Advantages and Disadvantages of birch boards
Furniture made of birch wood is easy to process, has smooth cutting surfaces, and has good paint and glue performance, so the paint surface of the birch furniture produced is smooth and flat.
Because birch is mechanically strong, elastic, and has obvious annual rings, the birch furniture made is smooth and wear-resistant, with clear patterns. It is now used for the production of structures, inlaid wood and internal frames.
Birch is elastic, prone to cracking and warping when drying, and is not wear-resistant. The birch rings are slightly obvious, the texture is straight and obvious, the material structure is delicate, soft and smooth, and the texture is soft or moderate. The bark of birch is also relatively flexible and beautiful.
Disadvantages
The fibers of birch furniture have poor shear resistance and are prone to breaking in stubble, so birch furniture is not wear-resistant and has poor tensile resistance.
The roots and nodules of birch are mostly patterned, and they are relatively hygroscopic, and are prone to cracking and warping when dry, so birch furniture must not be too dry for the indoor environment. Not wear-resistant. Birch is juicy and deforms after it becomes a material, so it is rare to see tables and chairs made of birch.
Birch cleaning and maintenance methods
to avoid scratches from hard objects.
When cleaning, do not let cleaning tools touch the furniture. Be careful not to let hard metal products or other sharp objects collide with the furniture to protect the surface from scratches.
Avoid humid environments.
If the indoor turbulence is in summer, thin rubber pads should be used to separate the parts of the furniture from the ground, and at the same time, the wall-to-wall part of the furniture is kept at a distance of 0.5— 1㎝.
Repeat soft cloth to remove dust from furniture along the texture of the wood.
Before removing dust, dip some detergent on the soft cloth and do not wipe it with a dry cloth to avoid wiping the flowers. When solid wood furniture is used in a dry environment, manual humidification measures are required. For example: wipe the furniture regularly with a soft cloth dipped in water.
Avoid removing stains with alcohol, gasoline or other chemical dissolving.
If there are stains on the surface of the furniture, do not wipe hard. Use warm tea water to gently remove the stains. After the moisture evaporates, apply a little gloss wax on the original part, and then grind it lightly several times to form a protective film.
Avoid direct sunlight.
The outdoor sun should be avoided for a long time from exposure to the whole or part of the furniture. It is best to place it in a place where the sunlight can be exposed, or use transparent gauze curtains to separate direct sunlight. This will not affect indoor lighting, but will also add a warm and romantic atmosphere to the living room, while protecting indoor furniture.
Stay away from heat sources.
In winter, it is best to place the furniture around 1M away from the heating current to avoid long-term high baking, causing local cracks in the wood, deformation of the curved deformation and local deterioration of the paint film. Be sure to use heat pads when placing hot things on wooden dining tables, otherwise white burn marks will be left on the table.
