What are the specific functions of Wood Preservatives - Ammonical Copper Quat (ACQ)?

In the vast field of wood processing and application, wood preservation is an important link. With the enhancement of environmental awareness and the advancement of science and technology, Ammonical Copper Quat's wood preservatives have gradually emerged, and its unique advantages have made it a leader in the field of wood protection.

1. The core function of ACQ lies in its good anti-corrosion performance. The divalent copper compounds it contains can form a protective film inside the wood, effectively inhibiting the growth of bacteria, mold and a variety of harmful microorganisms, thereby preventing the wood from rotting due to microbial erosion. ACQ also has good insect-proof performance, especially for termites and other wood pests. It has a strong killing and repellent effect, which greatly extends the service life of the wood.

2. Compared with traditional wood preservatives, the biggest highlight of ACQ is its environmental friendliness. It does not contain harmful heavy metals such as arsenic and chromium, nor does it release harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Therefore, it is harmless to human health and the environment during use. This feature makes ACQ an ideal choice under the concept of green building and sustainable development, and provides a strong guarantee for creating a healthy and safe living environment.

3. In addition to anti-corrosion and anti-termite, ACQ can also stabilize the physical properties of wood to a certain extent. By penetrating wood fibers, ACQ can reduce the deformation of wood caused by moisture expansion and water loss shrinkage, and improve the dimensional stability and durability of wood, which is especially important for wood products that need to be exposed to outdoor or humid environments for a long time, such as outdoor furniture, wooden structure buildings, etc.

4. ACQ wood preservative also has multiple functions such as mildew resistance and discoloration resistance. In humid or warm climates, wood is prone to mold growth and color changes, affecting its appearance and durability. The active ingredients in ACQ can inhibit the growth of mold and slow down the discoloration process of wood, maintaining the natural color and beauty of wood.

5. ACQ wood preservatives are usually applied by pressure impregnation, which is simple and convenient to operate. This method can quickly and evenly penetrate the preservative into the wood, improving construction efficiency and quality. ACQ also has good permeability and fixation, which can ensure the long-term effectiveness of the preservative in the wood.
