    IKEA products will be tested by the Shanghai Institute of Quality Supervision and Inspection Technology and the National Furniture Quality Supervision and Inspection Center before they are launched, and generally speaking, their formaldehyde does not exceed the standard. However, there are also many customers who feel unwell after purchasing and are found to have exceeded the standard by self-testing. Formaldehyde will continue to be released for 3-15 years, so even if the content is safe, we should pay attention to the treatment of formaldehyde in life

    1. Ventilation, the higher the indoor and outdoor air exchange rate, the better the effect of reducing indoor pollutants.

    2. The use of activated carbon and other products to adsorb harmful gases, while assisting ventilation, can effectively improve the effect of removing pollution, better is the upgraded material of alcoidine-activated carbon, which does not need to be dried and can decompose and remove harmful substances by itself, and there will be no secondary pollution.

    3. Photocatalyst and photophyll spraying. The latter is a pure plant extract, which can be decomposed without light, and is safe and harmless.

    IKEA furniture is generally produced in accordance with national emission standards, but there are still many types of formaldehyde that exceed the standard, after all, due to the cost. Even if a piece of furniture does not exceed the standard, many furniture will still exceed the formaldehyde standard at home, so if the indoor decoration pollution exceeds the standard, it is still recommended to use professional methods to treat the interior.

    Governance Approach. 1. Ventilation method: the largest amount of pollution released after the decoration has just ended, at this time, the effect of what deodorant is not much better, the best way is to open the window for ventilation. After the renovation of the new house is completed, it must be ventilated every day.

    2. Plant law: Indoor proper cultivation of some spider plants and other green plants.

    3. Decomposition method of pure herbal extract:

    Using the principle of decomposition and catalysis, the pure plant extract is used as the main active ingredient, and it is refined by scientific proportioning and special composite process. It has a super and long-lasting decomposition ability for decoration pollution. Formaldehyde volatilized from furniture and various panels and free in indoor air is efficiently captured and converted into carbon dioxide and water.

    The most important thing is that it can penetrate deeply into the interior of the furniture board and decompose it, fundamentally solving the source problem of formaldehyde.

    IKEA's home has formaldehyde, most of the furniture on the market has formaldehyde, and if the furniture formaldehyde exceeds the standard, it can be alleviated by ventilation.

    Through the circulation of indoor air, the ventilation method can reduce the content of harmful substances in the indoor air, thereby reducing the harm of such substances to the human body. In winter, people often close doors and windows, indoor and outdoor air can not circulate, not only the content of formaldehyde in indoor air will increase, radon will also continue to accumulate, and even reach a high concentration. Good effect, no cost.

    However, it takes a long time, and it generally takes more than three years for formaldehyde to be removed.

    Formaldehyde pollution is mainly concentrated in homes, textiles and food. Man-made boards such as plywood, fiberboard, and particleboard in living room decoration materials and furniture contain a large amount of formaldehyde-based urea-formaldehyde resin, and formaldehyde is contained in various paints and coatings.

    Formaldehyde is inevitable, but IKEA supplies it to the store according to their own standards, because it is also supplied to Europe and North America, so the environmental protection requirements and formaldehyde emission content are very high.

    Formaldehyde is a colorless gas with a strong pungent odor. Soluble in water, alcohol and ether. Formaldehyde is gaseous at room temperature and usually comes in the form of an aqueous solution.

    35 40% aqueous solution of formaldehyde is called formalin. There is an aldehyde group in the formaldehyde molecule to generate a polycondensation reaction, and phenolic resin can be obtained.

    The main harm of formaldehyde is the irritation of the skin and mucous membranes. When formaldehyde reaches a certain concentration indoors, people will feel uncomfortable, and greater than the formaldehyde concentration can cause eye redness, itching, throat discomfort or pain, hoarseness, sneezing, chest tightness, wheezing, and dermatitis.

    Formaldehyde is an important organic raw material, mainly used in the plastic industry (such as phenolic resin, urea-formaldehyde plastic - electric jade), synthetic fibers, leather industry, medicine, dyes, etc. Formalin has bactericidal and antiseptic abilities and can be used to soak biological specimens, and its dilute solution can be used agriculturally to soak seeds and sterilize seeds. In industry, catalytic oxidation is commonly used to produce formaldehyde from methanol.

    Formaldehyde can react with silver ammonia solution to produce a silver mirror, so that a thin layer of bright metallic silver is attached to the inner wall of the test tube, and reacts with the newly made copper hydroxide suspension to form red precipitated cuprous oxide.

