It’s no secret that PVC plastic windows are very popular today. Thanks to this kind of windows, the external facades of houses acquire an aesthetic look, the apartments become warm and comfortable. Due to special anti-bribute nets, we forget about annoying insects in the summer period. It would seem solid pluses, but as elsewhere, when installing plastic windows, there is its own but…It stops people leading a healthy lifestyle (healthy lifestyle). Recently, there has been an opinion that the windows made of PVC plastic can apply an irreparable appearance to the health of the inhabitants of the house. In this article we will try to figure out whether it is really. To do this, we need to find out what components are part of modern plastic windows.
1. Gas -shaped ethylene and oil products
2. Sodium salt or chloride
Plastic profile, which we are used to see, it turns out just when the interaction of these substances. It is especially scary for the inhabitants that lead is used as a stabilizer of this interaction. For people who are far from science – the presence of any chemical (non -natural) element inevitably means the harm. But here I would like to clarify some details. Any chemical and their compounds have different properties. For example, lead, which is used in creating the PVC profile in this case, is completely harmless. As a result of interaction, it does not evaporate into the environment and is not dangerous for health in contact with the human body. The same applies to the first two components. Salt is a product that we eat daily. Oil products and gases are obtained in special conditions using such a reaction that completely cleanses them of harmful substances. Special skeptics, recall that PVC plastic is quite universal. It is used not only to create window profiles, but also for the manufacture of children’s toys, in medicine, in household appliances.
Another erroneous statement that when using a plastic profile emits a harmful substance into the atmosphere – dioxide. Dioxide is really harmful to health, but according to PVC research, it can distinguish it only when heated to a temperature of 2300C. We don’t think that once in your apartment there will be such heat. Therefore, feel free to discard all doubts. In this case, rumors about the dangers of windows from the PVC profile have no reason. But the appearance and good properties can please you and make your home warmer and more comfortable.
