Process Development in Continuous Wood Densification and the Influence of Ionic Liquids on Set-Recovery and Mechanical Properties
2025 - IRG/WP 25-30827
The densification of wood significantly enhances its mechanical properties, making low-density species more viable for high-performance applications. However, challenges such as set-recovery (SR) and production speed hinder large-scale adoption. This study investigates continuous surface densification using a custom-built belt press and examines the effect of chemical pre-treatment with ionic liqu...
