A Natural Lignification Inspired Super‐Hard Wood‐Based Composites with Extreme Resilience

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 19, May 12, 2025.
Super‐hard wood‐based composites (WBC) are designed and developed inspired by the mesoscale homogeneous lignification process intrinsic to tree growth. This innovative hybrid structure is achieved by leveraging the infusion of low‐molecular‐weight phenol formaldehyde resin into the cell walls of thin wood slices, followed by a unique multi‐layer ...

LFNMR-Informed Multi-Phase Moisture Modelling of Wood Biodegradation by Coniophora puteana

Forests
Fungal decay fundamentally alters moisture transport in wood through complex bio-physical coupling mechanisms that remain poorly understood. Brown-rot fungi such as Coniophora puteana (Schumach.: Fr.) P. Karst. degrade wood through chelator-mediated Fenton (CMF) chemistry, producing hydroxyl radicals that depolymerise cellulose and hemicellulose before

Quantitative analyses of distribution of the heart rot fungus Serpula himantioides in living Chamaecyparis pisifera using real‐time polymerase chain reaction

Forest Pathology, Volume 54, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Serpula himantioides is a widely distributed wood rot fungus that causes heart rot in various tree species. In Japan, heart rot associated with S. himantioides occurs in Chamaecyparis pisifera; however, its distribution within living trees and changes in its abundance as decay progresses remain unclear.
