Characteristics of marine plywood
Marine plywood is a high-performance plywood specially designed for marine environment, with good waterproof, moisture-proof, corrosion-resistant and high-strength properties. It is commonly used in the construction and repair of ships and offshore facilities, and is also suitable for other environments that require high durability.
Marine plywood is usually made of multiple layers of high-quality wood flakes glued together under high temperature and high pressure, and the fiber direction of each layer of wood flakes is staggered to increase the overall strength and stability. The adhesive used is a phenolic resin with strong water resistance, which ensures that the plywood will not delaminate or mold after long-term use in water.
Main features of marine plywood:
Waterproof performance: Marine plywood uses waterproof adhesive to ensure that the board will not delaminate or deform in a humid or flooded environment.
Corrosion resistance: Due to the strong corrosiveness of the marine environment, marine plywood is usually made of wood with excellent corrosion resistance, such as teak, mahogany, etc.
High strength: In order to meet the high load requirements of ship structures, marine plywood has high bending strength and compressive strength.
Weather resistance: Marine plywood can withstand extreme climatic conditions such as high humidity, salt spray and temperature changes, maintaining long-term stability.
Low formaldehyde emission: In order to protect the health of crew members and passengers, the release of formaldehyde in the manufacturing process of marine plywood is strictly controlled to meet environmental protection standards.
