The moldy of wooden pallets is caused by mold erosion of wood. Different molds form different colors of mildew on the surface of wood, such as black, green, yellow red, blue green, etc. Mold prefers a humid environment, so the end of the log, the square wood and the wooden pallet that have not been dried are easy to mold, especially the sapwood part of the broadleaf wood. Wood mold is usually limited to the surface or near the surface of the very shallow layer, only under the right conditions to the internal mycelium will invade. Usually mildew has no effect on the strength of wood.
Wood pallet mildew is mainly affected by the following factors:
Moisture: Only when the moisture content of wood is higher than 20%, microorganisms such as discoloration fungi can reproduce and grow. Therefore, if the harvested wood can be dried immediately to a moisture content of less than 20%, and the moisture content is always kept below 20% during processing and use, the blue change can be effectively reduced. However, most of our log board enterprises are difficult to dry immediately after logging due to transportation delays, drying cycles and other factors.
Nutrients: The most suitable nutrients required by various wood fungi are different, but all fungi can get the nutrients they need from wood.
Air: Most fungi must be in the presence of oxygen to grow. However, they require very little oxygen. When the oxygen content in the air reaches 1%, the fungus can grow. Therefore, it is more unrealistic to control the blue change by oxygen isolation.
Temperature: Wood microorganisms can only grow within a certain temperature range, and the suitable temperature for fungal growth is 20 ~ 30C. If two extreme high and low temperature methods are used to store wood below-15C or above 40C, the growth rate of fungi will be significantly slowed down. This is not desirable because it involves too much cost increase.
