T/SDTL 03-2021 The limit of harmful substances in architectural water-based art paints
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the requirements for the allowable limits of harmful substances in water-based art coatings for buildings that are harmful to human health and the environment, as well as testing methods, inspection rules, and packaging labels. This document applies to architectural decorative coatings formulated with synthetic resin emulsions or inorganic binders as base materials, along with pigments, fillers, and various additives, which are designed to achieve specific surface artistic effects on wall surfaces. Main technical content: 3.1 Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) Content: Comparing with international standards, the VOC limits in Chinese standards are more lenient. Due to the complex construction process of water-based art coatings for buildings and their widespread use in daily life, combined with the development characteristics of art coatings in Shunde District, the requirements of GB 18582 are set as follows: - Interior walls: ≤50 g/L - Exterior walls: ≤80 g/L 3.2 Total Benzene Content (Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylene (including Ethylbenzene)/mg/kg): Based on experimental data, this standard strictly requires the total benzene content (toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (including ethylbenzene)) in water-based art coatings for interior walls to be ≤100 mg/kg. 3.3 Formaldehyde Content: Formaldehyde poses a high risk to human health. Based on experimental data, this standard strictly requires the formaldehyde content in water-based art coatings for interior walls to be ≤50 mg/kg. 3.4 Total Ether Ethers and Ether Esters Content: Based on experimental data, this standard strictly limits the total content of ether ethers and ether esters in water-based art coatings to ≤80 mg/kg. 3.5 APEO Labeling Working Group conducted tests on art coatings in the market. This standard sets the limit for alkylphenol polyethylene oxide (APEO) to ≤500 mg/kg, and the testing method follows the US EPA standard method. 3.6 Heavy Me
