Microstructure of thermally modified radiata pine wood [PDF]

open access: yesBioResources, 2020
The thermal modification of wood is a potential alternative method for improving wood dimensional stability and increasing the resistance of wood to decay. However, during thermal modification, morphological changes occur within the microstructure of the cell, and these confer different properties to the wood. This study investigated the effects of the
