Abstract

The naturally weathered and then oil-coated (Teak oil) Rowan wood (Sorbus torminalis) was subjected to distilled (A) and swimming pool water (B) aging treatments with continuous wetting-drying up to the third cycle. Treatment conditions and water aging types seem to influence color variables somewhat. The highest lightness (ΔL*), redness (Δa*), and yellowness (Δb*) changes were measured in samples that were continuously aged at the third cycle procedure in swimming pool water, respectively. Similar results have also been observed for total color changes, such that pool water had higher discoloration effects on color values compared to distilled water at similar conditions, while increasing the cycle usually further lowered discoloration. The highest color change value of ΔEB3: 10.49 (metric) was found in the third cycle in pool water treatment, followed by a value of ΔEB2: 9.42 (metric) in the second cycle and a value of ΔEB1: 1.71 (metric) in the first cycle, respectively. Color changes could be employed as a sensitive physical indicator of coating aging, which can be correlated to the associated chemical changes. All aging processes have lower gloss values than control in all aging procedures, regardless of water type. The lowest gloss value of 1.2 GU was noticed at the third cycle in swimming pool treatments. It is also notable that the most dramatic effect on surface hardness (Shore D) was found after the first cycle, while the lowest hardness values of 38 (metric) and 33 (metric) were found in swimming pools and distilled pure water-treated samples, respectively.

Sürekli ıslatma-kurutma döngülerinin ön yaşlandırılmış ve yağla kaplanmış üvez (Sorbus torminalis) odunu üzerindeki etkileri

Abstract

Atmosferik dış şartlarda yaşlandırma işlemine tabii tutulmuş Üvez odunları (Sorbus torminalis), yağ esaslı yüzey işlem maddesi (Tik yağı) ile işleme tabi tutulmuştur. Daha sonra damıtılmış saf su (A) ve yüzme havuz suyu (B) ile sürekli ıslatma-kurutmaya tabii tutularak yaşlandırma işlemleri üç döngü olacak şekilde uygulanmıştır. İşlem koşullarının ve suda yaşlandırma türlerinin renk değişkenlerini bir dereceye kadar etkilediği görülmektedir. En yüksek parlaklık (ΔL*), kırmızılık (Δa*) ve sarılık (Δb*) değerlerinde meydana gelen farklıklar, yüzme havuz suyu ile muamele edilmiş üçüncü döngü prosedüründe yaşlandırılmış numunelerde ölçülmüştür. Toplam renk değişimleri için de benzer sonuçlar gözlemlenmiş, havuz yüzme suyunun renk değerleri üzerinde, benzer koşullarda damıtılmış suya göre daha yüksek oranda renk değiştirme etkisine sahip olduğu, kurutma-ıslatma döngüsünün arttırılmasının ise genellikle renk bozulmasını daha da artırdığı anlaşılmıştır. En yüksek renk değişimi değeri ΔEB3: 10.49 (metrik) ile havuz suyu ile üçüncü döngüde elde edilirken, bunu ikinci döngüde ΔEB2: 9.42 (metrik) değeri ve ilk döngüde ise ΔEB1: 1.71 (metrik) değeri ile takip etmiştir. Örneklerin renklerinde meydana gelen değişiklikler, uygulanan yüzey işlem maddesinin yaşlanması sonucu oluşan kimyasal reaksiyonlarla ilişkili olduğu değerlendirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada, tüm yaşlandırma işlemine tabi tutulan numunelerin parlaklık değerleri, su türünden bağımsız olarak kontrol örneğinden daha düşük olarak belirlenmiştir. Yüzme havuzu yaşlandırmalarında numunelerin en düşük parlaklık değeri 1.2 GU ile üçüncü döngüde belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca yüzey sertliği (Shore D) üzerindeki en çarpıcı etkinin ilk döngüden sonra bulunması dikkat çekicidir ki en düşük sertlik değerleri ise 38 (metrik) ve 33 (metrik) olarak sırası ile yüzme havuzunda ve damıtılmış saf su ile işlem görmüş numunelerde bulunmuştur.
