| Summary: | (Polyethylene glycol) mixture. Leachability performance of adequate protection when wood is used in ground contact against insects and fungi, low mammalian toxicity, low as wood preservatives including a broad spectrum of activity because of its leaching problem. This research examined the biological test method were determined. The type of soil Boron preservatives have several advantages for application colorless, odorless and non-corrosive and nonflammable with different concentrations of borax/boric acid and PEG effect on the soil-block test was determined. It was found favorable effects on wood's fire resistance. Boron treatment However, boron treatment by itself has not been found to give indicated by the ASTM standards. The results found in this Lentinus lepideus and Poria monticola fungi and toxic of in the wood preservation industry. of wood provides excellent protection for aidoveground uses. on the basis of waterholding capacity, pH, and weight as potential for decreasing the leachability of boron preservatives using water repellents. Southern pine (Pinus research will serve their purpose as far as they are made use resistance to boron leaching. Protection performance of these showed a significant increase in their water repellency and soil-block and agar-block test methods. Weight loss by spp.) test samples were impregnated with several types and at that it does not appear to be sufficient to choose soils only the 1930s, primarily in various boric acid/borax mixtures. The use of boron in wood preservatives has been growing since these treating solutions was determined. It was found that threshold retention point for each treatment solution and treated with PEG-400 or PEG-600 by double treatment method treating solutions on native wood was also determined by volatility, and cost effectiveness. In addition, they are wood samples treated with boric acid or borax and then |
