Ⅱ. The concept and related characteristics of ecological and environmentally friendly boards
1. The concept of ecological and environmentally friendly boards
As an important aspect of eco-environmental materials, there is currently no clear concept of eco-friendly boards. However, at present, most researchers have a consistent concept of eco-friendly boards, which is that they can be environmentally friendly during the production and use processes. It has the smallest impact on pollution and damage, and at the same time maximizes its function. It is a new type of environmentally friendly decorative board. It can be seen from this that ecological and environmentally friendly panels are a low-pollution or pollution-free healthy building material. At the same time, such panels can have good performance in terms of health and environmental protection of the residents. Based on this type of panels, Features, ecological and environmentally friendly boards are favored by most owners.
2. Characteristics of ecological and environmentally friendly boards
Due to the highly developed society today, people can learn about decorative materials in various ways. As ecological panels for interior decoration, they have the following characteristics:
(1) Minimize pollution and release of harmful gases. Most of the so-called ecological and environmentally friendly boards are materials with very low pollution levels and pollution indexes. Although there are some gas emissions, the pollution to the human body is basically non-existent. At the same time, in terms of indoor and outdoor environment and air quality assurance, they also comply with relevant regulations.
(2) It can effectively save resources and energy. The production and use of ecological and environmentally friendly boards can better ensure the needs of sustainable development. At the same time, in terms of production and manufacturing processes, they can better ensure that the environment will not cause pollution, and at the same time, the large amount of waste generated will be eliminated. Able to be recycled and reused in a reasonable manner.
(3) Use pollution-free and environmentally friendly materials in the production and manufacturing process. As we all know, most boards are polymeric or plywood. During the production and use of these boards, a large amount of glue and other related adhesives are inevitably used. For eco-friendly boards, it is necessary to ensure that formaldehyde and other related substances are not used during the production process. harmful compounds, thereby avoiding people’s concerns about the release of harmful gases from the board during use.
Ⅲ. Types of eco-friendly boards
In today’s use of interior decoration materials, a large number of ecological and environmentally friendly materials have been widely used. At the same time, a large number of manufacturers are constantly developing new material types to meet the needs of different customers. Currently, there are several types of eco-friendly boards in the market.
1. Original natural board
Such a board is a decorative board formed by cutting and processing pure natural tree species or wood (such as ash, pine, oak, etc). The main process of producing this board is cutting, pasting, and high-temperature baking, a decorative board formed by drying. This kind of decorative board uses less external materials and basically has original wooden texture and structure. It has a more natural appearance and a strong three-dimensional and realistic feeling. This kind of material has a lot of space in the current market, very popular with customers.
2.Eco-friendly plastic sheet
As a relatively new building material, ecological and environmentally friendly plastic sheets have the advantages of high temperature resistance and strong hardness. At the same time, they have good effects in fire prevention, sound insulation and other aspects. Most of the eco-friendly plastic boards are polyester materials. This material is characterized by its strong shape and rich color feeling. It is widely used in modern decorative materials, especially in the selection of boards for workwear. The characteristic of this type of board is that it is made of polymer materials during the production process, so its environmental protection and safety are better guaranteed.
3.Artificial formaldehyde-free wooden panels
The characteristic of artificial boards is that they imitate the grain and texture of natural wood. Due to mass production and processing, most of its textures are relatively regular and similar. At the same time, its three-dimensional and realistic feel are also significantly different from those of natural wood, but the advantage is that the price is relatively low, the maintenance during use is relatively simple, and it does not require very careful care and maintenance. Most of these synthetic materials are made by compressing wood chips, cardboard and other materials at high temperatures, and finally pasting them with glue. Therefore, it is inevitable that this type of board will release a certain amount of harmful gases such as formaldehyde. Based on such a situation, through research by some manufacturers, the artificial boards on the market now have relatively strict requirements in terms of formaldehyde emissions. Therefore, there are formaldehyde-free artificial boards currently on the market. The gas emissions of this type of boards comply with national regulations and requirements. For The human body and the indoor environment are also better protected, and it is also a best-selling product on the market.
