Investigation leaching performance of wood materials coated with Cotinus Coggygria extracts and liquid glass (SiO2) mixture
Özet
The purpose of this study was to develop durable natural colorant modified with liquid glass (SiO2) to be used on wooden materials and determine their desorption performance using the leaching method. For this purpose, the natural colorant was extracted from the smoke tree (Cotinus coggygria) performing boiling method. Then, mordants; oak ash (3% by weight), and vinegar (10% by weight) (CH3COOH) were added to mixture. As the last, liquid glass (20% by weight) were added to mixture. The obtained mixture was applied to the Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and beech (Fagus orientalis) wood samples by using classic dipping and vacuum method. Leaching test was performed at pH3-22°C, at pH7-10°C, 22°C, 40°C and at pH 11-22°C. The results showed that the liquid glass did not protect wood materials in leaching as planned. The effective results can be obtained by changing the application method and amount of the liquid glass. The nature-based colorants can be an eco-friendly alternative to synthetics. © 2018 Statny Drevarsky Vyskumny Ustav. All rights reserved.
