Subterranean Termite Resistance of Polystyrene-Treated Wood from Three Tropical Wood Species
The objective of this work was to investigate the resistance of three Indonesian wood species to termite attack. Samples from sengon (Falcataria moluccana), mangium (Acacia mangium), and pine (Pinus merkusii) were treated with polystyrene at loading levels of 26.0%, 8.6%, and 7.7%, respectively. Treated and untreated samples were exposed to environmental conditions in the field for 3 months. Un...
متن کاملTermite Resistance of MDF Panels Treated with Various Boron Compounds
In this study, the effects of various boron compounds on the termite resistance of MDF panels were evaluated. Either borax (BX), boric acid (BA), zinc borate (ZB), or sodium perborate tetrahydrate (SPT) were added to urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin at target contents of 1%, 1.5%, 2% and 2.5% based on dry fiber weight. The panels were then manufactured using 12% urea-formaldehyde resin and 1% NH(4)...

The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the toxicity to termites and the leaching stability of copper compounds derived from triand dioctylamineboric acid complexes for protecting wood against termite at tack . Water inso luble copper Nmethyldioctylamine or copper N-dioctylamine and copper borate were precipitated in wood by the reaction of N-methyldioctylamine or N-dioctylamine-bor...
متن کاملPerformance Characterization of Coatings on Treated-wood
Coating performance is greatly influenced by the properties of the wood substrate. This study was focused on evaluating the performance of coatings on both preservative- and thermally-treated wood. A number of commercially formulated semi-transparent stains Alkyd, Alkyd-Acrylic and PU were applied on four different types of preservative treated and heat-treated wood and their performances were ...
