German scientists say that energy-saving lamps will cause cancer

The British Daily Express website cited an independent research report conducted in Germany that German scientists discovered that CFL energy-saving light bulbs emit a variety of carcinogenic chemicals, including phenol (Phenol) during use, in addition to the mercury-containing component. , And will release naphthalene and styrene two kinds of toxins through the heat and steam generated during the lighting process. German scientists called on people to stop using it.

Phenol is a chemical raw material and is often used as a solvent for the manufacturing industry. According to Ming Pao, cited by Zheng Liming, an associate professor in the Department of Electronic Engineering at City University of Hong Kong, manufacturers must make mercury and other light-emitting substances firmly coated on the glass surface of the crucible. Mercury must be mixed with a solvent before it can be applied. Therefore, if the solvent Contains phenolic components that are not completely evaporated during the manufacturing process and may remain in the lamp bulb.

The German scientist who conducted the study suggested that the use of energy-saving lamps should be deactivated or minimized. In particular, the head should not be approached. For example, do not use energy-saving lamps as children's nightlights, or adults read headlights before going to bed. And close contact with energy-saving lamps will increase the risk of cancer.

However, the British environmental authority still insists that the energy-saving lamps are safe, but the British government also reminds the public that if they accidentally break down the battery, they should keep the indoor air flowing for at least 15 minutes. They should wear plastic gloves when cleaning debris, and they should use plastic. The bag seals are discarded.

The Hong Kong Environmental Protection Agency said that it would understand the relevant report, but it did not tell whether it would test the energy-saving lamps on the market.

China has also begun to promote the use of energy-saving lamps since 2008. It has now become the largest producer of energy-saving lamps. Energy-saving lamps produced in ancient towns in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province account for more than 90% of global production. However, the good and the bad products also cause public concern, poor quality of energy-saving lamps harmful substances beyond the standard, likely to cause cancer.

According to Wang Chaohu, assistant secretary-general of China Consumers Association and director of the China Consumers Association, in the past five years, more than 200 brands of energy-saving lamps have been tested on the market, and only nine brands have been tested for three consecutive times.
