What kind of wood is imported rubber wood, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of using it to make a home.
Rubber wood is the backbone of rubber trees and the source of latex. This tree belongs to the genus Rubberwood of Euphorbia family, native to tropical America and Southeast Asia, and was introduced to southern China. Rubber trees are mostly tall trees whose skin contains milk. The wood structure is thick and uniform, the texture is inclined, the wood is light and soft, and the price is relatively low. The economic life of the growing tree is about 15 to 20 years, and the budding tree is 15 to 20 years, and the growth life is about 20 years. Rubberwood is prone to discoloration, insects and decay. After the aging of rubber trees in the production of rubber, 22-29 years of rubber wood is generally not suitable for the production of rubber, and the general materials such as pulp materials in the past are produced after logging.
Rubber wood as an environmentally friendly wood, processing difficulty is relatively low, can carry out a variety of processing operations, so in furniture, floors, doors and Windows and other fields of application is also quite extensive. In addition, the rubber wood color is uniform, the wood grain is beautiful, and the color and texture can be changed by processing and treatment to meet the needs of different consumers. At the same time, due to the fast growth rate of rubber wood, the use of rubber wood can effectively reduce the felling of other slow-growing trees, which is also the reason why more and more consumers pay attention to and love rubber wood.
Although rubber wood has many advantages, there are also problems such as easy deformation, easy moisture and easy cracking. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to maintenance and maintenance when using rubber wood products to extend their service life. In short, rubber wood is a kind of wood with many characteristics and advantages, which can meet the needs of consumers in different fields, but it also needs to pay attention to its particularity and shortcomings. Last year, the Thai rubberwood Export Association adopted a strategy of reducing production and raising prices, resulting in a large number of processing manufacturers suffered. Therefore, understanding the various characteristics of rubber wood is very beneficial to people.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of domestic and imported rubber wood
Advantages: Rubberwood is a tree that can produce rubber. Due to its short growth cycle and wide range of sources, the furniture produced is very cost-effective. It is similar to oak, but its appearance, performance and price are very different. The advantages of rubber wood are good toughness, not easy to crack, easy to maintain, uniform texture, beautiful texture, easy to carve and stain, good hardness, strong bearing capacity. Therefore, it is often used to make furniture such as floors, tables and beds. The wear resistance of rubber wood is particularly good, and it can maintain a smooth texture even after years of use, which is deeply loved by people.
Disadvantages: Rubber does not have a subtle rubber taste. Rubber wood furniture has strong plasticity, easy processing, good coating and bonding, and can produce any furniture products with beautiful appearance and soft curves. In the dry areas of the north, rubber wood furniture is not easy to crack and easy to maintain. There are more sugar points in rubber wood, resulting in easy discoloration of the material and poor anti-moth and insect effect, so preservatives will be added in the manufacturing process. Rubberwood is a mid-to-low grade wood that is much cheaper than the North American hardwood that is popular in the market.
