Corrosiveness of Thermally Modified Wood [PDF]
Forests, 2019 Thermally modified wood is becoming commercially available in North America for use in outdoor applications. While there have been many studies on how thermal modification affects the dimensional stability, water vapor sorption, and biodeterioration of wood, little is known about whether thermally modified wood is corrosive to metal fasteners and ...

Some physical characteristics of thermally modified oriental-beech wood [PDF]
Maderas. Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014 Heat treatment of Oriental-beech (Fagus orientalis) wood was carried out by hot air in an oven for 2, 4, and 8 h at 140, 170, and 200°C. After heat treatment, some physical characteristics such as surface roughness, color, glossiness, and mass loss of Oriental-beech wood specimens were measured.Our results showed that heat treatment caused decrease in ...
