Classification of solid wood flooring


Classification of 1. wood flooring
1. Solid wood flooring
Made from processed logs. Wood is anisotropic, which determines that the performance of wood flooring is extremely unstable. With the change of natural environment, it is easy to shrink, crack, warp and deformation.
When solid wood flooring is natural wood, it is easy to deform. The deformation of solid wood flooring is caused by its own humidity. The lack of ventilation is the main reason for cracking. Only by controlling the humidity and air flow can the cracking problem be solved.
2. Laminate flooring, commonly known as laminate flooring or laminate flooring
The base material is high-density fiberboard, which is made of fast-growing wood or wood processing residues by thermal grinding into fibers and adhesives under high temperature and high pressure. It is easy to absorb moisture, expand after absorbing moisture, change the size greatly, and arch or crack easily due to improper installation. After the floor heating stops heating in spring, the equilibrium moisture content of the floor is less than 4.5, and the floor is in an extremely dry state. However, the equilibrium moisture content of the floor is much higher after absorbing moisture in summer, so the slight deformation of the single floor will be amplified into unacceptable cracks or arches under the superposition effect. Therefore, the floor heating floor should not be used without moisture-proof treatment of the laminate flooring.
3. Multi-layer solid wood flooring, commonly known as solid wood composite or solid wood multi-layer flooring
The logs are spun into 2-3mm veneer plates, which are then laminated together in a criss-cross manner with glue. This structure reduces the wood stress change, stable performance, is currently the choice of floor heating.
The reason why the deformation of multi-layer solid wood floor is small is that its base material is staggered horizontally and vertically, and each layer is restrained by each other. There are also dense anti-deformation grooves on the back. The anti-deformation grooves function to quickly transfer heat, decompose the stress generated by the heating surface, and offset the thermal expansion rate, so its deformation is small.
