Is formaldehyde scavenger really effective?

The biggest pollution encountered in modern decoration is formaldehyde. Formaldehyde can cause many diseases and seriously affect our health. However, the release of formaldehyde can last as long as 15 years. Therefore, reducing formaldehyde content is a top priority. But now we deal with formaldehyde basically choose activated carbon or formaldehyde scavenger, formaldehyde scavenger effective? What other methods can reduce the formaldehyde content?

First, deal with formaldehyde Consumers choose the most activated carbon followed by formaldehyde scavenger

Of course, there are some ways to deal with formaldehyde in the market, from activated carbon, formaldehyde scavenger, air purifier, deodorant, formaldehyde scavenger, to ultraviolet light, furniture adsorption treasure, photocatalyst, etc., to deal with various forms of formaldehyde products. There are many consumers who buy activated carbon, followed by formaldehyde scavenger.

Second, the use of formaldehyde scavenger

It is mainly used to remove formaldehyde pollution from already painted furniture surfaces and other decoration items (wooden doors, wooden wall enclosures, heating covers, wall cabinets, etc.) produced by man-made boards, and at the same time carries out maintenance treatment on the surface. The formaldehyde removal effect of the plate treated with paint is also powerful.

Third, formaldehyde scavenger works? The use of formaldehyde scavenger is not as good as the use of Erguotou with boiling water

Some professors believe that the formaldehyde scavenger “removes” formaldehyde by chemical reaction. The essence of this method is to reduce the toxicity of the target substance or convert it into a non-toxic substance. Formaldehyde, which can be oxidized to formic acid, can also be reduced to methanol. Although the toxicity and irritation of these two substances are lower than that of formaldehyde, their toxicity still exists. A strong oxidant such as hydrogen peroxide can oxidize formaldehyde, but it is easily decomposed by itself. Spraying on a wood board can damage the wood and cause it to lose its effectiveness within hours. It is impossible to achieve “one shot forever”. Moreover, the high concentration of hydrogen peroxide sprayed in the air will cause people new pollution hazards. Other oxidants and reducing agents are also not effective in removing formaldehyde, and will introduce similar new pollution.

Fourth, temporary use of formaldehyde scavenger can not be long-term treatment Ventilation is the best way

Yes, ordinary formaldehyde sprays only play a certain role in sealing, and they are mostly used in times of emergency. Your friend said yes, formaldehyde and benzene will slowly evaporate in the future, but it is still useful to use it now. The one that can reduce the volatile of the toxic gas in the new house is still beneficial to you. Please maintain ventilation and other measures after renovation. This is the best way to reduce gas poisoning. The most effective way is to open all the cabinet doors and ventilate it every day to replace the indoor air. Do not casually use formaldehyde scavenger, and now there are not many formal manufacturers in the country. Many have removed formaldehyde but brought secondary pollution and also damaged furniture.
