A Wood Preservative Treatment Chemical is a process or substance that when applied to wood will keep it safe from dangers such as rot, insects or water damage longer than if the wood was left untreated. There are a large number of different chemical used to preserve wood.
There are several different compounds used based on the overall protection goal and use for the wood. The most common non-household substance is chromated copper arsenate (CCA). The CCA wood preservative uses copper as a fungicide and arsenic as an insecticide, while the chromium keeps them both in the wood. This makes the wood have a slight green color, a common sight on outside fences, decking material and power poles.
Since arsenic is so poisonous, many areas have moved away from new construction using CCA. In its place, most wood preservatives have gone to alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ) or copper azole (CA-B). These preservatives work in much the same way as CCA, but with less of its negative side effects. As a downside, the high amount of copper in ACQ destroys iron and steel, resulting in much more extensive construction costs.
Outside of copper, several other chemicals are used. Two of the more common non-copper compounds are borate and silicate-based. These provide adequate preservation but very little by way of insecticide. In addition, these chemicals leach out of the wood when exposed to water, making them unusable is some areas.
