Will formaldehyde evaporate faster in summer?

Many people are familiar with formaldehyde. It is well known that formaldehyde is very harmful to the human body. Therefore, under normal circumstances, a newly renovated house cannot be lived in directly. It needs to be ventilated for a period of time and wait for the formaldehyde to be eliminated before people can live in it. If the formaldehyde exceeds the standard seriously, it will not only cause cancer, but may also cause death. Be sure to remember to ventilate the house after decoration.

Professional formaldehyde removal

After renovating a new house, it is best to leave it alone for a while and not rush to move in. At the same time, ask a professional formaldehyde removal company to do a systematic and comprehensive formaldehyde removal work in all places indoors. Although formaldehyde removal also requires the use of some chemical substances, with the continuous improvement and development of formaldehyde removal technology, professional formaldehyde removal can be said to be a more effective way of formaldehyde removal to a certain extent.

Ventilation

Although ventilation cannot directly remove formaldehyde, it can alleviate the indoor formaldehyde content to a certain extent. Frequent opening of windows for ventilation can bring fresh air and sunlight from outdoors into the room, and sunlight itself has a certain bactericidal and disinfecting effect.

The most common way to remove formaldehyde by physical adsorption is to place some activated carbon in various places in the room. Because activated carbon itself has many tiny pores, it can absorb a lot of formaldehyde.

However, when using activated carbon, it should be noted that activated carbon has a certain saturation. That is to say, when the activated carbon adsorbs formaldehyde to a certain saturation, it will no longer have an adsorption effect, and there may even be a risk of secondary release of formaldehyde. Therefore, when using activated carbon to adsorb formaldehyde, the carbon bag needs to be replaced frequently. Fortunately, activated carbon is generally relatively cheap, costing only a few dozen yuan a box.

Green plants decompose and absorb formaldehyde

There are many green plants in our life that have good adsorption and decomposition of formaldehyde, and they can also be cultivated indoors, such as: broccoli, sweet potato leaves, spider plants, tiger tail plants, ivy, aloe vera, agave, monstera, gerbera, chrysanthemum, green ivy, begonia, communis, etc. Placing a pot of green plants indoors can not only have a good formaldehyde removal effect, but also improve indoor air quality, and it looks beautiful.

In general, installing an air purifier indoors can absorb and reduce the indoor formaldehyde content to a certain extent, and it can also filter and purify particles such as PM2.5 in the air. However, the air purifier also has a certain saturation, so it needs to be cleaned once in a period of time.

However, the formaldehyde removal master also said that although there are many ways to remove formaldehyde, it is difficult to completely remove formaldehyde because the volatilization of formaldehyde is a very long process, and the incubation period of formaldehyde can be as long as 15 years. Therefore, the best way in life is to regularly test the indoor formaldehyde content and reduce the formaldehyde content in a timely and effective manner.

For formaldehyde detection, you can find a professional technician to come to your home regularly for inspection and cleaning, or you can place a professional household formaldehyde detector at home as a backup. It is small in size and easy to use, and uses high-precision semiconductor sensors and multi-layer microporous filtration technology to effectively avoid interference from ethanol, carbon monoxide, etc. The measurement content can be accurate to one thousandth, allowing you to create a healthy, environmentally friendly and comfortable living environment for your family.

Warm tips: 1. If you want to keep the indoor formaldehyde content under the national standards, the best solution is to use less or no artificial wood boards during decoration, because the adhesives used in artificial wood boards contain more formaldehyde. Although you may not feel anything when the decoration is just started, the artificial boards will deform over time and release formaldehyde quickly when heated, which will endanger the health of your family.

2. The decoration master should try to use less or no glass sealant. I believe you may have heard this saying: there is no glue without formaldehyde, and there must be glue wherever there is formaldehyde. Moreover, after the silicone sealant is used to seal toilets, sinks, bathtubs, etc., although it looks good at first, it will easily turn black and moldy over time, especially in the hot summer, and even emit some odor.

Therefore, it is recommended to use some solid plastic steel mud with good stability, waterproof and mildew resistance when sealing. This not only contains less formaldehyde, but also has much better sealing and beautification effects than traditional liquid glass glue.
