     First, the advantages of diatom mud coating
    1: its own green environmental protection
    diatom mud material natural, green environmental protection, does not contain formaldehyde,
    VOC and other pollutants, than some of the traditional wall materials from petroleum, glue to be much more environmentally friendly.
    2: Purifying air
    diatom mud from diatom soil, with a strong physical adsorption function, can absorb formaldehyde can absorb pollutants, play the function of purifying the air.
    3: Breathing moisture
    diatom mud can effectively regulate indoor humidity, in the indoor humidity adsorption of excess water, dry release of moisture
    China
    . It also prevents walls from dewing.
    4: Long service life
    diatom mud material is an inorderable material with a long life of
    20 years. There will be no drumming, edges, etc.
    5: Handcrafted, decorative effect of good diatom mud all made by craftsmen, a variety of patterns, texture style can be freely selected, more private custom-made, is the more popular home furnishings environmental protection materials. It is also the choice of major hotels and clubs.
    II, the shortcomings of diatom mud coating
    1: construction requirements are higher


    2: Decomposition formaldehyde technology big brand only
    most formal manufacturers produce diatom mud can adsorption, but adsorption did not really remove, adsorption saturation may lead to concentrated outbreak of pollution, resulting in secondary pollution.
    if you want to really remove pollution, you have to break down formaldehyde, but decomposition technology needs to have a strong scientific strength, now, only the big brand of diatom mud.
    3: Kitchen, bathroom can not use
    although diatom mud can breathe moisture, but in the kitchen, bathroom and other smoke, water too much place is not suitable for use, should choose tile products.
    4: Single coating costs are higher
    compared with some traditional wall materials, diatom mud single coating costs are higher. But if you look
    with its 20-year service life, the service life is 3-5 times that of traditional wall materials, the overall cost-effective is higher.
    5: good or bad difficult to distinguish
    have friends reflect that the home diatom mud done very rough, and there will be the phenomenon of powder drop. In fact, this is when buying did not choose well, now all manufacturers are promoting different methods of shopping, but its most reliable or look at the manufacturer's brand and the honor.
    big brands are guaranteed this know, and the honor depends on the credibility of the government honor, such as:
    "high-tech enterprises", "provincial brand" and other honors.
    Shell powder
    1, the advantages of shell powder paint
    1, raw latex paint, wallpaper are to excavate oil resources, deforestation at the expense of destroying the natural ecological balance;
    2, functional shell powder unique natural porous structure, with super adsorption function, can effectively adsorb formaldehyde, VOC and other harmful substances in the air, while reducing indoor smoke, pet odor, etc. ; Put an end to wall dew "tears", because shell powder is inorganic material itself can not electrostic, do not absorb dust is very easy to manage, relative to the traditional wall material organic material 3-5 years updated once, service life of up to 20 years or so.
    3, super cost-effective. Shell powder selection natural environmental protection, excellent function and excellent cost-effective coupled with long service time, which dwarfs many traditional coatings.
    4 high-performance green coatings and renewable resources as raw materials, is a non-polluting, zero-emission innovative ecological coatings.
    2, the shortcomings of shell powder paint
    because shell powder is a biological calcium carbonate made of powder
    , in general will not make people feel uncomfortable, the day of painting the same day stay or no problem, the current process, there is no unpleasant smell. Shell powder is a biological coating, environmental protection is much better than latex paint, the corresponding construction cost will be slightly higher.
    Latex paint
    First, the advantages of latex paint coating
    1, environmental protection: latex paint with water as a dispersion medium, no organic solvents or only a small amount of organic solvents, so production and construction, there is no or basically no organic solvent volatility and produce environmental pollution and harm to human health problems, transport and storage, there is no risk of outbreak and fire. It belongs to the category of water-based coatings, is a kind of resource-saving, safe and environment-friendly coatings.
    2, construction is convenient: latex paint can be painted, roller coating, spraying, can be diluted with water. The brush tool can be easily cleaned immediately with water. When not in use for a short time, the brush tool can also be immersed in water or sealed in a plastic bag.
    3, coating film drying fast: latex paint applied, with the evaporation of water, dry into a film. Under suitable climatic conditions, latex paint drying is relatively fast, generally 4h or so can be re-coated, a day can be applied two to three.
    4, good breathability: latex paint is evaporated by water, latex particles deformed into a membrane, so it has a good breathability.
    5, good water resistance: latex paint is a single-group water-based paint, can be diluted with water during construction, but after drying into a film, the coating film is insoluble in water, with good water resistance.
    6, performance can meet the requirements: regardless of any coating, as long as the performance can meet the requirements, people can use it. The same is true of latex paint, which can play a role in the areas it is involved in and uses, whether it is decorative or protective.
    , latex paint paint shortcomings
    1, single pattern, poor artistic effect.
    2, to apply primer, brush twice, process more.
    3, has odor, contains formaldehyde, volatile organic matter more.
    4, short use time, easy to yellow.
