The quality requirements of sports wood flooring cover several key aspects to ensure that it can meet the needs of high-intensity sports.
In terms of physical properties, the first is load-bearing performance. Sports wood flooring needs to bear the weight of athletes, sports equipment, etc., as well as various impact forces during sports. After long-term use, high-quality sports wood flooring should not have obvious deformation, dents and other problems, and always maintain good support capacity to ensure the flatness of the sports venue.
Impact absorption performance is an important indicator to measure the quality of sports wood flooring. As mentioned above, at least 53% of the impact should be absorbed by the floor to protect athletes from excessive impact. This requires that the materials and designs of structures such as elastic cushions are reasonable and can effectively buffer energy.
The rebound ability of the ball is also key. Taking the basketball court as an example, the rebound ability of more than 90% of the ball is a basic requirement to ensure the normal development of basketball and allow athletes to perform various technical movements smoothly.
The surface friction coefficient must be controlled within the range of 0.4-0.7 to ensure that athletes will not slip and can move freely during exercise.
In terms of material quality, the selection and quality of the panel are crucial. The texture, hardness, density, etc. of high-quality hardwood such as maple must meet the standards, and the moisture content must be strictly controlled within the local equilibrium moisture content range to prevent deformation and cracking. The keel must be made of strong and durable wood and well treated with anti-corrosion. The board of the stabilization layer must have sufficient strength and stability, and the elastic cushion material must have good elasticity and shock absorption.
In terms of environmental protection, the paint, glue and other materials of sports wood flooring must meet environmental protection standards. For example, the paint must be free of three benzenes (benzene, toluene, xylene) and three benzene-free (paint, curing agent, and thinner do not contain benzene) to protect the health of athletes and users. At the same time, during the production and installation process, environmental protection requirements must also be followed to reduce pollution to the environment. Only by meeting these multi-faceted quality requirements can sports wood flooring provide safe and high-quality venues for various sports.