    Colorless aqueous solution or gas. There is a pungent odor. It can be miscible with water, ethanol, acetone and other organic solvents in any proportion. The liquid is easy to be turbid when stored for a long time when it is cold, and it forms a paraformaldehyde precipitate at low temperature. It can be slowly oxidized to formic acid in air.

    Whether the IKEA furniture exceeds the standard can be detected with an air detector, the outside temperature is relatively low in winter, the furniture plate does not belong to the volatile stage, and the floor heating at home will release relatively more, which can be properly ventilated.

    1. The ventilation effect of natural window opening has but the cycle is long and the efficiency is low.

    2. The air conditioner in addition to formaldehyde is not of much use.

    3. Plant adsorption and dispersion of flavor is the same as placing cactus in front of the computer.

    4. The so-called formaldehyde is volatile, formaldehyde is long-term volatile, such as particle board, glue in Daxing board, curtain cloth flowers, all contain formaldehyde, you can use professional formaldehyde products to remove, clear after the test is qualified, and then move in.

    New furniture will basically have formaldehyde more or less, because formaldehyde is one of the components, just do a good job of formaldehyde removal measures. After removing the smell of formaldehyde, you can start to move in, and there are some ways to remove it:

    1. Ventilation method, ventilation at a point in time every day, ventilation is conducive to indoor air circulation, and formaldehyde is released.

    2. The better one is photophyll to decompose, which is extracted from the plant body, which can enhance the photosensitivity of the plant and improve the light sensitivity of the photocatalyst. It makes up for the weakness of photocatalysts.

    3. Many spider plants and aloe vera are selected to be placed at home, on the bedroom cabinet, waiting to grow up.

    4. Purifiers and formaldehyde air conditioners are not very useful, because these individuals feel that they are almost the same as ventilation.

    5. Salt water wiping furniture, grapefruit peel and the like are relatively old generation methods, I don't know if it works, scientifically speaking, it is not good.

    Comprehensive treatment is desirable, to combine the above methods together, will definitely give yourself a healthy environment quickly.

    Don't be fooled! Formaldehyde is removed so that it is effective.

    Formaldehyde removal step 1 --- pollution detection.

    If possible, you can detect the actual pollution situation and conduct an environmental assessment of decoration materials and furniture. If it's not convenient, you can buy formaldehyde test strips or detection agents, these two things are completely fine at home.

    Formaldehyde removal step 2 --- article protection.

    Use disposable covers to cover clothing, TVs, stereos, and plants.

    Formaldehyde removal step 3--- high temperature fumigation.

    Targeted high-temperature fumigation of wooden furniture, cabinets, carpets, curtains, etc., under the dual action of high temperature and fumigation, the surface of the object will accelerate the volatilization of harmful substances.

    Formaldehyde removal step 4--- strong ventilation.

    For places with poor ventilation conditions, such as shopping malls, office buildings, basements and other places, without a fresh air system, large fans or exhaust fans are used to carry out forced ventilation while fumigating and removing odors.

    In the fifth step of formaldehyde removal--- formaldehyde is removed with clear mangreen excellent photocatalyst.

    This is a formaldehyde removal spray, and it took almost three bottles to remove my 40-square-meter single apartment. This is done by spraying hard into the room every morning, then opening the window to let in the air, and then closing the window at night.

    Remember, be sure to open the windows.

    Formaldehyde removal step 6--- restore the furniture and wipe it.

    Even if the furniture is covered, there will still be some formaldehyde molecules drilled into it, so when we restore the furniture, we had better wipe it with a warm towel and remove formaldehyde by manual methods.

    Most of the furniture on the market has formaldehyde, some of the so-called furniture that has reached the national standard, but its release is small, but the furniture is more in a room, it will exceed the standard, if it exceeds the standard, it is necessary to do a good job of removing formaldehyde

    1. Photophyllin, extracted from plants, can enhance the photosensitivity of plants and the light sensitivity of photocatalysts. To make up for the weakness of photocatalysts, photophyll can also play a very strong formaldehyde removal effect even in indoor environment, even in a very weak light environment.

    2. Wipe the furniture with salt water to remove the smell.

    3. In summer, the temperature is high, and formaldehyde is released, and more ventilation can ventilate a part of it.

    4. Carbon bag adsorption, with good quality, there are algae earth and activated carbon, which can not only adsorb formaldehyde, but also decompose, which can be used for 3 to 5 years.
