As we all know, wooden furniture is divided into solid wood furniture and panel furniture according to the material composition. Among them, panel furniture refers to disassembled modular furniture with wood-based panels as the main substrate and plate as the basic structure, because of its plasticity. The advantages of lower prices are favored by consumers. But nowadays there are more and more kinds of artificial plates, and the names are also varied. As ordinary consumers, it is not easy to find them without the guidance of professionals. It is even harder to choose a set of satisfactory plate furniture. It is.
We are familiar with the names of wood-based panels such as particleboard, fiberboard, and blockboard, but what are they? After interviews, the reporter found that most of the consumers who come to the furniture market to choose furniture have some understanding of these kinds of plates, but they are not accurate enough. The main reason is that the misleading and false propaganda of the sales staff lead consumers to understand the various plates. Into the wrong zone.
Myth 1: Particleboard is more environmentally friendly than MDF
At present, the plates of panel furniture are mostly made of particleboard and medium density board. Since both kinds of boards are made of wood and pulverized and then mixed with adhesive, the amount of glue determines the chemical composition, that is, its environmental protection degree. . Most consumers are very concerned about which of the two plates is more environmentally friendly. As a result, many salespeople tend to mislead consumers when they market their products.
A furniture salesperson told reporters when introducing the product: "Our plates are all solid wood particleboards in the northeast. You see, how big is the granules, and the glue used is less, can it be the same as the MDF glued with glue?" Their MDF is much more environmentally friendly! "Is this really the case? The experts of the China Furniture Association told the reporter: "The qualified, that is, the environmental protection of MDF and particleboard that meet the national standards is the same. There is no more environmentally friendly statement. â€
Usually, the so-called MDF refers to medium density board, also called medium density fiber. It is made of wood or plant fiber by mechanical separation and chemical treatment, mixed with adhesive and waterproofing agent, and then paved, molded and made by high temperature and high pressure. An artificial board having a relatively uniform density and a mechanical property close to wood is an artificial board which is currently popular in the world. The difference between particleboard and MDF is that the raw material of the particleboard is not completely pulverized into fibers, but is pulverized into granules, which is generally called shavings, and then added with rubber. The MDF is completely made of wood raw materials. It is pulverized into a fiber and then added by a rubber. The density of the particleboard is similar to that of the medium-density fiberboard. However, since the particleboard is pressed by the shaving material and added to the adhesive, the density is uneven, the middle is low, and the two ends are high, so the holding force is lower than that of the medium-density fiberboard. Moreover, the surface of the MDF is relatively fine, and the flatness is higher than that of the particle board. However, particleboard is better in terms of moisture absorption and moisture resistance than medium density board, and the price is relatively low. Therefore, it can be said that qualified MDF and particleboard are only functionally different, and no one is more environmentally friendly.

Myth 2: Blockboard is solid wood board
The blockboard is also called a large core board. The logs are cut into strips, spliced ​​into a core, and the outer surface material is processed. Because the main materials are solid wood, many sales people will introduce environmentally friendly plates. In fact, the large core plates are artificial boards with adhesives.
Misunderstanding 3: Solid wood particle board is a "new environmentally friendly product"
Since many types of indoor pollution cases have been caused by the use of plate-type furniture made of medium-density boards and particleboards that have not met the national standards, the reputation of these two types of boards is not very good. Therefore, many sales people have given new names to these two types of boards. Name, misleading consumers. The most common name is called MDF, which is called particle board. Some sales people will add the word "solid wood" in front of them to indicate that they are "natural, environmentally friendly" products. When consumers carefully question the difference between solid wood particle board and solid wood, the sales staff is vague, and they do not recognize their true identity: "The solid wood particle board is the solid wood pellets, and it is definitely different from the solid wood. Oh! But, look at this price, the same environmentally friendly things, can solid wood furniture be so cheap?" If consumers go all the way, they will meet seven or eight sales people to say so, can not faint!
Misunderstanding 4: Trimeric hydrogen ammonia plate is medium density board
Many sales people will tell you that they are using a trimeric hydrogen ammonia plate when introducing their products. When the reporter further asked what the tripolyhydrogen ammonia plate is, he was told: "The trimeric hydrogen ammonia plate is the MDF. Under the misleading of sales personnel, consumers generally believe that the trimeric hydrogen ammonia plate is a medium density board. Conversely, the medium density board is a trimeric hydrogen ammonia board. In fact, the sheet is a paper printed with color or wood grain, which is immersed in a melamine transparent resin and then heat-pressed on the surface of the substrate. After the melamine resin is cured, the veneer has good physical properties such as abrasion resistance and scratch resistance, and has certain resistance to open flame. The plates made of this material are called tripolyhydrogen ammonia plates, and the substrates are different. MDF and particleboard can be made into tripolyhydrogen ammonia plates.
However, the misinformation of the merchants can only be temporary, no matter what kind of lies will be debunked. Therefore, when selling their own products, merchants should not always be able to turn on the plates, because the plates used in the panel furniture, as long as they are qualified by the state inspection, have no harm to human health, no matter what it is called, Consumers will not mind what materials are composed. On the other hand, if the performance of the board and the degree of environmental protection are exaggerated, once it is debunked, it will leave a bad impression on the consumer and the trust of the mall or brand will be lower and lower.
