Solid wood furniture and natural may not necessarily be equated. Zhao Shoutian, director of the Redwood Professional Branch of the China Furniture Association, pointed out that due to the scarcity of many woods, the use of whole boards, that is, a large piece of wood to make solid wood furniture, has become less and less.
At present, the raw materials of solid wood furniture, some are two or more pieces of wood glued into veneers, and some are made of broken wood after bonding. This method of production will also involve the problem of using glue, and many of the glues are formaldehyde-containing, that is to say, there will be some solid wood furniture, although solid wood is used, but there is also a certain amount of formaldehyde release.
Generally speaking, the glues mainly used in furniture are urea-formaldehyde glue and white glue. The formaldehyde content of urea-formaldehyde glue is higher, and the formaldehyde emission of white glue is relatively smaller.
The mahogany furniture also has a fish skin glue, which is a completely natural material and is formaldehyde-free.
Therefore, when we buy solid wood furniture, we should try our best to choose the brand products that pass the national quality inspection. Consumers can ask the seller to make a description of the wood and glue used in the furniture.
When buying solid wood furniture, try to avoid too much spliced ​​furniture. Specific questions can be asked to the seller and the timber-related situation is written into the purchase contract as a condition for rights protection.
In addition, after buying solid wood furniture, it should be placed and ventilated for at least two months before being put into use, so as to ensure the volatilization of harmful gases and avoid health damage.
