First cracking of furniture wood is normal
The cracking of wood is to recognize that this is a normal phenomenon. Not letting it crack is not normal. And all of our methods are changing the normal picture. Briefly introduce the reasons for cracking:
1, wood as a natural material with its own "anisotropic" property. From a scientific point of view, due to the natural nature of wood, the orientation of the substances that make up its cells is very random, so that the wood in different directions, with the changes in the external conditions, have different degrees of contraction, and then will produce cracking and other phenomena. In other words, the wood is different in all directions.
2, the general wood has a moisture content, controlled at about 12% or less. The temperature and humidity are not the same everywhere, and the humidity of the air is the key to determining the wood moisture content. For example, the average annual moisture content of wood in Beijing is 11.4%, in Shanghai it is 16%, and Wenzhou and Haikou are even higher, reaching 17.3%. When wood is in contact with air, it absorbs moisture from the air. In order to balance the moisture content of the furniture with the moisture content of the air, the dry air constantly absorbs moisture from the furniture, so that both sides reach equilibrium. In the process, it will naturally crack.
3. Fiber saturation point, when the free water in the wood completely evaporates, and the water content in the cell wall when the amount of water absorbed is saturated, it is called the fiber saturation point. Generally speaking, if the moisture content in the wood is higher than this point, the shape of the wood will not change much. When the moisture content of the wood is lower than this point, the shape of the wood will change greatly with changes in the outside world.
No matter how expensive the furniture is not well maintained, there will be the same risk of cracking. The non-cracked wood does not exist, and even cement reinforcement will shrink.
