Wooden materials are used in the courtyard design of many private villas, among which anti-corrosion wood is the most common, such as anti-corrosion wood floors, anti-corrosion wood pavilions, anti-corrosion wood fences and anti-corrosion wood corridors. Although anti-corrosion wood has anti-corrosion in its name, anti-corrosion wood certainly cannot be anti-corrosion all the time. So how long can anti-corrosion wood be used? How to choose anti-corrosion wood?
Before understanding the service life of anti-corrosion wood, let’s first understand some of the characteristics of anti-corrosion wood. Wood has the property of thermal expansion and contraction, but ordinary wood cannot withstand the wind and sun in the villa courtyard, so the anti-corrosion wood has been treated with special techniques and some unique materials have been added to make the wood become Anti-corrosion, it can also withstand wind, rain and erosion by insects and ants. Even if there are large temperature differences throughout the year, antiseptic wood will remain calm.
The service life of preservative wood is determined by the amount and degree of penetration of the preservative in the wood, which depends on the wood's ability to absorb liquid. Before adding preservatives to preservative wood, the moisture content should be lower than 13, otherwise the wood cannot fully absorb the preservatives. The preservatives used by different manufacturers may be different, and the processes may also be different. The degree of antisepsis and service life of antiseptic wood will certainly not be the same. Moreover, some manufacturers will cut corners and change the wood drying method to air drying. In this way, the surface of the wood is dry, but the inside is not dry. The preservative cannot be fully absorbed, and the anti-corrosion wood will rot easily. Generally speaking, good quality anti-corrosion wood can be used for about 30 years. However, it is possible that if it is a very poor quality anti-corrosion wood that is not anti-corrosion at all or will break down after just a few days of use. So don’t choose anti-corrosion wood just because you think that anti-corrosion wood has better performance than ordinary wood. It is also incorrect to think that antiseptic wood can definitely be antiseptic.
So how should we choose the antiseptic wood that suits us? First of all, we can choose according to the environment of the villa courtyard. If your courtyard environment is not very humid, you can choose anti-corrosion wood of general quality. It is better to choose high quality. However, if your yard is often damp, you must choose high-quality anti-corrosion wood to ensure the service life of the anti-corrosion wood products.
There are three types of antiseptic wood commonly used in villa courtyards: Scotch pine, Finnish wood and pineapple grid. For general courtyard environments, just choose Pinus sylvestris. Pinus sylvestris is treated with CCA chemicals. If antiseptic wood products are located near a humid place, it is best to choose Finnish wood. Finnish wood is treated with ACQ agent. Its antiseptic performance is better than that of Scotch pine, and its price is also higher than that of Scotch pine. Among the three types of antiseptic wood, pineapple grid has the best performance, but pineapple grid is also the most expensive. The price of domestic anti-corrosion wood is relatively cheap, but the price of imported anti-corrosion wood from Brazil is unexpected just for the raw wood. After treatment, the price is even higher, but their wood has good density and better quality. The choice of anti-corrosion wood is best based on comprehensive considerations such as the courtyard environment, the placement of anti-corrosion wood products, and economic conditions, so that you can choose the anti-corrosion wood that is most suitable for your own yard.
When choosing anti-corrosion wood materials, you should choose a standardized business, and it is best to provide some proof of quality testing. For the production of anti-corrosion wood products, it is also necessary to choose a master with good craftsmanship to ensure that the anti-corrosion wood will not be damaged during the installation process.
As long as the quality of the anti-corrosion wood in the courtyard of a private villa is not particularly poor, it can be used for decades. However, the maintenance of the anti-corrosion wood is also very important. Pay attention to the maintenance of the anti-corrosion wood. The anti-corrosion wood can be used more effectively. long.
