Many industry insiders know that there are three key environmental indicators for epoxy floor paint: VOC, heavy metals, and free formaldehyde.

VOC, also known as volatile organic compounds, is a hidden killer of floor decoration pollution. It is released in large quantities during the drying process of floor coatings and slowly emits trace amounts over long-term use. The presence of VOCs gives people the most intuitive feeling of having a distinct odor. When VOCs reach a certain concentration in the air, their odor will directly cause discomfort to the human body. Due to the potential health impacts of VOCs, international mainstream environmental certification systems and regulations strictly control the content of this substance; Generally, salespeople make a big fuss about VOCs, emphasizing that their content is almost zero. However, in fact, VOCs are more closely related to the film-forming effect of coatings. If the content is low, it can lead to unstable coating film-forming.

Harmful substances such as heavy metals and free formaldehyde, such as environmentally friendly coatings, are not present in free formaldehyde, lead, chromium, mercury, and other heavy metal ions. This is a higher-level environmentally friendly coating.

The basic requirements of national standards for environmentally friendly coatings are: TVOC value shall not exceed 100g/L, benzene and its derivatives value shall not exceed 500mg/kg, free formaldehyde value shall not exceed 100mg/kg, mercury value shall not exceed 60mg/kg, lead value shall not exceed 90mg/kg, cadmium value shall not exceed 75mg/kg, and chromium value shall not exceed 60mg/kg. TVOC、 Interior wall coatings that meet national standards, such as benzene and its derivatives, free formaldehyde, heavy metals mercury, lead, cadmium, chromium, etc., are considered environmentally friendly coatings.
