Heavy metal hazard is not inferior to formaldehyde, buy children's furniture, don't forget to see the new national standard
New national standard for children's furniture and clothing Begin executing China's first national standard for children's furniture, "General Technical Conditions for Children's Furniture", was implemented on August 1. This is China's first national standard for children's furniture. It will end the current status of a national standard for children and adults. On the same day, the new version The "National Textile Product Basic Safety Technical Specification" has also begun to replace the previously implemented 2003 version of the national standard, becoming the latest mandatory national standard in the textile market. The new national standard has stricter requirements for the safety and environmental protection of children's furniture. For example, the edge of the edge of the furniture can not be pointed, it must be rounded to prevent children from hitting the bump; the height of 1.6 meters or less, glass parts can not be used, the size of the hole of the furniture can not be used. In order to prevent children from hiding in the furniture for too long and suffocating, the new national standard requires that the cabinet-type closed furniture used by children should have a certain ventilation function. This new national standard has stricter restrictions on 10 kinds of substances such as heavy metals, free formaldehyde and decomposable harmful substances in children's furniture, ensuring children are not affected by chemical substances. In the new national standard, the age range of infant and young children's clothing has been expanded from 2 years old to 3 years old. The new national standard divides children's clothing into three grades: A, B, and C. Among them, Class A clothing can be worn by infants, and Class B clothing can be worn close to the body. Class C clothing is only wearable. The formaldehyde content of Class A garments is required to be within 20 mg/kg, the content of Class B garments is less than 75 mg/kg, and that of Class C garments is less than 300 mg/kg. For textile products that do not meet the new standards, production, sales and imports are prohibited. The new national standard controls the toxic and harmful substances such as formaldehyde content, pH value, color fastness, odor and decomposable aromatic amine dyes. The newly added "maximal limit value of carcinogenic aromatic amines is 20mg/kg" is less than the maximum limit of 30mg/kg set by the EU in 2002. In addition, the new national standard stipulates that the product execution standard (including the year) must be marked on the product tag, and the safety technology category of the product implementation should be marked according to the requirements of GB18401 standard. The danger of heavy metals in furniture Not inferior to formaldehyde According to experts, children's furniture usually has more colors and more vivid colors. It is worth noting that whether the furniture paint is oily or water-based, the brightly colored paints generally contain more heavy metals than ordinary paints. In fact, the danger of heavy metals is no less than formaldehyde, which is widely used in furniture, ceramics, colored fabrics, plastic products, toys, stationery and other daily necessities. According to experts, the surface coating of furniture can bring heavy metals into the body under the action of human body contact friction or suitable solvent. That is to say, heavy metals can migrate into the human body through appropriate media. Soluble heavy metals are extremely harmful to the human body. For example, lead can damage human nerves, hematopoiesis and reproductive system, especially for 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 can cause dermatitis and eczema; chronic mercury poisoning can cause central nervous system diseases; sputum and arsenic can cause radiation damage to the skin, causing skin pigmentation, leading to abnormal keratinization; people will get rickets when selenium is excessiveé’¡ It can cause a burning sensation when it comes into contact with skin or eyes.
