When it comes to formaldehyde, everyone is frightened, what formaldehyde causes cancer, formaldehyde for leukemia and other news emerge in endlessly. However, big data shows that the number of people suffering from leukemia due to home renovation pollution in China has been crazy in recent years, and has now reached one million, especially children. Therefore, after the renovation of the new house, everyone will choose to leave it for a few months before moving in, and some families need to move in immediately, and they are also trembling. Let's talk about formaldehyde.
Formaldehyde hazards.
Formaldehyde is a toxic gas with a pungent odor that can be smelled at low concentrations, which can cause headaches, dizziness, fatigue, sensory impairment, decreased immunity, drowsiness, memory loss or neurasthenia, and mental depression.
Formaldehyde is the hardest hit area.
One is all kinds of glueGlue is mainly found in man-made boards, mattresses, wallpaper, putty powder. For example, a lot of glue will be used in wood processing, and these glues will continue to decompose and release formaldehyde.
The pasting of wallpaper also requires glue, and the use of a large amount of glue will inevitably produce excessive formaldehyde. Although glutinous rice glue is now used for pasting wallpaper or wall cloth, it is more environmentally friendly. However, it is still necessary to pay attention to the superimposed hazards caused by the large number of environmentally friendly materials used indoors. 
The second is textiles
Textiles mainly include wall coverings, wallpaper, chemical fiber carpets, curtains, bedding, etc. For example, we often say that there is formaldehyde in clothes, you may not understand why formaldehyde should be added to textiles, in fact, formaldehyde can increase waterproofness, wrinkle resistance and fire resistance. We wash this kind of product with water, which can eliminate about 70% of formaldehyde.
If we want to remove formaldehyde at the source, we must choose products that meet national specifications. If you have the financial ability, it is best to chooseWhole blockSolid wood furniture, adhesives and coatings made of logs should also choose good environmental performance, if you can't distinguish them, buy products with good brands.
Long-term exposure to low concentrations of formaldehyde can also cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, sensory impairment, decreased immunity, drowsiness, memory loss, or mental weakness and depression. High concentrations of formaldehyde can also cause serious damage to internal organs and even lead to cancer. Living in a formaldehyde vapor environment for a long time will also cause great damage to the five organs of the human body.
At present, although we have realized the serious consequences of formaldehyde hazards, we have reached a consensus that we cannot move in directly after renovation. However, there are many wrong ideas about removing formaldehyde:
1. Odorless equals no formaldehyde.
After a period of natural ventilation, some families think that there is no formaldehyde in the home because there is no smell in the home. In fact, in the case of formaldehyde composition or exceedance, we should keep in mind that some formaldehyde will be covered by other odors. After all, formaldehyde is very difficult to volatilize and can even stay in the room for 3-15 years.
2. Light ventilation.
Formaldehyde volatilizes very slowly, up to 3 to 15 years. It is impossible to completely remove it after just a few months of ventilation.
3. Put green plants.
Also, put some extra peels, such as orange peels, or even white rice vinegar. In fact, this method can only help mask temporary odors. This method has a certain effect on the taste, but the aldehyde removal effect is almost zero! A large number of green plants have a decorative effect and basically have no practical effect on removing formaldehyde!
How to remove formaldehyde is reliable.
Before moving into the newly renovated house, it is best to find a formal testing company to test the formaldehyde concentration, if the value exceeds the standard, you should ask a professional management company to carry out scientific and comprehensive prevention and control management, so as to give yourself and your family a safe living environment.
