Is formaldehyde serious on laminate floor?
1, laminate wood flooring contains a certain amount of formaldehyde, if more than the national standard value (1.5mg/L) will be harmful to the human body, in the purchase of national environmental protection mark certification products or free products.
2. The wear resistance of laminate wood flooring mainly depends on the content of aluminum oxide in the surface layer, and a certain number of wear revolutions corresponds to a certain amount of aluminum oxide. For the family floor wear revolution is usually more than 6000 revolutions, and in public places is usually more than 9000 revolutions.
3, water resistance can be reflected by the water absorption thickness expansion rate index, the index value is high, water resistance is poor, that is, it can easily cause dimensional change in a humid environment. Must not listen to the misdirection of waterproof floor, only moisture-proof floor without waterproof Wood Floor.

How to remove formaldehyde from laminate floor?
1, after the repair, there is no rush to move in. Formaldehyde is released very slowly, for up to 3-15 years. Therefore, the new house should be ventilated for at least 2 months, so that the formaldehyde on the floor can be released as far as possible. Especially in families with floor heating, after the floor is heated, the formaldehyde volatilization of the composite floor will be higher, and we must pay attention to more ventilation.
2, at home put activated carbon, green plants, such as spider plants, aloe vera, tiger orchid, etc., adsorption harmful substances.
3, with the rapid progress of science and technology, scientists have also developed new products to remove formaldehyde, the decomposition of harmful substances into carbon dioxide and water.
4, do not spray air freshener, perfume, etc., in the room after decoration to remove the "decoration smell" of the room, because the chemical composition of the air freshener reacts with harmful substances in the air, but will cause secondary pollution, more detrimental to health.

How to choose laminate flooring?

The wear resistance is an important index to examine the quality of laminate wood flooring, and the wear resistance determines the number of wear revolutions.
How can consumers make themselves have a real understanding of wear resistance? The method is very simple, when "shopping around", use sandpaper to carry out the same "grinding test" on different floors, that is, sandpaper on the surface of the floor to grind and wipe.
Generally, the number of wear revolutions of more than 10,000 revolutions of the floor, after several such grinding, with a wet rag to erase the surface sand, the floor is still intact, there will be no scratches. The floor with low wear revolutions will have obvious scratches on the surface, and even the pattern will be damaged.
The floor itself does not have formaldehyde, but the floor generally needs to be painted, and the service life of the painted floor will be longer, and it can prevent corrosion and moth.

In addition to laminate wood flooring, our decoration process will also have a lot of substances containing formaldehyde, such as curtains, cloth products, wallpaper, etc., these items will also contain a lot of formaldehyde, because they will use a lot of adhesives and formaldehyde reagents in the production process.

After we finished decorating, we often smelled a pungent smell in the new house. The pungent smell is formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is a very harmful gas. If we live in a room with high formaldehyde content for a long time, our body will be seriously affected. Therefore, when we finish decorating the house, we must remove the formaldehyde in the room in time, so that we can live with confidence.
