什么是甲醛?
Formaldehyde is a colorless, flammable gas at roomtemperature and has a strong odor. Exposure to formaldehyde may cause adverse health effects.
甲醛在室温下是无色易燃气体,具有强烈的气味。接触甲醛可能会对健康造成不良影响。
Whereformaldehyde is found
哪里有甲醛
Formaldehyde is found in:
甲醛存在于以下地方:
· Resins used in the manufacture of composite woodproducts (i.e., hardwood plywood, particleboard andmedium-density fiberboard)
· 用于制造复合木制品的树脂(即硬木胶合板,刨花板和中密度纤维板)
· Building materials and insulation
· 建筑材料和绝缘材料
· Household products such as glues, permanent pressfabrics, paints and coatings, lacquers and finishes, and paper products
· 家用产品,如胶水,永久压缩织物,油漆和涂料,清漆和饰面,以及纸制品
· Preservatives used in some medicines, cosmetics and otherconsumer products such as dishwashing liquids and fabric softeners
· 某些药品,化妆品和其他消费品中使用的防腐剂,如洗碗液和织物柔软剂

How youcan be exposed to formaldehyde
怎样会接触到甲醛
The primary way you can be exposed to formaldehyde is bybreathing air containing off-gassed formaldehyde. Everyone is exposed to smallamounts of formaldehyde in the air that has off-gassed from products, includingcomposite wood products.
接触甲醛的主要方法是呼吸含有甲醛释放的空气。每个人都暴露在有少量甲醛释放的空气中,包括复合木制品。
What EPA is doing to protect against formaldehyde exposures
EPA正在采取哪些措施来防止甲醛暴露
· We finalized a regulation to set limits onhow much formaldehyde can be released from composite wood products andestablish a program in which independent certifying organizations will verifythat composite wood panel producers are complying with the limits onformaldehyde releases
· 我们最终制定了一项法规,对复合木制品中甲醛的释放量进行限制,并建立一个独立认证机构将验证复合木板生产商是否遵守甲醛释放限制的计划
· We are implementing and enforcing otherstatutes that pertain to formaldehyde
· 我们正在实施和执行与甲醛有关的其他法规
· We conduct research torefine our understanding of what levels of exposure might affect human health
· 我们进行研究以提高我们对暴露水平可能影响人类健康的理解
