How to choose environmentally friendly carpet adhesive? Today, we introduce innovative carpet adhesives with high adhesive strength, low VOC and versatility.
What is VOC? The US Environmental Protection Agency defines VOC as: Any carbonaceous compound with atmospheric photochemical reactions other than CO, CO2, H2CO3 metal carbides, metal carbonates and ammonium carbonate.
Outdoors, VOCs mainly come from industrial waste gas generated by fuel combustion and transportation, automobile exhaust, and photochemical pollution. Indoors are mainly from combustion products such as coal and natural gas, smoke from smoking, heating and cooking, construction and decorative materials, paints, coatings and adhesives, furniture, household appliances, detergents and the body's own emissions.
What harm does VOC have? VOC is a non-negligible pollutant in the entire atmosphere. These compounds are toxic and cause photochemical smog, which pollutes outdoor or indoor air and affects human health. VOC mainly irritates the eyes and respiratory tract, making the skin allergic, causing headaches, sore throat and fatigue. In addition, VOC contains many carcinogens.
Therefore, one of the indicators for choosing environmentally friendly carpet adhesives is low VOC, which must comply with national safety standards. In addition, environmentally friendly carpet adhesives also need to pass ISO 9001 / ISO 4001 standards.
