Abstract

Wood is a natural material that is susceptible to biodeterioration agents such as termites, insect borers, decay fungi, bacteria and also to external factors like weathering and fire. Various wood treatment methods have been developed to extend the service life of wood. Nevertheless, most of the conventional treatments are highly toxic to human and bioaccumulative. Extending the service life of wood using nanomaterials represents an attractive approach for wood protection. The mechanisms of nanomaterials do not only protect wood from biodeterioration agents, but also provide an appropriate protection against weathering and fire, and reduce impacts from abrasion and chemicals. Various nanomaterial-based methods for wood protection have been investigated, including biocide delivery systems, metal-based nanoparticles, green compounds and nanominerals. The biocide delivery system is used for controlled release of termiticides, insecticides and fungicides. Some of metal-based nanoparticles, such as nano zinc oxide and nano copper oxide, were resistant to leaching, inhibited decay fungi, harmful to termites and enhanced the photostability of wood against UV radiation. However, the potential of nanomaterials for wood preservation is not deployed on larger scale of commercial wood protection practice due to limited available information and high cost. The present chapter attempts to highlight the comprehensive development of nanomaterials for wood protection towards the sustainability of the wood-based sector.
