the standard together, and the situation is very critical and needs to be treated in time.
Scenario 2: Adverse reactions occur in the body
If formaldehyde exceeds the standard, our body will have sore throat, uncomfortable eyes and other reactions, especially the elderly and children at home, these weak people can be easily attacked by formaldehyde, and sometimes the skin will also appear small red spots, at this time we need to treat quickly to remove formaldehyde for the new house.
Situation 3: The plant inexplicably turns yellow and wilts, or even dies
Some plants are able to absorb formaldehyde from the air through respiration and then break it down using biological enzymes in their roots. However, after absorption to the extent that formaldehyde cannot be degraded, the plant will be poisoned by formaldehyde, yellow, wilt, and even die.
Therefore, if this situation occurs in your plants, it is likely to be caused by excessive formaldehyde, and you must detect the formaldehyde content at home in time.
Situation 4: Eyes are often dry and watery
In fact, our eyes also have a clear perception of formaldehyde, after all, formaldehyde is a harmful gas, so when detecting formaldehyde at home, you can't just smell it by your nose.
When the pollution of formaldehyde is relatively high, there will be a lot of irritation to our eyes, which will make it dry and tearful!
Many people think that formaldehyde is far away from us, but in fact, as an expert environmental expert pointed out: a few inconspicuous things in the house are formaldehyde households, and you must be careful when buying and using.
"Formaldehyde big households" were exposed: "these three" don't buy them at home!
1. Mattress
There are many types of mattresses, among which palm pads have a lot of formaldehyde.
The palm mat is made of coconut palm, because the coconut palm is very soft and has weak support, so a large amount of glue needs to be used in the production process to set the shape, and it will contain a lot of formaldehyde, especially some cheap palm mats, not to mention the formaldehyde content. In addition, the pores on its surface are very sparse, so it is easier for formaldehyde to be released.
Therefore, if when buying a palm mat, the feeling of breaking it by hand is very hard and there is glue residue, you can basically determine that it is a glue mat.
2. Wallpapers
Everyone not only requires safety and comfort in the living environment, but also artistic beauty has gradually become a trendy pursuit. This makes wallpaper begin to enter the lives of thousands of households.
Many people think that the wallpaper on their walls is not only cheaper than tiles, but can also be changed at will. But you should understand that if you accidentally choose cheap and low-quality wallpaper, then the danger is great.
Although many wallpaper processes are constantly improving and improving, inferior wallpaper still exists. When inferior wallpaper is glued, the harmful substances produced are not only formaldehyde, but also benzene.
3. Resin tableware imitating ceramics
Many families choose imitation ceramic kitchenware to avoid being broken. However, some merchants will choose inferior and toxic formaldehyde resin in order to reduce the cost of products.
This substance may release formaldehyde when it comes into contact with hot or relatively hot food. Formaldehyde can also leach into food and pose a health threat to people.
In fact, the best way to deal with formaldehyde is to solve it from the source, with scientific and safe formaldehyde scavengers, so that the formaldehyde problem can be well solved.
Formaldehyde removal is not a project that can be completed in a short period of time, the formaldehyde emission time is generally 3-6 months, it is necessary for us to continue to remove formaldehyde, the following Xiaobian will share with you a few effective formaldehyde removal products, the first of which is Xiaobian himself used one, the effect is very good.
1: Olvway formaldehyde scavenger:
Allova formaldehyde scavenger adopts a new "amino acid + photocatalyst" formaldehyde removal technology, which combines the characteristics of physical removal and chemical decomposition, and provides an innovative solution for the rapid and efficient degradation of formaldehyde molecules. The core is the fusion of amino acid technology and photocatalyst technology, which reacts with air to produce carbon dioxide and water, and does not produce harmful components to the human body. Through adsorption and chelation, amino acid technology effectively adsorbs and fixes harmful gas atoms and molecules such as formaldehyde on the surface of the material, improves the degradation and removal efficiency, avoids its re-release into the indoor air, and ensures the improvement of indoor air quality.
Olvway Formaldehyde Scavenger: The ingredients are safe and reliable, free of oxidants, alcohol and fragrance, and very safe for home use. Tested by professional testing institutions, the efficiency of this product to remove formaldehyde is as high as 91%, which is a favorable player for removing formaldehyde.
2: Activated carbon:
Activated carbon itself has a certain effect on the adsorption of harmful substances and volatile harmful gases, so it can be used to effectively adsorb formaldehyde, especially in the newly renovated indoor environment or in the case of excessive formaldehyde, it is an effective choice.
Three: Yiya formaldehyde deep scavenger: The composition of this formaldehyde scavenger is mild, which effectively improves the free state and the formaldehyde inside the plate, and the decomposition products are pollution-free.
