In this regard, the quality supervision department pointed out that the content of plasticizer in wallpaper has nothing to do with the price, and the most important thing is the material The reporter saw in Jingdong Mall that the price of ordinary wallpaper for 10 meters is about 30 yuan, while the price of "environmental wallpaper" is more than 80 yuan; the cheapest wallpaper on Taobao only needs 10 yuan, but the price of "environmental wallpaper" is basically more than 40 yuan Industry insiders said that the so-called "environmental wallpaper" in the market is actually pure wallpaper or non-woven wallpaper Even "environmental wallpaper" is not absolutely environmental friendly and non-toxic It was found by quality supervision that plasticizers were detected in most of the wallpapers, but no over limit plasticizers were detected in the wallpapers made of pure paper and non-woven paper, while the plasticizer detection rate in PVC Wallpapers was higher Moreover, there is no direct relationship between the price of wallpaper and the content of plasticizer, not that the higher the price is, the safer it is At present, there is no relevant compulsory standard It is worth mentioning that there is no relevant compulsory standard in China Quality supervision reminds that when purchasing PVC wallpaper, consumers are advised to choose a slightly thinner coating, because the plasticizer plays a role in flexibility The thicker the coating is, the more plasticizer may be added, and the more likely the plasticizer content will exceed the standard How to distinguish PVC material? It can be identified by smelling, burning or dripping PVC wallpaper has a pungent smell of industrial raw materials It can smell the stink of plastic when burning, and there is thick smoke The ash is black Due to the poor air permeability of PVC wallpaper, if it does not penetrate into the paper surface after water dripping, it is not pure natural wallpaper If consumers are confused about the quality of the wallpaper products they buy, they can check the third-party test report of the products they buy from the merchants, and send it to the authority for testing if necessary Home of coatings is specialized in coatings, diatom mud, paint coating, coating technology, fire retardant coating news and coating, diatom mud, paint coating, coating technology, fire retardant coating decoration knowledge and decoration renderings,
