For flame retardancy testing, in a nitrogen-oxygen mixture with an initial oxygen concentration of 21%, the oxygen concentration is adjusted until the sample can burn continuously for 3 minutes or 50 mm in length, and the oxygen index is calculated. Strength testing was conducted using a universal testing machine.

[0055] The test data of the guitar panel materials prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 are recorded in the table below: Group Acoustic transmission efficiency (dB) Water absorption rate (%) Oxygen Index (OI) (%) Flexural strength (MPa) Example 1 92.5±0.5 2.1±0.2 31±1 128 Example 2 91.8±0.6 2.3±0.3 30±1 125 Example 3 93.2±0.4 1.9±0.2 32±1 131 Comparative Example 1 85.3±0.8 4.5±0.4 26±1 95 Comparative Example 2 88.7±0.7 6.8±0.5 24±1 98 Comparative Example 3 86.2±0.9 3.9±0.3 28±1 102 Comparative Example 4 89.5±0.6 5.2±0.4 25±1 105 By comparing and analyzing the data in the table, it can be seen that the guitar panel materials prepared using the processes in Examples 1-3 have significantly better performance than those prepared using the processes in Comparative Examples 1-4. This indicates that the present invention, through pretreatment of wood sheets including degreasing, cleaning, and drying, makes the substrate surface clean and reduces the moisture content. Simultaneously, the subsequent coating of the wood surface with an acoustically enhancing solvent containing graphene powder works synergistically with the wood substrate, providing not only a uniform acoustic functional interface but also optimizing the sound wave transmission path within the material, thereby improving the final acoustic performance of the guitar panel. Furthermore, the use of an impregnation solution composed of epoxy resin, polyurethane resin, acoustic functional additives, and waterproofing additives in a specific ratio on the wood... The wood is impregnated, and the components react synergistically and cross-link during hot pressing and curing to form a dense and stable three-dimensional network structure. This structure not only gives the material excellent dimensional stability and resistance to environmental changes, but the waterproofing additives it contains also build a continuous waterproof barrier inside the material, thereby simultaneously enhancing the durability and waterproofness of the guitar top. By using a segmented pressing method, including initial low pressure and subsequent high pressure, to cure and shape the impregnated wood sheets during the hot pressing stage, the resin is fully penetrated and evenly distributed inside the wood, while reducing internal stress and defects in the laminated structure. This ensures that the final guitar top material has high bonding strength, excellent bending resistance, and good overall structural integrity.
