Performance of proprietary formulations of anti-sapstain preservatives on Hevea brasiliensis timbers in laboratory tests
1989 - IRG/WP 3532
A total of 10 proprietary and two experimental formulations were assessed for their effectiveness against sap-stain caused by Botryodiplodia theobromae on Rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis). Sterilized wood samples 5x20x40 mm³ were dipped in the test chemicals for 60 seconds and then inoculated with 0.5 ml of culture filtrate of Botryodiplodia theobromae for incubation in sterile, damp petri dishes....

Evaluation of a laboratory soft rot test on basis of weight loss and residual strength
1989 - IRG/WP 2336
Based on the principles of different previously reported experimental procedures dealing with laboratory soft rot testing, a study was conducted on treated poplar and beech. Preservatives used were CCA, CCF, AAC, Azaconazole and TCMTB. Treated samples were exposed for three months in a vermiculite substrate to Chaetomium globosum. Evaluation was based on absolute mass loss, percentage weight loss ...

Laboratory evaluation of anti-sapstain formulations
1989 - IRG/WP 3510
Four formulations were tested for their efficacy in controlling molds and sapstaining fungi on wood according to the Standard-II of Japan Wood Preserving Association (JWPA). Relative efficacy was compared on the basis of visual rating of the fungal growth on the treated and untreated wood surfaces when the wood specimens were exposed to each monoculture of 5 test fungi at 26±2°C and 70-80% for 4...

Evaluation de l'efficacité insecticide de la deltaméthrine et fongicide de son association avec le TCMTB+MBT dans le domaine de la préservation des bois
1986 - IRG/WP 1289
La deltaméthrine pour la protection insecticide des bois possède de nombreux avantages: une toxicité relative faible, une évaporation très réduite, une très longue conservation dans la bois, un délavage très faible une fois qu'elle est pénétrée dans le bois, elle n'a pas d'odeur. Son association avec toutes autres matières actives ou solvants sera étudiée ...

Evaluación de oxinato cúprico como alternativa al tribromofenato de sodio, para uso como funguicida antimancha. Ensayo final y conclusiones
2008 - IRG/WP 08-30481
This study evaluated the efficacy of oxine-copper (Cas Nº 10380-28-6. Synonyms: copper oxyquinolate, cupric-8-hydroxyquinolate, copper-8-quinolinolate) for the control of stain fungi in lumber. Three field tests were established and sodium tribromophenate was used as a reference preservative. Boards of Pinus elliotis and P. taeda were treated by dipping for 15, 30 or 60 seconds in two different f...

CCA wood preservative: Trust with destiny
2019 - IRG/WP 19-30731
This paper traces the history of Copper-Chrome-Arsenic (CCA) and its current status in India and worldwide. CCA was invented as ASCU at the Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun in 1933 by Dr. Sonti Kamesam. Although its efficacy was doubted by the British colonial rulers resulting in several hiccups at home, the patent rights were purchased by US Bell Telephone Co. and it was adopted by the US woo...
