Can the aromatherapy diffuser be used as a humidifier?
The aromatherapy machine can be used as a humidifier, but generally the power of the aromatherapy machine is relatively small, and the atomized molecules are very fine, which can only play a humidifying effect in a small range such as a desk.
The humidifier is best not to be used as an aromatherapy machine, because the ingredients of the aromatherapy oil are mixtures of esters, alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, etc., which are similar to each other and soluble in plastics and rubber. The material and the atomizing sheet will be tested, and the humidifier water tank is not resistant to corrosion by essential oils.
The difference between aromatherapy machine and humidifier:
1. Function
Aromatherapy machine: Ultrasonic aromatherapy machine is specially designed for essential oil users. Pure plant essential oil and purified water can be added to the cavity. After adding essential oils, it can not only increase the humidity of the air, but also emit aroma molecules. Depending on the composition of essential oils, they can play different roles.
Humidifier: The main function of the humidifier is to humidify, only fresh water can be added, and some product structures have limitations on water quality due to water level design issues.
2. Material
Aromatherapy machine: Since most of the pure plant essential oils are acidic, it is easy to produce certain corrosiveness to ordinary plastic containers. Therefore, most of the aromatherapy machines are made of PP. The chips, wafer spoons, and atomizing tablets of the aromatherapy machine are specially developed for essential oils, and they are resistant to oil, water, and chemical corrosion. Therefore, dropping essential oils in the aromatherapy machine can thoroughly use every drop of aromatherapy essence, and very quickly distribute extremely delicate aroma molecules to every corner. It is safe to use.
Humidifier: The ordinary humidifier uses ABS or AS plastic material as the water tank. The main medium is water, which is not resistant to the corrosion of essential oils. Long-term use will cause the water tank to be corroded, causing rupture. It may also produce toxic gas released into the air, affecting Healthy body.
3.Water tank
Humidifier: The humidifier basically has a water tank design. The internal design of the water chamber is complicated. It is easy to produce scale after long-term use and it is difficult to clean.
4. Fog volume
Humidifier: The main function of the humidifier is to use humidification. Usually, the atomizing tablets with a diameter of 20~25mm are used. The generated particles are large and heavy, and the amount of mist is thick. The residence time of the water mist particles in the air is very short and Not far away.
5. Different shock technologies
Aromatherapy machine: The ultrasonic vibration technology used by the aromatherapy machine can atomize water molecules to the nanometer level, which can effectively disperse the aromatherapy essential oil into the air and make us bathe in the fragrant air.
6. Different cleaning methods
Aromatherapy machine: The water tank of the aromatherapy machine is treated by a special treatment process, which is very convenient to use and clean.
