Natural weathering of sixteen wood species: Changes on surface properties
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021)
In this study, natural weathering behavior of sixteen different wood species was investigated under the same conditions in order to clarify the resistance against outdoor degrading agents regarding wood color, gloss, surface ...
An investigation of surface properties of thermally modified wood during natural weathering for 48 months
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018)
Weathering period and exposure conditions can affect the degradation rate of wood surfaces. Longer weathering exposure periods are more reliable for end-use performance evaluations, and therefore it is desirable to investigate ...
The effect of DMDHEU modification on physical and biological properties of parallel strand lumbers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2019)
In this study, the effect of dimethylol dihydroxyethyleneurea (DMDHEU) modification with four different concentration levels on several properties of parallel strand lumbers (PSLs) produced from poplar veneer strands with ...
Influence of tannin containing coatings on weathering resistance of wood: Combination with zinc and cerium oxide nanoparticles
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018)
In this study, influence of tannin containing coating combined with zinc and cerium oxide nanoparticles on color, gloss, surface roughness and macroscopic changes of Scots pine wood after artificial weathering was studied. ...
Influence of tannin containing coatings on weathering resistance of wood: Water based transparent and opaque coatings
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018)
The aim of this study was to improve weathering resistance of Scots pine wood by treating the surfaces with water based transparent and opaque wood coatings containing valex, mimosa and pine tannins. Samples coated with ...
Evaluation of dimensional stability, weathering and decay resistance of modified pine wood byin-situpolymerization of styrene
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2020)
In this study, polystyrene modified Scots pine (Pinus sylvestrisL.) wood was investigated upon artificial weathering, decay resistance, dimensional stability and water uptake properties. Polystyrene modification was carried ...
A natural flavonoid treatment of wood: artificial weathering and decay resistance
(Springer, 2020)
In this study, a natural flavonoid, chrysin, was used as a wood impregnation agent and evaluated in terms of artificial weathering and decay resistance of wood. For this purpose, Scots pine samples were impregnated with ...
Effect of process variations of polycaprolactone modification on wood durability, dimensional stability and boron leaching
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2019)
In this study, in situ graft polymerization of epsilon-caprolactone (CL) was studied for its potential to limit boric acid (BA) leaching from wood, and to increase the dimensional stability and biological durability of ...
Long-Term Leaching Effect on Decay Resistance of Wood-Plastic Composites Treated with Boron Compounds
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2018)
In this study, water absorption, thickness swelling and decay resistance of thermoplastic composites treated with three types of boron compounds was investigated. Spruce wood flour was treated with boric acid (BA), borax ...
The Wood Preservative Potentials of Valonia, Chestnut, Tara and Sulphited Oak Tannins
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
This study investigated antifungal properties of four different tannins as potential environmentally friendly wood preservatives. Scots pine wood samples were impregnated with 3, 5, 10, and 15% valonia, chestnut, tara, and ...
