Artificial simulation moss manufacturing process

Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing process of artificial simulation moss. The artificial simulation moss mainly solves the problems that existing artificial simulation moss is unnatural in appearance, low in simulation degree, easy to recognize, lack of sense of reality and easy to fall off and fade. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1) screening mildew-free sawdust; (2) preparing pigment toning; (3) preparing moss mud; (4) sand mud manufacturing; (5) coating the fallen spots with sand mud; and (6) washing sand mud. The simulation moss manufactured through the method has the high simulation degree, is natural in appearance and form, can be used for making true with false, and is high in sense of reality. And meanwhile, the binding force with a carrier is high, the coating does not fall off or fade after being exposed to the wind and the sun, the service life is long, the selected materials are environment-friendly, and the environment is not polluted.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technology of simulating ecological plants in garden landscapes, specifically to a process for creating artificial moss. Background Technology

[0002] Bryophytes are simple, flat green plants that thrive in shady, damp environments. They typically grow on exposed rock faces, in shady areas, under roof tiles, at tree bases, on tree trunks, on rock surfaces, and on the backs of buildings. In recent years, bryophytes have been incorporated into landscape design to enhance the aesthetics of gardens and make them more natural. Consequently, there is significant demand for them in parks, scenic areas, and resorts. While real bryophytes are highly adaptable, their growth rate is still insufficient to keep pace with the fast-paced development of landscapes, necessitating artificial moss as a substitute. Existing artificial moss is primarily made of plastic, although some domestically produced artificial moss is made from sand and dyes. However, existing artificial moss suffers from the following technical drawbacks: 1. Unnatural appearance, low simulation, easily identifiable, and lack of realism; 2. Low adhesion to the substrate, prone to detachment and fading. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the problems of unnatural appearance, low simulation, easy identification, lack of realism, easy detachment, and easy fading of existing artificial moss, this invention provides a process for producing artificial moss. The artificial moss produced using this invention has a high degree of simulation, a natural appearance, and can be easily mistaken for real moss, resulting in a strong sense of realism. Furthermore, it has strong adhesion to the carrier, will not detach or fade even after exposure to wind and sun, has a long service life, and uses environmentally friendly materials, causing no pollution to the environment.

[0004] The technical solution of this invention is: a process for creating artificial moss, comprising the following steps: ① Select mold-free sawdust and sieve it through a sieve with a mesh size of 5-10, then set aside. ② Pigment mixing and preparation: Using water-based environmentally friendly latex paint as the base material, prepare various colors of pigments for later use; ③ To make moss mud, mix the above pigments with building adhesive at a weight ratio of 1:1 to 1.2 to make various color masterbatches. Then mix the various color masterbatches with the screened wood chips at a weight ratio of 1:2 to 2.5 and stir evenly. Adjust the dryness and humidity until it can be formed into a ball by hand without falling apart or flowing, thus forming moss mud. ④ Sand and mud preparation: Mix water and river sand at a weight ratio of 0.8:5 and stir evenly to make sand and mud. Adjust the dryness and moisture until it can be formed into a ball by hand without falling apart or flowing. ⑤ Splash sand and mud onto the surface of the carrier to simulate the peeling spots, and then use a brush to apply different colors of moss mud to the designed areas on the surface of the carrier. ⑥ After the moss mud is applied, wait 12 to 24 hours to allow the moss mud to reach a certain adhesion strength with the carrier. Rinse the sand mud with water to remove it. After rinsing clean, allow it to air dry naturally. Finally, spray acrylic transparent material on the designed area on the carrier surface and allow it to air dry naturally. The artificial moss production is now complete.
