Utilization of temperature kinetics as a method to predict treatment intensity and corresponding treated wood quality : durability and mechanical properties of thermally modified wood [PDF]
Wood heat treatment is an attractive alternative to improve decay resistance of wood species with low natural durability. However, this improvement of durability is realized at the expense of the mechanical resistance.

Investigation physical properties and decay resistance of Medium Density Fiberboard sanding powder- polyethylene-nanoclay composite [PDF]
In this study, the effect of nanoclay and coupling agent on decay resistance and physical properties (including water absorption and thickness swelling) of nanoclay- Polyethylene- MDF sanding- powder composite were investigated. For this aim, MDF sanding

Temperature dependence of the nonlocal voltage in an Fe/GaAs electrical spin injection device [PDF]
The nonlocal spin resistance is measured as a function of temperature in a Fe/GaAs spin-injection device. For nonannealed samples that show minority-spin injection, the spin resistance is observed up to room temperature and decays exponentially with ...

Quantum Metallicity on the High-Field Side of the Superconductor-Insulator Transition [PDF]
We investigate ultrathin superconducting TiN films, which are very close to the localization threshold. Perpendicular magnetic field drives the films from the superconducting to an insulating state, with very high resistance.

Potential of lignocellulosic materials (wood and bark) from Ateleia glazioviana and Hovenia dulcis as a natural wood preservative [PDF]
The lignocellulosic materials of some plant species are rich in chemical compounds that can serve as a source of natural and environmentally less aggressive biocides for treating wood.

Resistance to Phomopsis Seed Decay in Soybean [PDF]
Phomopsis seed decay (PSD) of soybean is caused primarily by the fungal pathogen Phomopsis longicolla Hobbs along with other Phomopsis and Diaporthe spp. This disease causes poor seed quality and suppresses yield in most soybean-growing countries. Infected soybean seeds can be symptomless, but are typically shriveled, elongated, cracked, and have a ...
