Pine wood modification by heat treatment in air [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) wood has low dimensional stability and durability. Heat treatment was made in an oven using hot air during 2 to 24 h and at 170-200 ºC. A comparison was made against steam heat treatment.

Thermal expansion of wood at different equilibrium moisture contents [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2019
The measurement of wood thermal expansion at fixed values of moisture content (MC) between the dry state and the cell wall saturation point is a very difficult task, as MC varies with temperature. Being hygroscopic deformations much larger than thermal ones, in order to evaluate the latter, when changing temperature also relative humidity should be ...

Investigation of Thermo‐Chemical Processes in Commercial MgO‐C Refractory Bricks With and Without MgO‐C Recyclate at Elevated Temperatures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates thermo‐chemical processes during high‐temperature testing of two commercial MgO‐C brick grades, one containing 47.5 wt.% MgO‐C recyclate. Using ETV, DTA/TG‐MS, XRD, and SEM/EDS/EBSD, mechanisms such as carbothermal reduction of magnesia, impurity incorporation into the secondary MgO surface layer, and calcium‐rich phase ...

Equilibrium moisture content and volumetric changes of Gigantochloa scortechinii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Equilibrium moisture content and volumetric changes of Gigantochloa scortechinii. Relative humidity (RH) is known to affect the moisture content (MC) of bamboo but to date, only the maximum shrinkages at the tangential and radial directions were ...

Characterization of a Recyclate‐Based MgO‐Steel Composite As‐Sintered Inert Anode Candidate After Exposure to Cryolite Electrolysis

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Carbon‐free inert anodes are essential for decarbonizing aluminum electrolysis. This study investigates a recyclate‐based MgO‐316L steel composite anode tested under galvanostatic Hall–Héroult conditions in cryolite at 1000°C. Microstructural analysis reveals selective MgO fluorination, spinel and oxide layer formation, electrolyte infiltration, and ...

Equilibrium moisture content/equilibrium relative humidity of barley

open access: yesKorean Journal of Food Preservation, 2018
Desorption equilibrium moisture content (EMC)/equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) experiments were performed on two cultivars (Sae naked and Hin-chal naked) of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) at 5, 15, 25, 35, and 45℃ for moisture contents between 9.51 and 29.13%,db.

A modification of the mixed form of Richards equation and its application in vertically inhomogeneous soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Recently, new soil data maps were developed, which include vertical soil properties like soil type. Implementing those into a multilayer Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere-Transfer (SVAT) scheme, discontinuities in the water content occur at the interface ...

Investigation of Oxygen‐Free Wetting Behavior of Aluminum on Copper via Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Experiments

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The wettability of aluminum droplets (Al) on different copper substrates (Cu), where liquid Al spreads on solid Cu surfaces to form a liquid–solid interface, is studied numerically and experimentally. The experimental and numerical results show good agreement in the fast‐spreading regime.

Experimental Study on Determining Unsaturated Property of Soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
This paper deals with the experimental study of hydraulic properties of unsaturated soil. In treating unsaturated zone, a great deal more data are required than are required for the saturated zone, but these properties of soils must be known to apply the
