Influence of plasma treatment on the coatability of wood primer with a topcoat for exterior use
2025 - IRG/WP 25-30828
The coatability of oil, or of solvent-borne alkyd resin wood primers with waterborne acrylic finish is the subject of much debate, but not much information can be found in the scientific literature on this topic. The aim of our study was therefore to evaluate the adhesion strength of the waterborne acrylic coating on oiled wood or wood with a solvent-based alkyd primer and to test the recoatabilit...

Enhancing strength, fire and biological resistance of wood through structural and chemical modification
2025 - IRG/WP 25-30831
Wood, a renewable and versatile biopolymer, has been a fundamental material to construct traditional and advanced composites for building construction, furniture, transparent composites, and various other applications. Despite its many advantages, including its aesthetic appeal, workability, and relatively low cost, wood possesses inherent limitations such as susceptibility to biological, flame an...

Effect of biodiesel-containing solvents on the performance of Copper Naphthenate and Pentachlorophenol: 118-month assessment and depletion analysis
2025 - IRG/WP 25-41022
Solvent systems are incredibly important in determining the performance of oilborne wood preservative systems and they can cause early failures in commodities treated with an otherwise effective preservative system. It is important to assess new solvent performance with oilborne preservative systems to ensure these systems continue to function with the changes. One solvent/preservative combination...
