Nanotechnology: Implications for the Wood Preservation Industry
2007 - IRG/WP 07-30415
Nanotechnology has the potential to greatly impact the wood protection industry through the creation of nanomaterials with unique properties. Nanobiocides may find applications as co-biocides, or may alter treatability properties such as penetration and biocide distribution. Nanocarrier delivery systems may increase the applications for organic biocides through controlled release of biocide, treat...

Application of Nanotechnology in Wood Preservation
2010 - IRG/WP 10-30542
Nanotechnology can enable the development of a wide range of new or enhanced wood-based materials and products that offer cost-effective substitutes for nonrenewable . Wood and other lignocelluloses are heterogeneous natural polymer composites with large variations in physical and chemical properties. These natural materials are composed of cellulose, lignin, and hemicelluloses. The potential use ...
