1. what is diatom mud
1. diatom mud is mainly composed of diatom, which comes from natural substances deposited by aquatic plankton diatoms millions of years ago. It is mainly porous and plays a certain role in adsorbing formaldehyde. Diatomite is not everywhere. The occurrence of radioactive elements in diatom mud exceeds the standard, mainly because some unscrupulous businessmen have added harmful substances to diatom mud, and some fake and shoddy products are caused by the market.
2. Diatomite is a porous structure with adsorption and ion exchange properties, which can adsorb formaldehyde. However, any product does not have the performance of diatom mud to decompose formaldehyde. Some first-line brands do have the technology to decompose formaldehyde from diatom mud. However, some niche brands, three without products, really don't.
2. What to pay attention to when purchasing diatom mud
1. Look, the so-called look depends on the certificate first. Generally, qualified diatom mud products manufacturers have patent certificates issued by the State Building Materials Bureau or test reports issued by state authorities. This is to ensure that enterprises have relevant technologies and production qualifications for diatom production, and on the other hand, to provide protection for consumers' rights. Secondly, look at diatom mud products. Diatom mud has a uniform and soft texture, matte color and muddy effect.
2. Try, if you want to choose high-quality diatom mud, you can try the water absorption of diatom mud. Diatomite is porous and has good water absorption, and high-quality diatom mud is inevitable. When you buy, you can do a test and spray water on the wall of diatom mud. Good diatom mud can absorb water easily and quickly.
3. Smell, the high-quality diatom mud itself will not emit any odor during the construction process, nor will it produce volatile substances such as formaldehyde. It is a truly zero-pollution green wall material.
4. From the test reports or certificates provided by national testing institutions, consumers can clearly understand the performance of products. Large diatom mud producers have their own factories, and only in this way can the product quality be guaranteed. Check whether the test report and certificate are true and complete.
5. The color is soft and uniform, without chromatic aberration, discoloration and chromatic aberration. Colorful diatom mud is made of organic coatings and is not environmentally friendly. The surface texture is soft, the particles are evenly distributed and there is no fiber on the surface. Diatom mud has a hard texture, coarse sand and poor hand feel, and loses its softness and softness.
6. Spray water directly onto the diatom mud wall with a watering can or sprinkler; The faster the water absorption, the better the respiratory function of golden diatom, which is the basic function of diatom mud.
I believe everyone has already understood the suggestions above in Xiaobian. For the choice of decoration materials, everyone should combine their own actual situation and their own preferences. I hope that Xiaobian's suggestion about what diatom mud is will be helpful for everyone to buy.
