Abstract
In general, when wood products are used outdoors for a certain period of time the surface color of wood changes due to light, water, heat and so on. This color change can be considered importantly for the product's market value. In this study, the color change of ACQ (Alkaline Copper Quaternary) and CBHDO (CuO $H_3BO_3$ N-cyclohexyldiazenium-anion) treated wood and untreated wood was investigated during 2-year weathering test. From this experimental study, it was found that the colors of the treated wood changed more reddish and yellowish from green. Meanwhile, the untreated wood turned to grey color rapidly. Also, the color of the treated wood in short-term exposure changed closer to the inherent color of the fresh natural wood than that of the untreated woods.
