Environmental protection comparison between wallpaper and painted.

Wallpapers are divided into three categories: pure wallpaper, this is the best wallpaper, the price is very expensive; the other is PVC wallpaper, 90% of the current market is PVC wallpaper; in addition is PVD wallpaper. PVC paper needs to be printed, and formaldehyde is needed in the printing process, so formaldehyde is something that must be controlled. Regardless of the brand of latex paint, the formaldehyde is often almost zero, but wallpaper is impossible, because wallpaper must be printed Many patterns need to be printed and then used to make the pattern of the wallpaper. Therefore, in terms of environmental protection, latex paint is better than wallpaper.

At the same time, to ensure the durability of the wallpaper, it is often necessary to increase its abrasion resistance, which reduces the air permeability and the sealed structure will bring new problems. The first is that the formaldehyde contained in the wallpaper itself is not easy to release;

Secondly, the wall moisture is not easy to evaporate, which will cause the firmness between the wallpaper and the wall, and the requirement of latex paint, the alkalinity is less than or equal to 9.5%, but the wallpaper does not have this indicator. Because latex paint requires alkaline matching between the wall and latex paint, if the wallpaper does not match the wall alkaline, it will affect the wear resistance. At the same time, latex paint also has a thickness resistance index, but wallpaper does not have this index.

Does paint have to be environmentally friendly? Not so. But here is certain: its environmental performance is better than wallpaper. At present, the demand for latex paint in the Jiangcheng coating market accounts for roughly 70%. In the 2008 Olympic Games, Carboline paint was chosen instead of wallpaper, which shows that latex paint is more environmentally friendly than wallpaper.

From this point of view, in the traditional consumer concept, wall paint is still the first choice for home decoration, while wallpaper is more for young and fashionable families.

However, the propylene pigment used in wall painting is non-toxic and will not cause harm to the human body.
