Plums ripen and fall from the branches by the window; bamboo shoots emerge from the grove beneath the wall.
The continuous rain made us unaware that spring had passed; only when the sun shone did we realize how deep summer had become.
-Fan Chengda, "Joyful Clear Weather"
The term "plum rain season" is probably familiar to everyone. Every year around this time, the sky is overcast for days on end, with continuous rainfall. The rain can be heavy or light, affecting our travel and daily life. Indoor spaces may experience dampness and condensation. Those with wooden furniture should take note!
What impact might the rainy season have on wooden furniture?
1. Prone to deformation and decay
During the rainy season, indoor and outdoor humidity is high. Wooden furniture is in a damp environment for a long time, and the moisture absorbed from the air cannot be released, causing it to swell and deform. Over time, this will lead to the furniture rotting.
2. Prone to mold growth
Fungal hyphae can penetrate the wood panels, creating tiny pores. This increases the furniture's permeability and moisture absorption, and under the influence of warm air, it accelerates mold growth, leading to mildew.
Failure to take precautions during the rainy season can not only affect the aesthetics of interior decoration but also accelerate the lifespan of building materials. So how can we avoid these situations?
First, choose a suitable time to open windows for ventilation to maintain indoor humidity balance, such as in the afternoon or evening to accelerate moisture evaporation. Second, you can choose the dehumidification function of the air conditioner, which can reduce indoor humidity while cooling the room. Also, avoid wiping wooden furniture with a damp cloth to ensure the wood itself is dry. Alternatively, you can choose to use boards with low water absorption and expansion rates to avoid the above problems.
Actually, the key to preventing dampness during the rainy season lies in the choice of building materials during renovation. Today, Zhoubao recommends a type of building material-OSB solid wood veneer board.
Because it...
OSB, short for Oriented Strand Board, has a three-layer structure where the surface layer of wood chips is arranged longitudinally and the core layer is arranged transversely. This interlaced arrangement restructures the wood grain, completely eliminating the influence of internal stress on processing and giving it exceptional workability and moisture resistance.
Ultra-high strength, sturdy and durable
It is made by selecting high-quality wood chips, applying adhesive, and then laying them in a directional manner. The core layer is arranged horizontally, contains a large number of long wood fibers, has a small expansion coefficient, and has good impact resistance.
Formaldehyde-free. Environmentally friendly and safe.
As a health guardian for environmentally friendly furniture, this product uses formaldehyde-free MDI adhesive, making it environmentally friendly and safe.
Low water absorption and swelling rate
MDI adhesive is not easily soluble in water, and pine core material is highly flexible and has a low expansion rate. During the hot-pressing process, the MDI adhesive reacts chemically with water molecules in the wood, effectively preventing moisture from penetrating the core material.
Health and safety
During the production and processing, the wood undergoes high-temperature and high-pressure treatment, which can effectively kill parasites, fungi, and decay fungi in the wood.
Wide range of applications
It can be widely used in building structural materials, building decoration materials, interior furniture, packaging boxes, train carriages, etc. The surface can be directly coated with varnish, paint, or decorative panels, making it convenient and easy to use.
