Flame retardant can cause cancer, use furniture

What is a flame retardant? A flame retardant, also known as a flame retardant, a flame retardant, or a flame retardant, is a functional aid that imparts flame retardancy to flammable polymers. Flame retardants currently have organic and inorganic, halogen and non-halogen. It is a special chemical additive for improving the combustion performance of combustible flammable materials and is widely used in the flame retardant processing of various types of decoration materials. After being processed by the flame retardant, the fire-retardant material can effectively prevent, delay or terminate the flame propagation when it is attacked by the external fire source, so as to achieve the flame retardant effect.

The dangers of flame retardants in furniture warns people that in order to prevent fire, some household goods (sofa, curtains, floor mats, car seats) will add some flame retardants during the manufacturing process, but some components in the flame retardant There are certain hazards. For example, some brominated flame retardants will contain some polybrominated diphenyl ethers, which may cause cancer. Therefore, the flame retardants in furniture should be taken seriously to prevent the occurrence of hazards.

How to use furniture According to the national regulations, flame-retardant products will be inspected by inspection agencies engaged in the inspection of the burning properties of flame-retardant products, and the identification of flame-retardant products will be added. Therefore, the purchase of furniture can be based on this logo. Second, some of the furniture materials themselves have fire-resistant properties, such as natural materials such as linen or wool. Therefore, when purchasing furniture, this type of furniture can be preferentially selected to effectively prevent the adverse effects of flame retardants on the body.
