Influence of microwave plasticization, areal compression and high-temperature treatment on equilibrum moisture content and shrinkage of Spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.)

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010
The wood is heterogenous material compound from substance of cell walls and air. It is colloidal ca­pil­la­ry-cellular material with ortogonal anisotropy (Babiak, 1976). The wood has possibility to bound liquids and gases into the structure.
