Screen printing artwork should choose the environmental protection ink

When the home environment is more and more personal atmosphere, all kinds of decorative paintings have become a beautiful landscape. However, when choosing a decorative painting, besides satisfying the owner's aesthetic taste, don't neglect its environmental performance.

According to experts, man-made boards such as medium-density fiberboard, plywood, fine wood board, and chipboard have considerable indoor air pollution. In general, MDF cannot meet the national-level El-level environmental protection standards. In indoor decoration, veneers are usually used to prevent the volatilization of formaldehyde. However, as a painting, businesses and consumers ignore this problem. The air pollution of the entire room was caused.

At present, there are three types of decorative paintings on the market: one is the most common type of printed matter, and the other is a kind of physical decoration paintings such as original wood art paintings, manual paintings, and specimen paintings. The three types are hand-painted works such as watercolors, Chinese paintings, and oil paintings.

The harmful effects of decorative painting on the home environment may come from the following three aspects: First, the material of the picture frame is not safe enough. At present, almost all the decorative paintings use medium-density fiberboard, and the use of low-grade and even more serious pollution is low. In the MDF, formaldehyde and benzene were found to be 3-4 times higher than the standard; followed by the safety of pigments. Oil, gouache, and acrylic paints contained certain elements such as soluble germanium, arsenic, antimony, lead, mercury, and selenium. If these heavy metal elements are ingested excessively by the human body, it will seriously endanger the health. In addition, dark-colored pigments tend to have high metal content. Relatively speaking, screen-printing works, watercolors, and Chinese paintings are relatively safe in this regard. When purchasing, they should try to select this type of product. Third, the adhesive material may contain excessive amounts of Formaldehyde, benzene, etc., should pay special attention when purchasing physical objects.

Consumers should follow the health guidelines of using less paint, using less glue, and using less heavy-color dyes when choosing decorative paintings. The decorative paintings and paintings that you are interested in can be used to pay attention to whether or not they smell pungent. After you buy it home, you can store it in a well-ventilated place for a while.

Screen printing of watercolors, woodblock prints, Chinese paintings, oil paintings and other artistic reproductions should use environmentally friendly inks, especially in the food packaging industry and T-shirt apparel printing industry.
