Material selection requirements for medical furniture
Date：2021-01-06Preview：
The selection of materials for medical furniture should be green and environmentally friendly materials and comply with national technical standards. The green and environmentally friendly decoration materials of the hospital must follow the special requirements of the hospital. For example, the wall skirt of the hospital corridor and the door of the operating room must be anti-collision and anti-breakage; the ceiling material must be stain-resistant, mildew-free, easy to clean and easy to maintain; Floor materials should be easy to clean, anti-fouling, wear-resistant, non-slip, and easy to maintain; medical furniture and hardware should be durable and free from harmful gas emissions.
Medical furniture panels must comply with relevant national standards, and high-quality medical furniture mostly use E1 or even E0 panels. The E0 and E1 levels are the concept of the quality of furniture panels. The quality level of the panels is determined according to the amount of formaldehyde emission limit. The level of formaldehyde limit in the panels is divided into three levels, namely E2 ≤ 5.0 ㎎ /L, E1 ≤ 1.5 ㎎ /L , E0 ≤ 0.5㎎ /L. Among the current environmental protection standards for furniture panels, panels that meet the E2 standard are environmentally friendly panels, namely E2, E1 and E0 panels. Among the professional panels, there are many materials that are very suitable for hospital furniture, such as ecological resin panels, which can be recycled, burn non-toxic, non-corrosive smoke, drop-free, non-formaldehyde, non-toxic, meet FDA standards, and have The characteristics of impact resistance, heat resistance, stain resistance, abrasion resistance, high hardness and good self-cleaning properties can solve various needs in hospital operation.
Good board substrates are only part of environmentally friendly medical furniture. Adhesives, glues and medical furniture paint are the key factors that give them wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, waterproof, fire-resistant, and beautiful properties, but so are adhesives, glues, paints, etc. An important source of volatile harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene.
Excellent furniture manufacturers will produce green and environmentally friendly medical furniture without losing functionality and beauty. For example, in the construction process, natural wood-based laminates are used, which basically do not contain any adhesives. Green urea composite glue is used. Urea plays the role of condensing free formaldehyde in the glue. The resin glue is pure natural and harmless. Use these materials It can minimize the harm of formaldehyde to the human body. Using water-based furniture coatings, the raw material of the clear resin uses the latest elastic polyurethane research and development technology and matte orientation arrangement technology to balance hardness and flexibility, lighter odor, more uniform gloss, scratch resistance, net aldehyde, no benzene, and recoatability Good, yellowing resistance, easy construction characteristics.
