Small wood panels treated with many different chemicals |
|
have been exposed to limnorian and teredine marine borers |
|
in the sea at Key West, Florida. These preservatives and |
|
treatments include creosotes with and without |
|
modification, waterborne salts, salt-creosote dual |
|
treatments, chemical modifications of wood, and modified |
|
polymers. In spite of the accelerated nature of this |
|
test, many treated panels remain free of attack after 13- |
|
1/2 years in the sea. Untreated panels have been badly |
|
damaged by marine borers in 6 to 18 months. Borer |
|
activity has lessened in recent years. Keywords: Wood |
|
preservation, marine borers, creosote, Limnoria, |
|
teredines, CCA, durability. |
