    Core tip: with people's attention to environmental protection and low-carbon life, diatom mud, which is famous for its environmental protection function, is more and more favored by people However, because the domestic diatom mud market is not mature enough at present, each manufacturer produces diatom mud according to their own standards, and the understanding of diatom mud is also very different Therefore, consumers' understanding of diatom mud will also be biased Next, let's see what mistakes people usually fall into when purchasing First, we should understand what kind of diatom mud is scrub resistant and why The reasons given by consumers are simple Paint knowledge how about Akzo Nobel Powder Coating Recommended introduction: powder coating is a kind of coating with different form from general coating, which is in powder form It is a new type of coating, because of its own advantages and more and more known by people Let's introduce Akzo Nobel Powder coating Akzo Nobel Powder coating is a cost-effective coating solution, which can be applied to different kinds of products After the treatment of static electricity and fire baking, a tough and durable coating surface will be formed, with the least impact on the environment Since the introduction of this technology, powder coating has been able to continue to maintain the Paint Home News: with people's attention to environmental protection and low-carbon life, diatom mud, which is famous for its environmental protection function, is more and more favored by people However, because the domestic diatom mud market is not mature enough at present, each manufacturer produces diatom mud according to their own standards, and the understanding of diatom mud is also very different Therefore, consumers' understanding of diatom mud will also be biased Next, let's see what mistakes people usually fall into when purchasing First, we should understand what kind of diatom mud is scrub resistant and why The reason given by the consumer is very simple It's easy to take care of it when it's dirty There seems to be nothing wrong with this reason, but there are some problems From a technical point of view, it is easy to solve the problem of scrub resistance It can be completely realized by adding a strong alkaline mineral binder and an appropriate amount of chemical binder The same is true for paint products Generally speaking, scrub resistant latex paint is a good quality emulsion It is not difficult in technology to achieve scrub resistance The problem is that the result of blind pursuit of scrub resistance is that the respiratory performance of diatomite is greatly reduced, which is manifested as poor respiratory performance, which is the water absorption emphasized by many manufacturers Because the addition of strong alkaline substances and excessive binders causes the phenomenon of "pore plugging" of diatomite, what is the significance of such diatomite mud? 2 The reason why diatomite mud is called "diatomite mud" is that its main active component "diatomite" Diatomite is a mineral name, evolved from the remains of ancient diatoms Its main component is opal The natural diatomite is buried in the structure of the ore bed Because of its porous adsorption, it contains a lot of impurities The purified diatomite is white, light yellow and light gray Only the raw diatomite ore containing a large number of unknown impurities will have color These impurities block the breathing hole of diatomite, not only lose the breathing function, but also produce new pollution Diatomite itself is not rare, but the advanced diatomite which can be used to make diatomite wall material is very limited, which is determined by the difficulty of purification and the purity of the finished product Some manufacturers use the raw material of raw diatomite which contains a lot of impurities Although it has "natural" color, the activity of diatomite is almost zero, and various heavy metals and other substances in the impurities will become potential killers of health Under the guise of "raw ore color" and "natural color" of diatom mud, in fact, the inferior products with great risk are sold, which deserves our attention Misunderstanding 3 The use of diatom mud can completely solve the problem of indoor pollution Diatom mud is a very good indoor functional and decorative wall material product For this point, Xiaobian agrees very much Because of this reason, diatom mud products are loved by consumers But it should be pointed out that diatom mud should not be used as a panacea to solve indoor air pollution The selection of interior decoration materials should start from a little bit, at the same time, we should pay attention to the selection and use of other building materials For example, try to avoid using inferior paint, wallpaper, furniture, wood, etc., especially try to avoid purchasing and using inferior melamine board furniture 4 The diatom mud is a very rough reference to "mud" The first reaction in many people's minds is a rough mud made of sand It seems that only the similar "diatom mud" is true, and those very delicate ones must be fake, or fake by putty powder It is true that some small workshops use ordinary putty powder or similar products to pretend to be diatom mud, but it is a big mistake to judge whether diatom mud is true or not based on the thickness of products Diatomite is the main raw material of diatomite, but pure diatomite can not be used as building materials directly on the wall Besides diatomite, there are many other inorganic fillers in diatomite Whether diatomite or inorganic filler, there are different choices of coarse material and fine material If diatomite uses fine material and filler also uses fine material, the finished diatomite mud will not be rough, but it still has all the characteristics of diatomite mud On the contrary, if a product does not use diatomite, but uses a lot of coarse fillers, the final product will be very rough, but it is completely "fake" diatomite mud Some businesses propagandize that "only rough surface can have the function of absorbing moisture and removing aldehyde", which is even more nonsense The functionality of diatomite is realized by molecular micropores invisible to the naked eye, which has nothing to do with whether the surface is rough or not It's just an excuse to fool consumers to say that only rough can have functionality Home of coatings focuses on the news and information of coatings, diatom mud, paint coatings, coating process, fire retardant coatings and coatings, paint coatings, coating process, decoration knowledge and decoration effect map of fire retardant coatings,
