Water-quality paint drying problem is overcome, furniture is expected to be more environmentally friendly.

The idea that water-only paint is more environmentally friendly than oil-like paint has gained popularity. With the attention of the state and society to environmental protection issues, poor environmental protection of oily paint is gradually replaced by water-related paint. At present, the field of wall paint is almost the world of water-only paint, however, another major source of home-made pollution - furniture, the application of water-quality paint is not much.
water-based paint is more environmentally friendly, but in furniture used less
" China's furniture paint harmful material release compared with European standards, a difference of 303 times. "At a recent forum on the development of water-based coating and drying technology in furniture, Yao Ruling, deputy general manager of Shenzhen Changjiang Furniture, said that although water-based paint has been widely used in the field of
coating
, it has not been popularized in furniture paint. According to a 2012 Beijing Furniture Association survey, the furniture industry's
water-based wood paint
accounted for only 8.3%, far less than the European and American share of more than 60%.
water-based paint water as a thinner, no organic solvent coating, is an environmentally friendly coating. This coating does not contain benzene, toluene, xylene, formaldehyde, free TDI toxic heavy metals, non-toxic non-irritating odor, harmless to human body, do not pollute the environment. More than 50% of traditional oil-based paints are organic solvents that release harmful gases into the atmosphere during construction and pollute the environment, said Yu Jinqing, a professor at South China University of Technology.
because of the environmental protection of water-sensitive paint, in recent years, furniture paint "oil" to "water" topic in the industry has been hotly debated. The state also strongly supports the development of water-only paint, and has made adjustments to many policies and regulations. For example, the collection of oil paint VOC consumption tax and emission tax, furniture factory emissions are stipulated. Beijing requires all oil furniture factories to move out by 2016, and Shenzhen has imposed restrictions. Yang Xian, chairman of the China Water Paint Technology Alliance, said in his speech that water-only paint is a matter for the benefit of the country and the people, and the government will certainly actively support it. At present, water-quality paint has entered a number of local government procurement lists, by many large-scale events and events as designated products. Driven by this environment, furniture water-only paint will become the mainstream of the future.
the high cost, construction difficulties, conceptual deviation is a stumbling block
Although the furniture water-based paint is a more environmentally friendly material, however, water-based paint in the domestic promotion is relatively slow, according to the industry analysis, the lack of relevant standards, high cost, construction difficulties and other issues are water-based paint development "roadblock."
first of all, slow drying is the biggest problem of water-cause paint, the traditional hot air plus infrared drying method is slower, and the drying of water-estro paint is also affected by weather factors. Rain-soaked southern areas make it difficult to dry water-filled paint. Moreover, the high cost of using water-based paint is also a major reason to prevent small and medium-sized enterprises from adopting water-based paint.
addition, the wear resistance and brightness of water-based paints are difficult to match
traditional
paints". Domestic consumption habits like surface light, high richness, heavy paint, water-only paint to achieve this effect, need higher costs and more complex processes. Most furniture companies prefer to use relatively simple-to-use, technically mature paints that cater to consumer preferences.
microwave infrared hydration technology to solve the problem of water-related paint drying
drying slow is recognized by the industry to promote the key issue of furniture water-related paint, and there are new methods to overcome this technical problem. At this forum, Carberry launched its first "microwave infrared hydration technology", which is expected to promote the development of water-quality paint furniture.
according to The General Manager of Carberry Water Paint Division Zhu Yan'an, microwave infrared drying, that is, through microwave and infrared radiation, so that the water completely evaporated. The thermal conduction efficiency of this technology is very high, can instantly increase the temperature from the inward to the outside, and the heating is balanced, thus avoiding the whitening, mold, cracking and other phenomena faced by the water-only coating of furniture. Through this technology, two bottom two sides of the furniture paint can be quickly dried in about an hour, and can be directly packaged. If the use of traditional paint, drying time of at least 4 hours, microwave infrared drying technology effectively solves this bottleneck restricting the development of the industry. It is reported that more and more furniture enterprises have adopted water-based furniture paint, including IKEA home (IKEA), Shenzhen Yangtze River furniture, Shenzhen colorful children's furniture, Foshan Junye furniture and other well-known enterprises.
