particle board is also called solid wood particle board , which is the cheapest board among all wood boards. It is made by crushing broken wood into fragments of a certain size, adding a large amount of glue and mixing, and pressing under high temperature and high pressure. The particleboard surface is very smooth and flat, with strong hardness, not easy to deform, good processing performance, and low price. It is a kind of artificial board used most in the furniture manufacturing industry. There are three main types of particleboard thickness: 16mm, 18mm, and 25mm.
Characteristics of particle board
2. The surface of the particleboard is usually laminated with hard plastic or solid wood, and formaldehyde can only be released from the seam of the laminated skin. Therefore, the better the edge sealing process, the less formaldehyde will be released from the board.
3. The edge of the particleboard is rough, which is easy to attract water and cause expansion and deformation. Therefore, it is not suitable to be used in places that are often exposed to water, such as furniture substrates, door and window kits.
4. The particle board is made of crushed materials. The whole is relatively soft, so the nail holding power is very poor. It will be very unstable to fix it directly with nails. You need to use rubber pad to fix it or use a three-in-one The screw kit is fastened by a buckle.
5. Because the particle board is artificially made, its size and thickness can be well controlled. The surface texture can also be made very realistic, and the finished board can be used directly without drying. It is very suitable for furniture, but the edge of the board is easy to be toothed when cutting, which requires relatively high production technology and equipment.
How to choose home decoration board?
Solid wood is the best board,It is also the most environmentally friendly type of board, but the better wood has a long growth period, and the recycling cost is relatively high. It can't keep up with people's needs at all, so the price is more expensive. Therefore, it is also a good choice to choose a healthy and environmentally friendly board among artificial boards. The boards can be roughly divided into the following categories.
1. Solid wood particle board
In fact, there is nothing wrong with solid wood particle board. The biggest advantage is that the price is relatively close to the people and the service life is long. The shortcoming is that it contains formaldehyde, and it should be ventilated for a few months after purchase. But don't expect solid wood particle board to be made by crushing logs. Basically, it is made of scraps left over from solid wood furniture, or even recycled waste furniture, after being crushed for secondary processing.
2 There will be obvious seams at the rise, which is not very beautiful, and the firmness is not as strong as the whole piece of wood. However, the solid wood multilayer board is also solid wood, which is considered healthy and environmentally friendly, so the price is not low.
3, density board
density board is also called medium-density fiberboard, which is made of wood or plant-like particles by putting it in water It is made of bonding and pressing, so it also contains a lot of formaldehyde, which is bulky and afraid of moisture. The density board is evenly distributed inside,The nail-holding force is a little worse than that of particleboard, but it is more convenient to process than particleboard, and the edge cutting is not easy to break the teeth, and the production process is not demanding.
4. ecological board
The interior of the ecological board is covered with solid wood strips, and most of the surface is covered with solid wood panels. , And the surface is more beautiful with the addition of finishes. It is the best kind of board besides solid wood.
In short, if you have a sufficient budget, you can use pure solid wood, which is environmentally friendly and durable. If the budget is insufficient, then choose particle board , which is beautiful and practical. Don't consider the health and environmental protection issues. If you want to choose a relatively environmentally friendly one without a particularly large budget, it is also good to choose multi-layer solid wood. As for the ecological board, the price is almost the same as that of solid wood, so it is better to choose solid wood directly.
