2. Analysis of the causes of alkali reversion on the wall
According to recent professional discussions, alkali reversion on walls is mainly due to:
1.Material factors: The alkali content of cement mortar is too high (PH value > 9)
2.environmental factors: Air humidity >70% for more than 48 hours
3.Construction issues: The waterproof layer is not properly processed (accounting for 67% of cases)
4.time factor: 1-2 years after the delivery of a new house is the period of high incidence
| area | incidence | High season |
|---|---|---|
| South China | 78% | March-June |
| East China | 65% | May-September |
| North China | 42% | July-August |

4. Step-by-step processing guide (2023 latest version)
1.diagnostic stage:
• Test with pH test paper (normal value should be <8.5)
• Observe the crystal morphology (needle-shaped crystals require professional treatment)
2.Emergency treatment:
• Wipe with 5% oxalic acid solution (limited to small area)
• Turn on the dehumidifier immediately (maintain humidity <60%)
3.Radical solution:
• Removal to the base (depth ≥ 3mm)
• Apply alkali-resistant primer (Nippon Paint and Dulux professional models are recommended)
• Do a closed water test (no leakage for 48 hours)
5. Hot search list of preventive measures
The top 5 prevention methods that have attracted the most attention recently:
1. Do alkaline testing when accepting new homes (search volume +320%)
2. Use mildew-proof and water-resistant putty (Tik Tok tutorial has over 10 million views)
3. Install a wall respirator (top 3 in Xiaohongshu’s grass planting volume)
4. Apply protective coating every year before the rainy season (Baidu Index rose 215%)
5. Choose new materials such as microcement (top of Zhihu’s professional recommendation list)
6. Special reminder from experts
According to the latest tips from the China Building Decoration Association:
• Starting from 2023, new residential buildings must comply with the "JGJ/T 304-2023" alkali prevention standards
• If you deal with an area of more than 2㎡ by yourself, you need to report the property
• Be careful with strong acid cleaning (may corrode steel bars)
Through the above structured solutions, combined with current hot topics, we hope to help you effectively solve the problem of alkali reversion on the wall. It is recommended to choose a suitable treatment plan according to the specific situation. In serious cases, be sure to consult a professional agency.
