Moisture-proof (MP) board is a term typically associated with engineered wood products that are designed to offer improved resistance to moisture, compared to standard wood materials. This category includes a range of products such as moisture-resistant particle board, MDF (medium-density fiberboard), plywood, and other composite boards. Such materials are often used in cabinetry, bathroom furniture, kitchen units, and other areas subject to occasional exposure to moisture. Here are some key points regarding moisture-proof board materials:
- Composition:
- Particle Board MP: This consists of wood particles or chips that are bonded together with a synthetic resin or glue, which is typically a formaldehyde-based adhesive like urea-formaldehyde or phenol-formaldehyde. For moisture resistance, manufacturers may alter the adhesive formulation to improve the bond in wet conditions.
- MDF MP: Moisture-resistant MDF is made in a similar way to standard MDF but with a modified resin that provides better performance in humid conditions.
- Plywood MP: Moisture-proof plywood utilizes waterproof adhesives, such as phenolic resins, to bond the veneer layers together, offering greater resistance to moisture.
- Features:
- Enhanced Durability: The addition of moisture-resistant chemicals during manufacturing improves durability when exposed to humid or wet environments.
