Suggestive remarks for designing of experimental samples and trial devices to treat wood by pre-vacuumed immersion method
2019 - IRG/WP 19-40862
This study was conducted to test the impregnability of wood material according to the pre-vacuumed immersion process and to reveal the usability of cylindrical (plug) samples in impregnation experiments in addition to the cuboid or cubic samples. In this context, cuboids were prepared 30 mm in length, 20 mm in width and 20 mm in thickness, whereas plugs were prepared radially and longitudinally wi...

Performance of a water-borne stain on beech, spruce, MDF and OSB improved by plasma pre-treatment
2020 - IRG/WP 20-40897
Coatings are an important part of wood protection, especially for outdoor applications. In order to provide a good protection, protective coatings need to exhibit good adhesion, mechanical resistance, and weathering resistance. Plasma pre-treatments are an established method to increase the performance of existing coatings including those on wood and wood-based substrates. Moreover, plasma deposit...

The impact of pre-drying on treatment level variations of esterified solid wood analysed by X-ray densitometry
2023 - IRG/WP 23-40977
Wood modification requires homogenous treatment levels within the wood matrix to prevent insufficiently treated areas being subject to biodeterioration. Esterification of wood by citric acid and sorbitol can show differences in density caused by uneven chemical distribution during the curing phase and can be detected by x-ray densitometry. This study used density profiling to investigate the influ...
