Summary of Test Method3.1 Conditioned blocks of wood are impregnated withdifferent concentration solutions of a preservative in water orsuitable organic solvent to produce a series of retentions of thepr

9、eservatives in the blocks. After periods of conditioning orweathering, the impregnated blocks are exposed to one or morestrains of wood-destroying fungi, one fungus for each testseries. The minimum amount of preservative that in theprescribed testing protects the impregnated blocks againstdecay by a

10、 given test fungus is defined as the thresholdretention for that organism. Failure to protect is evidenced byloss of wood from the treated wood blocks, as indicated by aloss in weight.3.2 Provision must be made for coordinated preparation ofthe test cultures and for impregnation, conditioning, or we

Significance and Use4.1 This test method is useful in the development of newwood preservatives and preservative systems by evaluating theminimum preservative retention to prevent decay under labo-ratory conditions. The results are used to facilitate

12、targetretentions in subsequent tests for effectiveness against termites(see Test Method D 3345) and in field stakes (see Test MethodD 1758).

Selected wood shall be free of knots andvisible concentration of resins, and showing no visible evi-dence of colonization by mold, stain, or wood-destroyingfungi, with 212 to 4 rings/cm (6 to 10 rings/in.). Wheneverpracticable, begin sel

31、ection of the wood for the test blocks atthe sawmill. Quarter-sawed boards are preferable. Newly cutboards, nominally 25 mm (1 in.) thick, that are immediatelykiln dried without antistain treatment provide chemical-freewood that has had minimum opportunity for fungus infectionprior to use in the soi

If southern pine is used, it should be 40 to 50 %summerwood, Report the species of wood and growth charac-teristics of selected specimens.7.1.2 For hardwoo

33、ds, use sapwood from sweet-gum (Liq-uidambar styraciflua L.) or yellow poplar (Liriodendron tu-lipeifera L.).7.1.3 Sapwood IdentificationWhen the boundary betweenheartwood and sapwood is difficult to recognize, use a colortest (see Test Method D 3507 to distinguish between the two.Sample blocks shal

34、l be all sapwood.7.2 Test Blocks (Note 3) Mill-test blocks as accurately aspossible to 19 mm on each face. The volume of the blocks(without holes) shall be 6.9 6 0.2 cm3as determined bycalipers.NOTE 3For convenience in handling, blocks may be drilled throughthe center of a tangential face with a 3-m

35、m drill (approximately 0.125 in.or a No. 30 drill). Pin bars may then be used for handling. Store workingstocks of test blocks and feeder strips in the conditioning room. It isdesirable to weigh the blocks after they come to approximate equilibriummoisture content in storage or in the conditioning r

36、oom, and to sort theminto fairly narrow-range weight groups. Since the blocks are cut accuratelyto size this division into weight groups is, in effect, a segregation intodensity groups (see 11.4).7.3 Feeder Strips:7.3.1 General ConsiderationsOne feeder strip is requiredfor each culture bottle (Fig.

37、2). If test blocks other than pine areused for special investigations, the sapwood selected for feederstrips shall be capable of furnishing a satisfactory growth of thetest fungus; for example, sweetgum sapwood often is used withhardwood test blocks.7.3.2 SizeThe feeder strips are cut 3 by 28 by 35

38、mm (18by 118 by 138 in.) with the grain of the wood parallel to eitherof the longer dimensions. The exact dimensions are not critical,but in bottles with two test blocks, the blocks shall not contacteach other.8. Test Fungi8.1 General ConsiderationsAlways include a compara-tively tolerant fungus (se

Use the sieved soil to fill a small Buchner funnelapproximately 50 mm in diameter and 25 mm in depth, andfitted with r

Compact the soil by dropping the funnel three timesthrough a height of 10 mm (0.4 in.) on a wooden tabletop.Level the soil surface by cutting off excess soil with a spatulaat the top of the funnel without further compaction. Then placethe filled

49、 funnel in a 400-cm3beaker and retain in an uprightposition by wedges at the sides of the funnel. Add water to thebeaker to a depth slightly beyond the level of the filter paper.Allow the soil to wet by capillarity so as to reduce the dangerof entrapping air within the column. When the upper soilsurface shows signs of wetting, add more water until the waterlevel approximates the upper surface of the funnel. Place acover over the beaker, and allow the soil to soak for 12 h orovernight. Then place the funnel in a s
