One of the most painful things about the renovation of a house is the selection of plates。
To go around the market for building materials, eco-boards, granulate plates, multi-layer panels, ossoon boards ... The names are too many to remember, and the terminology that pops out of the sales mouth is more than a bluff. The point is that it is also directly related to the environmental inexplicability of the home, the insatiability of use, the selection of the wrong, and the after-effects。
Don't panic. Today's article makes clear the nine most common panels on the market. Whether you're going to make it, or you're going to make it up, read it and make sure you don't get carried away。
The original plank: high-end player's first choice, but with a fatal flaw
The original plank, by definition, is the sheet that is made of the trees that are cut down directly. It preserves the most natural texture and quality of wood, as well as the best in all the plates, because there is little or no glue in it。
High-quality, natural scent, which is its core advantage. If you pursue a high degree of environmental and natural beauty and have a sufficient budget, it is absolutely the best option to make a plank for furniture, floors or background walls。
But its shortcomings are equally obvious: its pitiful. Natural wood is susceptible to environmental impacts, with heat and cooling and inflating. It can be fractured and deformed over time. And it's expensive and not easy for ordinary households to consume。
Fingerboards: tablet flat, value for money selection
Pointboard, you can interpret it as a "plattered version" of the logboard. It crosses the wood like a finger and folds it into a large plate。
The advantage of doing so is that both most of the characteristics of solid wood are preserved and the stability of the sheeting is enhanced through the collage process, which is more difficult to transform than the original plank. It's also very environmentally friendly, with relatively little rubber use. The price is much higher than the price of the original planks。
The disadvantage is that collage marks are more visible and not as visual as the original planks. Friends who are fit to make closets, cabinets, or who are used as the basis for other furniture, can focus on those who have a sense of wood and have a limited budget。
Ecoboard: home-made master force, easy to use
Ecoplasms are one of the most used in custom furniture throughout the house. It is structured in the middle with wooden stripes, with decorative wooden skins or stickers on both sides。
The greatest advantage is convenience. It can be cut, sealed, made into closets, bookstores, television cabinets and even decorated on walls. There are a lot of options to look at. Woodlines, pure colours, stripes can be made。
Environmental protection and stability are medium levels, and eligible brand products are fully household. The disadvantage is that, if the wood is bought in poor quality, the wood in it may be uneven and easily deformed over time。
Multilayers: structure as stable as tarzan, tide-proof is strong
Multilayered, also called plywood, is made of a layer of thin wood that is stacked vertically with glue. This cross-cutting structure makes its physical stability extremely stable, with little fear of deformation。
And it's pretty good to be damp. It's better than granular plates, density plates. It is therefore often used in high-temperature locations, such as the backboard of furniture, the bottom of drawers, or for interior partitions and ground bottoming。
Note, however, that because it uses glue on every layer, environmentality depends entirely on the quality of the glue. It is important to select products from large plants using mdi or non-hyde glue, otherwise formaldehyde risks are not low。
Particle plate: the most controversial, but the big cards are used around the world
The granular sheeting, which is a piece of wood that is crushed with glue. It's the biggest misunderstanding that many people feel cheap and unfriendly when they listen to “crush + glue”。
In fact, the top global furniture brands, such as ikea and europa, are heavily using granular panels. It has the advantage of being structurally stable, having a good grip on nails, having a low cost and a high utilization rate of wood and being more environmentally friendly. As long as high-quality mdi-grade glue is used, the level of environmental protection can be very high。
The disadvantage is also clear: it's bad. Once the bounds are broken, it is easy to expand and transform. It is therefore more suitable for drying up cabinets, such as bedroom closets and living room television cabinets, and not for use in a toilet, kitchen, wet-heated place。
Density plate: the most powerful, but the most afraid of water
Density boards are used to pollute wood with glue. Because the powder is thin, it can make complex forms, like european sculptures, arc noodles. Kick wires, decorated lines, cabinet doors, many of which are made of density plates。
But it is the least damp in all the plates, and it swells and transforms when you encounter water, and the release of formaldehyde from poor-quality density plates is amazing because of the large amount of glue used by the powder。
So remember one thing: the density plate is only for a dry environment, so don't use it as a weighting structure, let alone near the bathroom。
Osborne: the hard man of the board, the international mainstream
Osborne, also known as osb, is an upgraded version of the particle plate. It cuts wood into geometric long flowers, which are then directed to be laid and subjected to high temperatures. This structure makes it extremely strong, stable and strong。
In europe and north america, the board of the oscones is a plate that is widely used in architecture and is usually of high environmental grade. The unique stripe of the surface is even used directly by many young people to decorate the industrial wind and make it very simple。
It is well suited to the ceiling, the floors of the walls, or to the furniture and shelf of the industrial wind. If you focus on structural strength and environmental protection, the osborne plate is a very valuable option。
Steamboards: stifling to waste, masters to the environment
The fragrance tablet is the green new star of recent years. It is made of crop straw and mdi impregnation, which reduces wood felling from the source and does not contain formaldehyde per se and is highly environmentally friendly。
Performance is also relatively stable, both intuitive and deformative. It is particularly suitable for families with older persons, children or very high air quality. The closets, cabinets and book cabinets are available。
The disadvantage is that prices are more expensive than normal granulate plates, and that there are few brands on the market that actually use pure straw + mdi glue and that have to shine their eyes。
Pyramids: nature is fresh and hard
The mackerel was crushed after it broke. The bamboo itself is growing fast and very hard, so the plating is very grinding and durable and more hard than much wood. At the same time, it preserves the natural texture of bamboo and the light fragrance, a new style of nature that is particularly suitable for chinese, field or japanese style。
It's also very environmentally friendly. The bamboo itself is antibacterial mites. Suitable floors, furniture, especially bedroom beds, closets, create a comfortable natural atmosphere。
I'll give you three big truths
First, there is no absolute good plank, only the right fit. • to make cabinets, doors, floors and boards in different locations。
Second, it's not environmentally friendly, it's the glue that counts. The recognition of mdi, non-hyde glue, or large branded enf-grade products is more important than the type of fixation。
Third, the sealing process affects formaldehyde releases more than the plate itself. Good plates, bad seals, formaldehyde running out。
Renovation is exhausting, but you've avoided 70% of the pits by getting the plates straight. It is hoped that this article will save you time, money and a real home。
