Fouling and Boring Organisms Deteriorating Various European and Tropical Woods at Turkish Seas
2010 - IRG/WP 10-10741
This study aims to investigate the diversity of fouling and boring organisms damaging wood material at Turkish coasts. Trials were carried out at six harbour sites throughout the seas surrounding Turkey. Wood samples were hanged down at a depth of six meters in the sea, for a period of one year. Identification of the organisms obtained from wood plates revealed the presence of five wood borer and ...

Effect of nanoparticle impregnation on the biological durability of wood
2022 - IRG/WP 22-30772
This study evaluated the efficacy of five different nanoparticles (zinc-oxide, zinc-borate, silver, copper-oxide, copper-borate) applied with different concentrations against the brown rot Coniophora puteana and the white rot Coriolus versicolor. The generally effective nanoparticle treatments were the combinations containing borate in its chemical structure. However, only zinc-oxide and silver na...
