Can Plasma Surface Treatment Replace Traditional Wood Modification Methods?
Wood modification is an excellent and increasingly used method to expand the application of woody materials. Traditional methods, such as chemical or thermal, have been developed for the targeted improvement of some selected properties, unfortunately ...

A Review on the Effect of Wood Surface Modification on Paint Film Adhesion Properties
Wood surface treatment aims to improve or reduce the surface activity of wood by physical treatment, chemical treatment, biological activation treatment or other methods to achieve the purpose of surface modification. After wood surface modification, the

Challenges of Wood Modification Process for Plantation Eucalyptus: A Review of Australian Setting
1) Australia has significant wood resources in its native forest, but the resource available for harvest becomes lesser due to the conversion of native forest to conservation reserves.

Beech wood modification based on in situ esterification with sorbitol and citric acid
In this study, modification of European beech wood ( Fagus sylvatica ) through in situ esterification of sorbitol and citric acid (SorCA) was investigated at two curing temperatures, 140 and 160 °C.

Multiscale modelling investigation of wood modification with acetic anhydride.
Density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were employed to investigate the interaction of cellulose and lignin with acetic anhydride for explaining the wood modification process. Cellulose was modelled with a cellobiose unit

Wood–Water Relations Affected by Anhydride and Formaldehyde Modification of Wood
The moisture uptake of wood is influenced by accessible hydroxyl groups acting as sorption sites and the water-available cell wall space. To what extent do these mechanisms control the moisture uptake in wood needs to be addressed. For this purpose, we modified sorption site density and cell wall space by wood treatments with acetic anhydride or ...
