The harm of paint

Everyone knows that paint is harmful to the human body. So what are the hazards?

1. Toxicity of Organic Solvents Inhalation of vapors of organic solvents for long periods of time will cause chronic poisoning. However, exposure to high concentrations of organic solvent vapors for a short period of time may also be dangerous for acute poisoning. In industrial hygiene, the harm of organic solvents on the human body has a close relationship with the volatility of solvents. At room temperature, low volatile solvents do not pose a hazard in air. Other human hazards are related to the solvent's fat-soluble, reactive, containing impurities, the body's absorption of the way and way, the body's metabolic rate, accumulation, individual feeling and sensitivity, the length of exposure and so on.

2, the harm of paint on pregnant women (1) It may cause skin allergies in pregnant women, cause allergic reactions, directly or indirectly affect the fetal health and normal development.

(2) It contains benzene that can cause hemolysis reactions in pregnant women or fetuses.

(3) The lead it contains can enter the body of pregnant women through the skin mucous membrane or respiratory tract, causing chronic poisoning, damage to the mother and child is the nervous system.

There are many chemical elements in the paint, containing a lot of harmful substances, if pregnant women in the embryonic development during the first three months of pregnancy, the most do not contact these harmful substances, harmful substances will make the embryonic development deformity, the most common is the cleft lip and palate, if pregnant The long-term living in these harmful substances will affect the development of the fetal brain.

There are more formaldehyde, benzene and other organic solvents in the paint. These are very unfavorable to the fetus and should lead to fetal malformations.

3. The main components that have the greatest harm from formaldehyde paint are oil, resins, pigments, thinners, and accessories. The addition of formaldehyde to the paint is one of the biggest hazards. Although formaldehyde is not the main component of paint, he used it as a counter part of the paint to protect the quality of the paint, showing the brightness after painting. Formaldehyde has a strong stimulatory effect on the skin and mucous membranes. It is a combination of toxins and protein in the original pulp, which can generate formaldehyde in the body and have a strong damage to the retina.
