From Wet to Preserved: Collecting Data of Waterlogged Wood Treated with PEG in Lanyan Museum and Study the Effect of Molecular Weight on Dimensional Stability
2025 - IRG/WP 25-11080
Waterlogged archaeological wood are most commonly unearthed in Yilan County, with over one-third originating from the Yilan Agricultural School site. This study aims to analyse the current state of conservation of waterlogged archaeological wood in Yilan County and hopes to properly alleviate the irreversible damage caused to the waterlogged archaeological wood after they leave the water layer. Ho...

Improvement and practical application of dry-type pressure treatment method
2025 - IRG/WP 25-20734
In years, the need for environmental consideration has been reaffirmed worldwide, and in Japan too, there is a demand for the expansion of the uses of wood in order to achieve a decarbonised society. So, there is also a need to develop and improve wood preservation treatment methods that overcome the weaknesses of wood and enable it to be used in a wide range of applications. The authors have impr...

Evaluation of 'Deep Penetration Treatment' for wood preservation
2025 - IRG/WP 25-20746
‘Deep Penetration Treatment’ (DPT) is a recently developed wood preservation technique in Japan designed to meet the preservation standards required for residential foundations. This method involves spraying a specially formulated solvent-borne wood preservative onto properly incised dried lumber. Despite being a non-pressure treatment, DPT achieves penetration levels comparable to conventiona...

Unlocking the Potential of Dairy Coproducts in Wood Modification
2025 - IRG/WP 25-30822
The production of dairy coproducts, such as whey (sweet or acid) and whey ultrafiltration permeate, has significantly increased in response to the rising global cheese consumption. Proteins found in by-products are purified for human nutrition. However, upcycling lactose, which is the major compound of cheese by-products, is more challenging due to the high cost of upcycling processes. Furthermore...

Relationship between changes inside moisture content of wood measured using temperature and humidity sensors and swelling and shrinkage
2025 - IRG/WP 25-41030
With the spread of mid and high-rise timber buildings, the long-term use of timber buildings is getting required more than ever. It is considered that measurement of the local inside moisture content of a wooden member is one of the useful methods for periodic health assessment of timber buildings. The aim of this research is to establish an easy estimation method of the local inside moisture cont...
