Preservation of wood works using fungicides against biological deterioration

Wood is subject to deterioration from a number of biological agents including insects, marine borer, bacteria and fungi. Fungi can cause more deterioration in wood than any agent does. In conservation treatment, a fungicide is used to prevent such biological deterioration in wooden artifact. The syn...
