Mode of action of brown rot decay resistance in modified wood: A review [PDF]
Chemically or physically modified wood materials have enhanced resistance to wood decay fungi. In contrast to treatments with traditional wood preservatives, where the resistance is caused mainly by the toxicity of the chemicals added, little is known ...

FURFURILASI PADA KAYU TUSAM (Pinus merkusii Jungh. et de Vr.) DAN MANGIUM (Acacia mangium Willd.)
Wood specimens of tusam (Pinus merkusii Jungh. et de Vr.) and mangium (Acaciamangium Willd.) were air-dried to approximately16-18% moisture content. One group of the specimens was further oven-dried ttJ reach moisture content of 6-8%.

Critical moisture conditions for fungal decay of modified wood by basidiomycetes as detected by pile tests [PDF]
The aim of cell wall modification is to keep wood moisture content (MC) below favorable conditions for decay organisms. However, thermally modified, furfurylated, and acetylated woods partly show higher MCs than untreated wood in outdoor exposure.

Interrelationship between static and dynamic strength properties of wood and its structural integrity [Međusobna ovisnost statičkih i dinamičkih svojstava čvrstoće drva i njegova strukturnog integriteta] [PDF]
Various biotic and abiotic agents affect the performance of wood products. Chemicals, thermal energy, radiation, as well as different organisms have the potential to alter the optical, haptic and functional performance of wood.

Influence of Furfurylation on Practical Properties of Beech Plywood [PDF]
In this study, the influence of Furfurylation on practical properties of beech plywood investigated. Furfurylation of beech layers were performed by impregnation and heat catalyze up to 30% and 70% weight percent gain. Plywood specimens made by 2 resins (
