Besides being an easy to install and clean material, PVC wallpapers also offer other advantages. Most of these wallpapers are water resistant and durable. They also provide scratch protection, making them popular choices. Moreover, they are also inexpensive.
Although PVC wallpaper is a type of modern home decoration wallpaper, it has a few drawbacks. Firstly, it is a highly toxic material. It is mainly composed of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin and high molecular polymers. It also contains some plasticizers and softeners. These substances can enter the body through the mucous membrane or skin. They can also cause cancer and reproductive problems. In addition, they can damage the environment.
Non-woven wallpaper is a more environmentally friendly alternative to PVC wallpaper. They are manufactured from natural and synthetic fibers. They are lighter and have better ventilation than PVC. They are available in peel and stick and non-pasted applications. They are suitable for bedrooms. They also have sound absorption properties. They are usually used in rooms with a high moisture development. They are less expensive than PVC wallpaper.
Vinyl wallpaper is another popular option for a wall covering. It is made of a vinyl compound and a carrier material. This substrate is often coated with an acrylic coating. This makes the paper easier to wipe clean. The adhesives used in the process are also less harmful than the wet applications. However, the pasting process can be messy. The results are not as long-lasting as other application styles.
Another important advantage of non-woven wallpaper is its ability to absorb sound. This feature makes it ideal for bathrooms and bedrooms. It is available in a variety of textures and patterns, allowing you to choose the one that fits your needs.
Some of the negative aspects of this material include the use of chemicals such as formaldehyde, which is a carcinogen. It can also contain heavy metal stabilizers, which can disrupt the thyroid and cause reproductive problems. In addition, it can contain toxic pastes and volatile organic compounds. The US Environmental Protection Agency defines biocides as a group of diverse poisonous substances. They are designed to control harmful organisms and products. They are often used as disinfectants.
In addition to being less damaging to the environment, non-woven wallpaper is cheaper than PVC wallpaper. It is also more flexible. It can be cut to any size. It can also be painted over, providing you with a wide variety of color options. It is a great choice for a family room. The texture of the product can be textured, smooth or embossed. It is also washable. Compared to other types of wallpaper, it is lightweight and offers good air permeability.
It is also important to look for a breathable surface. This means that the wallpaper will not grow mold under it. If the wallpaper is not breathable, the moisture can penetrate the material and lead to the growth of mould. Luckily, some companies are producing PVC-free wallpaper that is odorless and child-safe.
