Does "zero formaldehyde" really exist?
No, there is an article in Jinghua Times: "Is it really reliable that furniture does not contain formaldehyde?" , reproduced as follows: \ x0d \ x0d \ For the health of family members, the owners always put environmental protection first when decorating. Recently, furniture under the banner of "zero formaldehyde" began to appear on the market. Although it is much more expensive than ordinary furniture, it is still favored by the majority of owners. But can this furniture really achieve "zero formaldehyde"? This issue of Jinghua Jiayuan reporter will find out for you. \x0d\ \x0d\ Zero formaldehyde furniture appears in the market \x0d\ \x0d\ Recently, the customized wardrobe brand Haolaike and the straw board enterprise "Wanhua Hexiang Board" jointly launched the zero formaldehyde straw board wardrobe. This product claims to use zero formaldehyde board-a board made of recyclable plant fibers (such as rice and wheat straw, apple branches, etc.). ). In the processing technology, MDI ecological glue is used to replace the traditional urea-formaldehyde resin glue to realize zero formaldehyde release. The reporter learned in the market that in addition to Haolaike, there are other furniture and cabinet brands in the market that have also played the slogan of "zero formaldehyde", and their core technologies are the same as Haolaike. Moreover, the price of such products is often about 20% more expensive than ordinary furniture. \x0d\ \x0d\ \x0d\ Zero content is unscientific \x0d\ \x0d\ So, can this board really achieve zero formaldehyde? Luo _, director of Beijing Wood Furniture Quality Supervision and Inspection Station, said that straw fiberboard is different from ordinary wood-based panels. The straw fiberboard uses isocyanate glue, which is also called MDI ecological glue by merchants, and the ordinary man-made board uses aldehyde glue such as urea-formaldehyde resin. Aldehyde glue is formed by the reaction of formaldehyde and urea, which will spontaneously decompose and reduce under natural conditions and release free formaldehyde again, which is the fundamental reason for the continuous release of formaldehyde from wood-based panels, while isocyanate glue will not release formaldehyde. From this point of view, the formaldehyde emission of straw board is indeed lower than that of ordinary man-made board. However, Luo also pointed out that the amount of isocyanate glue used in rice straw board is 10 times higher than that used in ordinary wood-based panels, so the cost of rice straw board is much higher than that of ordinary wood-based panels. \ x0d \ x0d \ Wang Jun, an expert member of China Forest Products Industry Association and director of the Forest Products Inspection Center (Changchun) of the State Forestry Administration, pointed out that straw is a natural plant fiber, which also contains a very small amount of formaldehyde. It is unscientific to say that this kind of plate is completely "zero formaldehyde". For furniture, in addition to the substrate of the board, it is also necessary to cover, paint and seal the edges. In these processes, it is hard to say that formaldehyde-containing components will not be brought in, and it is almost impossible to achieve complete "zero formaldehyde". At most, it can only be said that it is close to zero formaldehyde. \ x0d \ x0d \ There is no need to talk about formaldehyde discoloration when buying \ x0d \ x0d \ Zero formaldehyde furniture can become a selling point in the market, and the fundamental reason comes from consumers' fear of formaldehyde. There are terrible news everywhere in life that formaldehyde can cause cancer and leukemia. For such rumors, Luo _ said that the hazards mentioned here are caused by excessive formaldehyde, as long as the formaldehyde emission in the board meets the national standard (E 1 grade: formaldehyde emission,
