Abstract
Aim of study: Determination of the effect of different layer thicknesses on the surface hardness value of the water based paint mixed with hollow glass spheres (WBPHGS) applied to oak parquets. Material and method: Two, four and six layers of WBPHGS and additionally one layer protective varnish were applied to the surfaces of parquet specimens produced from oak (Quercus petraea L.) wood. WBPHGS was preferred by reason of the fact that it does not harm environment and human health, and also it has not become widespread on usage of wood surfaces. The surface hardness resistance tests of WBPHGS were performed according to the ASTM D 2240 standard. Results: The mean surface hardness values of oak parquet decreased as the layer thicknesses increased. Highlights: To determine the applicability of WBPHGS which is widely used in the construction and machinery sectors to the surfaces of oak parquet and the surface hardness values of this paint.
