The main role of furniture in modern homes is wooden furniture, in which solid wood furniture occupies the main battlefield of high-end consumption, but most people often only look at styles and plates when purchasing wooden furniture, while others are concerned about the quality of furniture. The details are half-resolved or indifferent. In fact, when purchasing wooden furniture, especially solid wood furniture, the moisture content of the wood, the processing of the paint film, the connection of the concrete structure, etc. should be paid more attention, especially when you choose off-site wood. It should be said that the moisture content of wood has a great relationship with the intrinsic quality of furniture.
Water content is not intuitive but important
Some consumers have reported that their own solid wood flooring has not been used for a year, and cracking has occurred. However, they usually pay attention to protection. How can this happen? In fact, not only solid wood flooring, some solid wood furniture, doors and windows, etc. will also have such a phenomenon, and the most direct cause of this phenomenon is the moisture content of wood.
Usually, the wood itself contains a certain amount of water, so it will be dried before the furniture is made. This is well known, but the drying must follow certain standards, even if the moisture content and use of the furniture materials The average moisture content of the regional atmosphere remains the same. When purchasing wooden furniture, especially solid wood furniture, if there is no professional detector, it is difficult for consumers to know whether the wooden furniture meets the prescribed standards. However, we cannot ignore the importance of water content because it cannot be visually reflected.
The average moisture content in the atmosphere varies depending on the geographical location. Therefore, the water content requirements for wooden furniture vary from region to region. For example, the average moisture content of air in Beijing is 11.4%, compared with 14% in the south. Left and right, specific to the requirements of the furniture is the local average moisture content between plus and minus one. The water content directly affects the quality and use of wooden furniture, especially solid wood furniture. When the water content is low, the wood will absorb the moisture in the air, causing the furniture to expand and deform. When the water content is high, the furniture will be in danger of cracking. In general, wooden furniture, especially solid wood furniture, preferably has a moisture content that is a little lower than the average moisture content of the local air, for example, 1 to 2 percentage points. For example, in the Beijing market, there are many products of wood from the south, or directly from the southern production and then shipped, it is conceivable that the air in the south is damp than the north, where the moisture content of the wood is higher than that of the north, so the wood in the south Furniture, especially solid wood furniture and wood, must be subjected to strict moisture treatment, and there are two problems in this, one is the requirements of construction technology, and the other is the cost requirement. If the coordination of the two aspects is not guaranteed If the rate is effectively treated, the southern wooden furniture is indeed more prone to problems in the northern environment.
In addition, the moisture content of furniture materials is directly affected by the moisture content of the air. When the air humidity is high, the moisture content of the furniture material will rise slightly, and the moisture content of the furniture material will also decrease when the air is dry. At the same time, the more new wood and new furniture, the more obvious this change. Generally, after one to two years, the stability of the wood in a relatively fixed environment is enhanced, and the influence of air humidity on the furniture is gradually reduced.
Although the moisture content of the wood is measured by the detector, the consumer can still test it by some simple methods. You can touch the surface of the wooden furniture by hand. If there is moisture and coolness, it means the furniture. The moisture content may be high. However, since the consumers see samples that have been placed in the store for a certain period of time, the moisture content is almost balanced, so if the moisture content of the furniture is not assured, the new furniture should be tested by a professional detector.
