Genetic architecture behind developmental and seasonal control of tree growth and wood properties in Norway spruce [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Genetic control of tree growth and wood formation varies depending on the age of the tree and the time of the year. Single-locus, multi-locus, and multi-trait genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were conducted on 34 growth and wood property traits in ...

Creep Properties of Densified Wood in Bending
Forests, 2022 Thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM)-densified timber is rarely used in construction, although its mechanical properties are in many cases excellent. The main reason for its rare use is set-recovery, which reduces the degree of densification over time so that the mechanical properties deteriorate.

Utilization of temperature kinetics as a method to predict treatment intensity and corresponding treated wood quality : durability and mechanical properties of thermally modified wood [PDF]
, 2014 Wood heat treatment is an attractive alternative to improve decay resistance of wood species with low natural durability. However, this improvement of durability is realized at the expense of the mechanical resistance.

Ecotoxicity and fungal deterioration of recycled polypropylene/wood composites: Effect of wood content and coupling [PDF]
, 2013 Polypropylene (PP)/wood composites were produced by homogenization in a twin-screw extruder and injection molding of tensile bars. Their mechanical properties were determined before and after exposure to biological treatment, and the effect of the ...

Characterisation of hardwood fibres used for wood fibre insulation boards (WFIB)
, 2021 Wood fibre insulation boards (WFIB) are typically made from softwood fibres. However, due to the rapid decrease in softwood stands in Germany, the industry will be forced to adapt to the wood market. Therefore, alternative approaches for the substitution

Mid-infrared absorption properties of green wood [PDF]
, 2013 There is a lack of quantitative data on the penetration depth and the amount of energy absorbed by green wood under infrared (IR) radiation. This lack of knowledge is a potential barrier to the development of IR heating as an alternative to soaking as a ...

Impregnation Properties of Nigerian-Grown Gmelina arborea Roxb. Wood
, 2022 The success of any wood treatment process and the measure of protection conferred on treated wood are determined by the uptake and penetration of the treatment chemicals, in addition to the efficacy of the chemicals used for the treatment.
