Pressure Methods for Wood Preservative Treatment.

Modeling of wood preservative leaching in service

To evaluate the potential environmental and health implications of leaching of wood preservatives in service under different conditions, there is a need for a predictive model that provides estimates of the rate and extent of leaching over a wide range of exposure conditions. In this paper, we test the hypothesis that preservative component emissions can be modeled on the basis of three easily ...

Preservative leaching from weathered CCA-treated wood.

Disposal of discarded chromated copper arsenate (CCA)-treated wood in landfills raises concerns with respect to leaching of preservative compounds. When unweathered CCA-treated wood is leached using the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP), arsenic concentrations exceed the toxicity characteristic (TC) limit of 5mg/L in most cases. The majority of discarded CCA-treated wood, howeve...

Polymeric Betaine as a Wood Preservative

Didecyl polyoxyethyl ammonium borate (DPAB), also known as Polymeric Betaine, was developed as a co-biocide for chromium-free copper based wood preservatives in Europe in the 1980’s. This paper summarizes the properties of DPAB as a wood preservative. Unique properties related to the betaine nature of DPAB are discussed in terms of the structureproperty relationship. Physical properties of DPAB...
