Compression technology foam-does the formaldehyde content exceed the standard

Recently, many official accounts on the Internet are reposting [Nano sponge contains formaldehyde and exceeds the limit by 50 times. It is recommended that you do not use it. ] Is it really a "poison"? Is it so terrible as the legend says?

First of all, what I want to tell you is: the various parameters of the nano sponge are up to the standard and can be used with confidence. It has good physical stability and is insoluble in water, but non-toxic does not mean it can be eaten. Xiamen Share nano analyzed the usability of nanosponges from the way formaldehyde harms health.   

3 common ways that formaldehyde harms our health

The hazards of formaldehyde are mainly through direct contact, eating into the body and breathing contact. Let's see if the formaldehyde in the magic wipe can affect us through these three ways. 

1. Direct contact

Direct skin contact with a certain concentration of formaldehyde may cause symptoms such as irritant dermatitis and allergic dermatitis. We usually use the magic wipe to hold it directly in our hands, which does have certain health risks. But what you need to know is that one of the characteristics of formaldehyde is that it is easily soluble in water, and the concentration of formaldehyde in an aqueous solution can be as high as 55 percent (the "formalin" that is often heard is 40 percent formaldehyde water) , Usually when using the nano sponge magic to scrub the bowl, it is used after soaking in water, and the pore structure is as high as 95%, which is easy to absorb water. So even if there is some formaldehyde in the nano sponge magic wipe, there will be very little residue after a large amount of it is dissolved in water. Moreover, the formaldehyde is not used in a confined space, and it will dissipate before it is concentrated.

2.Eat into the body

When formaldehyde is eaten into the body, it will cause a direct poisoning reaction. In mild cases, the mucous membrane of the mouth, throat, esophagus, and stomach may be irritated. In severe cases, symptoms such as dizziness, coughing, and vomiting may occur. In severe cases, a large amount may occur. Stomach bleeding, coma or shock, etc. So some friends are worried that using magic tricks containing formaldehyde to scrub cups and plates, if formaldehyde remains on these things, it will be eaten into the body, which will affect our health.

In fact, don’t worry too much about this. I just said that the formaldehyde is easily soluble in water, but you must use water when using the magic wipe, so that most of the formaldehyde has been removed. If you are worried about residues on the plates and cups, rinse with more water. Just do it all over. One sentence summary is that as long as the bowls and dishes at the entrance are rinsed with clean water several times and ventilated to dry, there is no need to worry about formaldehyde remaining on tableware and utensils.

3.Breathing contact

When the formaldehyde content in the indoor air is 0.1mg/m3; we will smell peculiar smell; when it reaches 0.5mg/m3, it can irritate the eyes and cause tearing; when it reaches 0.6mg/m3, it will cause throat pain; no matter how high the concentration is It can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, coughing, chest tightness, wheezing and even emphysema.

Nano sponge magic wipes are usually very close to us when used. Will it increase the concentration of formaldehyde in the surrounding air and affect our health? To answer this question, let’s do an experiment: the experiment is very simple, that is, in a room with almost only a table, first test the concentration of formaldehyde in the air of the room itself, and then put the nano sponge magic wipe into the distance test box Test at about 10cm to see if the concentration of formaldehyde in the air increases. The formaldehyde test of the nanosponge shows that the formaldehyde content is still 0.03~0.05/m3. The nanosponge just opened is when the formaldehyde content is high, but when we use it, the nanosponge is used after soaking in water. After the formaldehyde is dissolved in the water There is no such high content.

From the experiment, we can realize that although the nanosponges contain formaldehyde, the formaldehyde is within the standard range and does not harm our human health. It's not just saying that the release of formaldehyde is not qualified. There are many things containing formaldehyde. As for the consequences, it is still subject to not exceeding the standard. The formaldehyde content of the compressed nano sponge produced by Xiamen Sihang Nano Technology Co., Ltd. is strictly controlled within the standard value, using high-quality raw materials and mature Compression process and formaldehyde removal process ensure high-quality compression technology foam with high density, no odor, good flexibility, wear resistance, durability, and strong cleaning power.
