Tips for removing formaldehyde from new furniture

Many families who have just renovated their houses and put in new furniture, or even just replaced new furniture in their old homes, may face the problem of formaldehyde volatilizing in the air. I believe everyone already knows the harm of formaldehyde to the body. For families with children or babies, it is crucial to remove the formaldehyde in the furniture as soon as possible. Specifically, it mainly includes opening windows for ventilation, absorption of chemicals, absorption by green plants, etc.

Houses that have been renovated, new cars, and new furniture often contain formaldehyde. I believe everyone has heard more or less about the hazards of formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is a toxic chemical that can easily cause respiratory diseases and increase the risk of developing malignant diseases. Formaldehyde is a colorless gas. It can be said that formaldehyde has long become an invisible killer in our lives. So what should we do if there is formaldehyde in the furniture? How to remove formaldehyde?

At present, formaldehyde is the main pollutant in newly renovated homes. Formaldehyde is an important component of adhesives, so anything involving adhesives, including artificial boards, paints, carpets, and furniture, will contain formaldehyde. Therefore, formaldehyde pollution after decoration will be very serious. Formaldehyde is also very harmful to human health. How to remove formaldehyde after decoration is also a topic that people are increasingly concerned about.

In fact, the control of formaldehyde is not difficult. As long as the right method is used, it can be controlled quickly. Whether it is pollution caused by the purchase of new furniture or pollution caused by decoration, the treatment methods are the same, so what can be done specifically?

Open windows for ventilation and try to keep the indoor air circulating so that harmful substances such as formaldehyde in the room will be quickly dissipated. The doors and drawers of furniture should be opened frequently for ventilation so that harmful substances such as formaldehyde inside the furniture can be dissipated. Especially for new furniture, when you just bring it home, you should open all the doors and drawers that can be opened for ventilation. When using a wardrobe made of artificial boards, try not to put underwear, pajamas and children's clothes in it. Otherwise, harmful substances such as formaldehyde will remain in the clothes and endanger our health after wearing them. However, the ventilation method for removing formaldehyde is slow and cannot be interrupted. If ventilation is not maintained, indoor pollution will recur.

Secondly, some scientific purification measures can be taken indoors and on furniture to reduce the harmful gases released by furniture. For example, activated carbon is a traditional means of controlling formaldehyde. It has tiny pores on its surface and can be used to absorb odors and some formaldehyde pollution produced after decoration. Activated carbon is a physical adsorption and is safe for control, but its service life is about 6-10 months. Using activated carbon to control formaldehyde pollution requires constant replacement of new carbon bags.

Mumei Nano-Purification Stone is a new formaldehyde treatment method. Nano-Purification Stone can not only absorb harmful substances, but also decompose formaldehyde and other harmful substances into water and carbon dioxide that are harmless to humans. Although its price is slightly higher, it has strong treatment capabilities, fast speed, and high cost performance. It is suitable for families who are anxious to move in and those with heavy pollution.

It should also be noted that many people use grapefruit peels, pineapple peels and other fruits to remove formaldehyde, and it seems to be somewhat useful. In fact, they are just using the rich fruity aroma to cover up the smell of formaldehyde. It is not removing formaldehyde from the source, and pollution still exists. However, this method is not without benefits. Grapefruit peels can prevent insects and deodorize, and it is a good way to use them to fumigate the house.
