Development of specialized OSB products treated with fungicide and phosphorylation (re-submission)

木材是霉菌和腐烂的很好的食物供应，因为它提供了它们生长所需的所有营养。 它们对木制品造成的损害从脱壳到结构强度的损失。这是平局 对于OSB来说更是如此，因为这种生产通常使用非耐用的木材种类，因此 生物抗药性。在所有杀菌剂处理中，硼酸锌是一个很好的候选者，因为它作为一种 杀菌剂及其对环境的影响低于其他化合物，如铬化砷酸铜或 五氯苯酚。 然而，治疗的有效性取决于组合物中的药剂分布，因此 应用方法的重要性。如果暴露在水中，这些药剂也可能被浸出。 因此，一家人造板制造商想要开发一种抗霉变和腐烂的OSB产品。 由于InnoFibre团队在木纤维化学改性和抗菌测试方面具有专长， 产品种类繁多，制造商要求Innofibre在选择最好的杀菌剂时给予支持 药剂以及最有效的治疗方法。

Wood is a good food supply for moulds and rots since it provides all the nutrients needed to their growth. Damages caused by them to wood products go from discouloration to the loss of structural strength. It is even more true for OSB, since nondurable wood species are generally used for this production hence a low biological resistance. Among all fungicide treatments, zinc borate is a good candidate due to its efficiency as a fungicide and its lower environmental impact compared to other compounds like chromated copper arsenate or pentachlorophenol. However, the effectiveness of the treatment depends on agent distribution within the composition hence the importance of the application method. These agents can also be leached if exposed to water. Therefore, a manufacturer of wood-based panels wants to develop a mould and rots resistant OSB product. Because of the Innofibre team expertize in wood fibre chemical modification and antimicrobial testing on a variety of products, the manufacturer requested Innofibre to support it in the selection of the best fungicidal agent as well as the most effective treatment methods.
