Whether The Rubber Particles Filled In The Artificial Turf Football Field Are Harmful

We all know that the artificial turf of the football field in order to achieve its athletic performance, increase the surface elasticity of the lawn and reduce sports injuries, and in order to keep the grass erect, it must be filled with rubber particles. Previously, it had set off a "toxic track" in the country, and its raw materials were rubber pellets. So is the rubber particle harmful?

 

In view of the increasing popularity of artificial turf football stadiums around the world, people pay more attention to site safety and put forward higher requirements. The United Nations Environment Agency of France has conducted a multi-party experiment on the extraction of rubber particles from waste tires to verify whether it will cause environmental pollution and human health.

 

The experiment was directed to an artificial turf football pitch that was filled with rubber particles. The first is to test the infiltration and discharge of water through the site to determine whether it will have adverse effects on the environment. The second is to detect and analyze the air components above and around the site, especially for the rubber particles filled. Gas is detected.


At the same time, in order to improve the credibility and comprehensiveness of the test data, the conclusion that the rubber particles are harmful is more convincing. The experimenter selected three kinds of rubber particles commonly used in the market as experimental samples and filled them into three identical pieces. Among the artificial turf, it is placed in a different environment, the artificial turf football field that is normally used, and the artificial turf with unfilled particles is placed at the same time as a comparison.

 

In the end, the proposition that the rubber particles filled in the artificial turf football field is harmful is tested and proved that the rubber particles do not pollute the environment and cause harm to the human body. The first is water discharged from artificial turf filled with rubber granules, the water quality is not affected, it is safe for the environment; secondly, it is distributed from artificial turf and rubber granules indoors or outdoors. The gas will not cause damage to the human body.

 

Even the rubber granules produced by the recycling of used tires can be safely used. Artificial turf is harmless, and the rubber granules it fills are also harmless. It is suitable for paving all kinds of football fields such as schools, clubs, street corners, indoor and outdoor, but it must be emphasized that the premise of harmlessness is quality. Must be strictly controlled.
