Do you understand the core material of the board?

For first-time homebuyers of building materials, these questions are common: "What is Malacca wood?", "Is cedar or poplar wood better?", "How do I choose the right wood?"

Today, I'm going to give you a basic overview of board substrates, hoping it will be helpful when you buy building materials.

As we all know, plywood is made from trees through processing. Common plywood often uses cedar, poplar, or Malacca wood, so we often hear terms like cedar plywood, poplar plywood, and Malacca plywood.

Understanding the characteristics of core materials helps us make better selections for boards. Next, we will explain the properties of cedar core, poplar core, and Malacca core.

Cedar core:

1. Natural wood: It has a natural wood fragrance and many beneficial effects on the human body! Moreover, the cedarwood alcohol particles contained in cedar furniture can kill bacteria and inhibit human viruses and bacteria, and have an inhibitory effect on various skin inflammations; it also has health benefits such as relieving fatigue and stress! It is relatively environmentally friendly and also has a special fragrance.

2. Selecting quality materials: During its growth process, the growth rate is very slow, and the longer the growth time of the wood, the better its quality.

3. No additives: Furniture made of cedar wood generally does not contain any additives, which allows the original color to be fully displayed. Therefore, cedar wood furniture looks very natural and harmonious.

4. Uniform color: Cedar wood furniture has very beautiful lines and a very uniform color distribution. Both the material and the texture are excellent. Cedar wood is tough and lightweight, making it the first choice for furniture making.

Yang Muxin:

1. Superior properties: High strength, lightweight, good elasticity and toughness.

2. High compressive strength: excellent nail-holding ability and high compressive strength.

3. Mild odor

4. Easy to process: It is easy to cut without breaking, and the seams are tight without unevenness.

5. Economical and practical: The price is relatively economical, belonging to the economical and practical type of board. It has a wide range of uses, a smooth surface, and is not easily deformed.

Malacca Core:

1. Good processing performance: Malacca core board can be made into different shapes according to user needs, and its tensile and compressive strength is better than that of ordinary solid wood materials.

2. It has properties such as corrosion resistance and acid and alkali resistance: It has properties such as corrosion resistance, flame retardancy, fire resistance, insect resistance, scratch resistance, and acid and alkali resistance.

3. Lightweight: Malacca deck material is lighter than ordinary boards, so it has a great advantage in transportation and handling.

4. Not easily deformed or cracked: It has the characteristics of not deforming or cracking. Due to the relatively hard material, it is easy to shape during processing.

5. Insect resistance: Malacca board is often used to make furniture such as closets and wardrobes. This type of board is not easy to get damp, so it has good insect resistance.
