Residential Treated Wood
Products
Most wood products can be attacked and
degraded by many different organisms. These include decay fungi that degrade
wood in ground contact or wood that is frequently wetted, termites and other
insects, and marine borers that attack wood in salt or brackish waters in
Residential and commercial outdoor furniture.
To prevent biodeterioration, non-durable wood
products are treated with biocides. The heartwood of tree species such as
redwood, cedar, and baldcypress are naturally durable and do not require
preservative treatments for some above-ground applications but harvesting
restrictions are expected to greatly limit their future availability.
Preservative solution for home outdoor
furniture:
Most solid wood products are treated by a
pressure process where the wood product is first dried and impregnated with
a preservative solution in a pressure-treating cylinder.
Wood composites are either treated during or
after production. The latter includes plywood and laminated veneer lumber
that is treated much as solid lumber. For the former wood composites, such
as fiber or flake products, a solid or liquid biocide such as zinc borate is
added directly to the wood furnish prior to mat formation. Millwork is often
treated by dipping, spraying or brushing with a biocide solution.
Methods exist to protect contemporary outdoor furniture:
Some nonbiocidal methods exist to protect wood against biodegradation.
Heat-treated lumber has had some commercial success in Europe where the
treatment provides some protection against decay fungi and the wood has
increased dimensional stability, but it is not suitable for ground-contact
applications and has greatly reduced strength properties.
Ways to obtained the Retro outdoor
furniture:
Chemically-modified wood, such as obtained by
acetylation, can provide good deterioration resistance and dimensional
stability. An acetylation plant is being built in Europe. Water repellents,
either alone or combined with a wood preservative, are also becoming more
important for Retro outdoor furniture.
Due to environmental considerations, public concerns over biocides and
governmental regulations, wood preservation is expected to continue to
undergo rapid and profound changes on a worldwide basis. This is especially
true with treated wood products for the residential market.
