Infrared thermography for wood density estimation [PDF]

open access: yesInfrared Physics & Technology, 2018
Abstract Infrared thermography (IRT) is becoming a commonly used technique to non-destructively inspect and evaluate wood structures. Based on the radiation emitted by all objects, this technique enables the remote visualization of the surface temperature without making contact using a thermographic device.

Heat-Treated Wood Reinforced High Density Polyethylene Composites

open access: yesDrvna industrija, 2021
This study investigated the effect of untreated and heat-treated ash and black pine wood flour concentrations on the selected properties of high density polyethylene (HDPE) composites. HDPE and wood flour were used as thermoplastic matrix and filler, respectively.

Antibiofilm activity of a chionodracine‐derived peptide by NMR‐based metabolomics of cell‐free supernatant of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Physical properties of Oriental beech impregnated and coated with some chemicals

open access: yesPolímeros, 2023
In this research, oven-dry density, air-dry density, and water absorption levels of Oriental beech treated with flame-resistant chemicals (FRC) and coated with polyurethane/polyure (PU) and epoxy (EP) were evaluated.

Why wood density varies across communities [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, 2017
AbstractCommunities are the emergent outcome of individual‐level trait–environment interactions. In this issue of the Journal of Vegetation Science, Ibanez et al. utilize an impressive data set from New Caledonia to demonstrate how the interaction of climatic axes drives the distribution and diversity of wood density in tree communities.

Comparative study on overall, surface and centre compressed solid wood

open access: yesScientific Reports
For more efficient utilisation of low-density solid wood, this study used white poplar (Populus tomentosa) solid wood as the material. Surface, centre, and overall compressed solid wood were subsequently obtained, and a comparative analysis was conducted

Computer Tomography of the Density and its Spatial Distribution of Wood-Plastic Composites

open access: yesBioResources, 2016
The density and its spatial distribution of wood-plastic composites (WPCs) were tested by the computer tomography (CT) method. Based on the correlation among the attenuation coefficient, density, and CT number, a mathematical model between CT number and ...

Influence of wood density in tree-ring-based annual productivity assessments and its errors in Norway spruce [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2015
Estimations of tree annual biomass increments are used by a variety of studies related to forest productivity or carbon fluxes. Biomass increment estimations can be easily obtained from diameter surveys or historical diameter reconstructions based on ...
