Almost all cat-raising families will always have a cat scratching board. I will not explain its importance. If a cat scratching card board is not given, do you still want your sofa?

Of course, the kitty scratching post is no longer a simple cat scratching board. The various shapes make us dazzled. Of course, the shape is not our theme today. The shape of the Corrugated Cardboard focuses on the durability of the Cat Scratcher. As for the pet preference, the owner of the catnip will generally like it, so I will not talk about it here.

The durability of the cat scratching board is not defined in the national standard. It is entirely up to us to judge whether a cat scratching board is easy to use, and we usually face two problems in use:

(1) Whether it is wear-resistant

(2)Whether the paper scraps are serious

Corrugated cardboard with a surface paper on top, corrugated core paper on the second layer, surface paper on the third layer, and corrugated core paper on the fourth layer

The Foldable Cat Scratching Cardboard,Slope Corrugated Scratch Pad is stacked and bonded by sheets of corrugated cardboard, and then squeezed by a machine to ensure the bonding between the sheets, and then cut into the required shape.

Corrugated cardboard has two indicators: burst strength and edge compression strength:

compressive strength mainly studies the compressive strength of corrugated cardboard, which is almost the meaning of how much force can be used to flatten the corrugated cardboard, which has little to do with the durability of the Scratching Lounge Bed.

Bursting strength can be visually expressed as how much puncturing force the cardboard can withstand under certain conditions, which is mainly related to the fiber length and fiber bonding force of the pulp. Big. Since the cat's paw is to scratch the paper directly, it is similar to applying a puncturing force on the paper, so the puncturing strength can be used as an indicator to measure the durability of the cat scratching board.

Corrugated cardboard is composed of corrugated core paper. When the cat's paw is scratched, it is more to scratch the core paper and the surface paper, so we must also consider the performance of the core paper and the surface paper. There is also an important parameter in the national standard of corrugated core paper-longitudinal break length. This parameter is a measure of the ability of the paper to resist external force stretching, which is related to the fiber length and bonding force of the pulp.

Therefore, the indicators to measure the durability of the cat scratching board, one is the burst strength, the other is the longitudinal fracture length, and the other is the gram weight. It can be said simply that the higher the corrugated cardboard with the higher burst strength and longitudinal breaking length index, the more durable the cat scratching board is.

Another indicator of the gram weight of the cat scratching board is the weight of the paper per square meter, but it cannot be used to measure it alone, it must be used together with the bursting strength.

Some black-hearted manufacturers will use heavier impurities such as sand in the pulp to increase the gram weight of the paper, but as long as the paper is torn apart, you can see a lot of black or other obvious impurities inside, which are easy to identify. This kind of paper is quite heavy in the hand, but the burst strength, you know.

The importance of these three indicators is self-evident. In addition to being scratched for a long time, it can also greatly reduce the generation of paper scraps. The ones you bought that are rotten when scratched and covered with confetti are basically made of corrugated cardboard of poor quality.

Next, let's talk about a very key indicator - the shape of the flute. Corrugated cardboard can be divided into five separate corrugated shapes of A, C, B, E, and F according to the national standard.

The corrugated shapes of different specifications are stipulated by the national standard. In addition to the large gap between height and width, the amount of corrugated cardboard in the same area is also much worse. About 95% of the common cat scratching boards in China are A+C corrugated, and 4% are made of corrugated board. A+B is dumb, and the remaining 1% is B+B dumb.

Why do you like to use A+C, because it saves costs. The cat scratching board of the same area costs only 1 yuan with A+C, and 1.5 yuan with B+B, plus the secret weight, the cost can also become 0.8 yuan. And in the absence of a comparison, I don't know the difference between A+C and B+B at all.

For example, with the same length of 300mm, the B+B flute has a total of 100 fluting holes on the upper and lower layers, while the A+C flute has only 75 fluting holes, and the A+B flute has only 84 fluting holes.

Therefore, different combinations of corrugated shapes are also very important for the durability of the cat scratching board. In terms of quantity, the combination of B+B is more than twice the deflection resistance of the combination of A+C. .

Taking into account the burst strength and longitudinal fracture length, the life of the cat scratching board of the B+B combination is at least 3 times that of the A+C combination.

At the end of the day, I don't know if you have noticed one thing, that is, we have not given a detailed data throughout the whole article, and the cat scratching board that meets which data standard is the most durable.

If you ask the merchants that sell cat scratching boards, 99% of them can't tell you the 3 indicators of this paper. You can say it is an industry secret, or you can say it is inconvenient to disclose. But the real reason is that they themselves

Do not! Know! road!

Don't laugh, this is a very real reason, because most sellers will tell the factory that I want a cat scratching board, plus the overall cost of the shipping fee, and then leave the rest to the factory. Therefore, the sellers are very real sellers. I am only responsible for selling. Except for the obvious information, I really don’t know about the others.

Even so, we can still give you some relatively simple selection criteria for durable cat scratching boards.

Whether the cut surface is smooth or not, the cut surface has a lot of burrs, most of which are due to poor pulp raw materials and poor cutting work, the former is the most.
Corrugated, B+B corrugated is more than 3 times durable than A+C corrugated cat scratching board, because the number of corrugations is more, the more times you scratch.
Whether the package is kept dry, don't think about the wet cat scratching board, no matter how good the raw material is, it will rot when scratched, so keep it away from water and damp places.
The most sincere suggestion, buy a few more to compare and it is easy to know which one has better quality.
