Investigation of Nanocopper-Hygrothermally Treated Wood Properties
2013 - IRG/WP 13-40644
Nanometals with high thermal conductivity can be considered as modifiers, especially in thermal modification of wood. This study was aimed to investigate some physical and mechanical properties of nanocopper impregnated Iranian beach (Fagus orientalis Lipsky), which was hygrothermally treated. For this purpose, nanocopper solution (400 ppm) was used for impregnation process. Hygrothermal treatment...

State of Nanocopper Fixation by Steam-Densification
2016 - IRG/WP 16-40723
This study was aimed to investigate the effect of steam treatment before densification on leachability and dimensional stability of nanocopper impregnated poplar (Popolus alba). Wood samples were impregnated with nanocopper suspension (200 and 400 ppm) for 20 minutes under 4 bar pressure. Steaming process was done before densification at 150°C for 2 hour. Radial densification (33%) was done conse...
