Durability of 50 Indonesian Wood Species Preserved with CCB AgainstMarine Borers Attack

ABSTRACT

This study was conducted to provide basic information of the 50 Indonesian wood species treated by copper bichromated boron (CCB) againts marine borers. The full-cell process for 2 hours and 150 psi during the pressure-keeping period was employed. The IUFRO method was applied for the determination of wood treatability class. The treated and untreated wood specimens were tied together using plastic cord, arranged into a raft like assembly, and then exposed for 3, 6, and 12 months to the brackish water situated at Rambut Island‘s coastal area. The SNI 01-7207-2006 standard was used to determine the intensity of marine borer infestation. Results revealed that 32 out of those 50 species were classified as easy to be preserved, 12 species as moderate, the remaining 4 were difficult and 3 very difficult to be preserved. The treated wood specimens were able to prevent marine borers attack. Meanwhile, the untreated specimens were susceptible to marine borers attack, except Eusideroxylon zwageri T.et B, Diploknema oligomera H.J.L., Dipterocarpus glabrigemmatus P.S.Ashton, Tectona grandis L.f., Parinari corymbosa Miq., Metrosideros petiolata Kds. and Azadirachta indica Juss. The attacking borers consecutively are Martesia striata Linne that belongs to the Pholadidae family; and Teredo bartschi Clapp., Dicyathifer manni Wright., and Bankia cieba Clench. to the Terdinidae family.
