As one of the important links in the surface treatment of aluminum products, sealing additive agent plays a key role in improving product quality and performance. However, with the increasing concern about health and safety, the question of whether sealing additive agent is harmful to human health has attracted much attention.

Today, we will explore the impact of sealing agent on human health in depth, and provide consumers and the industry with a comprehensive understanding and scientific answers.

1. Composition and use of sealing additive agent

First, let's take a look at the composition and use of sealing additive agent in the surface treatment of aluminum products. Sealing additive agent is usually composed of a variety of chemical components, including polymers, organic solvents, additives, etc. It is mainly used to fill the micropores and micro cracks of the oxide layer on the surface of aluminum products, enhance the density and corrosion resistance of the oxide layer, and improve the corrosion resistance and surface quality of the product.

2. Safety assessment of sealing agent

In response to the safety issues of sealing additive agent, relevant institutions and industry organizations in various countries have conducted strict assessments and supervision. According to the research and evaluation of institutions such as the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), sealing additive agent generally does not cause significant harm to human health under normal use conditions.

However, the safety of sealing additive agents still needs to be evaluated based on the specific ingredients and usage, especially in the case of long-term contact or high-concentration exposure, which may have an impact on human health.

3. Potential health risks of sealing additive agents

Although sealing additive agents generally do not cause obvious harm to human health under normal conditions of use, there are still some potential health risks that need attention:

★ Volatile organic compounds (VOCs): Some sealing additive agents may contain volatile organic compounds. Long-term exposure to high concentrations of volatile organic compounds may have adverse effects on the human respiratory and nervous systems.

★ Allergies and skin irritation: Some people may have allergic reactions or skin irritation to certain ingredients in sealing additive agents, especially for sensitive people.

★ Health risks in the working environment: When producing and processing sealing agents, workers may be exposed to high concentrations of chemicals and need to take corresponding protective measures to protect their health.

4. Recommendations for safe use of sealing agents

To ensure the safe use of sealing additive agents, we make the following recommendations:

● Correct use and storage: Use sealing additive agents correctly according to the product instructions, and keep away from fire and high temperature environments during storage to ensure product safety.

● Strengthen ventilation and personal protection: When handling sealing additive agents, good ventilation conditions should be maintained to avoid long-term exposure to high concentrations of chemicals, and appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and masks, should be worn.

● Regular health monitoring: People who have been engaged in work related to sealing agents for a long time should conduct regular health monitoring, especially for people who are sensitive or allergic.

5. Conclusion

In summary, sealing additive agents generally do not cause obvious harm to human health under normal use conditions, but it is still necessary to pay attention to potential health risks and take corresponding preventive and protective measures. When using sealing agents, consumers and industries should follow the guidance of the product instructions to ensure safe use and protect the health of themselves and others.
