Analysis of Composite deck‘s high temperature resistance: Comparison of temperature changes under direct sunlight with solid wood and metal materials

As people’s quality of life improves, their requirements for living environment are also getting higher and higher. In the selection of floor materials, Composite deck has gradually become the first choice of consumers due to its environmental protection, beauty and durability. However, in the hot summer, will Composite deck become overheated under direct sunlight, and what are its advantages compared with solid wood and metal materials? This article will analyze this issue in detail.

1. Analysis of temperature changes of Composite deck under direct sunlight

Composite deck is a new type of environmentally friendly material made of wood powder and plastic, which has certain high temperature resistance. Under direct sunlight, the temperature change of Composite deck mainly depends on factors such as its thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity and thermal expansion coefficient.

1. Thermal conductivity: The thermal conductivity of Composite deck is relatively low, which means that it is not easy to conduct heat. Under direct sunlight, the heat is mainly concentrated on the surface of the floor, while the internal temperature changes are small.

2. Specific heat capacity: Composite deck has a high specific heat capacity, which means it can absorb more heat and is not easy to heat up. Therefore, under direct sunlight, the temperature of Composite deck rises slowly.

3. Thermal expansion coefficient: Composite deck has a small thermal expansion coefficient, which means it deforms less when the temperature changes. Therefore, under direct sunlight, Composite deck is not easy to deform due to temperature changes.

In summary, under direct sunlight, the temperature change of Composite deck is relatively small and it is not easy to overheat.

2. Comparison between Composite deck and solid wood flooring

1. Thermal conductivity: Solid wood flooring has a high thermal conductivity, and heat is easily transferred to the inside, causing the overall temperature of the floor to rise. Therefore, under direct sunlight, the temperature of solid wood flooring rises quickly and is easy to overheat.

2. Specific heat capacity: Solid wood flooring has a low specific heat capacity and poor heat absorption capacity, which easily leads to temperature rise.

Comprehensive comparison, the temperature change of Composite deck under direct sunlight is relatively small, and its high temperature resistance is better than that of solid wood flooring.

3. Comparison between Composite deck and metal floor

1. Thermal conductivity: The thermal conductivity of metal floor is very high, and the heat can be quickly transferred to the inside, causing the overall temperature of the floor to rise rapidly. Therefore, under direct sunlight, the temperature of the metal floor rises very quickly and is prone to overheating.

2. Specific heat capacity: The specific heat capacity of metal floor is low, and the heat absorption capacity is poor, which easily leads to temperature rise.

Comprehensive comparison shows that the temperature change of Composite deck under direct sunlight is relatively small, and its high temperature resistance is significantly better than that of metal floor.

4. Summary

Through the above analysis, we can draw the following conclusions: Under direct sunlight, the temperature change of Composite deck is relatively small, and it is not easy to overheat, and its high temperature resistance is better than that of solid wood and metal floor. Therefore, Composite deck is an environmentally friendly material suitable for outdoor use, which can provide users with a comfortable living environment in hot summer. In the future selection of floor materials, consumers can fully consider the excellent performance of Composite deck to add a guarantee to the improvement of quality of life.
