Adhesion durability of the thinnest CLT in Japan treated by solvent recovery system

IRG/WP 19-40882

K Kawakami, W Ohmura

The purpose of this study is to clarify the adhesion durability of the thinnest CLT (36 mm thickness) in Japan impregnated with preservatives (azole neonicotinoid compounds (AZN)) under solvent recovery system so called “dry pressure process” for long-term durability. The adhesion durability tests were conducted in accordance with the Japanese Agricultural Standard (JAS) of Cross-Laminated-Timber (2013), and the peeling tests and the block shear tests were performed. As a result, the AZN treated CLT retained sufficient adhesion durability.
