First, is the diatom mud background wall good?
1, purifying air
Diatom mud has strong physical adsorption performance and ion exchange performance, which can slowly and continuously release negative oxygen ions, effectively decompose harmful carcinogens such as formaldehyde, benzene and radon, purify the air, remove various odors generated by domestic pollution, effectively kill various influenza and infectious diseases in the air, and release negative ions and far infrared rays.
Step 2 Breathe and adjust humidity
When the room is wet, the micropores of diatom mud will absorb and store the water in the air, and release the water when the air is dry. No humidifier, no power supply, no operation, indoor humidity is kept between 40-70 degrees, which is the most comfortable humidity for human body. In addition, it also ensures that quilts and clothes will not get wet and moldy on the wall.
3, long service life
Experts have tested that diatom mud has a service life of at least 20 years, and it does not warp, fall off, fade and resist oxidation, and it is always as good as new. For example, a house with a square meter of 100 needs about 5,000 yuan of latex paint, 10000 yuan of wallpaper and 10000 yuan of diatom mud, but diatom mud is a one-time investment and benefits for life, while latex paint and wallpaper are long-term investments.
4. Sound absorption and noise reduction
Countless micropores in diatom mud can absorb and block the sound volume, and the effect is more than twice that of cement mortar and slate with the same thickness, and the reverberation is shortened by 50%. After working all day, I really want to go home and have a quiet rest. Old people who sleep very lightly want to have a quiet sleep. However, the running sound of cars and motorcycles, the barking sound of pets and the hawking sound of people can't make us feel peaceful. If diatom mud is selected as the indoor wall material, the spread of noise will be greatly reduced.
5, fire and flame retardant
Diatom mud wall material can withstand the high temperature of 1300 degrees, only the melting point has no ignition point, and it will never burn when exposed to open fire and will not produce any toxic smoke. Latex paint and wallpaper are both toxic and flammable materials. When a fire broke out, most of them were choked to death by poisonous fog.
6. Soft colors
Diatom mud has strong light absorption rate, and the reflected light is naturally soft. Soft colors are not easy to make eyes tired and reduce children's myopia rate. Nowadays, children are under great learning pressure, and being stimulated by indoor light while constantly using their eyes will have a great impact on their future vision. Latex paint and wallpaper are all organic materials, and the intense glare and dense mechanical patterns make people see things in a blur.
Second, the use of diatom mud matters needing attention:
1, diatom mud should be waterproof and moisture-proof during storage and transportation. Avoid placing it directly on the wet ground.
2. Before diatom mud construction, do a good job of protecting the existing finished products, and protect the places outside the construction surface with health-preserving materials in advance.
3, diatom mud should be used up as soon as possible after opening, and other ingredients cannot be added. The effective storage period of diatom mud is one year.
Remember to wear a mask when mixing diatom mud materials. When preparing diatom mud materials, clean water should be added in strict accordance with the specified proportion, and the mixture should be fully stirred evenly with an electric mixer to avoid color difference of the finishes. For the base with empty drum or crack, pretreatment must be carried out, and if necessary, the base should be fully oiled or pre-scraped.
The diatom mud background wall is good and the precautions for the use of diatom mud are briefly introduced here. Because diatom mud is more difficult to clean than other materials, it should be cleaned and maintained at ordinary times.
