The result showed that the natural decay resistance of 4-year-old Mao bamboo is moderate, and the resistance to brown fungi is stronger than that to white fungi. The anti-fungi properties of CuAz preservative at the retention of 3.3 kg/m3 are equal to those of CCA-C and ACQ-B at the retention of about 4.0 kg/m3 , and obviously superior to those of organic acids preservatives.展开更多
