Hydrophilicity, Biocorrosion of Structures of Wooden Architecture Monuments

The problem of preservation of monuments of wooden architecture is becoming more and more urgent over time. One of the main factors affecting the destruction of the wood of monuments are hydrophilicity, biocorrosion of structures. The purpose of the article is to study water absorption, structure, surface, mycological studies of wood monuments of various terms and conditions of operation. The purpose of the article is to study water absorption, structure, surface, ecological studies of monuments wood of various terms and conditions of operation. Samples of wood of wooden architecture monuments of various significance with a service life from 308 to 110 years have been studied. The samples were modified with a 30% solution of nitrilotrimethylphosphonic acid with the addition of 0.1% carbon nanotubes. Physical and chemical studies of wood samples of monuments of wooden architecture have been carried out. The dependence of the obtained results on the destruction of wood was revealed. Surface modification of samples reduces water absorption by 3–38% and significantly reduces the concentration of viable spores of biodestructive microorganisms. Physicochemical and mycological quantitative studies, IR Fourier spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy together give a reasonable idea of the wood preservation and the possibility of its long-term operation.
