After the implementation of the mandatory national standards for children's furniture, most of the specifications and specifications are in line with the new regulations, but it is difficult to find the 'heavy metal content test report' on the market.†Ms. Sun said. I have carefully studied the new national standard, which imposes strict limits on the content of 10 toxic and hazardous substances including soluble heavy metals such as antimony, arsenic, antimony and selenium. The reporter's investigation found that the metal test report of the furniture market is indeed hard to find, and experts remind consumers to ignore the dangers of heavy metals. Difficult heavy metal test report reporters visited a number of furniture stores yesterday, most of the business shows are environmental certificates and quality inspection reports, but the reporter did not find a report on heavy metals. A salesperson said that with these two items, the furniture is in line with national standards and is an environmentally friendly product. A person in charge of a well-known brand furniture in North China told reporters that some furniture used a plant painting process, no added thinner; some furniture even paint free, using wooden stickers; some furniture used environmentally friendly paint or water-based paint, these furniture is fundamental It does not contain heavy metals, so there is no need to test it. So, is it as the merchant said that the use of environmentally friendly paint or paint-free furniture does not contain heavy metals? In this regard, Li Hongzhu, an associate researcher at the Tianjin Pharmaceutical Research Institute, said that the heavy metals in furniture are mainly derived from the pigment coating on the surface of the product. Even water-based paints may contain heavy metals, which may come from the filler used in the production of water-based paints - mineral powder. Common talcum powder, titanium dioxide, etc., if there is a problem with these mineral powders, then heavy metals will be brought into the paint. Zhang Yuncheng, vice president of Tianjin Furniture Association, pointed out that according to the "Limits of Hazardous Substances in Wood Furniture for Interior Decoration Materials", four heavy metals such as cadmium, chromium, lead and mercury in wood furniture must be within the limited standard range, that is, lead ≤ 90 Mg/kg, cadmium ≤75 mg/kg, chromium ≤60 mg/kg, mercury ≤60 mg/kg. The General Technical Conditions for Children's Furniture adds a limit requirement for four kinds of harmful substances, namely: 锑 ≤ 60 mg / kg, arsenic ≤ 25 mg / kg, é’¡ ≤ 1000 mg / kg, selenium ≤ 500 mg / kg . According to the relevant national standards, no matter which processing technology is used by the manufacturer, the furniture products should be tested for heavy metal content. Do not neglect the heavy metal hazard reporters found that most consumers do pay attention to environmental protection when purchasing furniture, but pay more attention to the content of formaldehyde and lead, do not understand the harm of heavy metals. Li Hongzhu said that due to the strong concealment of harmful substances such as heavy metals, it is not easy to cause consumers to be vigilant, but the surface coating of furniture may bring heavy metals into the body under the action of human body contact friction or suitable solvent. For example, chronic mercury poisoning mainly causes central nervous system diseases; sputum and arsenic have radioactive damage to the skin, which can cause skin pigmentation and lead to abnormal keratinization; when selenium is excessive, people will get rickets; when sputum is in contact with skin or eyes Can cause a burning sensation. Lead can damage human nerves, hematopoiesis and reproductive system, especially to children and adolescents, which may affect children's growth and development and intellectual development; long-term inhalation of cadmium may impair kidney and lung function; long-term exposure to chromium compounds may cause dermatitis and eczema. Zhang Yuncheng believes that heavy metal problems are widespread in household items, including furniture, ceramics, and flooring. In addition to furniture manufacturers should strengthen the emphasis on heavy metal testing, the relevant national law enforcement agencies should also strengthen the monitoring of heavy metal content of household goods. Remind consumers to choose products that are bright in color and color matching when purchasing furniture. Check carefully whether the quality inspection report of the merchant meets the requirements of “Limits of Hazardous Substances in Wood Furniture for Interior Decoration Materialsâ€.
