The invention relates to a bamboo fence making method. The method comprises the following steps that (a) a bamboo material is made by adopting raw bamboos; (b) mold and insect prevention liquid is sprayed; (c) a bamboo fence is made; (d) heat treatment is performed; (e) water spraying is performed for cooling; (f) drying is performed. The made bamboo fence does not produce the adverse influence on the environment, also has an insect prevention effect, and the effect duration is at least 2 years.

A thin oil film having parylene irregular dendritic-like columns extending from one side to another exhibits hydrophobic properties that can be used as a corrosion resistant coating or water-repellant, biofouling resistant surface. This parylene-in-oil layer can be paired with an adjacent layer of solid parylene that it overlays or underlays. The solid parylene cross polymerizes with the parylene dendrites, keeping them in place as well as the oil film. The parylene dendrites are fabricated by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of parylene over the oil layer, the dendrites self-forming from the bottom to the top. Continued CVD over the dendrites can produce a top layer of solid parylene. Etching the solid parylene away can result in a water repellant, anti-biofouling surface.

A new composition has been invented which for restores the appearance of finished wood surfaces. The composition includes between 20 and 40%, by volume, of at least two oils; between 60 and 80%, by volume, of an organic, nonpolar solvent; and, at least two colorants, with a first colorant comprising about twice, by volume of a second colorant. The at least two oils may be any combination of tung oil, boiled linseed oil, and, olive oil, preferably all three are present. The organic, nonpolar solvent may be high grade mineral spirits. The first colorant may be yellow oxide and the second colorant may be raw umber.

The present invention provides an economical route to environmentally friendly polymeric coatings with a high content of raw materials from renewable resources. These polymeric coatings offer performance characteristics that are competitive with conventional coating systems. The unique polymers on which this invention is based are copolymers of triglyceride oils, such as soybean oil, linseed oil, or another natural oil, with a vinyl compound, such as an acrylate or methacrylate, or a vinyl aromatic monomer. The present invention more specifically discloses a water dispersible, self-crosslinkable prepolymer composition which is comprised of a triglyceride oil having appended thereto (1) hydroxyl groups, (2) epoxy groups, (3) moieties which contain at least one aldehyde group or at least one ketone group, and (4) moieties which contain at least one vinyl and/or substituted vinyl group. In one embodiment of this invention the moiety which contains at least one vinyl group is derived from maleic anhydride.
