Recently, 15,000 scientists from 184 countries in the world signed a document jointly warning that human beings are facing an unprecedented threat to the Earth and urge people to pay attention to environmental protection. This is the second time that scientists have warned humans that "the first time" occurred In 1992, 1,700 scientists warned of major environmental problems, such as the ozone hole, and in the same vein, two documents spanning 25 years made a lengthy description of 'air pollution', showing the importance of the air environment to human life .
Air pollution will directly affect respiratory health, the most direct manifestation is smog.
In recent years, people gradually understand the fog haze and attention, but few people seem to know that the environmental protection of paint or not, but also have a direct impact on haze.Report shows that the highest proportion of haze source two Factors are the vehicle exhaust and VOC emissions, paint and other organic solvent-based paint is 'contribute' to the large VOC. Not only that, toluene, xylene paint into the atmosphere will produce some photochemical reactions, the ozone layer also has obvious At present, China is the country that uses such paint as the main paint.
According to a report from China Paint Research Institute, paint production in China was about 19 million tons in 2016, accounting for about 70% of paint. In this way, the paint contributes up to 13 million tons of VOC. According to experts in the industry, Paint all replaced by water-based paint and other environmentally friendly coatings, the air environment will have an immeasurable improvement compared to Europe and the United States compared to 90% of the proportion of water-based paint, paint our environmental protection is still a long way.
However, although the long-term goal is still far off, the process of universalization has been quietly accelerating.
Since 2015, water paint gradually into people's perspective, Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, Bird's Nest and other state-level buildings have used water paint as brushing material.It is also from that year, double 11 Shopping Festival's paint sales occupy the top spot There is a paint company that the 'oil to water' is the inevitable trend of environmental protection consumer upgrades, water paint to do with water, will inevitably replace paint and other organic solvents to dilute the paint.
According to the latest research results of China Water Paint Research Institute, each kilogram of water-based paint produced and used, the replacement of paint to reduce the VOC emissions of 0.8 kg, this amazing ratio is the core value of water paint is also the United States and other developed countries Forbidden paint, paint the reasons for the use of water.A paint of the person in charge said that at present our country 'oil to water' process is accelerating, from engineering, industrial paints to home decoration paint, various industries and the general consumer is gradually understanding , Approve and use water paint.
In 2017, the National Stadium Bird Nest Repaint Project selected a water-based paint company and signed a strategic cooperation agreement that will allow the entire nest to be redeployed up to 125 tons of paint usage items all painted with water-based paint, reducing approximately One hundred tons of VOC emissions; and just over the past Double XI, water-based paint is also the best-selling paint products category. 'Water-based paint' is accelerating, is bound to replace traditional paints and other coatings to help reduce man-made harmful VOC Threats.
