What's the name of the white paint that paints the walls?
This kind of white paint is actually a kind of water-based paint. Usually, its color is white, but in order to meet people's decorative needs, many color paints have been introduced on the market now. This kind of white paint is actually called latex paint. It is based on synthetic resin emulsion, which is refined by grinding and dispersing and adding various additives. It has the advantages of easy brushing, quick drying, water resistance and good scrubbing resistance, and is widely used in home decoration.
Is the white paint used to paint the wall poisonous?
This kind of white paint contains no harmful substances and is a non-toxic and environmentally friendly product. It is harmless to our health when used. As long as we buy from a regular store, we can rest assured. The performance of latex paint is better than solvent-based paint, because half of its organic solvent is replaced by water, so the toxicity contained in organic solvent is basically completely solved, but not all latex paints are 100% non-toxic and harmless. It is necessary for us to know its environmental protection and inspection certificate when purchasing.
How to choose white paint for wall painting?
1, see inspection report.
If you buy a regular product, there will usually be information such as its product name, net content, composition and corresponding brand trademark on the product packaging. Then we can check the inspection report of latex paint at the time of purchase to find out whether it is qualified for environmental protection. It is suggested to buy latex paint with newer production date as far as possible.
2. Shake it and listen to the sound
This way of buying is relatively simple. We just need to pick up a bucket of products at random, shake it gently with our hands, and then listen to the sound when shaking. Generally speaking, regular brand latex paint is silent when shaken. If there is noise when shaking, it means that the quality of latex paint is poor and the viscosity of latex paint is not enough.
3. Open the can for testing.
If the merchant allows, we can open a new can of products and see if its liquid color is sticky and milky. We can stir it with a stick to see if there are any lumps in it, whether it is even after stirring and whether there is any odor. In addition, we can also stick some latex paint with a brush to see if its drawing is long, continuous and even. If so, it means its quality is better.
