Effects Of Nano-Clay On Biological Resistance Of Wood-Plastic Composite Against Five Wood-Deteriorating Fungi

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2015
Effects of nano-clay on weight loss of wood-plastic composites (WPC) by five fungi were studied. Nanoclay particles of 20 to 50 nm size were applied at 2, 4, and 6% WPC of 0,90 g/cm3 density. The white-rot fungi Physisporinus vitreus, Pleurotus ostreatus

NATURAL DURABILITY AND PERFORMANCE OF HORNBEAM CEMENT BONDED PARTICLEBOARD

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2008
Cement bonded particleboards were manufactured from hornbeam (Carpinus betulus L.) wood particles. Hydration tests were carried out to determine the inhibitory index in order to characterise wood-cement compatibility.

White and Brown Rot Fungal Decay Resistance of Epoxy Composite Modified with Nanocellulose and Tetraethoxysilane

BioResources
The resistance of epoxy composite modified with nanocellulose and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) to decay by white rot (Trametes versicolor) and brown rot (Coniophora puteana) fungi was investigated using EN 113 (1996) as the guideline.
