How to prevent wood from "dehydration"

Once the temperature and humidity in the room change greatly, some wood products will have problems such as cracking, warping and deformation. Most of these quality problems are due to the moisture content of wood products.

Whether it is solid wood or artificial board, all wood products contain a certain amount of moisture. Many consumers think that the dryer the wood, the better. In fact, this view is biased. {TodayHot} The moisture content of the wood is stable only within the normal range to ensure that the decoration does not suffer from quality problems. For wood materials used in general households, the moisture content should be around 8%. If the moisture content is too high or too low, it will cause quality problems in the wood in the home decoration.

In order to keep the moisture content of the wood stable, you should pay attention to the following points in the decoration:

1, use artificial boards

The texture properties of various artificial boards are much more stable than solid wood materials. Since the solid wood material has texture, when the temperature and humidity change greatly, cracking, warping and deformation will inevitably occur. The wood-based panel is used to break down the wood into wood chips or wood pulp, and then re-form the wood. Because the original physical structure of the wood is broken, the "deformation" of the artificial board is much smaller than that of the solid wood when the temperature and humidity change greatly. {HotTag}

2, construction attention to details

In the home decoration, the key to the quality of the wood is the construction, especially the details: after all the wood products are installed, they should be painted once. This layer of paint, called "top coat", not only protects wood products, but also protects against moisture and maintains the normal moisture content of the wood; it cannot be drenched in the binder. At present, in the home decoration, white latex is generally used as a binder for wood products. Some workers exchange water in white latex in order to cut corners. This not only reduces the strength of the binder, but also causes quality problems when the wood product absorbs moisture; all wood is placed for a few days. After you buy the wood for decoration, it is best to put it in the decoration site for a few days before using it. The purpose of this is to make the moisture content of the wood close to the level of the new home.

3, be careful when purchasing materials

When you purchase wood for decoration, it is impossible to determine the moisture content of the wood by eye or hand touch. Therefore, some people lamented: If only by visual inspection, the moisture content of wood can be described as "the fairy is difficult to distinguish." In fact, there are some tips to help you determine if the moisture content of the wood is acceptable. Generally, the characteristics of dry wood are obvious, the weight is obviously reduced, the hand feel is not cool, the tapping is crisp, the “squeaky” sounds when the planer is pushed, the shavings are heated, and the surface is light. The wood with high water content is heavier, feels cold, and is not brittle when pushing the plane, even shaving. This type of wood cannot be used.
