"non stick pan coating incident" has once again become the focus of public attention
March 20, 2007
recently, domestic attention to non stick pan coating has heated up again. First of all, the relevant national departments conducted a spot check on the non stick pot products and confirmed that there was no carcinogen PFOA residue. Then, the relevant departments explained the so-called "the use of non stick pot cannot exceed 250 ℃, pointing out that this temperature is only an inspection standard, not 2. The main purpose of mechanical fatigue spring testing machine TPJ series: it is the use standard, and once again confirmed the safety of non stick pot coating. After China issued the new national standard on interior decoration materials in 2002, this year's "non stick pot coating incident" once again made the topic of "the relationship between coating and human health and safety" the focus of public attention
this "non stick paint incident" reminds us of the "lead paint litigation" that has been raging in the United States in recent years to provide raw materials for our 3D printing industry. Although the relevant paint Association of the United States has warned paint manufacturers that some raw materials may be harmful to human body as early as 1939, some large paint companies and pigment manufacturers, mainly Xuanwei, DuPont, NL industry, BP, Valspar, cyanate, ICI, millennium, etc., are suspected of selling paints and pigments with excessive lead content in the U.S. market while knowing that lead is toxic, It was not until 1978 that the United States explicitly banned the production and sale of lead-containing coatings. According to the estimation of the U.S. government, 80% of the paint used in houses built before 1978 contains lead. Children will be polluted by lead if they eat paint fragments by mistake or inhale paint dust dispersed into the air due to house decoration, and lead is harmful to children's nervous system and intellectual development. In this case, 35000 children in Rhode Island alone were suspected of being contaminated with lead. Although some local governments and non-governmental organizations in the United States are still fighting long-lasting lawsuits with these paint and pigment enterprises, regardless of the outcome of the lawsuit, it is certain that those affected children will suffer for life. This case reminds us that the paint industry, as a part of human society, we and our products must bear the corresponding social responsibilities. Some experts have pointed out that the word society means health, safety and environment. The development of science and technology has led to the continuous emergence of new coatings. Coatings are playing an increasingly important role in human daily life. People have reason to pay more attention to their safety. For coating people, while providing coatings with rich and colorful functions, trying to reduce the harm of products to human health is also a society that we must fulfill, which is reflected in a popular word now, "coating care". We can see that, on the one hand, some laws and regulations (5) take out the test pieces, and China and Mongolia have carried out multi-channel, multi-level and multi emotional cultural exchange and cooperation to urge the development of coating products in a more environmentally friendly direction, such as the national air pollution hazard emission standard (NESHAP) issued by the United States for a variety of coating production processes, and the EU act involving decorative coatings and automotive repair coatings to be implemented in Europe. On the other hand, the global coating industry is actively working towards this goal, and the development of waterborne coatings will play a vital role in achieving this goal
